A RARE DAY-A PERFECT
PICNIC.

The most thoroughly enjoyable pic
mic ever held by the Reds of Everett
was held last Sunday at Comrade Ill
mans beautiful ranch. Such day,
Never was there q day nearer perfee
ton.
Nearly n thousand people were
there. Mostly Socialists, of course.
Which proves that Socialism is los
ing out.
Probably never again will Comrade
lllman's beautiful little ranch present
such scene Just imagine dozens of
families with their lunches spread out
under the shade of the fruit trees;
young people bathing or boating on
the lake; children too numerous to
mention playing on the grass; groups
standing here and there, earnestly dis
cussing the issues of the day, and you
have a mental picture of our 1913
picnic. Hundreds of yards of gay
bunting entwined among the trees and
about the porches gave the gathering
n festive appearance. We are largely
indebted for this part of the decora-
lions to Ben Mall1son OF Hartford. Ben
is not a Socialist yet, but he will be
il he assists in the preparations for a
few more Socialist picnics.
Comrade DeQuer was the speaker
OF the day. His speech was received
with enthusiastic applause. Short
talks were then made by some of the
county candidates.
People came from all parts of the
county in all kinds of conveyances.
Were it not that Comrade Illman's
farm Is a spacious one, there would
not have been room for such a large
variety. The Everett visitors who did
not so by private conveyance were
carried back and forth in large auto
trucks hired for the occasion, which
was by no means the least enjoyable
part of the day.
The refreshments were what would
be expected as they were in charge of
the women comrades of Everett. De-
licious is the word.
The committee in charge Is to be
complimented upon the perfection of
the plans. There was not single
incident to mar the enjoymane of the
days arrangements. Everybody was
happy and satisfied. And last, but not
least, the affair was a financial sue
cess beyond expectation.
1t goes without saying that we all
deeply appreciate the hospitality ex-
tended us by Comrade and Mrs. III
man. We hope that this will not be
the last time we will be given the
keys to this beautiful little domain.

MEN AND WOMEN TEACHERS

The total number of women teach
ers in the public schools of the Unit
ed States was estimated for 1913 at
about 412,800. The men in the schools
number over 100000 or about Fl per
cent of the total. This is larger pro-
portion of men teachers than is usual
ly supposed, for it is about one in five.

of room for lowering the cost of farm
products to consumers and at the same
time largely increase the cash income
per farm without increasing farm pro-
duction.
This condition is undoubtedly a
marketing problem, which will have to
be solved by better organization of
farmers and improved methods of
marketing
when, as the result of such organ
ization and improved methods, the
price of farm products can be main
tanned at a higher level without in
creasing the cost to consumers, farm
ers will be justified in increasing the
output of their farms with fair pros
pect of realizing a reasonable profit
on their investment of time, labor and
money, which in the aggregate is
enormous.
Under Socialism all waste of time
and effort will be eliminated; then
both farmers and artizan will receive
the full social value of their labor.

NEWS FROM SUMAS.
Sumas, Wash, Aug. 8, 1914.

Sumas, Wash, Aug. 8, 1914.
The Washington Socialist:
Comrade Editor will write you a
few lines to let you know that Local
Sumas is still alive. A few weeks
ago the comrades decided to have d
series of lectures, given at their hall,
preceding the regular campaign lee
lures. We invited Comrade Waynick
of Bellingham, our county secretary,
to deliver the first of this series, and
we feel assured that we made no mis-
take when we secured him first on
our list. Date was made with him for
the evening of July %. We adver-
tised this lecture as extensively as
possible under short notice. A fairly
good crowd, was out to welcome Com
rade Waynick. Perfect order was
maintained throughout the meeting.
And all of his points were met with
hearty appreciation. Consequently, a
greater interest was aroused than had
been previously manifested. Party
members, also many others that are
not Socialists, took great interest in
preparing for the next lecture to be
held on August /. State Secretary
l.. e. Katterfeld was to deliver this
lecture. Comrade Waynick had
aroused their enthusiasm to such
degree that a well filled house greeted
l.. e. Katterfeld AS he earnestly told
them How to get what they wanted"
many expressions of applause greeted
him. Clear and logical on every point,
convincing in his arguments, he is
well able to cope with capitalism. He
is well worthy of the position he holds
in the party, that of state secretary,
and other locals would do well in Sc
curing him for a lecture.
F'raternally,

Thanksaivino IN the Home.


Thanksgiving. our one truly Ameri-
can holiday, viii soon be with rs. and
we will all be celebrating turkey
day."
It is indeed long cry from that first
day of Thanksgiving as spent by the
Pilgrims to our modern festival. which
to the casual observer seems to be a
congIomeration Of chrysanthemums
and football!
But the great mass OF homemakers
are still true to the best traditions Of
the day and do make it a festival OF
reunion and true happiness
SIn large cities there is the unfortu-
nate tendency of many to eat their
Thanksgiving dinners in hotels. In
deed. it is almost a fad. and people
crowd the most luxurious restaurants
on that day. This seems deplorable
tendency, but the custom is confined
only to our larger cities. and in the
great mass of our American homes we
are still allowing the true home spirit
to permeate our festival.

 The Douglas Messenger company is no more. The .proprietors, J. c. Le- roy and H. Day, were given 60 days in jail for having a general mix.up in their offices. When the officers raided the place a homemade hop pipe and other smokers articles" were found and seized. On the promise of the men to leave town within twenty.four hours, the sentence was suspended.
 Ordinarily a Bnlikin is supposed to bring good luck, but the reverse was the case with two hilarious miners, who playfully annexed one of the little gods last Saturday night. They could not even get drink on it, and to com plete the tragic affair, Judge Henson fined one of them $10 and the other S5. The fines were paid.
