Alleging that J. o, Welday Is guilty

is recognized exponent and lee.
turer on Socialism throughout the
state" five out of nine members of
the Oklahoma city school board refus.
ed TO re-employ him for another year
as principal. His university training
and success as an instructor are adj

The action of the present board is
the result of three-year campaign
against Welday by small but fnan-
cially powerful group of business
men," who assert that anyone who
belongs to the Socialist party is prac-
tically an anarchist, and of the efforts
of the Catholic organization (the
Knights of Columbus.) This latter or
ganization has carried on an unceas-

WORKER is VICTIM

The Jeffry Manufacturing company
Columbus, o., has plan whereby the
worker reports for work at $3.50 a.
M; IL he has a card in his rack he
will do the job: the operation may
consume three hours or more.
In either case when the job is com
pleted, he returns to his home, which
might have a plaster on it held by the
company's building and loan associa'
ton.
If there is no card in his rack he
vacates as soon as possible, only to
repeat the performance the next
morning.
If he is lucky in the game, he may
secure sufficient work in a week to
pay his car fare and buy few pounds
of beans from the company store.

SOCIALIST OPPOSES AN ExPAN
SION OF LAND; THREATENED
BY OTHERS

German papers, giving full reports
of the debate Saturday In the German
reichstag, tell of vigorous demands
by the conservative and nationality
eral leaders for substantial territorial
expansion as the price of Germany's
victory.
Strong opposition to these senti
ments came from the Socialist speak
ers as consequence of violent pro
tests Of DR.. Liebknecht, who seems tc
have returned from the front to par
ticipate in this debate.
DR.. Liebknecht was subjected to a
hostile demonstration, many of the
deputies threatening to throw him out
of the chamber.

@. I. Has man a legal right to
turn out horses and sheep on the
road and let them run, or should the
owner keep them on his own land?
This Is a district where cows are al
lowed to run.
2. What Is a lawful fence. Does It
need to be built so as to turn sheep
and hogsf g. n.
A. Horses may run at large the
same as cows may. AS to sheep, they
may run at large on public land, but
it is against the law for them to enter
upon private land whether enclosed or
not. But swine may not even go upon
the public road unless in the charge
of herder. 1t is not necessary to
build fences to turn sheep or hogs, in
order that they be legal.

100000 a year to properly raise her
three-year-old son, John Jacob Aston

years ought to be sufficient, but Mrs
Aston protested that the high cost OF
living made it impossible to make
ends meet on any such sum.

everything is shifting around. Moth
ing is as it used to be, and, we hope,
nothing will be as it is. 1t does not
necessarily mean that your great
grandfather was an ape, although you
might be an ass. Darwin framed up
the theory of organic evolution
through natural selection. He at
tempted to show that man, T. r. for
example, beginning as an insignificant
worm, is the result of countless ages
of painful progress. We know that
this must be mistake, as regards T.
r. Other incompatible fatheads I'M
der the influence of strong toddy gaz-
ed into the heavens and imagined they
saw the stars evolving. Then whole
swarm of evolutionists infested the
continent of Europe and the Br. Isles.
They set everything to evoluting,-
stars, language, women's clothes,
ideas, ct cetra ad finem.
Marx Saves Rent.
So it came to pass that there was
Karl Marx. He had been living in
the Carnegie public library of Lon
don for thirty years to save rent. Al
so he never shaved. Fred Engels was
getting tired of grub-staking him and
Mr.. Marx was fearful of losing his
meal ticket unless he produced re-
re SITTING h<,y~
day in his customary place with his
feet atop the radiator gazing gloomily
down Threadneedle street, and re-
lflecting bitterly on his tough luck, an
idea flashed into his mind Nov
there is Charlie Darwin" he soliloquiz-
ed, "he will undoubtedly make name
for himself when he gets his theory
on the market Why can't l evolute
lsomething?"
About the only thing he could find
lying around loose to which no one
had stuck his trade mark was society.
True Hegel had experimental with it.,
but the most Hegel had done was to-
point out that, to be in style, society
should evolute like everything else
He had tried to make it evolute but
the darned thing wouldn't spin. Marx,
he of Jewish extraction, being also
something of an economist, shrewdly
guessed that he would have market
able commodity of high potential
value if he could succeed in making
society evolute. Moreover, he saw
what Hegel HAD not SEEN Hegel had
failed to supply the motive power to
keep society moving along. Mr.. Marx
then ambled to the telephone and CALI
ed up the store to hear what EngeIs
thought about it. Engels admitted
that it was about the best thing that
could be done, and from that time for
ward unil his death Marx unburdened
himself of accumulated wisdom that
will puzzle mankind unto eternity.
Marx had already a fairly accurate
idea of the type of engine to attach
to society to keep it in motion. He
labeled it the Glass Struggle. Some
time in the future we will explain to
our expectant readers something of
the workings of this intricate machine.
In the meantime we remain,
