PRODUCTION FOR USE Face
to face with the problem of unem-
plOyment the organized workers are
also helpless, for they do not control
production or the natural resources.
Business is so organized that the So
called middle class is also helplessIy
dependent on the few who control the
means of production and exchange.
The means of life have gradually
passed into the hands of a compar-
atiYely few men, and the masses of
the people have been reduced to a
state of absolute dependence, this in
spite of universal suffrage and de-
mocracy. Whenever a certain profit
can not be realized production will
not be carried on, although the people
are starving. With the present speed ]
and efficiency goods are turned out
faster than they are demanded.
Thus, when the demands are met
or when a certain amount of products
have been stored away, the factory
closes down. The wage of the work
er is based on what it costs him to
live while he works. Even labor
unions base their demands for higher
wages on what it costs to live from
day to day. But no provision is made
for the periods of unemployment, and
no demand for constant employment
is made. Thus when the worker
is not needed to make profit for the
owner of industry he has no means
to live and he can no longer buy the
necessities he bought while he work
ed. This again decreases the de-
mand for products and causes fur
ther industrial depression.
It is evident that production for
use" is the only remedy. ga fair

can be no fairness in a system that

Labor unions should effectively de-

themselves take control of industry
and operate it according to the needs
of the people. Capitalists and rich
men should be asked and allowed to
do whatever useful work they could,
but should not be allowed to gamble
in the means of life or live off the
labor of others. A little manual labor
would do them much good and they
would have less stomach trouble.

Marriage of MIR. Cain and Miss
Armstrong.

Interesting to friends throughout
Georgia and South Carolina was the
marriage of Miss Myrtle Avenue
Armstrong and Capt. Richard Bee
Gain. which took place at the home
of the brides sister, Mrs. NJ. H.
Usher, of Hephzibah, Ca, Thurs
day noon. Invitations were limited
to a very few close friends aside
from the members of the large
family connections Of the bride and
groom, both of whom are related to
several of the leading families of
South Carolina. Rev. Robert E. L..
Harris, pastor Of the Hephzibah
Baptist church, performed the cere-
,mony.
The marriage unites two of the
most prominent old families Of
South Carolina prominent, socially
and in other ways The bride hav-
ing been for two years most sue
.cessful and popular trained nurse,
making friends wherever she went,
with her sympathetic, bright sunny
disposition.
Capt. Cain has been interested in
the Bailey Military College at
Greenwood, S. c., for number of
years. Aside from being captain of
the military exercise he holds the
position as quartermaster and COM
mercial professor.
The brides wishes were carried
out in the matter of simplicity. The
decorations were simple, yet very
effective, being artistically decorat-
ed in pink and blue flowers. Scores
of ferns added to the effect through
out the rooms. In the parlor, where
the ceremony was performed, the
decorations were all white, a beau
tiful arch being formed at one end of
the room, graceful ferns and white
roses formed pretty background.
After the ceremony and congratula-
tions received the bride and groom
led the way to the dining room
where an elaborate buffet luncheon
was served, after which the bridal
party left in an automobile for Au
gusta, where 'the bride and groom
boarded Pullman car for Atlanta.
They will visit the Panama-Pacific
Exposition and other points of in
terest in the west.

elling suit. 1t was most becoming

turn will be at home to friends in

is felt at the removal of the bride

returned, unopened. He tried to tele-

he heard, incidentally, that the
Worthingtons were preparing to go
to a summer resort. His hopes and
his appetite failed him. He could not
sleep. The third day he was walking
dejectedly along the street when a
hand clapped him heartily on the
shoulder. Clyde turned to face Roger
Payne, the girl who had blindfolded
him at the depot hanging on his arm.

The impetuous sprite fitted away
on her mission. An hour later she
was ushered into a room in the
Worthington home, where May sat.

the young lady whom she suspected
of being the cause of all her unhap-
