ART THOU THE SAME7

Art thou the same. thou sobbing winter
The same that rocked the cradle of the
May,
That whispered through the leaves of
summer noon,
And swelled the anthem of the full
grown year?
Art thou the same. thou piteous. moan
ing thing,
Beating against the pane with ghostly
hands,
Wailing in agony across the waste
Art thou the same-the same?
Art thou the same, thy poor heart
bruised and faint,
Treading thy way along through twi-
light gloom?
Art thou the same that sang to greet
Caroling in the sunlight like bird,
Too glad for speech, too glad for aught
but song?
Art thou the same that prayest but for
night.
For night to come and ease thee Of thy
Art thou the same-the samef
Thou winter wind that wailest through
the night.
Thou broken heart too crushed to moan
or cry,
There will be rest even for ye, poor
thing,
And more than rest-a Joy new washed
il tears;
For through the portals Of the fading
year
Lie sunny hills and fields fresh clad in
green,
And after night who knows what day
may bring?
And ye unchanged the same-the samef

Methods of Education Too
Much a Cramming Process

Everyone admits that the methods
of modern education are far from per-
feet; that the whole system is too
much a examining process, too little
that "leading forth" Of the individual
mind which is implied in the etymol-
ogy of the word, declares a writer.
Too often the creative Imagination of
the child is not only not developed-it
Is deliberately snubbed and stifled.
And even his critical faculty is dis
couraged by the average teachers au-
thoritative attitude, which repeats day
after day: "Your opinion is of no i'm
portance; So-and-So addison, for ex-
ample) has been admired by two CEN
turtles Of competent judges, and it be-
hooves young people like you to accept
their opinion"

Communism Was Tried Out
Centuries Ago by Little
Republic in Central Asia

In the heart of Asia centuries ago
Manchu merchants discovered three
large auriferous regions which the Pc
kin government Immediately claimed
by forcing thousands of laborers to
work the mines. Most of these men,
when possible, fled and hid in the
mountains and forests surrounding
them. AS the government kept refill
ing the deserted ranks the colony in
the hills also grew and formed it.
self into federation, whose leaders
were to protect the lives and supply
the means of livelihood for the rest.
This little republic was founded
upon the shores of the River Centunga,
and is the earliest communist expert
ment known. All the fruits of labor
and production were for common use.
1t was absolutely prohibited that any
one withhold from the commune any
part Of the gold which all were occu-
pied in mining; It was placed to the
credit of the whole colony and depos-
tied with the association, to be used
for anyone in need. Everyone had to
work to his utmost capacity, and char
ity or begging was unknown.
Any disobedience to the laws was
punishable by death. This sentence
was pronounced by committee of
twenty-five, elected by universal suf-
frage, as well as two judges and the
two presidents of the commune.
