SUMMARY.

The epoch OF civilization began with the invention
OF the phonetic alphabet and the adoption of the Solo,
mic Law.
The middle age Of civilization began with the in
vention OF the steam engine
The upper age of civilization began with the appear
ance of the electric motor and still continues.
We have now traced the development of industry,
and hence the racial history from the club in the hands
OF the primitive savage upward to the hand tool of
the craft age and onward through the shop factory,
partnership company, corporation trust and intena,
tional syndcaes As industry developed the class an
tagonism become ever more pronounced and the class
lines clearer, and now are at the parting Of the
ways,
The question confronting us now is; shall industry
develop along the lines desired by the class conscious
element of the workers, into socially controlled
mechanism for the service of all mankndi
Upon the answer to this question depends the name
Of the coming epoch oil history

Gordon sanitaire of the imperialistic
world and arrived in Sweden, where it
was given royal welcome by the toilers
of that country. "The Politiken" of

INTENSE FEELING
AGAINST ENGLAND
STILL EXISTING

KEEL, Feb. 2S.-The intense feel
ing still existing in Germany against
England was manifested toward some
British officers who accompanied the
interallied commission - control or
recent visit here. The town was
crowded with German sailors who
were clean and smartly dressed. They
passed by with averted faces, but
civilians on the contrary showed the
keenest interest and stared at the
visitors. occasionally remarking "Gott
strafe England" The British visitors
took no notice and walked on, fol-
lowed by train of small boys, many
Of whom repeated in a childish treble
"Gott strafe England" at intervals.
The shopkeepers, however, were
quite friendly and trade became very
brisk
Further evidence Of the present at
titude of the Germans was forthcom-
ing at the Kiel canal, where the chill
dren gathered on the banks invariably
shouted out the old cry Of "Gott
strafe England"
One man cried. "We will have you
yet" while the final effort at the
close of the return journey was that

VERITABLE WAVE OF
GAMBLING SWEEPING.
OVER SPANISH CITIES

MADRID, Feb. 2s.-This country,
the men and women Of which have
the reputation Of being willing to put
their last peseta on some game OF
chance. has never witnessed such a
wave of gambling as that which II
now flowing over the country and
has been in existence since the con-
clusion Of the war. Casinos have
been erected on the borders of the
larger cities, so as not to interfere
with the concessions in the cities.
These gambling houses are crowded
during the afternoons and evenings
and until late in the morning with
men and women playing games in
which the odds against them make i;
impossible for any but the extreme
ly lucky to win.
The newspapers have started a
campaign against this gambling. in
Madrid especially, where, as one
newspaper puts it, "men and women
are .pauperized in gambling houses
which operate under government IL
cense, and then turned on the streets
to beg"

SMOKE SCREEN SECRET
HAS BEEN DISCLOSED
British Navy Makes Public
One Of Its Best Secrets

LONDON, Feb. 2S.-The secret Of
the smoke screens used with such
great success by the British navy in
the raids on Ostend andAZeebrugge u
definitely disclosed. They were pro-
duced from an acid, which had to be
burned in the presence of sufficient
amount Of water vapor, otherwise the
smoke produced, even over the sea, il
liable to be somewhat thin on a dry
day
Commander Brock, who sacrificed
his life in the assault on the German
defences at the Belcian ports, devised
the plan to feed the acid in a fine
spray into the funnel of destroyer,
where the temperature was sufficient
to- yaporize the acid. and the water
vapor present completed the forma-
ton Of the cloud.

SECOND SUIT FOR
DAMAGES Is FILED
RESULT FIRE LOSS

The City of Brownsville has been
named defendant in a damage suit in
the amount of $4,000 which has
been filed in the district court by
Florencio Saenz Of Mercedes. The
action is the outgrowth Of fire on
the night of October IL, 1919, in
which three residence properties fac
ing on Washington square were
burned, and is the second suit of its
nature to be filed.
The Saenz property was occupied
as day nursery and baby welfare
home, under the auspices of the
Charity Home, and as a girls club
by War Camp Community Service.
The other property destroyed was
owned by Teofilo Crixell, who has
sued the city for $4,000.
In both the Crixell and Saenz pcti-
tions the loss is blamed to improper
outside wiring of the houses on the
part of the city. On theother hand,
however, city firemen claim that the
fire started on the inside of the Crix-
ell residence, and, furthermore, state
that it would have at least been very
improbable that an outside fire could
have gained headway enough to de-
stroy the property, because Of the
heavy rains just preceding the fire
