Oh, MyStars!
HOROSCOPE.
December a. Io2o.
December 3, 1870.

Venus and Mercury rule strongly
for good this day, according to as.
trolosy. Mars and Saturn are ad-
verse.
1t Is a sway most fortunate to
women. especially to those who earn
their livihss by writing or in cleri-
cal work.
Theaters should benefit from this
rule, which makes for Appreciation
and enthusiasm.
Merchants should profit from the
sway of stars that inclines wemen
to buy generously and even extrsv-
asantly.
All the arts should benefit from
this planetary government, which is
believed to increase the interest in
music and painting.
Entertainments that appeal to the
young should be most happily car
ried out under this rule, for the
stars encourage the lighter side Of
human nature to assert itself.
Again the seers declare that
women have the forecast of achiev-
ments through organization. They
-wfll gain great power In city and
State.
There is for actresses who have
attained high place the prophesy
that at least two great plays will
be produced.
Needlework Is to be popular
among women again, and 1t will en-.
gage the attention of all classes.
The opposition Of Uranus will
cause stirring scenes in, Congress
II Is prophesied, and there will be
bitter partisan attacks on public
policies.
The death Of a member Of the
Senate whose place is very promi-
nent IL prognosticated.
Cleanliness Is urged for cities, for
there seems to be a foreshadowine
of illness.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is may
have year of ups and downs tha.
Will lead to good results. Specu-
lation should be avoided. The young
will fall in love.
Children born on this day will be
generally successful in whatever
they undertake. Those born in the
morning will be luckier than those
born later.

WHEN TO ABOLISH MONEY!.
To the Editor. The w,sli,sts, Hsr,id:

To the Bliter, The washisstsa Herald:
The announcement by the govern
ment OF Soviet Russia that that
state is about to try the abolishment
Of money has aroused considerable
interest. individuals and newspa-
pers speculate as to the probable
operation OF the new moneyless sys-
tenn. The Sunday Star opinss that
any certificate or token used In lieu
Of money would really be money
itself; that people would trafiic in
these tokens; and that the individ-
ual Russian, true to human nature,
would try to beat the other fellow
out OF his tokens. Quite true; but
you are drawing q picture not Of .
moneyless system, but Of the COM
mon. everyday money system that
his existed since the days Of King
Midas and Judas Iscariot.
1t is, indeed. not easy to conceive
complete moaeyless system "a
system where everything Is dis
tributed free. Because only under
such a free-distribution arrange
ment could a true moneyless system
be possible. The vision of free res
taurants, free taller shops, free
street-car rides, free rent, etc.
seems more like a fairy-tale dream
than like the speculation Of an ae-
tual economic possibility.
Mans predatory instinct-human
nature. they call II in this ASPECT
has uatil new operated against the
feasibility Of q msReyless system.
But We should net lose sight Of the
fact that man does not prefer to
prey upon man. In the most prini-
tive stages Of barbarian society
man satisfies his needs by preyins
upon other creatures Of nature. II
is only under conditiens Of extreme
want that the Eskimo. or the South
Sea islander. or even the Anglo
saxon explorer, resorts to canni-
balism.
In a less barbarous society, with
the problem Of production only par
tally solved, men still hnd II neces.
sary to prey upon other men, al.
though not precisely by eating each
other UP. And 1t is feared tina,
In q moneyless regime the meA OF
today. true to their savage habits
Of old, would kill each other in q
scramble to gain access to the free
eatihshouses, the free clothing
stores. etc.
That accounts for the heaps OF
dead We see today at the entrances
OF our froe Libraries, free museums
news bulletin boards, parks, bath.
Ing beaches. speedways, campins
grounds and other services In which
the money factor has been abolished
Another illustration Of q partial
abolishment Of money is offered BY
empty bottles; when they were
scarce. many years ago. they had
to be guarded and charged for. whsr
they became sufiicientiy abundant
however. they were free, and thu
housskeeper had difnculty in max.
ing the milkman or the brewer,
wagon carry them away. Since the
war. bottles are again scarce, ahc
the grocer now asks for a scent
deposit on q milk bottle,
When there is plenty Of a thing
no money Ii needed for the dis.
tribution Of that thing. It follows
that IL there were plenty Of every.
thing no money would be needed
at all.
Solve the problem of production
make enough Of the necessaries OF
life for all-and 1t will be safe te
abolish money. N. @. STECKER.

" DO YOU KNOW
! OUR BIBLE?

Is And when Delilah saw that
he had told her all his heart, she
sent and called for the lords OF the
Philistines, saying. Come up this
once. for he hath showed me all his
heart. Then the lords Of the Phil
istines came up unto her. and
brought money in their hand.
10 And she made him sleep upon
her knees: and she called for /.
man, and she caused him to shave
on the seven locks of his head: and
she began to afflict him, and his
strength went from him
20 And she said. The PhIlistines
be upon thee. Samson. And he
avoke out Of his sleep, and said. i
Will 90 out as at other times before.
and shake myself. And he wist not
that the Lord was departed from
him.
81 But the PhilIstines took
him. and put out his eyes. and
brought him down to Cara, and
bound him with fetters Of brass;
ahd he did grind In the prison house.
% Hovbeit the hair Of his head
began to grow again after he was
shaven.
% Then the lords Of the Phil.
istihes gathered them together for
70 oher great sacrifice unto
Dageh, their ged, and to rejoice
for they said. Our god hath deliver
ed Samson our enemy into our hand
20 And when the people saw him
they praised their god: for they
said. Our god hath delivered intJ
our hands cur enemy, and the de-
stroyer Of our ceuntry, which slew
many Of US.
IS And IL came to pass. wher
their hearts were merry, that they
said. Call fer Samson, that he may
make us sport. And they called for
Samson out Of the prison house;
and he made them sport: and the3
set him between the pillars.
ss And Samson said unto the Lad
me that I may feel the pillars
whereupon the house standeth, that
I may lean upon them.
81 Now the house was full OF
men and women; ard all the lord,
Of the Philistines were there; and
there were upon the roof about
three thousand men and women
that beheid while Ssmsep made
sI.ort.
IS And samson called unto the
Lord, and said. o Lord God, remem-
Der me, pray thee, and strengthen n
me. / pray thee, only this once.

- And Samson took hold OF the
two middle pillars upon which the
house stood and on which Il was
borne up. Of the enc with his righ,

left.
80 And Samson said, Let me di,

SINK CONCRETE
BRIDGE PIERS
DURING WINTER
Work on Bismarck Mandan
Bridge Goes Steadily Ahead
in Spite of Conditions
NEW SUPERB NTENDENT

Winter weather will not stop work
on the Bismarck -Mandan bridge, if
plans of the Foundation company for
continuing the work are successful.
Some damage has been done to the
temporary structure Of the bridge
company by floating ice in the river,
but larger force of men are carrying
the work on just the same as in good
weather.
1t is the plan to continue the build
ing of the three piers, one on the
Mandan side, one on the Bismarck
side and one in the river, and to sink
the caisson of the fourth in the river.
The bridge company also has started
work on footing of the concrete ap-
proaches on the Mandan side. 1t Is
the hope Of the company to continue
this concrete work all winter.
c. w. Cubbage has assumed the
supervision of the work for the Foun-
dation company. Mr.. Cubbage CAM
direct to Bismarck from Jacksonville.
Fla, where he was working for the
Missouri Valley Bridge and Iron COM
pany. It was a marked change in
weather conditions for Mr.. Cubbage to
come from tropical climate into
the beginning of North Dakota winte'
weather, and he was feeling it pretty
keenly today. .'aa..
The construction company, which
had difficulty in getting labor during
the summer now has plenty OF men,
and is working a big force.
Much of the preliminary work con-
sisted of importing huge quantities
of materials to be used in the bridge
work. The materials are on hand, the
financing of the bridge work through
the winter is arranged and the WORK
will go ahead as rapidly as the wealth
or nermitS
