Getting Back

For two years now, we have listened to great
din created by all sorts and varieties of capitalist
apologists about getting back to the old status
that existed before the war. One would think that
the sole purpose of human existence was to move
backwards instead Of forwards. One, unacquainted
with the real facts as they existed before the war
might conclude, from some of the rosy pictures
painted, that "them was the happy days"-the
Golden Age of human existence. We have always
taken in this propaganda with sufficient quanti-
lies of proetarian salt and have arrived at sonic
conclusions OF our own.
The return to normalcy" has been attempted
by various routes but each one in turn leads
apparently in the opposite direction AT least
there has been no return Certainly we are much
farther from the place we started from four years
ago than we were when the armistice was signed
That is, we are farther away in our methods of
thinking and the conclusions we arrive at thru
the exercise Of these new methods which have
The toiler. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1919-1922, 1920-12-18

some how Or other displaced the old ways of
thinking about industrial and social phenomena.
We might stop here for moment before going
into what these new methods of thinking indicate,
to review the past, the glorious and "goden" past
which our capitalists are so anxious to get back
to.
A glance will show us an army of a million un-
employed as one of the outstanding features of
this past A million workers constantly reduced
to the stage of semi-starvation Besides the
chronic starvation endured by the unemploymed
we must also see the tragedies Of the employed
the slayshness of their conditions of employment
And we must not overlook other tragedies, Lud-
w. Bsbee, Everett. a whole host of holocausts
perpetrated upn the workers by capitalism for
profits. These few conditions eptomise the gen.
eral ensalvement of the masses to the overlords
of industry which obtained in this much vaunted
past to which we are directed as the goal of
humanity.
Intelligent workers do not want this past. They
sre thinking in other terms than of enslavement,
degradation unemployment and despair. They
are thinking in terms of workers control of in
dustry; of the appropriation of profit-taHing
capitalism of a real human life for workers in
stead Of that Of the subjection of the masses to
the dictates and will of robber few. And they
are organizing consciously with this new ideology
in mind, purposely organizing for the utter de-
struction of capitalism with it's every horror.
1t is precisely because workers are thinking in
these terms that capitalism views the future with
fear. With workers in this mental state, together
with the impossibility of capitalism providing the
necessities of life, omincus indeed, must be the
outlook to it. Capitalism's grip upon the thinking
apparatus of the workers is sackening. It's ges-
lures toward the past are as futile as they are
senseess.
Labor is going forward until complete control
crowns it's efforts.

IN RUSSIA.

New tannery operations have also started up
employing 5000 people. While Americans starve
under capitalism they may look upon the workers
of Russia providing necessities and comforts for
themselves and under their own control too.

TEACHER SHORTAGE
is STILL ACUTE

The teacher shortage remains a
menace to the public schools accord
ing TO preliminary reports made pub
lie today by the National Education
Association. Replies to questionnaires
sent out by the association have come
from all sections of the United States.
These reports show that in places
where teachers salaries have been in
creased one hundred per cent or more
the situation is nearly always satisfac-
tory But such places are compare
lively few, and in localities where sal
aries have been increased fifty per
cent or less the teacher shortage is
commonly greater than a year ago.
Rural communities are hardest hit.
Signed reports from superintendents
of many counties indicate that third
of their rural schools cannot open for
want Of teachers Tens Of thousands
Of schools will be in charge of teachers
who have had no professional prepar
:.tion and whose academic training
barely exceeds that Of the children
they teach.
Relief from this serious situation,
which imperils the stability Of Ameri-
can rural life, will be sought from the
next session Of Congress. Renewed
efforts will be made to obtain the pas
sage Of the Smith -Towner bill, which
creates a department Of education
with secretary in the Presidents
,abinet and provides federal aid Of
800 100000 for education

TWENTIETH CENTURY CLUB

On Monday, September 18th. the
Twentieth Century Club was delight
fully entertained for its last meeting
of the season by Mrs MeNairy. The
club, which was organized 2l years
ago, has had during the summer OF
1920 very interesting series Of
weekly meetings. as has been eyidenc-
ed by the large attendance throughout
/ the season.
The opening meeting on the first
Monday in July was held at the home
Of the president, Miss Jessie Hawley,
when the club was highly favored in
having one of its honorary members.
Mrs. Dorothy Garfield Fisher, give
some of her personal experiences in
France during and directly after tho
war Mrs Fisher devoted most Of her
time to giving a detailed account Of
wedding which she attended at Chany
econ after the signing Of the armis-
tice, in which she portrayed in her
own nimitable manner a most graphic
picture of actual conditions there, a
picture that Mrs. Fisher said was
typical Of conditions throughout that
Gev: stated area.
At one Of the July meetings very
great pleasure was given those pres
ent in having the program include sew
cal vocal selections by Mrs Ravi-
Brooks, another Of the clubs talented
honorary members.
Early in August under the auspices
ofthe Twentieth Century Club, DR..
VINCENT Raiv- Booth gave at the
Equinox Pavilion, an intensely inter
osting lecture on "Italy's Political
Aspirations"
One afternoon was given to the
re' ding of Drinkwater's Abraham
Li.coln," which was delightfully."- in
tpreted t by Miss Richards whose
reading has added so much to the en-
joyment Of the entire summers pro-
gr m.
On another afternoon given to mod
ern poetry, the club had the pleasure
tf herring some Of the reco.t work OF
our ltcal poets Of whom we are justly
proud Miss Sarah ~ Cleghorn's
Vermont in August" and Mrs. Mar
garet Steele Hard's "A Village Por-
trait" both Of which appeared in re-
cent periodicals, were especially en-
joycd. Mrs Burnham also gave fine
rendering of Vaehcll Lindsays Con
90" and Miss Cleghorn read selections
'ecm Masefeld's "Reyn I'd, the Fox"
At the last meeting the program in
,luded two stories, "Uncle Sam OF
Freedom Ridge" by Margaret Pres
oft Montague, and "The Backsliding
4 Miss Mlnda," by Mrs. Clarke Dool-
y. The club had the pleasure Of hav-
ng present at the last meeting two Of
& highly valued honorary members,
hc Misses skinner, of Chicago.
The greater number of the pro-
rams Of the summer have been given
o the reading and discussion Of two
ooks, Frontiers of Freedom" by Al
xander Powell, and In the Days of.
Sc Pilgrim Fathers" by Mary Caro-
inc Crawford

Kelley Stand Saturday.
The old tu- pike road over the
Greer Mountain rargc from Arlington
to '.re West river valley has been neg.
lectei until il can hardly be considered
safe for travel Both in this county
and in Windham county thre are many
people Interested in keeping this old
turnpike open
State Highway Commissioner Stod-
dard b. Bates is to be down Saturday
and will look this road over. A party
( ON Windham county and party
from Bennington county are TO meet
Commissioner Bates at the Kelley
Stand in the east part Of the town OF
SUNDERLAND at 1890 next Saturday,
September 25th, and all persons inter
ested are invited TO join this gather
ing.
II the day is pleasant il will be a
regular picnic party Those who go
are expected TO carry their lunch and
join ia an out door dinner at the Kel-
ley Stand with those from Windham
county at l o'clock.
This old turnpike which needs 1T
tention is located in the towns of Sun
derland and Stratton, both Of which
are email and poor mountain towns,
1t is not the expectation Of the pro-
moters Of the Saturday meeting that
a first-class highway be built over the
old turnpike, but they are earnest in
the belief that the road should at least
be kept 50 il can be used.
For the gathering and picnic dinner
next Saturday the Bennington county
party has the best of the bargain as
the road up to the Kelley Stand is in
fair condition and much better than
the Windham county side.
The old Kelley Stand is one OF the
most beautiful spots in the Green
Mountains and the picnic and road
ought to be a success The
Stratton Mountain Club which is pro
noting the gathering extends an in

CHAPTER XVII.

Events followed each other with re-
freshing rapldlty. While the crew OF
the big locomotive on the crossing
busted themselves getting up steam.
Sexton and Jules Rondeau tolled at
the loading OF the discarded boiler and
heavy castings aboard two Hat cars.
by utilizing the steel derrick on the
eompany's wreeklng car, this task was
completed by noon. and after luncheon
the mogul backed up the main line
past the switch into the Laguna
Grande yards; whereupon the switch
engine kicked the two fiat cars and the
wrecklng car out of the yard and down

we're promptly unloaded. The police
watched the operation with alert inter-
est but forebore to interfere in this
