PLAN SCHOOL ON SHIPBOARD
SociaIistic Council of Bradford, Eng
land, Is Considering the Adoption
Of Remarkable Scheme.

When it became necessary to erect
new secondary school in Bradford,
the rich wool textile center of Eng
land, the usual estimates were asked
for, and reported, in the total sum of
100000.
Socialists, who have a considerable
majority on the Bradford education
committee, at once decided to break
free from tradition, and adopted the
idea of buying a suitable seagoing ship
for that amount, one big enough for a
couple of hundred children. These
children will be sent to sea for six
months or 12-months period, if sub
sequent suggestion is adopted.
1t is still to be settled whether the
ship schoolhouse will remain moored
in Bradford canal docks, only going to
sea as a freighter during vacation pc
RODS, or whether it would not be in
the interests of general education to
let the scholars see gimpses of for
eign ports, learning their languages
among natives, the ship at the same
time being loaded with cargoes that
would pay full maintenance expenses,
probably even of the boarding of the
children.

Cocoa butter, as nut butter is called

We wish to repeat something we
may have said before: Don't base
your vote on whether you like a
candidate personally. Try to put
your tastes and your likes and dis
likes out Of the question and de-
eide whether or not that person
will make good in the office to which
he or she aspires. Take little time
to consider your own inclination in
the matter and see if you are decid-
ing for or against the candidate on
the color of the hair or the size or
shape of the nose or some personal
feature or attribute, and if so, that is
not using good political sense. Per-
haps you have a personal liking
for the candidate and feel that you
would like to do that person a IA

decided to vote for him or her. That
is political folly. Get it on the right

ropes and moved the mighty stone to
its proper position. In a hollow cut
in the stone were placed ngots of

had not been melted in any furnace.
Win the Jews the Cornerstone was
considered an emblem of power, and
they also performed ceremonies at its
laying. In medieval times the rite
was taken up by the order of Free

down to modern days, the Masonic

belonging to the office. Consider
whether the person is likely to at
tend to duty when elected. Con-
slider whether that person wants the
office for personal advantage or to
accomplish a public service to all
alike. In deciding that question:
you should decide whether the per-
son when elected will be the servant
of all the people, regardless of politi-
cal affiliations, or whether the per-
son will merely seek to serve friends
and political associates and to OPP
pose or domineer over those who are
not friends. Those are important
things to consider in politics, and
unless we consider them and guage
our franchise upon them we shall
not be able to purify politics nor do
any good in "voting for the men,"
