Monday, June II. The getting Of
wood to-day was the Big job while the
ground is still too wet to work to an adj
vantage, SO | will take you on little
journey thru our store. The K. G. S.
Try. runs thru our town north and
south (nearly) and on the east side Of
the track stands our general store,
building about Is * 90 feet, with sew
eral wings and porches on the front
and sides and quite an extensive addi-
lion on the back that is our bakery,
Icold-storage house, cannery and where
the butcher renders lard and cures
meat. Quite change has just take9
place in this department as Comrade
Mcdonald is now in charge Of the
bookkeeping and buying, allowing
Comrade Gaddis and Mrs. Gaddis more
freedom to run our much-needed cam
ming department. The Gaddis family
has proved itself capable of any kind
of good work and always willing to do
anything that should be done. They
don't count the hours each day; they
do the task infront Of them and view
the results. The best | can say for
them is that they have proved them4
selves to be co-operators. Mcdonald is
new with US, but we have known his
worth for long time, and we are just
|tickled to load him up with lots Of work.
Above all people, Burton is willing.
Mrs. Sanders is our main lady clerk,
and she has shown her colors in fine
style; she loves work and is a very
pleasant and accommodating assistant.
At her spare moments she helps the
Gamers or any place she can. Mother
Shut wraps the bread when the bakers
are there with it and she also works at
the sewing department in her spare
time. Beulah Gaddis one Of our high
school girls is now making the Colony
candy. 1t is pure and wholesome and
many of our outside friends can testi-
fly to Beulah's ability to please the
pallet, H. Bell is our butch, peanut but
ter maker, store clerk, theatrical mana
yer and comic opera all in one. As a
worker Harry is always on the job and
will work any place but hitched up with
about him he is "willin'' for any old job

about him re is ''willin" for any old jbo

shop and we are safe in saying that Joe
can bake anything anyother baker can
and its fine. Whole wheat is ground
at our mill, baked III our bakery, and
sold at our store. II Is a real health
food and some day Joe and Dan will
make French pastry out Of whole wheat
flour. Joe also vulcanizes our auto
tubes while resting and Dan won't be
able to rest, (soon) Its a secret. Tx
IEwell is now helping at the cannery and
Truman Benthall puts in half a day at
the store. Yes. we have a good store
and are now anxious to fill our shelves
with LIano products, canned corn, bean
tomatoes, sweet-potatos and other veg
Ietables as well as, catsup, meats, pick
lies. peanut-butter, syrup and other
good things. We are learning to eat
ILlano products only, and cur children
Iset the lead. Later nothing but Llano
products or other cooperative produc-
led goods will be on our shelves. Some
day our store WILDE moved across the
railroad and on the the west side Of the
state highway into a new brick build
ling, but that is in the future and we feel
proud Of the one we now have and it
gives us excellent service. Comrade
Harris is now occupying one Of our
/ front windows with his jewelry shop
and optometrist stand .Comrade Harris
is an efficient worker at his trade and
a capable man at his profession and the
two all much to our Colony up-build-
ing. We are growing comrades and

I'VE should endeavor to get 1850 peo-

l25 people at $1,000. Nov, to you
who do not see the job to Be handled.
there is no difference at all, but to
Jus who have the practical end to tend
to, there is a vast difference. If 1850
people with their families paid in 500
each in cash and came to the Colony,
their 500 would not finance the fam
lily for year, let alone build them al
house to live in or provide tools for
them to work with. Nov, the Object

The old belief that man is fallen
angel AMI was kicked out Of the garden
Of Eden for partaking Of the forbidden
fruit is now pretty will explained, since
geology and biology are proving be-
yond controversy that man has been on
earth many thousands of years longer
than the time given for the Adam and
Eve story. 1t is proven conclusively
TOO that man has not fallen, but that
he is constantly rising TO higher plane
both of thought and of action. That
it is only by the inspiration Of this fact,
that he progresses. He learns by de-
grees of his ignorance. and also that
the one-essential obligation placed up
on him is. that he must learn about
himself. if he would survive. He gath
ers truth by experience, and knowl-
edge through investigation. This is
the price laid upon him for life here
and hereafter; if there is a future life,
he must live now to experience it. His
mental powers are continually demand
ing knowledge. and will not be stilled
without it.
