Daily Poem
THE VISION SPLENDID

THE VISION SPLENDiD
o City of God! 20 vision most SPLEEN
did!
Oh! When shall we see thee estab-
lished on earth?
When shall this old worlds long
travail be ended,
And out of its anguish a new
brought to birth?
We look and we long for that day,
resplendent,
When wrongs shall be rightcd, and
tyranny cease,
When righteousness, love and justice
transcendent
Shall ensure to mankind the bless
ings of peace.
When truth on the throne shall once
more be regnant,
When poverty's shame shall vanish
away
We watch ard we wait, for that day
SO pregnant
With promise so splendid, the flu
ture to sway.
The sages and seers and prophets
have spoken,
In voices long stilled, of this time
that shall be;
Yet age follows age and men ask us
the token
Or sign of its coming-Give faith,
Lord, in Thee!
Our spirits grow faint and doubts are
arising;
o Lord, we are longing Thy foot
steps to hear,
Gene quickly, We pray Thee, the
faithless surprising,
Thy promise redeem and to all men
appear.
Yet let us not stand with hands idly
folded,
Content with our hope, our gaze
fixed on the skies.
But grant we each may be fashioned
and moulded
For service most holy and true sac
rifice.
That so by earnest and loyal en-
deavor
We may hasten the day when those
things shall be;
And from the whole earth, most
Blessed For Ever,
Shall praise without ceasing arise
unto Thee.
E. FRANK MILLER.

worthwhile ideas have been presented and fresh
inspiration has been given those engaged in bust
ness in this community. 1t is quite in order to
say something about Frank Stockdale while dis
cussing this matter. 1t may be taken for granted
that his services would not be in such wide demand
were he not especially equipped to perform expert
duty as business physician. Those who have
enjoyed and benefited by his practical talks have
come to esteem him most highly as a straightfor-
ward chap with mission and the nerve to perform
that mission Iii common experience that we
profit by the exchange of ideas and this week has
again demonstrated the fact that it pays to keep up
with the times and get in touch with the best thought
Of the day whether ii be in the line of merchandise
ing or literature or art. Anyway, Mr.. Stockdale
is possessed Of that happy faculty of absolute
franbness and sincerity added to which is genu-
Inc love for his fellow men and thoughtfulness for
their welfare.

About 100000 new dollars prob
ably will he coined with the date of
1921 and after that the dollar will
carry the date of the year in which it
is struck off. Efforts are being made,
it was explained, to complete the coin
age of Mt least 100000 of the new dol
lars with the 1921 date in order to
avoid II scarcity of the coin which
would result in a premium being placed

F0xpark Man is
Under Arrest
Charged With Arson In Connection
With Recent Fire Which De-
strOyed Burns Store.

Sheriff Trabing of Albany county
has announced the arrest Mt Denver of
Ben Hess, a merchant at Foxpark, on
the charge of having caused the fire
at the NJ. Il. Burns general store at
Foxpark on Sunday morning, January
g, and Mrs. Hess, apprehended at Lar
annie, is being held as a witness, hav-
ing been permitted her liberty until
the case has been heard. Hess is to
be brought back to Laramie and will
be given a preliminary hearing. Mrs.
Hess was questioned concerning the
matter by County Attorney Patterson
and Sheriff Trabing, and denied all
knowledge Of the cause of the fire.
Just what evidence the officers have
against Hess was not stated.
The fire was discovered about 4
O'Clock in the morning, and the build
ing was just about destroyed, together
with the stock of general merchandise.
valued at $1,000, a beaver coat belong
ing to Mrs. Burns, worth $500, and
$500 in cash which belonged TO the
SAOit NV hdu bttH nlutitH IOE safely
by Mrs. Burns. The fire was discov-
cred i'm a shed at the real of the store,
built of pine lumber, and in which
there had never been n fire for heating
purposes. The owner was awakened,
but before he could save anything of
great value the store was a complete
loss. Mrs. Burns was away from home
that night, and as she was the only
one who knew the hiding place of the
cash, 1t could not be found and went
up in smoke.
Hess is said to have left Foxpark
Sunday in his automobile, on his way
to Denver. intending to go to work for
the Moffat railroad at some point out
side of that city. It is believed that
his wife came to Laramie with the in
%tcntion Of going on L Denver to Join
her husband. Mr.. Burns was rendered
i'll by exposure, fighting the fire in his
bare feet, and while thinly clothed.
Efforts We're made to stop the fire by
the use OF snow, but these efforts were
futile,-Laramie Republican.

While our terms of credit in the past have been

many people have repeatedly ignored our state

Cooperative Harmony
Results From Self Control

Get onto your lob" IS the slogan at
Llano Colony. We have only an ideal,
but We are studying and planning and
thinking day and night TO transfer that
ideal from the domain Of transcenden-
talism 10 the plane Of material actual
ration.
Ii is not mere bread and butter
proposition that this Colony is engag-
ed IN. Practical experience Of many
years has shown that the problem is
pre-eminently psychological one; that
the mind and the heart must be right
before a person can intelligently CO.
operate with satisfaction to himself and
his associates in voluntary co-opera-
tive enterprise. If a person aspiring
to membership in such a group has no
other ideal except of getting the good
things Of life for himself without con-
corning himself what happens to any
one else. he has not as yet reached the
right mental attitude or the right kind
of feelings for the rest of the folks.
The job Of fitting himself for coop
erative living is up to every individual
and it must be done from within. as
it never can be brought about from
without. All the selfish and anti-so-
cial traits must be starved out. They
must disappear. and you must become
a new kind of man or woman, willing
to do the right thing spontaneously to
everyone concerned.

THE OBJECT OF NEWLLANO'S
COOPERATIVE EXPERIMENT

Perhaps many readers of the Col
onist do not realize the full scope Of
the cooperative work that the people
at Newllano are engaged IN, 1t is not
a mere group enterprise for the pur-
pose Of improving the economic con-
dition IF the people devoted 10 the es-
Establishment Of the different industries
and activities here. If only the i'm
mediate personal advantages Of the
resident co-operators were aimed at, a
great deal Of the propaganda carried
on might readily be dispensed with.
Such, however, is not the aim or
the purpose Of the Llanoites. The
object is to demonstrate the right me-
thods Of human fellowship and to es-
tablish righteous economic institutions
that can be expanded all over the
world.
The economic and social methods
Of Newllano are intended to appeal to
the reason and good common sense of
the people; to awaken in them the
desire to initiate and to adopt the same
methods and to prove TO themselves
that they are the very best that up
TO the present have been discovered.
The right system Of cooperation can
not satisfactorily be imposed from
without. Il must be Initiated and de-
yeloped because the people who en-
gage In the task are impelIed from with
in to take it up and devote their lives
to its establishment.
AT last weeks psychological meeting
two letters were read. One from a
friend in New York City. laying bare
the terrible distress Of hundreds Of
thousands in that modern Babylon.
The other one from former coIonist
who is absent from the Colony and
feels something lacking at his present
location the spirit of comradeship that
permeates every activity at Llano Col
ony.
AT LIano Colony no purpose is har-
bored that will be inimical OF detrimen-
tai to the well-being and the just rights
and needs of any one. Our motives
and methods are right and in harmony
with the laws Of nature as far as known
to the membership. The spirit of help
fulness prevails; and there is no dis
position to impose the best system
of cooperation on people who have
not yet reached that plane Of develop
ment.
