wood every day; Steadman. Allen.
and Clappa are doing this work and
they seem to be gaining on Gilbert
and Gallo, who make an effort to burn
everything in sight. But the big boiler
that furnishes steam for the saw-mill,
briok-mill, and electric light plant
needs lots Of fuel and Bill and Morris
feed it well. The farm crew is still
cutting Japanese cane; and, as soon as
The brushes come for Jacques new
stripper, we will begin to make syrup
again. Kemp is covering the cane
stubbles north Of the town and will
probably finish the Job today. He
and Dalton will then haul cane tops
fer mule feed. Walt Tread, Vernon,
and Belcher left for the rice ranch
with the two trucks to get rice. They
took lumber with them. and, Of course,
were loaded both ways. Com. Hart
and family, from MISSOURI, just ar
rived and will join us. They expect
TO go 10 the rice ranch and help King,
Fall, Van. and De Boer. This should
make a happy family at the new CO..
lony At the psychology meeting it
was again pointed out that when we
are looking for faults. we can find
them and when we are looking for
good things in either men Or institu-
tons. they can be found. People who
come here to find our faults can easily
find them. We have them and are
not ashamed to tell Of them-we also
have people around us who are glad to-
give all the transformation possible
but the question is: Are these misin-
formers capable of being judges Of al
movement they do not understand =?
Those who come here and MAKE
0OOD die TIC OIlCS WilOSG hearts are
in this movement; who desire to help
mankind, instead of taking advantage
Of their fellow workers. Those who are
suspicious, greedy, and jealous are not
yet ready for cooperation. and the
only way they can be made ready for
ii is thu their own efforts. Know thy
self first; then you will be able to car
~ yourself along the road to a real
brotherhood of man. Of course, we
don't all agree upon all things, but we
do agree to cooperate with each 9TH
er. in order to show the world better
system Of living, Yes, we all have our
faults, but we also have our virtues,
and we try to find the latter in you.
Look for the flowers along life's path
way; do the best you can to make the
world better, and you will find hear
ty welcome, lots of opportunity, and
good associates at Newllano- The folk 4
dancing class was held as usual at the
roof garden before the psychological
meeting, and several new pupils were
present.

Friday, Dec. p. No place could
have nicer weather than we are now
having, and just hope it will contin-
ne at least a month. You see am
wishing myself Happy New Year.
New apparatus is now being lined up
for the hotel, and we hope to soon
have ii installed and thus tighten the
load at particularly interesting place
(three times day.. Our laundry
work has also outgrown housing and
mechanical facilities, and we hope TO
enlarge and better equip that indus
try also. Our growing pains always
come on in the winter time, and the
very new people wonder how we get on
at all. Sometimes, when the pain is
too great, the C. NJ. gets the idea that
something must be pulled. Our print
shop has been having its rush for sew
eral weeks, and the building depart
ment is always in pain. The agricul-
tural group has chronic dose Of pains
that keeps it extremely nervous every
day in the year. But we like these
growing pains; they remind us of the
coed work that is being done every
day. There isn't single department
that hasn't grown and prospered IN the
last year. We have almost doubled
our membership and at the same time
increased our activities in every direc-
ton. The first Of the year, the G. M
expects to get out report for you 10
compare with last years report, and
vou can then judge somewhat Of our
progress. Now, how is this all done
simply because we have learned to CO.
