EVERYTHING IS READY FOR THE
FOURTH ANNUAL GIRLS TOURNEY

hopd that this year there will be an
even number OF teams entered so as to
do away with the drawing back In OF
ono Of the losers. This was encountered
last year and as luck would have 1t the
Wheeling champions Of 1920 were the
odd team and so they played loser or
the first round. They received much
unjust criticism from this and SO 1t -
hoped that this occurance may be avoid
ed this year.
The girls will be met at Ravenswood
by a committee who will BIO in charge
Of the tournament and when they arrive
on the ground Of battle they will re-
ceive the key TO the city from Mayor
McKown. While the team are the
guests Of the people Of Spencer, they
will every convenience that can be AZ
fordcd them. They are Quartered In tho
private homes and are carried around
the city by machines which they have
at their disposal any time Of the day or
night. All the business houses and tho
Country club are thrown open and many
social affairs will be arranged In their
honor. After tho finals on saturday
evening there Will be a big dance at
the Country club with a first class or
chestra furnishing the dance music.
This Is always the climax to tho big
event as It gives all tho girls chance
in the social side OF tho classic for un-
til team Is eliminated It's players are
not allowed to partake in anything but
training.
There will he a special train leave
Spencer early Sunday morning 30 a. to
have all the teams In Ravenswood in
plenty Of time to make tho connections
for the northern and southern part OF

The compliments of the season to all
The readers Of the Colonist. Another
year is about to come to its close and
disappear in. the abyss of time. And
the question naturally arises: Have
you made the best possible use Of the
past fifty-two weeks, and helped to
advance the best interests of the people
in general. We at Newllano have made
splendid progress, and the success we
have achieved is proof positive that the
methods Of integral cooperation, prac-
ticed here. if adopted abroad, will be
found highly beneficial to the people
who engage in it, The spirit Of mu-
tual helpfulness, of altruistic co-opera-
tion has proven itself at Newllano as
the best method Of economic interrela-
ton. This is the good news that we
want to disseminate throughout the
wcrId. Cooperation will bring peace
TO the world and eliminate the causes
of trouble. A happy new year to you

the capitalist press that our war ships
are sent to the Dardanelles to protect
American interests" put it down as a
lie. The American people own no
thing there. and. therefore, they have
no interests to protect in the Darda-
nelles.
In this case American interests y
means the interests Of FEW Amer
namely the American internal
tional bankers.
Just as these International bankers
operated through Woodrow Wilson to
fool the American people by the pre-
text of destroying Kaiserism' and
making the world safe fo- demo-
cracy'" SO they operate through con-
troll of the capitalist press and conceal
their motives by telling you that our
war SHIPS are sent to the DardanelleS
to PROTECT AMERICAN INTER-
ESTS.-
Be wise enough to understand that
as one Of the common people you have
not one interest in common with inter-
national bankers. Therefore. never
believe anything that they tell you,
neither through presidents, diplomats,
nor capitalist press when capitalist in
terests are at stake.

COOPERATION DOES IT

Nothing is ever settled until it is set
tied right. The right of situation can
never be determined by the ability Of
infIicting the maximum of violence up
on anyone who may protest against
conditions imposed upon him that are
detrimental to his well-being and that
detract from his happiness. A right
course of action for human being
from the natural scientific viewpoint
can only be one that is harmless to
himself and others not engaged in
harming any one else; but, on the con-
trary. engagement in useful activities
that are beneficial to themselves and
to others. We think Abraham Lincoln
pointed out what is right in human re-
lations when he said: The habits of
our whole species fall into three great
classes: useful labor. useless labor, and
idIeness. Of these, the first one is
meritorious, and to it all the products
of labor rightfully belong. But the two
latter, while they exist. are heavy PEN
sioners upon the first, robbing it of a
large portion of its just rights. The
only remedy is. as far as possible, to
drive useless labor and idleness out of
existence"
But how is it to be done? That is
the question. IF the producers could
SO adjust their affairs with each other,
cooperate, so that neither vaIueless
work nor idleness would afford liv-
ing for any one, the problem would be
disposed of. This may be new idea
to many; but remember, every thought
that ever arose in human consciousness
was at first new thought. Just go
over in your mind of the many new
ideas that have come up during the
last century and have given the present
generation a mastery over natural re-
sources never before enjoyed by our
ancestors, SO far as history has made
any record of it. Cooperation by use
tul workers, direct constructive useful
action may prove the way out to the
promised land of universal prosperity,
forecast by prophets and seers Of all
times and lands.
Help yourself and Goodwill help

Cooperation by achievement, exam~
pie, and the object-teaching that it does
will gradually introduce the new order
of things and bring about a peaceful
transformation of the present condo
ton of affairs. Other wonderful
changes have been brought about
peacefully. Why not this also? Come

erwhelming demonstration or start

Ill the year; you can vote only once
in every two years. Cooperation can
benefit you from the start. You do,
not have to agitate for forty or fifty
years before different public policy
is decreed by Congress or by the state
Legislature. Cooperate now, and you
will at once help living humanity, en-
gage in o devotion worth while, instead
of pandering to the most debasing

Cooperation spells salvation here and

PROTECTING AMERICAN
By W. L. THURMAN

Under the pretext Of protecting
American interests" the powers that
be, that control this government, are
continually meddling in foreign affairs.
As a necessary result the danger of
throwing US into another world war
is ever present.
Protecting American interests" was
the excuse for forcing us into the
world war. The pretext was that we
went into the world war to destroy
Kaiserism' and to- make the world
safe for democracy. But in reality,
we were forced into the world war to
protect" the private interests of the
Morgan group of bond holders.
They owned English and French
bonds. The tide of war was against
England and France. Germany was
driving them as sheep to slaughter.
For Germany to have conquered the
allied powers would have meant de-
probation Of English and French bonds
and the Morgan crowd of International
bankers would have lost hundreds of
millions of dollars as the result.
The Morgan crowd owned this gov
eminent. They owned Wilson and the
entire administration. Government re-
Elected the interest~of Wall street alone.
just as it does under the Harding adj
ministration We were forced into
the world war. Wall street must not
lose money.
The Wall street gang of information
al gamblers were too shrewd to reveal
their motives of purely selfish interests.
So they hid their fear of loss on Eng
lish and French bonds behind the pre-
text of destroying Kaiserism" and
they shouted: Make the world safe
for democracy"
Those who understand the class
struggle and the strictly class motives
that control the international banker
group, represented in this country by
the house of Morgan, know that they
were-and area gang of crooks and
liars. Democracy has no greater
enemies than they are. Violation of
the constitution in the overthrow of a
free press. free speech and free assem-
blage, the terrorism that prevailed, the
yellow paint, wet rope. tar and feather
methods that prevailed are in evidence
of their hatred of democracy. Sending
men and women to prison for express
sing an opinion and holding them in
prison four years after the end of the
war is evidence Of the hatred of demo-
cracy in government that controls the
ones in control of this government.
Even the governments or Europe,
long ago, released their political pri-
soners. This government is so demo-
cratic" that we. in violation of every
constitutional right, still hold political
prisoners behind the bars!
Let no one be deceived by internal

Every element that enters into the
human makeup must be derived frcm
the world in which we live. Very few
indeed will dispute this claim with re-
spect to the chemical elements of which
our bodies are composed. But how
about the intelligence that we mani
fest? Is it nothing or just an acciden-
tai friction. or the passing interplay
of non-intelligent energies while vibrat-
ing on one another? 1t is the intelli-
gence that man can exercise that makes
him the master of all the order of ma
ture that is inferior to him in mental
acumen. And all this is supposed to
be mere nothing, only. an incidental
happening without any basic reality.
Is it sound reasoning to assume such
a banal conception Of mental phenom-
ena9 Seek and ye shall find is the
promise. We should not be able to
find food to nourish our physical bod
les unless the supply was available;
and would there be any finding of men
tai nourishment unless supply can
be had2 Think it over.

The high cost of distribution. says
Brisbane. is the trouble with Ibis coun-
try. The reward is too small for the
man that produces; the purchase price
too high for the man that consumes;
a profit TOO BIG goes to the man be-
tween" And the retail merchant is
hardly ever the man that gets the scads.
One great need to-day is to teach
the young that we can help ourselves
ultimately best by helping ourselves.
