SCHOOL NOTES
IN THE GRADE SCHOOL


In spite of threatening weather
we visited the Pine Tree Dairy
last week. Six mothers took cars
for us. They were Mrs. Monson
Mrs. B. H. Clark, Mrs. B. P. Finn
Mrs. c. H. Burmeister, Mrs. R.
w. Pryor and Mrs. Reede Gray.
On the dairy farm, where we
had to take refuge in the milk
house during the storm, we saw
all the things we have been
studying about in our milk unit
in school. When we looked into
the big refrigerator, each child
was given a bottle of milk to
drink.
We have begun to build dairy
farm in our sandtable. We al
ready have the barn, silo, milk
house, and the pasture with sew
eral cows. We are also making
milk booklets.

MR.. HALLE proves in this book
that 1t is possible to write lightly
yet knowingly about birds. He Is
scientist as we'll as a bird lover, but
there is no pedantry in Birds Against
Men" It is a series Of sketches Of
vivid winged personalities: Hawks,
pigeons, man O. wars, parrots. The
author observed them first hand, of
course; even lived with them, as in
convenient as that may sound Birds
are harder to personalize than cats
or dogs, say. but Mr. Halle is remark
ably successful. He never descends to
whimsy, naive wonderment at their
human-like qualities or blind admira-

fact manner and they come alive

That capitalism begets labor move

socialism, that any socialism save
that Of Marx is destined to faik that
labor in order to make the most of
its MARKHAM doctrine should form a
political party around which it should

hear!
Anybody wants peace, democracy
and satisfactory standard Of national
life-yes, certainly. Mr.. Strachey has
something there. But In drawing these
conclusions from the English labor
movement he is curiously arbitrary in
applying them to America. For Amer
lea, without the benefit Of either a la
Dor party or MARKHAM socialism, has
always defended peace and democracy
and has the highest standard Of ma
tional life in the world. It would not
take labor movement to write peace,
democracy and a high standard OF
living into the articles of our faith;
On the contrary, it can be said that
America has kept the ideals Of peace
and democracy alive in the world, and
that a capitalist system among us has
produced a better standard Of living
than Marxism has elsewhere. More
over, the doctrines of Marx are hard
ly compatible with either peace or
democracy.

WHAT ARE WE TO DO? BY John
Strachey. New York: Random
House.
THE great part of this book is given
over to solid and factual history
of the labor movement in England
and America, with a discussion of the
similarities and dissimilarities between
the two. In this respect 1t has the
value which any historical work can
claim. Mr.. Strachey, however. is
not concerned primarily with factual
history, but is only using that as a
taking-off point for theorizing. And
20. having charted the course of la
bor's struggle to the present, he draws
a set of conclusions from that course,
and applies them to labor's future.
Thus he answers the question which
he has put in the title Of his book.
The conclusions which he draws
from labor's history are as follows:
