Your ancestors could not read and write, and no one told them that they were slaves and dupes. But you are told this, you can read it, and yet you still remain dumb to your real rela-- tionship to the rich. Shame on you ! -â€"Ibid. The Ant and the Sluggard. The Sluggard went to the Ant to consider her ways. He lay in the shade near where several colonies of Ants were building their homes, und faithfully watched them a long time until he fell asleep. ‘When he awoke he went back to his companions. One of them regarded him for a few min- utes, and then remarked: “It doesn’t seem to me that wis- dom is oozing from your pores.” “ Oh, I got wise all right,” answer- ed the sluggard. “ As how ’l ” inquired his companion. “ Like Solomon and thousands of other Sluggards have done since his day,” returned the modern Sluggard. “It’s a dead sure cinch that if the working class can be made to hustle like the Ants do, there will never be any need of _us working. It ’s a great thing to get wise to that fact.” “And that is what you learned. W'ell, I think it is highly immoral and unscriptural.” “I do n’t see why. You don’t say that when the captains of industry gather that lesson from it, and proceed to fortify themselves as sluggards.” “But they gather enough wisdom to be quiet about it.” “There may be something in that. But since I have been investigating, I will be kind enough to put you next. So long as people work as hard as the Ants they can be fooled and kept at it. When you look at two Ants pulling opposite on something they want to carry forward, and when you see them climb a weed to the top and then go down on the other side, as a means of getting around it, you can see very readily why they can be kept at work always as they now are. Solomon was right. ‘ Go to the Ant, thou Sluggard, consider her ways and get wise,’ and then you won’t have to work any I more. But, say, I have a great scheme for you to 'work out , you like to work, you know." The Sluggard’s companion had colâ€" lapsed by this time, yet he managed to falter : “ \Vhat is your scheme 2 ” 3. ,“If we could only cross the Ant " with the working mule we would have labor down pat.” The Sluggard’s companion fainted dead awayâ€"Socialist Fables.

Under this order one-- third of the children die before they‘ reach their teens. Is that a success? Under this order the nations are mortâ€" gaged to maintain armies and battle- ships, and thousands of the choicest" young men are purposely killed in war. Is that a. success? Under this order 35,000 men are killed and nearly two million mangled in industry each year.. Is that a success? Under this order \the wealth of the nation is piling up in the hands of the few, and the many are becoming renters? Is that a suc- cess? Under this order there are new four million unemployed in the United States, and a regular army of a hun- dred thousand tramps, besides a hun- dred thousand rich people whose sole. function in life is to destroy the w0rk~~ I Raisins, currants, peels, figs, dates, ‘ nuts of all kinds---everything in our “grocery department is strictly fresh and of the highest quality obtain- able. Every housekeeper ought to pick from purity for this occasion--â€" and it’s here, and it’s cost isn’t any higher than you are used to_ paying. der this system there are hundreds of’ thousands of child slaves, and there are 35,000 girls seduced every year and driven to commercial life wherein' their bodies are the 'stock in trade. Is that success? Under this system man- ufacture has grown until it employs as many people as agriculture does, and, by use of the machine, produces goods to three times the value of all the farm products. Is that success? Under this system few are able to own a home of their own, few people have the chance to travel and develop the talent they may have, and no man, however rich, is quite, sure that he will not die a pauper. Is that success? Can there be freedom of action and freedom of thought under these con- ditions? The fact is, the world l'lfls" been eaten up by a few people, an! the rest exist only by grace of payingr others for the privilege. , Capitalism is a cannibal that do;- troys the lives of men, women and children, both literally and also figuraâ€" _, -â€":_. ‘o'Tâ€"fl tivel 7, in that it takes from them the Were Klllgs Dlfi‘erent?
