uct: anu Iair play. I Democracy has been termed a capitalistic system, .but it is more than that, because a purely capital- istic system would not condone much that we liave in our democratic system to-day. It includes much that we might term socialistic. Our civil service, postal service, educa-l tional system, highways, railwa_vs,| hydro, hospitals, etc., are all social- istic. and there is an gradual trend more and more towards socialism.| {' But with all this, there is freedom -.b"3f thought and speech not found in I any other form of government. In a democracy the government is the] representatives of the people, and We have politicians and statesmen. We perhiazps look on politicians with , disfavor, but they serve a useful. purpose, because they have their ears to the ground and know just what the people think. In this way they interpret the will of the elec- tors, which is essential to a success- ful government. \ _L.A ' ` WPLANT TREES In ` MARK CORONATION vsuug uoa save the Ring.
