CO-OPITALISM
Although the Co-operators are always attacking that terrible orge called Capitalism, they do not seen at all happy about their alliance with the Socialists and it was perhaps for this reason that his Mr. Wyndham Edwards, in presidential address at the Co- operative Congress at Cardiff re- cently put forward the suggestion that they wanted their own repre- sentatives in Parliament, as they were a little shy of the lion and lamb" relationship,, adding that they were not disposed to become purveyors of periodic lambs to
satisfy the lionine appetite. The
more the position and the traditions of the Co-operative Movement is considered, the less surprising this uneasiness appears. It began be-

STRAIGHT FROM THE SHOULDER
(BY 'NO QUARTER)
י
Frankly this weather, which makes the moss sprout even in the warmest cavities of the human heart, is be ginning to dull my inventive faculties. Fun, as I have always said, is fun. But when the sun hides his head under his cloudy bedclothes, and the sky weeps like a muling girl smitten on the rump with a piece of barbed wire, why then is the time when things cease to be funny. St. Bartholemew of Wapping, who killed the Great Blue Snake at Chertsey, and built a church there of beaten zinc to commemorate the deed, is reported to have said:--Rain in the sky weaus rain in the head." It is a remark of such intolerable dullness and stupidity that it may well be true...
