Almost 100 years ago the Boston

Al the same time two boys who had

James 4. Shaw says Boys do not
appreciate the Importance and serious
hess ct the first steps in business life.
They fail 10 realize that the future
depends not upon luck or chance. but
Upon having a solid foundation Too
many start out blindly. without any
idea as to what they want or are aim
ing for. thinking only of their salary.
If a boy could commence business life
with even a small part Of the judg-
ment and common sense he enjoys
later on how differently he would act.
Boys too often fail TO realize the dig
nifty of their new life and cling to their
boyishness and their boy pranks
which seriously interfere with their
work. He need not assume the airs
of an old man. but he should forget
the time-wasting and useless nonsense
during business hours Boys often
think that because their work is APP
pa-ently trivial it is unimportant, and
so do their work in a slipshod way
There is no part of the work about a
business establishment that should
not be done accurately and promptly.
Employers notice how the employee
does the little things. though the en-
ploye sometimes thinks that his shirk-
ing is not noticed Every boy should
aim TO do all his work at least little
better than any one else car. He
should give it thought. figure out how
he can save time and money and i'm
prove the character of the work. Sug-
gestions are always in order. He
should be in his place on or before the
time expected. and if sickness makes
him late he should Immediately ex-
plain it TO his employer. If the boy
runs out OF duties he should look for
more. Men want bright. ambitious
boys around them prepared by expert
ence in humble positions TO I'LL higher.

The City Commissioners have re-

for saving the life of Geo. Cady. Dr..
Shatto, speaking of the incident, said
Thursday, II am not surprised that the
Commissioners should get ratified over
the bill, as they are doubtless disturb
ed by the volcanic mutterings now going
on in the affairs of the city. The facts
in the case are as follows: Late on the
evening mentioned, | was called into a

stance of policeman, to attend Cady,
who had been brought there by the
officer. l attended the man, and my
bill was made small in consideration of
the financial stringency of the city.

Serio-Comic Ending to a Fishing
Trip at Long Lake.

What might have been very seri-
Gus matter, but which ended in two
persons being considerably frightened
for short time. took place at Long
lake, Thursday. Manager Ralph
Isenhart, of IA local lunch room, went
fishing ON that day in company with
young lady. They secured boat,
and were fishing close to the dock at
Long lake park. The young lady was
standing with one hand on the dock
looking into the water, and did not
notice that she was pushing the boat
farther and farther away. until she
lost her balance and fell in the lake.
Mr.. Isenhart with great presence of
mind, jumped in after her. not know
ing that the water was but a few feet
deep. and both the young people then
clambered out, with no more serious
damage than ducking.

WORKING
For Big Time
Labor Day.
c. l. u. Held a Busy
Meeting.
Boot and Shoe Makers to be
Organized Soon.

Among the things which were con-
eidered by the Central Labor union
at the meeting held last night, was
plan for the preparation of the Labor
day celebration this year. 1t Is, OF
course, desired that big celebration,
with parade, and contests of various
kinds, be held in the vicinity, but the
Central Labor union realizes that all
this will cost money and plan has
been set on foot to ascertain how
much money will be forthcoming.
Circular letters have been printed,
and these will be sent to all Of Ak
ron's merchants and other public
spirited citizens, from whom contri-
buttons for Labor day will be solicit
ed, or, If no contributions may be ex-
pected at this time, statement of
what the G. J.. U. may expect later
in the season will be asked. The let
ter will be signed by j. j. Mahoney,
president, and the secretary.
The boot and shoemakers of the city
will next receive the attention of the
g. l.. IT,, and an effort will be made
to organize them almost Immediately.
Mr.. John A. Wintrode was given con-
stitutions and bylaws and full in
structions to go ahead and organize
these workers, at the meeting Last
hight. Reports from the various un-
Ions of the city indicate that all of
them have been doing well; the street
railway men spoke encouragingly of
their conditions; the patternmakers
state that their union is more prosper
ous than for 10 years, and an open
meeting will he held by the Hodcar-
riers' union next Thursday night at
Youngs hall. All union or non-union
men in the city are invited. Among
the speakers will be Mr.. Max Hayes,
editor of the Cleveland Citizen, the
official paper of the G. l.. U. in Cleve-
land and John A. Wintrode, of this
city.
The matter of members of various
unions of the city visiting each other,
and trading ideas or acquiring new
ones was taken up by the G. l.. u,
and approved. A spirit of greater
fraternity among the different trades
unions will be encouraged as much
rs possible.
