TIE EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS
OF LABOR UNIONS.

written and dellVered Dy Milton
Keeper at the graduating exercises
OF the preparatory school of the
Washington State College, Pullman,
Washington, June 10th, 1903.
President Elliott, of Harvard. re-
Gently stated that in the labor
unions there is a greater educational
agency than in the combined inf1u-
ence of the church and the school,
How true this statement is can be
clearly seen. Education in it's accu-
rate sense is more than books and
school It involves mans entire re
latlOns, moral social and political.
In short whatever makes men higher
minded men. larger men, whatever
makes men race builders educates
them.
Just such a broad agency of edu-
cation are the labor unions rules
and regulations, which shame and
punish the idle the worthless and
unfit, implanting a spirit of mutual
support and assistance and eleyat-
ing the character of the workmen
By demanding proper sanitary condi-
tons with regard to light, heat and
ventilation, in the shops. factories
and mines. the spirits and health of
the wOrkmen are preserved.
Again, by Censuring the employ
ment Of small boys through long
days by condemning the working
of little girls through nights of
strain and toll. by denouncing the
coinage of flesh and blood of little
children into money, by crying out
against that idea that deems flesh
and blood cheaper commodities than
iron and steel the labor unions re-
move one of the greatest barriers tC
intellectual progress. They declare
that this nation can not afford to al
low its children to remain down ir
Ignorance when they are destined tc
become its rulers. They intend that
those who holding the ballot in their
hands, are soon to guide the destiny

But these are not the only activi.

above all the educational agencies
OF the day stands the shorter hou1
system which the labor unions no
only demand but secure. The glow
ing results of this, this time for rec.

schools are very evident.
