UNION STOPS PAY OF GIRLS.

When the strike was declared on the

leave their positions. Thee union agreed to
give the girls So a week providing that
they would not return to work and they
accepted the proposition. The union, how
ever, has refused to continue the allow

matter: Their positions have all been
filled and the girls now employed are
doing satisfactory work. We thought that
1t was hardly the proper thing to involve
the girls in the strike, as the amount OF
work that they accomplished by them
would have no material difference in the
outcome. We were sorry for them and
held their positions open for nearly four
