CENTRAL LABOR UNION
ENDORSES WATER BOARD
Adopt Resolutions Heartily
Approving Of Position
Taken by Commission

The Central Labor Union yesterday af-
ternoon adopted the following resolutions.
Resolved. That the Central Labor
Union heartily approves of the position
takon by tho Board Of Water Commis-
sloners. as they understand IL, providing
for the Immediate construction under
their supervision. and without entering
into contracts for laying pipes, OF the
new reservoir about 20 bo constructed,
believing that such course If pursued by
them will be for the best interests OF
the city of wilmington and an IFS people,
The reason for the above action is due TO
the fact that n the Water Department
lays the new pipe line with its own men.
the latter will only be Obliged 70 work
eight hours a day while contractor
would compel his employees 20 work ten
hours.
That il Is the intention Of the Water
Board 20 lay the pipe line with It's own
men IS an assured fact. and the promised
clash between the commission and City
Auditor Spence Is IN consequence SURE
to follow The latter win be backed up by
Water Commissioner b. r. shaw. who
favors giving the work TO contractor.

an dthe story is a representation OF the
happenings OF almost every household for
tunate TO possess a daughter whose future
is to be considered above all else. 1t is
nothing in common with the fgments OF
the Imaginative mind and is handled with
the utmost reverence and dslicacy, deal
ing as it does with events in the life Of
a young girls and a subject so interesting
to all humanity. And Mr.. Summerheld has
been daring in his playwriting too. He has
done something which at first blush might
seem 10 border close TO the danger line,
but which by reason Of the great deli
cacy with which one certain scene is
handled and the deep reverence which is
displayed in its enactment becomes a
most impressive situation. The play is
