Model of the G. A. r.


the survivors OF the Mexican war, who.
by the conflict between tne states. were
also survivors of the civil war. was the
idea of Col A. NJ. Kenaday 1t is. said
that this idea later became the model
after which the Grand Army of the Re
public and the Confederate Veterans
Association were organized.
February - and % were the DAYS
selected for the annual meetings for two
reasons. First. that IL represented the
victory Of the battle OF Buena Vista.
and second, that it was the birthday of
George Washington, and the veterans
would, in this manner. show their
loyalty by it's observance. Further Con-
gress was always in session on these
dates. and any desired legislation could
be pushed.
Colonel Kenaday had organized the
California Association of Mexican War
Veterans in 1865, which was probably
the first organization of ex-soIdfers
into n military and social order after
the close of the civil war Removing
To Washington six years later, his sym
pathies were aroused over what he
termed the unjust discrimination
against the Mexican war soldiers in
pension matters. because the veterans
Of that war, native Of and living in the
south. had cast their lot with that sec
ton during the civil war.
Pensions Asked for Veterans.
Immediately after the meeting in
1873 a bill was drafted and introduced
In Congress asking for a service pen
sion for old and needy Mexican war
veterans.
The last convention held in Wash
ington was twenty-six years ago.
There were over a thousand at the re-

URGES UNION OF ACTION

On Saturday. in the afternoon. at the
headquarters OF the printers on strike
a larger number of the typos gather
than on any other afternoon OF the
week.
The attraction on Saturday is twofold.
One is a heart-to-heart talk by some
prominent speaker. the other is the
walking of the ghost" This latter per-
Torrance insures a large attendance
Yesterday afternoon the striking prin-
teTs listened to an interesting address
from Rev f. V. Bagby, pastor Of the
Ninth street northeast Christian Church.
The minister is often referred to as the
printers preacher, because there are
many printers in his flock.
tt was a few minutes afte- o'clock
when Chairman Parsons. of the eight
hour committee introduced Rev. Mt.
Bagby. As the reverend gentleman
arose to begin his talk. he was greeted
with applause from the hundred and
odd printers present.
After thanking Chairman Parsons for
the kind invitation to speak. he said
ministers were public servants who
could never hope to have their hours
of labor limited 10 eight hours, though
such a boon would certainly be de-
sirable~

The National Association of Mexican
Wa Veterans was founded in 1873 in

day. Its object was TO bring together

on the broad principles of equality. fra
teruity and charity for social inter
course, good fellowship. and to give

was necessary.
In October. 1S47. a month after the

Put Yourself All sse5r Place ana Look
! ut Life F'ros- gsseir Viewpoint.
HIhe reason many women have diff
Guilty in Keeping servants. is because
they have acquired tie habit Of looking
Upon maids as a separate and distinct
species of human beings, who could
not be expected to respond to consid-
erations which govern the life Of their
mistresses and who are almost. if not
quite, incapable Of feeling. .sOnly begin
! to show you are interested in your
servants, and you simply can't keep
them in their place. you hear women
say. That may be, but, after all, is it
not thousand times better to win the
love and respect of your dependents
rather than keep them at arms length
BY assuming a spurious sort of superb
'ority? Try for a moment to put your
self in their place and look at life from
their point Of view This is absolutely
essential il you wish to understand the
life of servant and how different it
tries to treat her maids as fellow crea-
lures. Here is a series of rules to prac-
tice which will do much to keep serv-
ants happy and contented:
Pay Wages Regularly.
Always pay your servants as much
money as you can afford as a compen-
sation for the services they render you
and always pay them regularly. So far
as you can without offending, take an
interest in the way they Use their
wages and help them to be econ omical.
Always state your orders pleasantly,
briefly and clearly. Maids, as a rule,
are not mind readers; neither are they
responsible for mistress poor mem
DRY.
Have the kitchen and the servants
room or rooms clean and coy. Pic
lures are not necessary, but comforta-
BILE beds, chairs and sunshine are.
Do not take superior tone in speak
ing to servants. It makes them either
servile or resentful, while the qualities
you should seek to cultivate in them
are self respect, honesty and affection.
Never permit children to be disre-
spectful to a maid. This rule is as nee
essary for the proper bringing up Of
the children as for the comfort Of the
maid
Remember that she needs rest and
fresh air and sunshine, that social re-
lationships are ais essential to her as
to you, that her life is brighter and her
work better for her afternoons and
evenings off, that sorrow depresses her
and pain hurts her even as they do you.
and yours.
The Training of Servant.
A servant should be taught to wait
at table quietly and rapidly, and per-
haps these are the most difficult points
to master. 1t may take months Of
training before they are done satisfac-
torily. Some girls, however, being so
much quicker than others, soon learn
to wait,at table, SO that one Is only
aware Of their presence by the removal
Of asplate or dish. IS
