You remember LongfelIow:


- Clamorous labor
Knocked with its hundred hands at the golden gates
Of the morning
Yes, the gates opened, and the morning
sun with all its glory shone in. Daniel
/ Webster in one OF his great speeches
! said that Labor in this country is
proud and independent Il has not TO
ask the patronage Of capital, bat capital
solicits the aid Of labor and that has
become increasingly true, Labor which
provides our homes, builds Up our cities.

prayer. It is prayer. It Is that faith
and works. which makes the perfect
whole And the beauty Of it is that in
/ labor we have field of endeavor that
shall last throughout the world. When
Troy was builded and Babylon was
burned men were Iaboring even as they
are to-day, and II the time comes when
Maceulay's New Zealander Is 70 stand on
the ruins Of London Bridge and wonder
at this civilization of ours which has
passed away. men will be laboring still
Labor with what zeal We will
Something stin remains undone.
Something unc0mpleted still.
Waits the rising Of the sun.
And on Labor Day we celebrate a
holiday. and the spirit OF comradeship Is
in the air. and thousands of happy men
and women rest and
Taste the JOY
That springs from labor.
For Labor. besides being prayer, is
1 Love. And If one works IN love and hope
and faith. then labor Is an eveT-increas-
I .ng JOY. There are few joys comparable
20 the JOY of work well done, and the joy
/ springs. not from the wages. which are
secondary, after all but from the knowI-

THE old country schoolhouse Of not 30
long ago will soon be relic Of the past"
said James Tighe, Of Altoona, Pa, at the
Metropolitan last night.
Although one travelling through the
country sees many Of these old-fashioned
structures. he does not realize that they
are rapidly being deserted, and that
consolidated schOOlhOusc will be met with
farther up the road. These new build
ings are graded, and many have several
high school courses. so that one teacher
now teaches only one class, whereas in
the old days the pedagogue taught every
thing from the alphabet to Latin.
''Of course the consolidated school
house is not so convenient TO all the chill
dren. as they have 10 go a greater dis
lance. but all of them ride to school now
adays. The consolidated school is much
cheaper TO the community, and what the
farmer saves in taxes he puts in sleighs
and wagons. so that his children may
ride. Pupils can also remain at their
home schools much longer than they
formerly could, and this is also a great
saving. We may expect great results
from this change for the farmers vita
their poor schools have turned out some
wonderful men and they should do even
better under the new conditions"

GOOD WORK OF
Miners HOSPITAL
INSTITUTION PRACTICALLY FREE
FROM DANGEROUS CASES
AN EFFICIENT STAFF.

1t certainly speaks well for the
efficiency of the staff of the Miners
Union Hospital when it is considered
that at the present time there is not
a serious case under treatment ex-
eept j. H. Jones, who was injured
a few days since at Bonnie Claire.
1t was a most pleasant sight TO a
representative of the Bonanza, on the
occasion of a recent call, to e prac-
tically all the beds neatly made up
and covered with the o white
spreads. There are still a number
of patients in the institutions, but
they have progressed so far under
the efficient treatment accorded that
they are able to be around the build
ing during the day time. Superln-
tendent DR.. Cowden has proven him
self an admirable executive and in
his administration he is greatly aided
by the Assistant Superintendent DR..
Mcleod. DR.. Mcleod comes from
Boston and enjoys the reputation of
being a thorough surgeon. 1t is to
him that falls the duty of perform
ing all operations upon patients who
are members of the Miners Union.
A thoroughly up to date operating
room has been fitted up and the
surgeon in charge has every con-
yenience to perform the most danger
GUS operations. A full set of operat-
ing instruments have also been pro-
cured. Under the efficient supervi-
sion of the matron, Mrs. Temple, the
interior of the building is spick and
spa and the greatest neatness is APP
parent everywhere. Naturally en-
dowed with a disposition to admins
ter the greatest care, the patients at
her hands receive many gentle at
tentions which help so to alleviate
their sufferings. This propensity on
the part of their superior stimulates
in the other nurses a strong desire
to emulate her example and as a re-
suit the patients enjoy at all times
every possible comfort. To further
emphasize the efficiency of the pres
ent administration, is the fact, that
the death rate for the past year, in
Guiding patients entered by outside
physicians, has been considerably
lower than for the year preceding.
Many people do not stop to consider
the grand offices performed by this
institution or realize the comforts II
affords and the many sufferings II
relieves. The hospital is operated
by the Miners Union for the benefit
of its members although arrange.
ments can be made for the treatment
of patients who are not members o.
the Union.
