Frogs at School.

Frogs at School. Twenty froggies went to school Down beside a rush pool Twenty little coats of green; Twenty vests all white and clean. "We must be In time," said they: First we study, then we play; That is how we keep the rule When we froggies go to school" Master Bullfrog, grave and stern Called the classes in their turn; Taught them how to nobly strive, Likewise how to leap and dive: From his seat upon the log, Showed them how to say, "Ker-chog" Also how to dodge a blow From the sticks that bad boys throw. Twenty froggies grew up fast; Bullfrogs they became at last, Not one dunce among the lot; Not one lesson they forgot: Polished in high degree, As each froggie ought to be. Now they sit on other logs, Teaching other little frogs. Anonymous.

The death of the Rev. Sam Jones, the noted evangelist, brought to a close a most interesting and useful life. For more than thirty years this man was travelling exhorter, preaching four times a day for weeks at a time, al- ways to crowds. and always stirring the crowds to ecstasy by the force of his rhetoric and the feryor of his ora- tory. During his ministry be address ed more than twenty-five million per sons. The newspapers delighted to give him prominence, for both the mat ter and the manner of his addresses were often startling. and the crowds which docked to hear him were pictur- esque. Thousands of Americans, therefore, will always think of Sam Jones as a crude, uneducated zealot, pouring forth fire and vitrlol, and courting notoriety by extravaganza of speech. Nothing could be further from the truth. Crude he may have been, and extravagant ln speech he certainly was; but it was not alone what Sam Jones said, It was the man himself that moved audiences to tears and turned thousands of his hearers toward better ways of living He spoke as one who had been a drunkard and gam. bier; wild, profane boy, who broke his parents hearts by his evil ways; youth who turned from hls wickedness only at the bedside of dying father

viii Missouri 60 ''Dry?"

Jefferson City. Feb. 9.-Is Missouri
ready for prohibition That question is
one that probably will become vital in
the Legislature within a week. Many per.
ions have not thought much about it, but
a friend Of Adolphus Busch, the million
aire St. Louis brewer. who was in
Jefferson City yesterday, expressed very
great anxiety on h subject.
Senator Peck introduced a resolution
about two weeks ago to amend the con.
stitution so as to prohibit the sale of In.
toxicating liquor. There were few com.
nents at the time. but a few days later
senators began to turn in petitions asking
for its passage. They came from the
Christian organizations throughout the
state. Zach senator began to show up
in the morning with a petition from con.
s%tituents at home asking for the passage
of the bill. Practically all of the senator's.
except part Of the city senator's, have
presented petitions asking for the
passage Of the amendment.
The lower house is already bonbarded
with similar petitions, and each day
brings new ones. In the last few days
senator's have begun to say the resolution
will pass the senate. Senator Peck saws
he has made a fairly accurate canvas
and has votes enough 10 pass the
measure in the upper house. If il
should pass the senate there will he real
trouble for the brewers and liquor men
in the lower house.
II POWER OF THE CHURCH.
Probably a majority Of members Of
both houses Relieve that with the large
cities prohibition in this state is no, o
sibls. But it is one thing to have doubts
about the wisdom Of a measure and
quite another to 80 on record as against
a measure that the people Of your
church and your social friends favor.
Probably l20 Of the ll2 members of the
lower house belong to one church or
another.
A roll call will he kept when the
measure is submitted, and the brother
who votes agains, the amendment is apt
to be accused Of falling within the in.
Ruenee Of the brewery lobby. Should
the measure pass both houses i, will lie
submitted 10 the people.
The governor has nothing 70 do with
constitutional amendments. lie can
neither sign nor veto them. Governor
Folk is not All advocate of prohibition.
He believe in strict regulation and strict
enforcement Of the law.
a GOOD CHANCE OF ADOPTION.
Should the amendment he submitted
to the people OF the state the chances
would be rather favorable to its adoption
than otherwise. That nigh, moi, be true
in the cities, but many of the counties
are now without saloons BECAUSE Of local
option. and when local option PROPOSE.
tons are submitted they ar. almost
always adopted in Missouri. The
brewers are beginning to recognize the
importance of the prohibition amend
ment. Kansas City Star.

Temple Pledge List Still
Shows a Healthy Growth

Yes, 1t is growing, but 1t is growing
at a rate that seems discouragingly
slow to some people. But The Wage
worker is not surprised. 1t believes
that before long wave of enthusiasm
will strike the union men of the city,
and when 1t does things will hum
along at q merry rate.
The list has been increased quite
q bit this week. A lot of printers got
into the game this week. A couple of
locomotive engineers have taken a
hand, and that means more as soon as
these two get to work. A well known
newspaper man comes in. He is on
the list for lone days work." but when
the time comes he will do lot more
than that A score or more of the
men on the list have declared their
willingness to make 1t weeks work
and take 1t out in stock. This means
that the list represents a great deal
more than just one days work for
each name thereon.
Word comes that a union painter is
hustling and has already got a goodly
list OF his fellows. But The Wage
worker has not been able to get It
The wageworker., 1907-05-17

yet. There is time. The Wageworker
is willing to give any man time who is
hustling for contributions. No use
crowding the thing too much.
Well build labor temple in Lincoln
some of these days. But we ought to
hurry. A golden opportunity is rapid
ly slipping by. Well be sorry some
day il we don't grab it before it is too
late
Every dollar you contribute to the
labor temple fund will be represented
by a share of stock in the enterprise
No man is asked to make an outright
donation. The money will all come
back in the shape of dividends. But
the best part of it will be the influence
for good that commodious labor tenn
pie will have.
If you haven't got into the game yet
do it now! Some other man may be
waiting for you to make a start. You
may have a few friends whom you sec
daily who would gladly get into the
game if you mentioned the facts to
them.
Every man ought to do his part
Are you doing yours? &

SATURDAY HAIE-HOLIDAY.
How 1t may be Secured for Working
men Of This City.

How It may be Secured for Working
men of This City.
Many cities larger even than Lin
coin have the Saturday half-holiday
during the summer months. Why not
Lincoln
There is one thing that stands in the
way just now, and that is the Satur-
day pay day. Naturally workingmen
and women spend the bulk of their
wages the day they receive them, pay
ing for the week ahead. To accomo-
| date them, and as a mere matter of
business, the merchants must keen
open on Saturday.
| If the merchants did practically no
business on Saturday they could per
haps, be induced to entertain the Sat
urday half-holiday proposition. One
of the largest retailers in Lincoln told
the editor Of the Wageworker last
week that he would gladly concede
the half-holiday if employers as rule
would make Monday or Tuesday the
pay day instead of Saturday.
| Why not start a crusade for Mon.
| day pay day in all lines, and when it
is secured endeavor to secure the Sat
urday half-hoiiday?
This is a matter that local unions
would do well to consider and to take
action upon at an early date.
Just make it improbable for the
merchants and manufacturers to keep
open on Saturday afternoon and night
and they will soon listen to arguments
in favor of the half holiday. Lincoln
ought to get into the procession along
with other progressive cities that have
adopted the half-holiday system.
