DISCHARGED; NO WARNING.
Indications Point to Complete Shut
down Of Fl. Dodge Stucco Industry

Indications Point to Complete Shut
down Of Fl. Dodge Stucco Industry.
Fort Dodge, April 18.-Without a
moments warning 800 employees OF the
United States Gypsum company Of this
city were discharged last evening as
the day shift started to make way for
the night shift at the mill. The indica-
lions now point to a complete shut
down of the entire stucco industry
here, which is the largest in the I'm
tied States.
The trouble started when miners Of
the United States company, known as
the trust" asked that the old scale of
As cents a ton for mining gypsum
rock be restored. That was the price
paid until the financial stringency
came on last fall when the company
cut the scale to 40 cents. The miners
gave the company to understand that
they would wait until next Wednesday
and if their demands were not granted
the mill hands would strike in sympa-
thy with the miners.
Thursday the miners at the Ameri-
can Independent Gypsum company
gave notice to the manager that the
scale would have to be advanced 5
cents a ton by next Monday or all
would strike. The manager told them
to take their dinner pals and go home
for the mill would be closed down at
once. All Of the other mills had held
their answer in allegiance until last ev-
ening when the men were notified that
they were discharged. A general fore
man and an assistant were retained to
look after the mill.
There were but two Independent
mills running last night. What today
will bring forth Is uncertain, but the
indications point to general shut
down of all the mills as the miners in
all mills demanded an advance.

cording TO the constitution, one
meeting a month, from September
TO April is set aside for educational
exercises OF various kinds. An edu-
cational committee is appointed
within 80 days after the annual cleo
tion, the last meeting in March. by
the Worthy Protarch, whose duty is
to arrange a program for one meet
ing each month called a fellowship
session. This meeting Is intended
to be both instructive and interest
ing, the committee keeping in mind
that all talks or lectures of an edu-
cational nature must be elementary
in their character. That is, II the
topic of the evening Is electricity, Il
must be treated in such way as
will benefit the carpenter or book
keeper who is not particularly inter
ested in this subject Yet the talk
can be so elementary in It's char
acter that all present will derive
benefit and receive valuable intor-
nation. II is not intended that
these meetings should be addressed
by impractical technical men. who
treat on subjects in a stupidity tech
nioal way, talking over the heads Of
the members.
The program arranged by your
educational committee can be inter
spersed with music, instrumental end
vocal, or any other form of enter
tainment that will be educational
and interesting in It's character. The
importance OF these sessions cannot
be overestimated because. the tone
and character OF them will be en-
tirely under the control OF the COM
mlttee. and upon them will. In a
large measure. depend the success OF
this unique and distinctive feature.

exclaim in protest he had slipped her

he had come around the cottage from
the kitchen, when he was arrested by
two eager voices at an open window.

She threw her arms about his neck

Through the open window the first
strains of a waltz came out to him. He
saw the little shepherdess pass the win
dow. and his heart gave curious leap.
He saw two women with their heads to-

them was Mrs. Fletcher. At that sight
his lips settled into grim lines. ''The
little thing shan't suffer because of THAI

if I let her. If she hasn't right to

He went UP the steps he had just de-

was at the piano, pounding out tune
with triple beat. The little shepherd
ess was standing alone near the wall.
He went up to her swiftly.
