it failed to dampen the ardor and en-

Bringing About Thorough
Organization Here

Arthur A. Hay was elected delegate
of the Los Angeles Central Labor coun-
ell last week to attend the twenty
eighth annual convention of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor at Denver,
which will open tomorrow. The central
council conferred an unusual honor
upon Mr.. Hay by passing special reso-
lutions expressing the confidence re-
posed in him by the labor unions of the
city. The resolutions were In part as
follows:
1--WE, the delegates of the Los Angeles
Central Labor council, voicing the
sentiments of the organized labor
movement in the city of Los Angeles,
desire to express our sincere apprecia-
ton of the action of the executive
council of the A. F. of L. in placing
Arthur A. Hay in charge of the situa-
ton, and earnestly request that he be
continued in charge OF this field, to the
end that the work he has accomplished
may endure, and the valuable assist
ance being rendered to the labor move
ment of the city of Los Angeles at his
hands may bring about the antici-
pated thorough organization of the
workers of the city of Los Angeles"
M. S. Culver of Los Angeles is also
attending the Denver convention as
representative of the ironworkers' in
ternational.
Another prominent restaurant has
been unionized.

the ground won in the last year S
struggle.

"This is not the first time" said
Samuel Gompers in his comment on the
result of the election, "in the struggles
of the masses that wealth, privilege
and power gained a material, even
though a temporary victory. The part
labor took compelled the discussion to
be devoted almost exclusively to the
labor question, labor movement and the
principles of right, justice and human
ity upon which their philosophy and
demands, are based.'
The Woman's Union Label league is
arranging to maintain the pace already
set for social functions in the big Labor

Work. Play and Health.

There is just one rational method Of
work. the allotment of a certain num-
Der of hours for it and the rest of the
time spent in enjoyment OF various
kinds. If one is conscientious and
painstaking there will be about as
much drain upon the strength as is
wholesome. An English doctor whom
IA young woman consulted profession
ally asked her how she lived When
she told him that she was selfsupport-
ing in the position of a housewOrk girl,
he said it was the healthiest work she
could do. 1t contained variety, ex-
eTcised every muscle in her body and
offered her weekly half-hOlidays, which
gave the necessary change and relaxa-
ton for healthful living. But he
found fault with the diet, because in
a family where the table was gener-
ously supplied she chose toast and
tea for her first meal and on that bit
of nourishment she did the heaviest
part Of her work. He said that domes-
tic workers who made proper use of
their privileges kept youth and
strength longer than workers in any
other line and that he continually won

the example of the girls they hired.

spoonfuls OF rich cream and cover the
top with grated cheese. Bake 1t for ten
minutes, garnish with parsley and
serve with fingers of dried toast.
An unusually appeizing curry Of
veal is made as follows: Cut two
pounds Of veal into small pieces. Roa
the pieces in -four and season with
pepper and salt Put a couple Of table
spOOnfuls of butter in an iron steWing
pan. Slice a large onion and fry IL
in the butter, and when It turns g light
brown add the veal and a quart can OF
tomatoes. Stir well and place the dish
where It will cook slowly for an hour;
then add tablespoonful of curry pow

Medical science makes temperately
a claim upon the gratitude of the race.
In London. New York and Chicago, the
profession announces that recent prog
ress in the cure and prevention of dis
ease has gone far enough to diminish
distinctly the incomes of practicing
physicians. If this true, it is
magnificent message of service to hui

proof it may be accepted as true. Sani-

the lowering of typhoid percentages,
