There'll BE No Strike

That all talk of q strike has been dis
PEELED by the joint action of both sides,
bespeaks of conditions in the local field
promising for the future an even more
amicable relation between employer and
employed. That such conditions exist
can mean only that prosperity is to con-
tinue and with this continued growth of
good feeling prosperity is to be enjoyed
and shared by all. Great credit is due
the men for their business-like methods
in seeking a peaceable solution, just as
equal credit is due the company for it's
fairminded an man-to. man atti tude in
discussing the question with the men
and meeting them half way. 1t is
sincerely hoped that this feeling will
not only exist for all time, but will con-
tinue to grow and result in material
advantage to the men, the company and
the camp as "a whole.-Ely Expositor

There is man in our town, and he
is wondrous wise; when he writeth to
the editor he dotteth all his is And
when the is are dotted, to prove that
he's the cheese, he punctuates each para

side alone he writes, and never rolls the
leaves; 50 from the stern blue pencil

question he doth ask (he's truly wise
guy, u two-cent stamp he never fails to
inclose for the reply.
