Uneasy lies the head that wears a

Illustrated lecture or Hats and Head

before the Adelphian club this after
noon.
Twenty-one maids and matrons Of
the local smart set served as models
and posed on the stage while the
speaker dealt with The particular vari-

elaborate display OF ancient and mod

scented from the GainsbOrough TO the

ghose makes were in vogue.
OLD FASHIONS RECAST
After stating that the conception of
srt ia respect TO beauty adorned or
.atnsdorned knows no rule or standard
- that the culture of beauty was a
tinaate-art. Mrs. Teller said:
The head is the croWning glory of
beautiful woman and it is fitting that

OBJECTION>MADE TO
NFWSCHOOL SYSTEM
Many Criticise While Others
Speak in Praise of Proposed
Readjustment in Berkeley

BERKELEY, Dec. 4.-The plan of
Frank f. Bunker, superintendent of
schools. for the reorganization of the
local department on a three school
basis instead of the time honored two
school plan in vogue in the cities of
the United states. which have met the
approval of the school board and may
be adopted, is causing lively discus
sion for and gainst the scheme.
Bunker's plan provides for the fol-
lowing divisions: First, all lower
grades up to the seventh; second, in
termediate or Introductory high school
group, including the seventh, eighth
and ninth grades; third, high school,
with four years Of study
The establishment of the interme-
date group would result in making
students go too far to reach schools
containing the seventh, eighth and
ninth grades Parents here believe
that a change should be made in
Runker's plan to eliminate the neces-
sity of sending seventh grade pupils
TO schools removed from their imme-
diate neighborhood.
The same objection holds in the case
of the high school, but that objection
has TO be met under the present
scheme.
The members of the administrative
corps of the schools viii be affected
by the change in the department or
ganization, and that part of the scheme
is therefore criticised.
The teachers will be shifted under
the new plan and there would be
changes in the principalship. Bunker
has met this objection by declaring
that there viii always be the same
number OF pupils in each of the
schools, and that the difficulties of re-
arrangina the corps OF teachers would
be gradually overcome.
The mothers clubs of this city have
taken the greatest interest in the
plan of reorganization.

caused a sensation here. had been
under the suspicion of the police for
several months, although no attempt
was made to apprehend him, as not
enough evidence was secured to insure
a conviction.
Ia March of this year Argall was un-

cording to Chief Vollmer, for stealing

hundreds of dollars, was recovered
from a Shattuck avenue jeWeIer- Ar

but q complaint was not sworn to be-
cause his wife could not testify against
him.
shortly afterward Argau stole a
ring from W. Wood of the firm of
Wood & Tatum, but he was not prose-
cuted, as he turned over the pawn tick
cts and the gem was redeemed.
EXPELLED FROM ELKs' LODGE
ArgalTs Irregularities in business af-
fairs attracted the attention of the To-
cal lodge Of EIks and after a trial he
was convicted and expelled from the
lodge. He then left Berkeley for a
time but returned and remained until
q little over month go, when he left
for parts unknown.
During his operations here it is esti-
mated that Argall stole several thou
sand dollars from the various realty
firms with which he had dealings.
Charles Mills reported the loss of $500
which Argall borrowed.
According TO the police Argall is
wanted in other cities. 1t is said that

Argalls downfall is attributed TO

Now, what did Mr. Gompers and
Mr.. John Mitchell and Mr.. Frank

publish boycott notice which was
seriously damaging the business,
(and, therefore, the property of
that st. Louis Stove and Range Com
pany. This Company thereupon
went to Judge Wright, in the circuit
having jurisdiction over Mr. Com
pers, and presented the facts, sworn
to, and praying Judge Wright to re-
strain Mr. Gompers from publishing
that boycott notice. The order was
issued and served. Mr.. Gompers and
his colleagues were summoned to
come into Court, and let the Judge
decide the issue between the labor
leaders and the St. Louis Stove and

just as you and I would have to do?
Did he and his colleagues have
right to take the law into their own
hands? If he was in the right, and
the Stove Company in the wrong,
why did he not go into Court and
lay the evidence before the Judge?
His defiance of judicial authority is
all the more remarkable because of
the fact that he has continued to pub.
lish the boycott notice! Never have
I known such an aggravated con-
tempt of Court.
Liberty of the Press does not
give me the right to blast your repu-
tation by publishing vile SANDERS of
you. The Courts would enjoin me
from doing it,-just as they tried to
stop Mr.. Gompers.
(4) Now, as to the boycott and
the blacklist. Just put on your
thinking-cap, and follow me. What
is the blacklist? The corporation
gets a grudge against you and dis
charges you: it does not want you
to get another job: it, therefore, fol-
lows you up; and, if you obtain an
other position, it notifies the en-
ploying corporation that you are on
their blacklist,-that you are a dan
gerOus man and ought to be dis
charged. You are, accordingly, fired.
You go to another corporation and
get another job. BY the same proc
ess as before, you are again fired.
This happens to you, again and again.
until you are finally convinced that
they are all dead against you, and
that you can not get work anywhere
In other words, you are boycotted.
Isn't that plain and simple enough?
THE BLACKLIST is SIMPLY THE
CORPORATIONS METHOD OF
BOYCOTTING THE UNDESIRABLE
WORKMAN.
Now, let's see how the boycott, as
applied by the labor unions, works.
BY publication, or otherwise. you
take patronage away from a certain
mill, or a certain Stove and Range
Company: you prevail upon every
body who will listen to you to refuse
to buy their goods or to refuse to
work for them. If you succeed with
your plans, the Stove and Range
Company become convinced that they
can not manufacture and sell goods:
every hand is turned against them.
In other words, they are boycotted.
Are not the two cases precisely SINH
lar, in principle? 1t is merely a
question as to whose OK the boycott
bull cores. The fact that one is a
Millionaire corporation, and the other
is just poor man who has a wife
and about thirteen children, doesn't
make the least bit of difference. in
the principle of the thing.
AS to what wage-earners will do if
they have the power,-look at what
some of the corporation chiefs have
done, after they had climbed to
wealth and power, from the station
of wage-earners. The old Adam that
