~ He daily Improvement in Mrs.
Tafts health and strength gives
promise Of gayeues reasonably
TO be expected in this the first
season OF a new administration. The
new hostesses. irrespective OF personal
sorrows, are Invariably alert to make
records for themselves as doing their
fun duty by their Official positions.
Even though an official hostess is in
mourning. she lays it aside for the GER
tain functions which fall to her because
she is the wife of an official II is only
in the case of a few that they carry
their mourning into public so far as to
withdraw from the regular official af-
fairs. such as state dinners and recep-
tons. So that. I'm spite Of the mourning
IN several Of the Cabinet families. the
season. as a season, will not feel IT,
No surer evidence OF Mrs. Taft's entire
ability 20 re-enter official life as its social
leader than her shopping trip to New
York the past week She has never
looked better. nor has her interest in
al things social. musical, and intelIectu-
al abated
To the great majority Of new official
hostesses the duties Of their new posi-
lions are strange to them. II is one
thing to be a social leader in one OF the
large American cities, but it is quite an
other to preside over the household and
social affairs Of a high official in Wash
ington.
A different code is observed. and one
must have familiarity with people and
affairs, or he guilty Of serious bIunders
Therefore, the first and foremost thing
for that hostess TO do IS to obtain the
services or a capable social secretary
Without one. she is in danger of being
hopelessly involved IN tangles Of prece-
dence and things Of lesser importance.
The lack Of a social secretary Of ex-
perience and tact has cost many a man
his official career, owing 10 some inno-
cent blunder Of a well-meaning wife. So
while the debutante date, and wedding
trousseaux are literally absorbing the
minds and time Of many Of the winter
hostesses, the selection Of a secretary,
and Ito have or not to have" a secretary
is the harassing question in the minds
OF others.
This year is exceptional for debutantes
In resident society. Il Is also exceptional
In the small list Of buds in official circles
There are none. either in the Cabinet OF

This does not mean there are no YOUNG

If union men would insist on trading
with merchants who advertise in labor

workingmen, and the workers would let
them know their ads were seen. then the

The Labor Editors Get Little Con-

If labor paper editor or Il volunteer
organizer for labor were to be paid IA reg.

price and one-half for all overtime, in
Guiding double price for SUNDAYS, he
would have enough of this world s goods
i'll a few years to make him comfortable
the remainder of his days.-Ex
Would he? Sure he would, but that
time will never come
No matter how much time and thought
an editor devotes to making a labor pa
per reliable and fair to the employers as
well as employees, there seldom appears
an issue Of any labor paper that the
editor is not damned by some one for
some article, while no matter how many
good articles he writes he is semon
praised And were all his subscribers to
pay up promptly, he would think that
the world was coming to an end
AS to volunteer organizers, they some
times devote ten to twenty evenings to
form organizat ion, and when the or.
ganization is in full running order the
international union issuing the charter
will send Il check for the princely amount
Of five dolars-which in many cases he
donates on the charter fee to get the or
g:nization to going-with a request that
he attend the meetings of the local for
three or four months to instruct the
members.
1t is a peculiar situation that an or
gamer who tries to teach others how to
secure good wages and short hours, must
himself work extremely long hours for
practically nothing.
And the same conditions apply to the
organization committees of central bod
ics only more 50, as they get nothing but
criticism.

The only missing link in the trades
union movement has been the lack of ac
tive sympathy and operation of our
women. And this apathy on the part of
our women is not to be wondered at
when we consider the manner in which
they have been excluded from our meet
ings. We have gone off into halls with
closed doors which are barred against orr
wives. sisters and daughters. How. under
these circumstances, could they be ex
Fected to become actively interested in
our cause Our own members who do
not attend meetings soon become cold or
!nkewarm and lose active interest in the
work. Can we expect more of the wo
men than of our own members We
believe the wives, mothers sisters and
daughters of union men should be made
honorary members of local unions and
encouraged to attend all meetings. Once
get our women aroused in the interest of
un1on1sm and the victory is ours-The
