In these days the members of or

of organized labor to look for the label
before purchasing any commodity
In the early seventies there was a
strike of cigarmakers in st. Louis, and
they used red label to distinguish
the union made from the non union
product. and they won their strike,
When the Chinese coolies began TO

The Comet.

It's tail is always a streamer pointing
away from the sun because-why?
No agreement among scientists on that
point. / will give my version. At
traction of graviation-no one knows
what it is-gives the comet a momen-
tum without which momentum it could
not come inside the orbit of Saturn.
The elements near the sun are so dense
that they would float the comet far out
in space were 1t not for it's momentum.
Therefore when 1t neaFs the sun those
elements--the suns electrosphere--re-
sist the comet and the lighter or VOL
atil elements are thus driven away
from the sun and form the tail.
