SEEING THE
BIG THINGS
The Reverend Chas. Stelzle Contri-
butes an Interesting Article to
the Wage Farmers.

The microscope has its uses. But you
scope. You cannot get a broad view of
nature-the rivers, the mountains, the
green earth. You cannot see even a
single tree through microscope.
There are men who always look at
life through this little instrument. They
seem to have peculiar delight in search
ing for the small things in life-the pet
ty, the mean things, in others lives.
They never have vision. They never
take into the sweep of their horizon the
really great and good things. If they
were to be shown beautiful painting,
they would search for fly-specs upon the
frame. And because their outlook is
narrow, they become pessimistic and bit
ter and eensorious.
Unfortunately, the labor movement is
sometimes retarded by these unhappy in
dividuals. Occasionally they are found
within the ranks of the workers. They
are the ones who are dead weights to
the really earnest men who are bravely
making fight for better things. But
they are also found outside the labor
movement. To them, the labor movement
consists of unreasonable strikers and
SUBSCRIPTIONS agitators. They do not see
the millions of children in the mills and
factories who should be at home and in
the schools and for whom organized labor
is making strong fight, while the great
mass of even intelligent people are
strangely Indifferent to their struggles
They seem to be ignorant of the terrible
sweat sweat shop in which thousands of
the toilcrs are wearing out their lives
in the hopelessness of adject poverty, and
for whom the labor union almost single
handed is betting, in what is bound to
be winning fight.
| Who is doing more for the woman that
tolls? What institution stands deal for
our sisters and mothers? Not in a weak,
sickly, sentimental way, but with a vigor
and a redbloodedness that is sometimes
startling in its persistency and in its
Effectiveness.
Look through your telescope for little
lwhile-and forget the fly-specks. No
body likes them. We can't get rid of
them altogether, but there is something
else the horizon.

He was pounding vigorously ON the

her face was sufficient to check his en-

the stool and started toward her. his

CHARGED With
STEALING A
SCHOONER
(By United Press Leased wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
SEATTLE, March 16.-R. H.
McNair, president of thePulsbo
Single company, and c. F. Lamp
man are in the county Jail today
under the unusual charge of steal
ing a schooner, the jeanette,
which has been running in the
single trade on the Sound.
The complaint was sworn out
by G. A. Johnson, president OF the
Seattle Single company. 1t
seems that Johnson held a $1,000
mortgage on the boat. To secure
his claims, MeNair gave him a bill
of sale. McNair claims, however,
that the bill of sale was only a
formality and that the boat was
not turned over to Johnson. The
schooner was taken from the Bal
lard dock to Paulsbo where a dep
.uty sheriff found 1t.
