CIVIC LEAGUE WORKS
WITH COMMISSIONERS

Grand Forks, N. D., June 27.-The
pure food, committee of the civic
league has been doing excellent work
1t has investigated the conditions sur-
rounding the preparation and yend-
ing or many of the food articles used
In this city. 1t has discovered manv
detects, has called the attention of
interested parties to them, and In
very many cases has secured the will
ing cooperation of the makers and
vendors Of goods, who were glad to
get in line with the pure food move
ment when the matter was brought
10 their attention. In some cases II
has been necessary to bring some
pressure to bear and this has been
done carefully and discreetly.
Already there are evidences of inn
provement. Food is handled in
more clearly manner. Goods are not
exposed to dust and flies, as was the
Old custom. Articles which were ex-
posed for sale in the open air. at the
risk OF all kinds of contamination are
now Kept under glass by many of the
merchants, and more of them are
equlpping themselves with modern
sanitary appliances. The ladies of the
committee have worked hard TO hiring
this about, and are to be congratulate
ed on their success.
Thus far the committee has worlrad
without funds, but some funds will
De needed If the work Is to be pushed
forward as 1t should be. Some sort
or regular inspection must be provid-
ed for. Some money could be very
probably spent In carrying on a work
OF education among the people. If
the habits and customs of that filthy
and disgusting pest. the house f1v
could be brought home to every ner-
son IN the city, the problem would
not be problem very long. To Mace

an average of forty-eight hours
per week receive an average of
forty cents per hour.
Ii other words the stone cut
tiers working about half the time
of the hot blast men receive at the
end of the week much larger
wages.
TO look at it in another way, a
hot blast man during his life sells
to his boss an amount Of labor
about equal to that sold by two
stone cutters during their life.
THE HOT BLAST WORKER
GIVES IN ONE LIFE WHAT
ONE STONE CUTTER WOULD
NEED TWO LIVES TO GIVE
AND HE GIVES THE LABOR
OF TWO LIVES FOR LESS
MONEY THAN. A STONE CUT
TER RECEIVES FOR THE LA
Dor OF HIS ONE LIFE.
Think Of this and then consider
how tragic it is that one must act
ually persuade working men to be-
lieye in industrial unity.
1t is almost impossible to be-
lieye that any. class of the, workers
should be blind to the value Of I'M
ionism or both to suffer almost
anything to achieve it.
And what astounding evidence
Of working class stupidity it
would be if the workers of this
country should without fight allow
their unions to be crushed and
their right of organization taken
away by the capitalist, legislature
and courts.
The value Of unity is SO clear,
the gains for those who have un-
tied are so evident and the neces-
sity of organization for all work
ers is SO great that it would seem
that men if they have intelligence
to fight for anything they would
fight for this.

The actions Of those higher up in

should be condemned rather than imi
tated. This fact has recently been
made clear BY the action of Our Alice
Mrs. Longworth INDUCES in the
cigarette habit, and Z. boasts of the
soothing erect it has upon her. This
habit, if INDUCED in by one Of the low

grading. and the user would be con-
demned and deemed unfit for society.
Because of the different stations in
society, should make no difference in
the condemnation of the act performed.
Every girl and woman in America
should look upon this act of Mrs.
Longworth with; bitter disdain. The
indulgence of this habit, while it may
give the desired soothing effect is for
another pirpose-that Of keeping alive
the spark of popularity which has be-

Every act of the Roosevelt. family
has been noted by the American peo-
