Celebrating the recent entrance OF

Builders Association, which includes
exchanges In Maryland, the District OF
Columbia and other cities in Virginia,
prominent officers OF tho body addressed
members of the Richmond Association
last night, calling to mind their own
early difficulties and sounding warn
ings against the many pitfalls that be-
set the paths Of youthful organizations.
While they believed in organized labor
the speakers favored open shops and
offered many examples Of the dangers
arising from closed shop policies, which
are detrimental to builders and labor
ers alike when the strict rules OF the
variuos labor unions are adhered to-
John I. Trainor, OF Baltimore, pres
ident OF the Interstate Association, was
the first speaker. He asserted that the

advantage. and cited examples as to
why this plan is the best. "The open

months. Because Of his determined

number of arrests made by one man

During the nine months Chief Stanley
arrested nearly 200 persons. took forty
eight persons to the worl1house. and
collected S465.40 in fines. During the
previous year only $45 in fines was
collected. Since Stanley got on the

confined to length OF thigh and shank,
It is gain OF weight with but little
additional value.
The coloring OF this variety is a
ground Of black blazoned or shaded
with bronze. This shading is rich and
glowing. and when the suns rays are
reflected from these colors they shine
like polished Steel The female is not
as rich in color as the male. but both
have the same color and shadings.
Much OF this richness Of color is lost
through inbreeding. as it Is improved
by each cross with the wild specimens.
OF all our domestic fowls none suffer
from inbreeding so much as turkeys.
This should be guarded against at all
times, If it is hoped to gain the best
