CHURCH AND LABOR IN HISTORY

halls of justice, repositories of archi-
YES, and even labor, exchanges, they
were all these at once.
The Lollards, an enthusiastic band
of religionists Of the fourteenth and
fifteenth century, in spite of much that
was narrow in their religious propa-
ganda, nevertheless rendered a valu-
able service for the people. The work
ing classes identified the Lollard
teachers with their emancipation in
the past and their progress in the
present. The villagers and craftsmen
whispered the names of those men
with respect and affection whom the
landowners prescribed. They hid
them in the day of peril, though their
means of concealment must have been
imperfect, just as they secreted those
fragments of the Bible and their COM
ments on it's teaching which seemed
to them to be the irreVersible charter
of their liberties and of their hopes.
The Peasants war was largely due
to the influence of these religionists
of the day. The leaders of the Ana
baptists and those of the Reformation
joined hand in hand with Labor in the
attempt to destroy the intolerable
economic conditions from which they
were suffering. 1t was terrible con
fIict. Fifty thousand peasants perish

liberty which they had already won.

LABEL TALKS.
(By 3. A. RooSTER.)
w q =.

Some of you, by reason of the trade
union, are able to occasionally get a
little something beyond the mere
necessities of life. Some of you have
music in your homes. want to ask
you if you have ever thought about
the union label on your piano, or
organ or other musical instrument.
Now, if you were on strike and need
Led assistance, you would welcome
help from the Piano, Organ and
Musical instrument Workers Union.
And if your place were taken by a
musical instrument worker who was
out of joy, you would railaat him as
scab. Yet you, when you buy non
labeled musical instrument, are not
only refusing to give any help to the
brother members of a labor union,
but you are actually employing scab
labor that is fighting as hard as it
can, the efforts of the union musical
instrument workers to better their
conditions. This ought to make you
ashamed of yourself, very much
ashamed.
If you belong to bard or orchestra
and blow your wind into a scab in
strument, Gust as you blow your wind
about your unionism in your union
meetings., you are the most to be
condemned-you are worse than the
street car man who wears a scab
made uniform.
Wage up! Realize that unionism
does ont begin and end with your own
particular craft, or with your own lit
tie self, but that the only kind OF
unionism that is worth carrying a
card for, or printing paper for. or
shouting for, or paying dues for, is the
unionism that embraces all the men
and women of all the crafts. If you
buy ten articles and niife of them
have the union label, you are but nine.
