WHAT LABOR NEEDS.
Chicago Minister Pleads For Better
Conditions For ToiIers.

Chicago Minister Pleads For Better
Conditions For ToiIers.
Professor George RurmaD Foster of
the University of Chicago in the
course of a recent sermon at the Third
Unitarian church. Chicago. made a
plea for better surroundings for the
laboring man. He said:
ION every hand you hear the de-
mand for social reform. and regularly
you hear the reply: First make the
individual better. If men were better.
Drawer. more industrious. these condi-
| lions would soon he better But the
question remains: How are we to get
this new and better man? What can
| be done about it?
LET the wage be such that the la
borer can have a home of light and
| joy and sunshine in Il decent locality.
Let the laboring mems women not
have to go to factory and days work
outside. but have time and strength to
| be women. mothers. wives and make
| cheerful homes In this way we can
help them to achieve an inner life.
above all. we may help the laborer
to assume a different attitude to his
work. So long as his work is alien to
him, SO long as he works only for the
sake of the wage, just SO long is he a
| wage slave, and we cannot expect a
slave to love his slavery or to have
| joy in his work. Then. too. while la
Dor organizations must be preserved
| and protected. they must add a new
| function, that of lending joy and no.
bility and skill to labor.
"Thus do men become new men. 1t
is true that good men can grow in the
| worst surroundings. But that is Gods
business. Our business is to make the
surroundings as healthy as possible.
| 1t does little good to talk to men
| about God and yet leave them in their
| wretched lot How can these men be-
lieve in Gods wisdom and goodness
| in world of mammonism, heartless-
| ness and cruel struggle for existencef

UNIONS BUILD CITY.
San Francisco Monument to Organ
ICED Workers.

San Francisco Monument to Organ
ICED Workers.
"Since the time of the earthquake
San Francisco has expended $275, OOO.-
600 in rebuilding. every stick and ev-
cry stone OF which has been put in
place under union conditions"
This remarkable statement was
made by p. Fl. Mccarthy. labor mayor
of San Francisco. who was in Wash
ington recently with the Pacific coast
delegation asking congress to author
ize the holding of the Panama exposi-
ton at the Golden Gate.
and SO judge for yourself" contin-
ued Mccarthy, whether or not the
holding of the Panama exposition in
San Francisco in 1915 will not be for
the benefit of every working man. wo-
man and child in the United States"
McCarthy's stories of conditions in
the city where union labor holds po-
litical power were listened to with
deep interest by the Building Trades
council in Washington.
There is no city in the United
States or. as matter of fact, in the
whole world where the wageworkers'
standard of living is as high as in San
Francisco.
And as to industrial peace" de-
clared the carpenter mayor. there Is
a better understa nding. more harmony
between employers and employed, in
San Francisco than any other city in
the Union.
1.-The San Francisco Building Trades
council gave $1,000 toward the fund
for the exposition and will double that
gift if more is needed"
McCarthy's claims for a wonderful
working class prosperity in San Fran
cisco are borne out by the table of
building trades wages prepared by
William L. Spencer. secretary of the
building trades department of the
American Federation OF Labor. Here
are some of his comparative wage
scales in different cities for 1909 and
the present year does not materially
alter the comparisons:
Bricklayers in Chicago received per
hour 62H cents; in New York. 70
cents; in San Francisco. sly cents.
Plumbers in the same cities respec-
lively got 65. 62h and rs cents. Car
penters in the same order got 56A. 621a
and 625s cents: laborers and hodcar-
riers in Chicago 35 cents. in New York
35 cents and in San Francisco from
37R to 30 cents per hour.

II didn't promise to offer an insult"
"Stupidv'
"What do you mean"
cam 1 not a girl, and don't l know
what would please a grip
'You wouldn't wish a man you had
never seen to throw you a kiss, would
you?"
"Never seen! Do you suppose she
has never seen you?"
Il don't know that she has. Any
way, have no reason to suppose she
has noticed me-"
II have. l saw her casting glances
over here"
ooh, you see too much! I've been
watching her too. She hasn't taken
her eyes off the heel Of that stocking
since she has been at the window"
'There's nothing to be made Of a
fellow like you. Get me out some Of
your clothes. I'll put them on and do
the trick myself. You and I are the
image Of each other, and she won't
know the difference"
She put on just enough Of my clothes
to represent me and went to the win
dow, giving a loud "Ahem!' The girl
turned, and Alice threw her kiss.
The girl pulled down the sash with
bang and left the window apparently
in high dudgeon.
"There,' l said to Alice, you've
spoiled everything!'
"You mean I've started Irritation"
"What can do to-
Nothing. I'll do it for you. You'd
spoil it ALL"
But you're not here except occa-
sionally."
"I'm going to stay here. Get me
room for few days."
l would much rather have got rid OF
her, for l was sure she had offended
the girl opposite, and didn't wish her
to get me any deeper into the mire.
But she insisted, and secured room
for her. That afternoon the girl op-
posite sat down by her window with
her back turned to the light. She held
book in her hand.
"You see," said to Alice, ito escape
