the coming election and will oppose any
attempt at making patchwork of it,
we are firmly of the belief that the fire
department should receive attention at
the hands of the voters and that money
should be voted to that department that
would increase its efficiency as a fire
fighting force and raise the general
standard of the department. Everett Is
not the only city that has locked the
barn after the horse was stolen, nor
will it be the last. The crazy belief in
fatality accredited to the Turk and the
Hindoo isn't altogether absent in Am
erican municipalities. Like the Arkan-
sas traveller, ''When it rains we can't
patch the road and when it doesn't rain
we don't need to- Sooner or later every
city has its baptism by fire, and it is
then that the city pays for its negli-
gence in providing ample fire fighting
facilities. If we are wise, we will take
out fire insurance by providing the
fire department with money to bring
the department up to the hibhest state
of efficiency possible.

clusion of the business session the doors
were thrown open to union friends of
the painters and some $50 men gathered
around the banquet board and listened
to the able address of President He'd
ricks and the remarks of the local
leaders. Pres. Hedricks complimented
the labor movement of the west for its
viriity and remarked that a close hand
view of western labor conditions was an
eye-opener to the eastern resident. He
declared the Northwest Conference OF
Painters, a session of which he had just
attended at Portland, to be of great
benefit in solidifying the craft
The Mcnamara case was reviewed
and an appeal made that the attorneys

The president spoke for over an hour,
touching on various phases of the labor
movement.
The Journal has one suggestion to
make to International officers visiting
the great Northwest. 1t is possible to
get transportation from Seattle to
Everett at any hour of the day and it
is but little over an hours ride between
the two cities. Thirty separate crafts
are organized in Everett and they have
a labor movement of no mean quality.

their executive officers when they come
as near as Seattle and extend to them
the bounty of their hospitality.

evidence that our women feel that they
have the work of a wondrous age to
do; that they are going about it with
all seriousness and with a will. While
the meeting was in sharp contrast to
the one of week before in that it was
purely business session, there was
every indication to show that women
have a grasp of civic and social duty
beyond the four walls of the home. And
despite the towering pile of domestic
duty and household service they are go
ing ioyfully out TO DO THE WORK
which will build up a strong auxiliary
to the Everett labor movement.
The constitution and bylaws which
was presented by the committee was
voted on seriatim and finally adopted
and the committee instructed to have
four hundred copies printed.
1t was voted to have a special meeting
for Friday afternoon at the Labor Tenn
Pile to discuss plans for Labor Day, and
all members are urged to respond by
being present. The Mattresses union,
the laundry workers union and, we
trust, the clerks union, will be repre-
scented in the parade, and it is fitting
that our league should show its
strength. Our league embodies the wo-
men safe and secure in the shelter of
their homes, the mothers whose hearts
and minds are expanding to live and
care for and support by their united
strength ALL children of society, all
those who are out in the world at work.
We want them to know that back of
them in their. struggles for better condi-
tions and the right to live decently,
stand our home women in their securi-
ty, ready to lend a hand at any and
all times, using their social power to
create such healthful conditions around
the women in industry that the easiest
way" will be the best way, physically,
mentally and spiritually.

not overlook, two recitations given in a

The women in the labor movement of
Everett are to have a corner in the La
Dor Journal all their own, to use at
their own discretion tor indiscretion)
as to what goes in. The editor of the
Journal has spoken, and that same
young editor who Yields the caustic pen
is going to have nothing whatever to
say about what goes into this woman's
corner We assume all risks, all respon
sibility and liability; we WELD the blue
pencil in this realm and we are going
to indicate where we as women stand
on some social and eneconomic ques-
tions both material and ethical Let
our brothers be warned; we have never
had an opportunity like this before, and
we do not intend to use our space for
jelly recipes.
Now, a woman's column, according to
a mans point of view, should be occu
pied with discussion about cookery the
kitchen, the care of children, the latest
fashions in clothes and moral nstruc-
tions.
If such We're true logic, then we would
suggest that mans corner should be
devoted to sporting news, the races,
baseball games, much about toboccO and
"fish' stories.
We women insist on being human be
ings as well as females, and in our cor
ner are going to have topics of human
interest, for we believe that society is
calling to the mothers; that this man
made world needs the women as well
as the men to supply human needs, and
we are going to raise our voices and use
our every influence in daily association
through our social action in the Card
and Label League and by our pens in
our Women's Corner to rouse the wo-
men in our ranks who are not yet af-
filiated with us, to the necessity of so
cial action and solidarity.
We want to thank the Journal for
giving us this space We know that wo-
men can always count on organized la
Dor in any social undertaking they at
tempt. We have a fellow-feeling-the
men workers and the women, for both
have been "bullied and sat upon" re-

mortal, and both are beginning to rebel

place which Des Moines is today, could
be developed in so short a time from the
Des Moines of four years ago, is simply
a wonder If it could be brought to the
realization of other cities, it would be
certain to prove the most potent argu-
ment for the new system.
Another illustration is the experience
of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, a town of about
thirty-five thousand inhabitants which
recognized its government under the
commission plan simultaneously with
Des Moines.
The former government had regular
ly spent more than its income: its war
rants We're commonly at a discount, com
polling excessive prices for supplies.
When heavy warrants We're outstanding
and there was no cash to pay them, the
city would fund them into bonds; and
so a bonded debt of $4,000 existed
when the new government took hold.
Immediately the city's business was
put on a strictly cash basis. Warrants
that had formerly sold at eighty-fiye
cents jumped to par; the town began
claiming the cash discount given to
dealers. An inventory of city property
was made. and, when all liabilities were
deducted, it was found that the city had
net values of S453OOO.
When the new plan had been in OPP
Grafton for three years a new inven-
tory was made. The three year showing
was that the city had
Reduced taxes each year.
Spent more on public Improvements
in three years than in the preceding ten
years.
Paid off 5l55,O0O of its bonded debt.
Paid its bills every week, and regu-
larly eceiyed the cash discounts.
Employed more men than ever be
fore, and paid higher wages.
A good exhibit, this, for a town which
had never even known before how it
stood, except that year by year its gen
eral financial condition was a little
worse than before.
Conservative people are frequently
fearful of the iniatiye and the recall;
but in experience these provisions have
seldom been invoked, and when they
have the percentage of successful and
desirable results has been decidedly higher
than in municipal elections held under
the older svstems.* That the re-
call is SO seldom employed is explained (
by commission government advocates on /
the ground that the double, non-partisan
election assures the selection OF men /

These Youngsters Yer,
Likely TO Be the Stars.

In these days of worlds champion
ship baseball games with seasoned old
veterans famed for their ability to
stand the gaff," something of a nov
city is promised by the Giant-Athletic
series, if it is to be the Giants and the
Athletics who fight 1t out.
There are several youngsters among
Mack's McGraw's players, but
there are only two who can be really
classed as kids, Jack McInnes. Mack's
first baseman. and Arthur Fletcher.
McGraw's shortstop.
McInnes-"Stuffy." they call him
is one of the players who was spotted
by Mack long before he was out of his
teens and signed, while still in beard
less youthdom. He subbed in various
in1eld positions until this year. when
he superseded the veteran Harry Davis
on first. "Stuffy' celebrated his
twenty-f1rst birthday the other day by
slamming out a couple of long hits and
putting another game on the ice for
the Athletics.
Fletcher, the other kid, is 22 years
old. He got a regular berth three
months ago. after serving two seasons
as a substitute player. He learned to
play ball on the lots of E~dwardsville,
ILL.,, where he was born. Later he re-
moved to Colingwood, ILL.,. where he
now makes his home. He went to

.Spacklins Gives Tips on
How TO Kick.

There are many kinds of kicks in
football and as many ways to make
them. The most common is the long,
high purt. Mckay, Browns captain last
year, vas the best man I ever saw at
this STYLE said Earl Sprackling, Of
Brown. HE held the ball at arms
length and on a level with his head,
the ball pointing in at Tn angle of
thirty degrees. He brought his leg up
straight to the knee until his foot
turned inward at the same angle as the
ball. He caught the ball IN the side,
giving 1t the spiral twist. His kick
continued through until his foot was
over his head.
'In the East the long, low punt is
gaining favor. The ball travels about
ten yards high, and Is hard to handle.
Pennsylvania quarterback had this
kick down fine last year. His kicks
would travel through the air for
twenty yards, hit the ground, then roll
forty to fifty yards more.
"The drop kick and place kick will
be more important this year, for there

is a lack of scoring plays within the
twenty-yard line. A team must have a
man who can make field goals. The
place kick gives more distance, but is
less accurate than the drop kick, be-
cause two men handle the ball in the
former.
"a drop kick is usually made by
dropping the ball with a slight tilt
backwards. When II touches the
ground the toe hits the ball IN the
under side.
1.-THE ball should be dropped on a
level spot. Keep your eye on the ball
after gauging the distance and direc-
ton of the goal-post.
1.-THE quarterback does his heavy
work when the team is on the offensive.
On the defense he must be a sure
tackler and a sure handler of punts.
In open field tackling don't run up to
the mar with the ball. 1t gives him a
chance to dodge. Wait for him. Feint
from left to right. Puzzle him. Then
tackle him low. A high open-field
tackle is a calamity.
"If the man with the ball is running
diagonally across the field drive him
toward the side line and keep him
there. so he can be forced out of
bounds. That is the surest way to get
him. But keep cool"
