REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

An easy way to avoid spats with a
woman is not to be married to her.
A man never has as much money in
the hearing of his family as of other
people.
The longer a man goes without pay
ing bill the more he gets to think he
never really owed it.
A woman has such an imagination
she knows how brave her husband Is
when he wants to go dow1stairs to see
If there are burglars. but doesn't be-
cause it would scare her more than she
already IN.

More Union Busters
Manufactprers' Association Of Brew

Just Organized.

Chicago, July 27-To add to the
galaxy of union busters associations,
now comes the Manufacturers Assoc
citation Of Brewers Equipment and
Supplies. In letter just issued by
this ainfant" association. the opening
explanatory sentence gives full view
of its intended scope:
AT the United States Brewers, As
sociation convention, held last June in
Washington, D. G., certain labor UNI
ion organizations made an attempt to
have the Brewers Association declare
itself to purchase machinery and sup
plies only from such manufacturers
who employ union labor exclusively
IN their factories. TO discourage, the
employers ii considering such a pro-
position, the manufacturers present in
Washington at The time hastily or
ganized the Manufacturers Associa-
tion Of Brewers, Equipment and Sup.
piles to demonstrate to them that
manufacturers were practically unit
against such an action Strength in
numbers that attended this meeting
made an impression which caused the
labor committee Of the Brewers As
ISOLATION to pigeonhoIe the demand
3of the u ms, ana it was not discuss
ed befoI the open meeting. The CON
sensns, Of opinion at the time was that
the Manufacturers desired to operate
open shops. and it IS the desire of this
association to foster and promote this
attitude
There has been growing sentiment
that the United States Brewers As
sociation should purchase equipment
and supplies from houses that are not
antagonistie to union labor. and this
sentiment S rapidly On the increase.
