MENACE TO AMERICA
Washington, March 5.-"Thea
so-called open shop is menace to
America.
"The open shop is not a shop
where union and non-union men
work side by side. 1t is a shop
from which union men are ex-
cluded if they live up, to union,
principles.

of employers persist in their eff
forts to crush unionism, the
states and congress will curb the

The above statements were,
made today by Seth Low, presi-
dent of the Civic Federation at
the opening of its annual conven-
ton here today. 3.
Lo wdefended Samuel Comp

Federation of Labor. He says
there was no question but that
Gompers made a mistake, not in
assuming the innocence of the
McNamaras, but in branding as
the enemy of union labor every
one who believed them guilty. !
Low said that the employers,
and the employers alone, by their ,
attitude toward union labor, were
responsible for the wave. of revo-
lutionary socialism that has
swept over the land.

CHAPTER XIV.
The Net Tightens.

Number SO 1-2 st. Phillip street prov
ed to be howell, in the front portion of
which an old woman sold charcoal and
/ kindling. Leaving Bernie on guard,
Blake penetrated swiftly to the rooms
behind, paying no heed to the crone's pro-
| testations. In one corner a slender,
dark-eyed boy was covering, whom he
recognized at once as the lad he had
seen on the night of Donnelly's death.
You are Gin Cressi," he said quietly.
The boy shook his head.
"Oh, yes you are, and you must come
with me, Gino."
The little fellow recoiled. "You have
come to kill me-" he quavered.
NO. no, my little man. Why's should
1 wish to do that?"
IT am a Sicilian. you hate me-"
THAT is not true. We hate only bad
Sicilians, and you are a good boy"
81 did not kill the chief"
True! You did not even know that
those other men intended to kill him.
You were merely told to wait at the
corner until YOU saw him come home.
Am 1 right?'
81 do not know anything about the
chief" Gino mumbled.
But it was plain that some of his
fear was vanishing under this unexpect-
ed kindness. Blake had a voice which
won dumb animals and smile which
made friends of children. At last the

his hand into the strangers,
"They told me to hide or the Ameri-
cans would kill me. Madonna mia, 1

You will not harm me?"

But the boy still hung back, STAN

see, I know nothing. Perhaps had
better wait here"
But you will come, to please me, will
you not? Then when you find that the
policemen will not hurt you, you will
tell us all about it. Ell, carino?"
He led his shrinking captive out
through the front of the house, whence
the crone had fed to spread the alarm,
and lifted him into the waiting cab.
But Bernie Dreux was loath to ac-
knowledge such a tame conclusion to
an adventure upon which he had built
high hopes.

| "That'u be finei' DreuX declared, his
pride revolving at what he considered a
cowardly retreat. He had come along

add lustre to his name and he did not

3 Working For the Boss 3
THE TOUGH JOB

THE famous African explorer,
Henry NJ Stanley (his name
was really John Rowlands)
knew what it meant to face a hard
situation, to perform IA difficult
piece of work. In fact, he worked
on the Tough Job SO much that he
began to think out the philosophy
of it.
Here is the way he sized it up:
The bigger the work, the
greater the joy in doing it.

that for this task was he born.
Don't think of the morow's
task, but what YOU have to do

when it is over rest tran
Quilly and sleep we'll"
Good cheerful philosophy isn't
it? But what is it all about?
Wen. it is something like this:
Work a Developer.
A good tough job gets a man
thinking. When a man thinks he
is exercising the highest faculty he
possesses. And the more he exer-
cises that faculty the more of
man he viii be pretty soon.
Now, when a man gets to be
more of a man, his future is as Sc

The answer to the druggists
question is this:
Probably they did not see it be-
cause they had had no experience
in the real estate value line.
But there is another answer
which deals with the German.
He had the courage to follow up
his belief in his Judgment That
comes always from exercising the
judgment in hard jobs and getting
on friendly terms with them. OF
laying hold of them and wrestling
with them until they are down and
you are sitting on top of the pile.
Any job that puts YOU face to
face with plenty of trouble is worth
fortune because it is the expe-
rience of doing tough jobs that
leads a man TO fortune.

The druggist across the street
asks this question: How was it that
some of the business men in this

chance? The man that cleared the

was a German who could scarcely
