ward to America as future market
for his bacon and butter. Formerly
he did not consider the American
market, for it looked as II the local
farmers could supply it for many
years to come, but he now realizes
that there is not enough bacon and
butter Of the best quality produced
there to meet the increasing demand.
Some of the big New York hotels
have made inquiries as to the prices
at which they can get the Danish
products, and the matter. Will soon
be under discussion by the rural CO.
operative societies of Denmark.
These societies will not attempt to
compete with a low priced article,
and the tariff may be the obstacle
which will prevent the export OF
much Danish bacon and butter to
the United States.

Protection and Wages.


The Democratic press in this state,
especially the Acladksburg Exponent,
Us very much distressed over the fact
that American manufacturers have
a market abroad, entrance to which
necessitates lower prices for export
goods than the same kinds of goods
are sold at home.
The very fact that American
goods do not sell as high abroad as
they do at home is an argument
against the free trade theory. Lower
prices obtained for American ex-
port goods Is a result of low market
prices abroad. In some instances at
least, for instance right at home, the
export goods are made at lower
wage rate than those of home con-
sumption. AS has been pointed out
by the Telegram the tin plate com
pany here has a foreign trade and
its goods are sold cheaper than IN
this country, but the tin plate work
ers receive less wages for making
the export goods than tho goods sold
in the United States by. that concern.
If the workers did not accept "a lower
wage for making these export goods,
1.-THE company would not enter the
market abroad. 1t would have no ex-
port trade for the reason that such
trade would not justify the com
pany. This certainly proves that
protection at home gives the workers
better wages than If there were no
protection and the principal reason
the company has an export trade is
to keep its mills constantly run
ming. In other words the export
trade ii filler for the tin plate
workers. sand they are thus enabled
To- work more days in the year than
| If taefe we're no export trade, 1t is
Itrls th sy &receive less for making
the export goods but that is far bet
ter than having no work to do and
notwages coming in. $1,000
The Exponent wants the prices Of
American manufactured goods sold
as low as the export goods are. Its
want shows that 1t wants the TN
plate worker here to receive no more
wages for making goods for" the tn!
American market than he gets for
making export goods. In other
words the Exponent wants the
workers. wages reduced.
Low wages. in the country's his
tory have always been associated
with hard times while good wages
have always accompanied good
times. If the Exponent is seeking to.
precipitate hard times, it is quite
consistent in urging that lower
wages be paid.

elected John j. Davis, venerable
member of the Democratic party, as
its chairman, notwithstanding the
fact that the Democratic party in

not sent because he was an avowed

SUNDAY SCHOOL INSTITUTE
 AT TRENIT YCHURCH
Two Speakers Heard on the General Topic, Choosing Sunday School Material.

There was good number present at the Sunday school institute con- ducted under the direction of the Sun day school commission of the diocese in the Trinity Episcopal church Tues day evening. From 7.30 to 8 o'clock there was an exhibit of literature and articles to be used in Sunday school work The general topic for the meeting was Choosing Sunday School Material At o'clock Miss Jane Mil- likin opened an interesting and help full talk on elementary materials, speaking on methods of instruction for children under F years.
 The second speaker was Rev. George R, Gilbert, whose theme was Advanced Work He said in part: The period of from F to 16 years is the critical period for the Sunday school pupil After the child passes the 18th birthday the trouble begins Seventy five per cent of the children of the Sunday school, boys and girls drop out at this age. Of the boys alone 90 per cent. drop out. This is a time when the boy turns away from girls and women teachers and towards men. It is period of hero worship worship of brawn. It is unfortunate that a large percentage of teachers ol boys of this are are women. But il the woman has such a class, let hel | take interest in that which interests 1 the boys. Athletics in general ar, 1 what fills the boys mind and tht 1 teacher will become interested II l sports, study the thoughts and Ian. guage of the boy, sine will hold his in. | terest.
 i The boy does not worship goodness or wisdom but strength and if tn teachers strength is impressed upol
 the boy, the latter will take mucl more interest in what the teacher says 1 One of the principal needs of the bo is course of study for boys. Tn speaker here mentioned number 9 books and methods which would prov
 of interest to the boy.
 The organization of the Sunda 1 school class proves effective in aWak
 ening interest in the work of tn
 school Let the pupils elect thei
 own officers and assist the teacher ] conducting the work of the class.
 After the age of 16 the boy begin
 woman worship andn then his atten tion is more easily held by the woma
 teacher
 At the close of Rev Mir Gilbert
 talk he answered a number of ques
 tions pertaining to the work of tn Sunday school and there was a gen
 eral discussion.
