BETTER THAN A LETTER

"Did you ever stop to think" says
an exchange, what great labor saver
the home paper is as means of COM
munication with absent friends? Write
to me often, is the last command the
one breaking away from home ties 30
often gives to those left behind. In the
rush and hurry of every day very few
people nowadays have time to devote
to correspondence of the leisurely kind
the people of other days kept up with
auch unvarying punctuality, and here
is where the home paper saves a world
of trouble. 1t is better than a letter,
for it contains news that letter does
not. Items of interest are in it that
the writer of letter might not know
or overlook. 1t is wonderful how eager
w one devours a home paper when a
stranger in o strange land. Even the
people you do not know intimately
while ut home, become of absorbing
interest to you when you read that they
have died or married or figured other
wise prominently in the home affairs.
IL there 10 some one of your family
away from home, try sending them this
paper regularly and q letter occasion
ally and see if they do not appreciate
the favor of the paper. Better have
the Advertiser sent to some friend or
relative. 1t will only cost you $3.50
for whole year.

HOTEL MEN ASK FOR
POLICE PROTECTION
Admit Today That Striking Walters
Have Gained the Upper Hand--May
Make Strike Wider

New York, May 31-The hotel men
admit that the walters have gained
the upper hand in their fight and have
appealed to the police to protect the
hotels against the striking walters.
The leaders of the striking walters
are emboldened by their success here
and declare that they will make the
strike general all over the country.
More than thousand walters and
cooks last night jointed the ranks of
the striking hotel and restaurant work
ers. They came from the Aston, Plaza,
Gotham, st. Regis, Imperial, and
Prince George Hotels, the cafe Louis
Martin and the Elks' Clubhouse in
West Forty-third street. All of the
men walked out during the dinner
hour, but without any disturbances.
The arrangements of the different
places pressed into service other en-
ployes as walters, and with their Grip
pied kitchen stats managed to get
through the evening.
At the Hotel Aston, w. G. Muschen-
helm brought down 200 strike break
ers from one of the upper floors, and a
few minutes after his walters had quit
the dining room again opened for bust
ness.
Manager Blocklinger, of the union
announced that the strike would con-
tinue until the union was given full
recognition by the employers. Salts
fed that they were now ready TO
grant the demands for increased wag-
es and better working conditions, he
declared that until the union was rec
ognized the purpose of the strike
would not be attained. If necessary
he said, a demonstration of the
strength of the union would be made
by calling out the cooks and night
forces of the Childs restaurants.
