Strikes
By GEORGE FITCH.
Author OF AT Good Old SiWash.s

A STRIKE Is a determination on the
n part of a large number of men to
1 Abstain from working in a firm and
vOciferous manner.
This is usually pretty hard on the men
and they lose weight rapidly because
their pay checks also refrain from work
during the strike and the cruel grocer
asks for cash in advance. But the strike
is not very hard on the owners Of the
factory whose employees are unanimously
resting. A factory which is enjoying a
strike is about as useless and expensive
as private yacht. 1t requires a tremen-
dous effort of the viii to envy the own
er of a factory whose workmen are all
on the outside picking daisies and brick
bats, while the interest charges and
taxes on said factory go relentlessly on.
Men do not strike for the mere Joy
of sitting around and waiting for last
weeks meal to materalize. They strike
because they have been abused, or I'M
derpaid, or imposed upon, or because
they want something, OF because clause
IS of the contract has been broken or
bent by the party of the second part
Nothing IN the line of argument APP
proaches a strike IN elOquence- Many a
body of men have argued with their en-
ployers for years without doing moro
than to Jar an @Ah, indeed" out of them,
and have then struck and have made said

employers see the whole point in less
than a month.
Strikes have been so successful that
almost all worlmen are now organized
and can strike whenever they feel ike
it. Moreover, almost all employers are
now organized and can tel the strikers
to 90 to thunder with great emphasis
Everyone is organized except the con-
sumer. The consumer ought TO have
sense enough to run a few strikes by
himself
What we need IN this country is

It would help a good deal

If the Allied Telephone Users were
to go out IN a body and parade the

Strikes are a grand thing If properly
used, but they are not appreciated by
the consumer and he in turn VIII not be
appreciated until he learns how to strike
with ease and grace on al occasions

THE BIBLE AND FREE THOUGHT.

Editor FL PasO Herald:
A recent contributor to The Herald
tells US benighted Christians that the
Bible is religious superstition" but
he leaves US in the dark as to how he
learned that we are living in such
gross ignorance
The same contributor says that for
the aforementioned reason the Bible
should not be taught to children till
they are old enough to reason. But
why teach them superstition" at ally
If il be bad for the little tots, why
can it be wholesome for the older Ones2
If We are to refuse to teach relig-
ion to children because men differ as
to certain religious beliefs, why not
refuse for the same reason To teach
them those sciences about which men
differ so much, such as geology as
trOnOmy, physics, etc2
The aforesaid contributor assumes
also that the Bible binds the mind so
that those who believe it are not free.
There is a sense in which no mind
is free 1t is the very nature Of the
mind to be subject to that which il
concelves to be truth. The infidel and
atheist are under this law as much as
is the Christian. A wicked mind NAV
rebel against what it believes to be
true. but it does so in conscious weak
ness knowing that truth will finally
conquer But obedience to truth brings
