is told by the four quaint lines of
verse that deck the program of the
play.
If nothing else, Messrs. Hutcheson

The strike is over and II was an
nounced that because Of the great
accumulation Of orders on hand every
factory in the city would work over
time from now until Easter TO catch

The result is q compromise with
the unions securing very material
concessions. They win absolutely on
the question Of sanitary workshops
and abolition Of the sweatshops.
They compromise on the wage In
crease. Instead OF fat 10 TO %
per cent advance in wages there Is
an increase OF 81 week to all week

in the rate paid pieceworkers.
The employers agree to the open
shop plan and promise that there will
be absolutely no discrimination be
tween the strikers even though they
have been members Of strike or
picketing committees. All cases pend
Ing in court dealing with injunctions
are TO be dropped at once.
The question Of hours. which. after
the sanitary and wage problem. was
the most serious matter In dispute,
goes to arbitration.

staggered out into the roadway and

sinking it's teeth into something had
probably proved fatal.
So, when Carl Hutchkus, az years

staggered out to the street and died.
