ORGANIZE THE UNORGANIZED! That is to be
the slogan for Wheeling The unskied workers, men,
women and children must be organized The situation
slso serious that this step is made necessary In many
instances the unorganzed have been forced to pay from
their earnings the increased secured by the
organized workers Girls and boys particularly girls
working in Wheeling establishments for pitiably small
wages. IL this has effect it is stunning them
Often the wages Of all the child workers Of the family fa

because they work he idle for the low wage children
have taken the place Of their higher wage father in in
dustry.
So for their sake we must organize them 1t viii
mean better wages for the shorter hours and better
working conditions By this they will be enabled to grow
ito nobler and luster manhood and womanhood.
But the appeal can be made to the selfish instincts
the already organized In few years the children vii
have grown up. Industry constantly changing toward
industralisn- from the skilled trade The skilled
mechanics field is being constantly narrowed If he fails
to adapt himself to this condition he will be without
job and eventually without union. The increas
ing army Of the unskled will encroach upon his trade
like the oceans rising tide upon the sands of the seashore
UNTIL finally there will be but here and there lonesome
helpless unon standing, like barern rocks being slowly
enveloped
It may be too late then to organize the mskilled thai

these workers will have been crushed into 'sum prole

So is not charity, not brotherlness that ap

coal shipments in the first seven
months of 1913 were over 100000

this years production of anthracite
coal will exceed the high record OF
1911. which was 1884, 299 tons, and
pass the 100000 ton mark. The

339,706 tons as against 40,113,648 tons

The memorable hand of Time has
finally brought to rest one of Che
greatest warriors who ever espoused
the cause of thed owntrodden and op-

August Bebel, the Lion of the Ger

The Socialist Party of Madison
County, Indiana, joins with the work

our German comrades in mourning the
death of him who, more than any other
man, may be called the brilder and
engineer of the most stupendous ma
chine ever controlled by Labor-the
German Social-D Democratic Party. 4
In this sorrow of the mourning mil
lions of the workers of the world there
can be no benumbing throb of despair.
| Our grief is that of a great and loyal
army which sees its beloved general
diem obly while leading the victorious
fighting line.
| We grieve to know that the eyes of
him who will always be our leader will
not kindle to see our battle banners
kissed by the smiling sun in the gold

with his last words of encouragement
and admonition ringing in our memory,
we will storm the last crest of the bat

wherever human aspirations unite in

so luxurious a feeling and appear
ance as wrappings Of fur-"wrap-

ngurative. for this Winter the fur
stoles are broad and long, and are
actually wrapped about the wear
er's figure.
Such a stole as have in mind I
am sending you picture of. This
was worn by a very chic actress at
a reception the other day. 1t is
very long. II 1t was worn in the old
manner, plainly across the shout

door. But 1t is wrapped about the
figure in becoming fashion. This
FUR is the expensive Russian sable,
the lining being a most delicate yell
low. Contrasts In furs and Innings
are very smart this season.
The muff, like all the fur NUTS
this year, is smaller than for three
years, and fat. almost square In
shape. Muffs OF satin and supple
velvet, on the contrary. are very
large and round, and frequently
draped. Such NUTS are built of the
fabric Of which the costume is
built.
Moleskin. in spite OF its fragility,
continues to be a very great ia
vorite. A wrap which | saw at a
recent opening. and OF which ! am
sending you a picture, was made of
this fur in what call a chessboard
effect. II was longer in the hack
than in the front. and there was an
effect of draping which was very
smart indeed. Tailless ermine col

touch-to the coat

Owing to the great advances made
by the furriers IN the treatment OF
skins. the furs of the moment lend
themselves TO eftects-particularly
odd effects-which were impossible
with the skins OF few years ago.
