The strike Settlement.

On every hand the remark that
81 am glad the tin plate trouble is
settled Is heard. With scarcely an
exception the residents of this com
munity anxiously awaited the re-
suits OF efforts to settle the strike
and when it became known that the
workers by a large majority had
voted to accept proposition made
by the company and return to work,
there was not only a great feeling OF
reSief but spirit of much rejoic-
ing. III u "a
The eagerness of the workers TO
return 10 work was indicated by the
ihunderous cheering, when the re
suit Of the vote was announced at the
mass meeting The willingness oil
the company to start the mill just as
soon as possible after the workers
had voted to return to work is also
an evidence of the mutual relations

min worker sees where he made .
mistake. ,The company has made .
concession or two. The situation
from every viewpoint = pleasing.
II So to be regretted that the
workers have lost their pay by be-
ing idle several weeks, but 1t is
matter Of congratulation that Clarks-
burg has shown that It can run It's
industrial AFFAIRS without the med
ding OF non-residents.
The strike leaders listened to the
agitator and dFsturber and thus the
workers were led into tdleness. An
industrial war could have been pre-
cipitated by overt acts on the part
OF the company or by bringing
strike-breaker into this field. The
company wisely concluded to do
nothing OF the kind but to give the
strikers themselves their own time
in which to conclude to return to
work. A proposition not objection
able to an overwhelming majority OF
the workers was obtained from the
company through citizens media
ton board. Agitators and dtsturbers
attempted and did hold on vote on
the proposition until the workers
took matters into their own hands.
When this was done, the settlement
was early and easy.
The experience doubtless will
cause industrial workers in this sec
ton to stop and think before they
again give heed to or follow the pro-
fessional agitator or disturber, with
which Clarksburg has been afflicted
entirely too much for orderly gov
eminent, peace and prosperity.

The sIanderer.

All of us perhaps would hold up
our hands in horror if accused of be-
ing a slanderer, yet how much of the
so-called innocent gossip INDUCED in
most communities is nothing
less than downright SANDER? How
often do we see bright young life
crushed and sometimes blighted by
the slanderous tale that probably
started from some thoughtless re-
mark or even significant look that
was grown and strengthened until
like a mighty serpent, it coils itself
around its innocent victim, choking
all the joy and brightness out of life.

Chautauquas and Agricultural.

Chautauquas have become highly
important recently in the teaching
OF agriculture. Each year." de-
cIaFes f. b. jerks in his annual re-
view OF agricultural instruction for
the United States Buresau OF Edu-
cation, THE chautauqua movement
becomes more decided factor in
the education of the farmer.
The programs, which in the early
history OF the movement consisted
principally of Bible study and recre-
alton, have Ibeen considerably broad
ened, and special features dealing
with farm life are becoming more
popular and more frequent. 1t is
now a common occurrence to FIND
these programs Offering courses in
stock judging, poultry raising, soils,
seed testing, household economy, etc.
Scores of new assemblies are or
ganized every year, and the favor
tie field Is the rural district. Over
800 local ehautauquas were held the
last season in Nebraska, Iowa, Hill
nois, Kansas and Missouri, mora
than 100 being held in towns with
an average population of only 500.
In some places boys and girls
clubs have been formed in connec-
ton with the c~autauqua, and ex-
hibitions and demonstrations OF
their work have formed an important
part of the program"
Announcer special agency in agri-
cultural education described by Mr..
jerks is the Grange, or to give It its
official title, 1.-The Order of Patrons
ofof Husbandry.'' Since its revival
in 1890, the Grange has developed
into the. largest, and most influential
national organization OF farmers
with o, 900 subsidiary oranges AMI
more than million members. Ed
ucational work is prominent in the
Grange, the lecturers hour" being
everywhere established. There is
frequently a. series of lectures on
some problem of agriculture by cor
respondence. Particularly import
I, ant has been the influence of the
Grange in having agriculture intro
duced into the public schools as
regular school subject.

Old Dollar Billie money seeking

outrage on official propriety and ma
tional dignity by the New York sun
and the evidence set forth by that
newspaper shows that the term is
particularly appropriate. Says the
Sun:
The old Commoner, the money
maker for William j. Bryan, has
been changed by him from weekly
to a monthly publication. In COM
men ding his magazine to Democrats
everywhere for the sake OF their dol
lars the editor and proprietor OF
the Commoner reminds them that ne
is now the secretary of state in
President Wilson'S cabinet and
therefore in a position to kno~
what is going on in the inner circles
of the federal administration with
regard to both International and do
nestle affairs. He also announces
that the Commoner may regarded as
the official organ of the United
States government; price only one
dollar year, or seventy-five cents
to clubs of five or more
In order that there may be no
doubt in any mind of the extent 70
which Mr.. Bryan is willing to work
his high official position at Wash
ington for the repletion of the money
drawer at Lincoln, Neb., we print
extracts, hitherto not considered,
from the appeal for subscribers
which the secretary of state makes,
over his own signature, in the num-

plain and straight, and without any
appearance of fulness although there
was ample freedom. The gown had
a short train. The decolletage was
V shaped, and unadorned.
Tosca, then, could have walked into
any Paris drawing room IN 1913 and
not have attracted a single question
ing look. In the day gown she wore
in the first act she could have at
tended a fashionable tea with equal
success. The only thing which made
the gown different from q modern
one was the large lowered pattern,
which is not seen nowadays.
Century Old Touches.
Theirs are several other century,
old touches in woman's toilette to-
day. Several women have been seen
carrying the long gold knopbed walk
ing sticks, held near the top, and tied
with a bow of ribbon, which you may
see in hundreds of old portraits in
almost any gallery. High Louis
heels, OF course, have been worn for
some time, but they fit admirably
into the present picture.
Nowadays the old custom of stud
ding them with jewels has been re-
vived. You buy your shoes at. ons

eler's to buy heels separately for
them. have seen such heels in the

Special Gable to The American.
PARIS, June 2s.-Havlng invented
new fashions for women year after
year without a single stop, it now
seems as if the brains Of the kings
and creators of modes IN Rue de la
Paix are at last played out and I'M
able to conceive new ideas. AS a
matter of fact none of the fashions
they have launched during the last
two years have made a hit.
1t is not long since the harem skirt
was talked of by everyone; before
that it was the hobble skirt and the
directoire period. AT the present mo-
ment there is a definite tendency TO
clothe women in the gowns and &C
cessories of hundred years ago. AS
yet the tendency is not very far de-
veloped; but 1t is none the less no.
ticeable.
Old Styles Come Back.
To take the gown itself, the drape-
ries can often be seen on dresses Of
hundred years ago, and even the
plain gowns, particularly evening
evening gowns, have their prototypes
at a similar period.

which is laid in 1900, F1oria was
wearing a gown which would have
attracted not the slightest attention
in a drawing room to-day, unless for
its beauty.
