Let the gray creep softly, white

Let the dawn spread quickly,

Mellow globuIes swell and

Orange in a silver lake,
Mellow, yellow, pale and fallow.
Swoln to mountain, quilted in
hollow,
Grained with garnet, CLOSED

Warmly crimson, chilled and
hoary.
Elfs of light within, without,
Thread the fleecy ways about.
Snowy foods around them rise
From the breasts of paradise.
Settling, churning. wildly turn

Greatly shading, madly burn

Till beam doth pause, doth

Poised that breadth of lake and

And with dartle, strength and

Shoots the radiant gulf of morn

LOOKING FOR YOU.

Nobody but an employer knows how
earnestly an employer looks for business
ability in the young men and women
who are candidates for advancement.
Business ability never. goes unreward-
ed. Salary increases and promotions
come to the fit. the prepared.
Some young people are so eager to go
to work-so ambitious to make money
that they cannot bring themselves to
the point where they are willing to wait
a few months and spend a few dollars
in laying the foundation for future sue
cess.
They go straight to work-and regret
1t ever afterward. Or, after they have
learned their mistake. they think them
selves too old to start over and so to
school again-to the business school
where they should have attended before
going to work.
Don't make the mistake of going to
work before you have added to your sue
cess capital as much as possible in edu-
cation and discipline, for you will need
1t all in this grand century.

THE SHERMAN Law
FOR WAGE DISPUTES
The Law Now Used Against Labor
May Be Invoked In Its
Behalf.

The following is a story printed in an
evening Washington, d. c. paper: Not
only is the Bureau of Foreign and Domes-
tic Commerce to busy itself in investlgat-
ing the aL.airs of manufacturers who re-
duce wages or threaten to reduce wages
on account of tariff reductions, but the
Department of Justice is going to get into
the game. Criminal prosecutions, with
possible jail sentences. will be ordered
in all cases where anything like a com
bination or conspiracy to reduce wages
is disclosed, if it seems interstate trade
or commerce is affected and the case can
be brought under the Sherman antitrust
law Senator John Sharp Williams is
authority for the statement that this pol
icy will be followed. 1t is probable the
information will cause even more of
commotion among manufacturers than
did the declaration of Secretary Redfield
that the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce would investigate the books of
protected industries that reduce wages
The senator pointed out that the Sher
man law had been used against laboring
men for combining to secure increases in
wages. and that it was only just now TO
turn and use it against the employers
who combined to depress wages. 1t is
understood that special agents of the de-
partment of justice will cooperate with
agents of the Bureau of Foreign and Do
mestc Commerce in inquiring into the
facts in instances where there is any rea-
son to suppose a combination exists"
Organization Stops Cut.
The Pinkerton Tobacco company at To-
ledo, Ohio, endeavored to cut the wages
of its girl employees from 81 to s1-25 a
week The plant is a subsidiary one to
the tobacco trust. Many of the girls
were members of the old Tobacco Work
ers' union, and Immediately appealed to
the representatives of the Central Labor
union for assistance. A meeting was
called and all but two of the employees
we're present and an organization was
formed. AS soon as it percolated through
the mind of the manager of the concern
that his employees were going to stubborn
ly resist the cut. he consented to con-
ference. which resulted in a complete re-
versal of the wage reduction plan and
the wages of the employees were restored.
Another similar instance occurred in
the General Electric company 1t seems
that this company also inaugurated a
wage cut affecting nearly 500 girls. Sew
eral of the employees appealed to the Cen
trail Labor union for assistance, and that
body took the matter up, had literature
printed and circulated among the en-
ployes with view to promoting an or
ganization- The management of the con-
Germ became alarmed and restored wages.
This. however, had the effect of produc-
ing sufficient sentiment to pacify the en-
ployes to the point that the central body
was unable to secure an organization
However. the-central body is well pleased
that it had sufficient influence to protect
the girl employees of this concern from a
wage reduction.

BOULEVARD
ON IVY, TRACKS
.ONP|EDMONT
Council Committee and Arkwright
Tentatively Agree to Scheme
to Ease Congestion.

Ivy Street for boulevard and Pied
mont Avenue for double track car
service was the plan tentatively ia
vored by the street railway commit
tee Of the General Council and Pres
ident P. S. Arkwright, Of the Geor-
gia Railway and Power Company,
Thursday afternoon.
Pending grading and repaving, Ivy
Street has been stripped of car tracks,
1t is the desire of the street railway
committee to keep the tracks off, max
ing the street an unobstructed bouIe-
ward, and to compensate the stree.
railway company for loss of is Ivy
Street franchise by permitting the
laying of double tracks on Piedmont
Avenue
President Arkwright agreed this
scheme would be advantageous to the
street railway company as well as to
the city.
The double track service on Pied
mont would extend from East Pine
Street to Decatur. 1t would take care
of traffic from all of North and
Northeast Atlanta, affording relief
from congestion to Pine Street.
The Ivy Street boulevard PROPOSE
ton came up when President Ark
wright asked the Street Railway
Committee for two franchises, one on
Piedmont Avenue from Decatur to
Gilmer, and one on Ivy Street from
Edgewood to Auburn. These fran
chises are for short rights ofway,
designed to facilitate ingress and
egress to and from the car barns.
1t was when this request was made
that George II. Boynton, chairman Of
the Street Car Committee, made
known the desire of the committee
men to convert Ivy Street into a
boulevard and divert street car traf-
fic to Piedmont.
This plan would include the short
franchise sought by the street car
company on Piedmont from Decatur
to EdgewoOd. President Arkwright
signified that the plan would be ac-
Ceptable to his company, but he
wanted further time before agreeing.
Owners OF property on Piedmont
Avenue from Decatur to Gilmer
Streets object to the new plan, but
the Street Car Committee thinks they
must yield for the benefit of the
whole city.
