Beatrice Fairfax Writes on
~ The BashfuI Bow
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

ct AN a young man who has not
had much dealing with women
and never cared for the COM
pany Of a girl until recently, when I
met a young woman for whom I have
q great liking. I meet her when I am
in the company OF another yoeng man.
No sooner do we meet than I seem
10 lose all power Of speech. I cannot
say what want TO convey. She seems
TO understand me and acts pleasant
and encouraging I have never asked
her to accompany me to any places OF
amusement for fear that I might not
treat her properly. Furthermore, I
would not know where to take her, as
I've never gone out with girls" writes
I suppose It would do no good to
tell you. Henri, that in these days of
bold young men who think they honor
a girl by speaking to her, your mod
esty and shyness have real charm Of
their own.
Needs Some Advice.
what you want TO know is how to
campaign for the affections Of the girl
you admire. You don't want to be
tongue tied in her presence lest she
think you bore You are unwilling
TO risk having her girlish sympathy
come out TO your shyness for fear she
VIII pity and despise you. when all
your masculine instinct is for con-
QuerIng and winning admiration
suppose you ask her to go with you
TO a ballgame. Most men understand
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1914-08-08

baseball, and not very many women
do. In explaining the points Of the
game yOu can act as her instructor
and guide and thereby you viii gain
confidence in yourself
The bashful young man who IS quite
at a loss when he is paying a formal
call in a girls home will find himself
perfectly at ease when busy at some
thing more than the conscious game Of
society.
Occupy yourself at some familiar or
congenial pursuit, and ask the girl
gou like TO share il with YOU.
Stop Thinking Of self.
Don't struggle to make conversation
do something, If 1t is only taking a
walk or going to the corner for a soda
or taking street car ride. Discuss
what you see going on around YOU as
you would with a favOrite bow com
panion or a dear relative StoD think
ing Of yourself and devote yourself to
giving pleasure to the friend You are
trying to win.
Friendship consists Of almost equal
parts Of liking the same thing and
liking each other. Find A congenial
pastime that pleases you both and out
OF your common interest a real friend
ship will flower.
All men who are shy have a certain
nodesty that the brazen ladv-killer
lacks And so, don't grieve over your
ine1perlence- Just be your natural
boyish self and rest assured that If
the girl YOU like Is fine and whole
some your unselfish devotion will win
her.

sixth sense which his remote and saw

Of Objectionable faculty which enables
animals to find their way-and is be-

three little passages filled with fluid
called "endOlymph." They have moth

Thanks to this organ, animals are
able TO retrace, with an accuracy that
seems marvellous routes over which
they have once passed. The lost dog

american Artists Lack

London, Eng, Aug. S.-American
painters lack nationalism; they are
content TO initiate the French; their
one ideal is prettiness and often pref
tiness without meaning, according to
some Of the criticism passed by British
experts on a large and representative
collection Of American art, which has
been on view in a gallery here. The
one thing they find to praise is what
one critic terms the high level Of tech

Eliminating a half dozen paintings
Of cowboy scenes. prairies and sky

IF yeu have been reading about
the different awards that have been
made by the State Liability Board
you will notice that very few of
them have been union men. The
most awards have been made for
injuries to men employed in the
Champion Coated Paper Company.
All of these men are absolutely
anti union and have done nothing
towards making the Workman S
Compensation law. They receive
the benefits alright but the union
men ia the State of Ohio made it
possible, aud not these non un-

wake up to unionism and assist in

would they receive if this law was
not in effect.

Unions Win Out.

| Miners fight in coal fields re-
suits in union men being elected to
Office. The Denver Labor Bulletin
reports that the workers united in
several Colorado towns at the re-
cent election and elected union men
to the different offices. The fol
lowing comment from Editor Clint
Houston is of especial interest:
Union labor men were victors
in several municipal elections held
in Colorado mining districts Tues
day. Up in Lafayette straight
union miners ticket, headed by T.
II. Fault for mayor, defeated S.,
S. Wood, Socialist, who had the
support of the unionists and
those operators whe refused to or
ganize the miners union. A year
ago Wood defeated Fault, but this
time the tables were turned and
the entire miners union ticket won
by a majority of Il votes.
AT Superior, George Kauffner,
a union miner, was chosen mayor,
and throughout Boulder county
tickets supported by the unionists
were victorious.
"The entire union labor ticket
was elected at Augilar, in Las
Ammas county, one of the war
centers' of the coal strike. This is
the first time union man was ever
even suggested for office in that
town. An attempt was made by
the socalled Citizens party leaders
to deprive residents of the strikers
tent colony of the privileges of vot-
ing. BY order of Gen. Ammons
the military patrolled the town
election day, but there was no dis
order.
"The union labor ticket at Wal
senburg was defeated by 135 votes,
through the bringing to the polls
of strike-breakers, many of them
not citizens of Colorado, from the
Walsen mine. A contest of the
courts will probably be made Of
this election.
In La Veta, another storm cen
ter, the union miners whipped their
opponents, Probst, the labor can
ditates for mayor, receiving 1914
votes to 156 cast for Kincaid. the
coal operators candidate. Three
union men, Schmitt, Eggleston,
and Pickens, were chosen city
trustees.

others and even more shan some

to the trade unions cause will soon
become "nil' and we will become
like some women clubs, mere social
"fads.
We believe that this matter
ought to be settled by the A. F. of
L. once for all and the President of
the great body should inquire more
into the merits of the case, also it
would not be bad thing if this
high official would consider the
consequences and the effect these
snap shot decisions have on the
cause of labor, if the A. F. of L..
officials ar. really sincere in their
wish to extend the power and IN
fuence of the union Label, The
Only Real Potent Weapon The
Workers Have for the advance

remove this impediment to label
progress. 1t will also halt block
heads and "spies" from hampering
the good work of labor leagues as
was done in Logansport by man
who works more in the interests of
employers than he does for union
principles. If this man who holds
.(God save the mark commits
sion as organizer of the A. F. of
L. had been paid by the M. M. to
disrupt our local movement he
could not have done more to injure
the trade union cause than he has
since his accursed advent into the
local work.
We think that as Mr.. Gompers
has recently been the victim of one
man decision and has suffered keen-
ly as a .sult of what he no doubt
considers an injustice he cannot
fail to render justice to us when he
learns the truth about the Logans-
port matter. We invite lnvestiga-
ton, in fact we ought to demand 1t.
If President Gompers will send ar
A. F. of L. organizer who will give
hearing to all parties concerned
here in Logansport he will learn
something to his advantage and oi
benefit to the union cause in this
part of the United States. Asking
