cause of Labor. Men and women
marching shoulder to shoulder
typify impressively the purpose
fulness and the unity of the labor
movement They are a physical
demonstration of devotion to prin-
ciples, proof that none can fail
to understand. Obrervance of the
day is means of educating public
thought and the agents for mold
ing public opinion in regard to the
principles and purposes of the labor
movement. When our movement
is understood, il will be recognized
and established as potent agency
for justice and humanity. The OBJ
jections and opposition now inter
posed by employers will no longer
be tolerated.
No human movement remains
at one level, it must increase or it
must decrease. AS new members
come into unions they must learn
the traditions and ideals of the
cause of Labor. The spirit of fell
lowship and brotherhood of man
are the life of the labor movement.
If this life be not nourished, the
whole will become as a dead thing.
"The Executive Council of the
American Federation of Labor
urges that every central body plan
to make obrervance of the coming
Labor Day, demonstrate to the
whole nation the dignity, strength
and Importance of the labor move
ment and to make the spirit of the
day of such a nature that every
worker shall appreciate more keen
ly the value of his union and shall
be ready to perform his duties with
greater enthusiasm and more per-
feet understanding. Labor Day
typifes a movement for life and
humanity. Do not pervert it..

last week of the tendency in some
quarters to overlook the advantages

Labor Dav belongs to the work
ing people of America. 1t is for
them TO determine its value and
significance. Those outside the la
Dor movement test its strength and
lvirility by the way in which Labor
Day is observed. Their test is jus
tilted by the fact that the power of
the labor movsment consists in its
appeal to the hearts, minds, and
wills of the workers. Arouse the
working people to sense of their
rights and interests and the labor
movement becomes an irresistible
power for their realization.

every human endeavor, we become
familiar with the heart forces and
the ideals that brought the move.

Sec'y of Convention--lnter-
esting Report of Sec'y

Matters chiefly routine constituted

which consists OF leading clergymen
from different parts of the State had

B. Mower of Waterville, secretary of
the convention, read his regular quar-
terly report, the chief features Of
which were the accounts of the two
dedication services of the summer, one
at Wells Junction in June, and the
other at fremont, Mount Desert. in
July; and of three ordination services,
one at Alfred, one at South Penobseot
and the other at North Haven Tween
ty-three special workers, composed
chiefly of Colby and Newton students,
have been busy during the summer
months doing the work of the associa-
ton. Attention was given to the big
annual Baptist convention, which is
to be held in Auburn, scot. to s. The
Free Baptist convention will be in
session at Lewiston at the same time,

ing in church at Hudson. Miss Flea

also been conducting meetings at 10

That noted span over the Thames.
known as the London bridge, was until
1863 the only one. The Romans and the
Saxons built various wooden bridges
near the site OF the present London
bridge, but these were destroyed by fire
or flood. In 1176 Henry II started the
construction of stone bridge at this
point, but the work was not completed
until 1909. A row of houses was built on
either side, so that it resembled a street
with fortified gates at each end, on
which the heads of traitors were dis
played

LOCAL PASTOR MAY
JOIN FRENCH ARMY

Rev. j. l.. Chatagnon, assistant rec
tor Of the Sacred Heart parish, may
be one of those who will be called in
to active service in the French army
as the result of the recent outbreak.
Father Chatagnon will leave for Port
land Tuesday to consult the French
consul there in reference to returning
TO France and taking up arms. Eight
Catholic priests in the diocese are
subject to recall and three from Lew
iston have already responded. and are
on their way to France at the present
time. Father Chatagnon served in the
army for one year during his youth
and when he was discharged he came
to Baltimore and took up his studies
for the priesthood. While he was here
the law was changed in France re-
curing that every citizen serve three
years instead of one. He received a
notice to return and serve out his re-
naming two years, but his studies
would not permit at that time. That
almost Classics Father Chatagnon as
an offender against the military laws
of his country, and if he does return
without an amnesty he is exposing
himself to arrest and perhaps impris-
onment. There Is no difference shown
the priests who are obliged to serve
in the ranks on the same basis with
ordinary laymen. u an amnesty is
granted and in all probability it will,
Father Chatagnon will return as soon
as possible. The military laws of
France require that all inactive Re-
servists must report as soon as mobil-
izatipn has been ordered without indi-
viduai notification. Although his time
as an inactive Reservist does not ex-
pire until 1880, he could not return to
France unless he went at the present
time.
