 Then they got out their play carts and with rakes and shovels started to clean up the whole street in the block where they lived. They raked up all the old wood and leaves in the gut ters and piled them high up in a va cant field and when night came their mothers let them have fine bonfire which all the children in the neigh borhood came to watch
 Of course George and Chester were Tn charge and they did not let the other children come too near.
 After it was burned out the children all went home but after that for the rest of the week, there were lbonfires every night and that neighborhood was the cIeanest of any in the town Just because Chester and George had discovered way to make even such dirty work, really play.

Once upon a time every village, town and city had what they named and name now, ssCIean up week. Dur ing that week, usually in the Spring and Fall. all the mean and women and even the children were asked and expected to help in cleaning out the cellars and alleyways and tidying up the yards and stables
 At the time am telling you about the schools closed. for the whole of Clean -ups' week and Chester and George, two ten year old boys. made up their minds they would do all they could to help in the work.
 So on the first day they went into and polished everything spick and span. Then they went to Georges

breathing is of little value. Unfor- tunaxely few persons have the strength and endurance to exercise violently enough to stir the lungs to rapid action. This is especially true of women and also of men who have permitted their muscles to become
 weak Common sense, therefore, dic- Itates that the lungs should be exer- cised independently through deep breathing gYIunastics. ....

MAN ItsD!-A HEAD
 FOR THE FAMILY

FOR THE FAMILY Like love and friendship. these a comedy pair,
 What's done by one the other has a share;
 Just like co-partners in joint stock of What one contracts is by the other paid
 l It is a sly, standing joke that most widows are not averse to slipping into the. matrimonial harness a sec- ond time. It puzzles young girls to see their widowed aunts. fat. fair and forty. with grown up children, look ing. around again. Middle-aged spin sters can't understand it. 7 The woman who has once been a happy wife always feels the need of a strong shoulder to lean upon to the end of life's journey. She has been used to wise counsel. to looking up to one more experienced than herself. If she is the mother of a large family. she feels more than ever the need of "a, head to the household. It is a very exceptional family wI1er the members ldo not clash now and then. The young fellows josh their sisters about slit alxirts, their corsetless fg- { lres, peek-a-hcos waists and pork-pie
 
 with whispered taunts about seeing them trying to mount the main stair way when they came in at two a. m. or hearing that they had been flirting with girls that they wouldn't think of introducing to them. The moth CT is almost powerless to quel the arr gunent that ensues
 f Why wouldn't she wish from the depth of her troubled heart that she l had a husband to keep the young folks within bounds? That's not the least of her worries It's no easy matter to provide not only fashion I able attire, but the necessities of life, l for would-be social climbers. She knows by experience where there's a 1 man at the head of a family he can not shirk paying the bills if he would hold his head up in the community. If he marries a widow with six chill dten, he knows there's eight to pro- vide for instead of two had he taken as aingIe young woman.
 I eIt is safe to believe that the man l who assumes the position of being at l the head Of the house, when he mar ries widow with six children. has l every reason to hope for seven times l as much love in that home as if they We're but husband and wife dwelling I therein. E = F \ 4 widow knows how to appreciate T a man The loneliness she is forced to endure makes her Sympathetic and I eliminates the harshness, if any, which might have been in her disposi- 1 ton. s Having a large family on her hands I causes her to think twice ere being I too independent with her second hus- band. Experience teaches her that sl she must be help or a hindrance to I him. As a. bachelor, 1t was the bane I Of his life not to be able to shooa aoff 1 friends whom he did not want. who invariably dropped in of an evening. Her past acquaihtance gave her the I knowledge of just who would be the right kind Of friends for him to en- l certain and those who were not Chil- dren won't always remain In the home nest. His true reward comes whom there are just two left in the house the head Of the family and his help meet.

TRANSPORTATION TO RAY
MOND CONVENTION.

Everett delegates to the RAYMOND
convention of the State Federation of
Labor will do well to cut this out and
keep it to refer to. 1t will be a ma
terial help in arranging their transpor-
tation to and from the convention city
Two trains a day leave Seattle for
Raymond, the first at eight o'clock in
the morning, arriving in Raymond at
2:40 in the afternoon. The other train
leaves Seattle at Ais in the afternoon
and arrives in Raymond 10:40 that
night. Take the N. P. train from the
King street station. You can purchase
tickets at the Everett city ticket Of
flee at 1926 Colby. Purchase your
ticket through from Everett to Ray
mond, one way taking from the local
ticket agent receipt. Presentation

utes or better in Seattle to make con-
nections. If you wish to leave Seattle

gins Monday morning, January 10, sol

TOPS RECORD

Philadelphia, Jan. 1.-THE year
1913 broke all records for immigration
at this port, with a total of 10000
against 61,163 for the year 1912, which
was a record up to that time. Most
of the immigrants arriving here came
from Russia and the southern coun.
tries of Europe. The impending
steamship war indicates that the mum.
Der of arrivals for the present year
will be far in excess of anything here
tofore known.

THIRTY NINE JOIN THE
NEW UNION.

At a well attended meeting in the
Labor Temple Wednesday night a
local union of the International Tin
Grant Workers was formed. The local
will be known as Everett Local No
"a, and was instituted by Organizers
Whitehouse and J. Dean, who were
aided by Harry Sigman of Seattle.
Attorney Sigman addressed the
meeting and told the audience the OBJ
jects and aims of the organization.
Many people have the idea because
they are called hoboes that this or
ganization is a joke, but after once
learning of the objects and oath of
membership they would have an en-
tirely different conception of the ''Ho-
boes' Union"
Each member takes an oath to never
act as a scab or strikebreaker against
any labor union, and to induce run
away boys to return to their homes.
Officers protein were elected to
hold until next Wednesday night when
permanent officers will be elected.
Those chosen last night were: Gust
10th, president; J. S. Barber, secre-
tary; Roy Boyle, treasurer; John John
son and M. Head, organizers.
There will be a meeting next We'd
nesday night in the Labor Temple and
Jeff Davis, international president, will
be present and give the new local a
talk of the aims and objects of the
organization.
