BRICK UPON BRICK.


Get it out of head that the goal Of labor can
be reached by any great by the of any
one great piece of organizing machinery.
1t is case of gradual, ncessant effort. The To-
ledo Times uses this simple figure IF you have ever
watched the building of structure you have noticed
one simple principle running through entire job from
the first marking out of the piece of
material adde at the top. And it is this-that every
single stroke of work made the idea in view of
that which is to follow Remember that the total value
OF the finished job rests with each effort in
tion-at the time that it is put FORTH 1t is the prin-
cple OF brick brick Each brick merges into every
other brick that the completed does not
stand structure single bricksbut as bricks up-
bricks -
Keep ever in mind the purpose-the solidarity OF
1abor-and make each effort count effectively
Get in touch with the worker you. He is ma
terial for the construction the great scheme OF
solidarity.
AS long as there is worker unorganized the struc
ure must remain incomplete.

REEDY's MIRROR ON
BIG COPPER STRIKE

The wages Of Calumet miners have
not been raised, nor their hours short
ened in fifteen years, and the men
have now lost five months pay in this
strike. The company is one Of tho
greatest money-makers In the world.
It has coined millions in profits out OF
the workers., and now it will not arbl-
trate. r. ~. .e-ss.
Surely there should be some public
remedy for such a. state of affairs.
Surely there can be no just ground
for refusal to arbitrate such a case.
The workers cannot be wholly in the
wrong. Their pay can't have been
right If the company paid 121,00O,-
900 In profits in forty years besides
investing $4,000, 900 in equipment
and s25,0OO,Oo0 in the purchase Of
mines. There must be something to
arbitrate. Ill s~
II there's no other way to bring
about settlement why cannot the
state take the mines and operate them
pending q trial of the issue and then
enforce the trials finding.
To say that the state can do nothing
in such industrial and social crises is
to say a fool thing. ..... ...,
! The commonwealth cannot be at
the mercy of lawlessness. It can
shoot down strikers when they get
lawless. Can it do nothing to en-
ployers who will make no concessions
to the demands of $1,000 employees
who are willing to suffer the loss of
five months pay or more In order to
get better hours and wages and gem
eral working conditions? -.
There must be a way to settle such
issues other than by starvation and
slaughter. Arbitrate!-William M.

: EASY HALF-HOUR DISHES

For the busy woman who has much
to do, it is a wise plan to have a list
of recipes that: may be quickly pre-
pared on short notice.
Soups OF various kinds which come
in cans WILL, Of course, be quickly
served. But creamed scoops, of po-
tatoes, onions, carrots, asparagus and
in fact almost any vegetable. can be
prepared and served in half an hour
if the vegeta bic is finely cut before
cooking. ~ s.z
Many kinds OF fish, besides the
fried variety, are easily cooked in hall
an hour. ~
Escalloped dishes, from cold fish
or other foods, are ready to serve as
soon as they are thoroughly hot.
A glance at the list OF quick dishes
will tell YOU II. you have the matters
ais at hand, and the regret will be
saved that you might have had this
or that if " had only thought In
the hurry of quick meal getting
ones memory is often faulty and not
to be relied upon.
Tomato toast is a. delicious quick
lunch dish. Omelets of various ana
sundry kinds are always popular, and
if you have little cold meat which,
with hot sauce like the Mexican or
Spanish, will serve as good main
dish.
Oyster stew is a simple dish and
quickly made, quite filling, and al
most always popular. .|
Cream toast is one OF the staple
good old-fashioned dishes. With the
addition OF cheese 1t raises It's foot
value. L.. 81 s.s vs.
"A DESERT in a hurry, Of preserved
or canned peaches with whipped
cream, or none at all, with a piece OF
cake or a cooky. is good finish to a
meal. s..
