A Chance for the Churches
Grandma had a garden, a chick

a smoke house and a big, roomy
attic.
In the garden she grew enough
sweet corn, not only for summer
use, but also to dry for the win
ter, in the attic,
Small fruits she canned or
made into jellies or jams. She
also canned tomatoes and peas
and string beans, besides drying
lima and pea beans and storing
them. The cellar held a fine
stock of potatoes and beets and
cabbage and turnips and carrots
and parsnips. to say nothing of
cider and apples, Squashes and
pumpkins, too, kept a long time.
Remember how good they tasted
at Thanksgiving and Christmas?
The pigs ate the refuse and
the sour milk, and in the winter
they went into sausages or into
the smoke house.
In the back yard were barrels
of wood ashes, whence came the
I've with which grandma made
her own soap, both soft and hard,
and hulled and bleached the field
corn into hominy.
Fact is, about all grandma had
to buy was sugar and clothing
and maybe a few barrels of flour.
Even the fuel grandma chopped
in the woods in the winter ION
shares"
Living in a city fiat, you miss
all of that and you've no way of
telling how badly you've been
overcharged. Grandma could tell
because she did the producing
herself--if a dealer charged more
than she thought was fair, she
told him to 60 to and grew or
made it.
There's no way that we know
of to 60 back to grandma's time.
But her experience suggests a
thought.
In the country food is still
plentiful. apples rot on the
ground and if you could buy at
the country prices and charge on
only what it costs to move the
stuff and distribute it, there
wouldn't be so many palaces
owned by millionaire middlemen
and there would be a good deal
more comfort among the IS per
cent. i
A problem of the public welfare /,
isn't it; a kind of choice between
whether a few shall go on getting
richer way beyond any earthly
need or the many have enough
to eat? 10 aIl3t
| should call this a religious
problem. 7S
Jesus, you remember, often
fed the multitude; for He saw
He could not get far with His
counsels of perfection if the folks
He wanted to teach had to en-
dure the gripings of empty stom-
achs. 4,
| wonder if our churches
haven't been combining them
selves too closely to furnishing
food for the spirit only.
Perhaps if they took their many
earnest young folks who are
waiting for a chance to get into
the game of social service and
harnessed them for a campaign
of cooperative buying-not SIM
ply on a selfish basis, to keep
the high cost-wolf from their
own doors alone, but to help drive
1t away from the many doors to
which the churches usually bring
only charity or platitudes-i it
might prove the beginning of a
real levival Of church influence
and moral authority. -Vicksburg

TWO SINNERS

There was man, 1t was said onos

Who went astray in his youthful
prime;
Can the brain keep cool and the h. art
' keep quiet
When the blood is river that's -nn.,

And boys will be boys, the old fJ1,s
say.
And the man is the better who's had

And Christian people threy open tha

With a warmer welcome than ever

Wealth and honor were at his com.

And a spotless woman gave bin her
hand.
And the world strewed their pathway
with blossoms a-bloom,
Crying, God bless ladye, God bless

There was a maiden who went astray
In the golden dawn of her lfe's yonne
day;
She had omre passion and heart tb.o
head,
And followed blindly where fond lave
led;
And love unchecked is a dangerous
guide
To wander at will by fair girls
The woman repented and turned from
sin,
But no door opened to let her In
The preacher prayed that she might

But told to look for mercy-in heaven
For this is the law of the earth. we

That the woman is stoned. while the

( The coal operator like any other
ordinary theft emits sickening whine
when ever he has to give the miners
anything like square deal and the
present case is no exception.
BY what right: have the Ohio opera.
tors any claim on the miners which
compels them to let them have free
OF charge the small coal that they
produce anymore than any other. 1t
takes Just as much labor to handle
it and it usually brings as much on
the market as great many mana
featuring plants burn nothing else.
The only right they have to do is
that right exercised by the stronger
over the weaker. Simply because the
mine workers have never yet made a
firm demand for run of mine the opera
tor imagines that he is being impos-
ed upon. Today because of the coal
being screened before being weighed
the miners. have to contend with inn
proper dumping apparatus larger
screen bars than is allowed by law,
and crOokedness ON the scales and, be-
l1eVe me the operators are wise to
all this crooked work as it gives a
decided increase to their dividends.
To them the coal miner is nothing
more than a cog in their money pro-
ducing machines and If one is killed
or manned for life they never give
them thought except for the incon-
venience 1t causes them to get them
out of the mine. At one of the mines
without leaving the Subject) cou-
pie of months ago an injured man who
recently died was brought out between
the motor and loaded trip of almost
40 cars. Imagine the agony that man
suffered by being bumped by the loads
behind which are always swaying
from side to side and the jerking OF
the motor in front. The mine bosses
explanation was that he did not want
to lose on the output. h.
That will give you an idea as to the
way the men are treated in some of the
mines of the country Some of them
which are still superintended by Am
orleans treat the miners white but
they are fast giving way to others.
But taking, the matter in a nutshell
the operators can cajol, threaten. de
port, Influential miners and do every
other rotten thing which they nearly
all have down pat but if the Ohio Leg
islature does not pass run of mine
well it will be demanded and if it is
not forthcoming, "the miners will close
the mines down" for those that con-
troll them.

Prominent Miner Answers Last Roll


Prominent Miner Answers Last Roll
Call.
Friday of last week saw the pass
ing into the great beyond of Frank
Greenwood, ST., one of the best known
and popular coal miners of Belmont
county.
Mr.. Greenwood was one Of that now
rapidly disappearing band of miners
who starved, struggled and worked
: to make the United Mine Workers
the Great industrial organization that
it is today
He was member of the Knights
OF Labor the first labor organization
OF note that made its appearance in
the coal fields of the state of Ohio and
was among the first that answered to
the call of the United Mine Workers
which later on consolidated with the
K. of L.
. He was a member of the Musicians
Union in Bellaire and several different
Musical organizations offered their
services as musicians for the funeral
free of charge but as it was the wish
of the widow and children that no
) music be had at the funeral their Of
fers were gently refused.
The deceased was a life long resi-
dent of Bella1re and is survived by
two brothers both members of U. M.
W. of A., besides widow and four
children. He was stricken with .pneu-
monia the day before Xmas and as he
was not in the best of health had lit
tie vitality to fight the dread disease.
Owing to clause in the scale the
miners were refrained from turning
out but large number of them were
present at the funeral in order to pay
their last respect to their departed
brother. He was also a devout church
member being member of the st.
Johns Catholic church in Bellaire
from which his funeral took place.
He was inferred in the Catholic GENE
terry in. Bellaire. He lived a chris
tan life as far as his circumstances
permitted and died with the firm be-
lief that he would he one of those to
hear Welcome Thou Faithful Servant
Thy Work is Well Done
Will Close Their Mines
During the past few weeks the daily
papers have been holding out on their
front pages ARTICLES purporting to
come from the Ohio coal operators
quoting them. as saying that they will
close down their mines should run of
mine become law.

ing in Bellaire have been let and work
in constructing it will be started i'm
nediately. Pellaire has long been in
need of new home for it's postal
system as the present building is far
10 small to accommodate the rapidly
increasing business due TO the Install
alton of parcels post.
Has the buying of new fire truck
been forgotten by the Getty Fathers"
of IBellaire or are they having a secret
confab over the matter. When it
comes to doing or getting anything
on time the gentlemen who wear the
varnish off the seats of Bellaires coun-
Gil chamber and other public Offices
telling what they would do if it was
MT for this and that are far behind
the times of the supposed town of
Bingville. One citizen of Bellaires
suburbs stated that one time the ser
wants of the city sent surveyors over
in his end of the town to lay off grad
ings and such preparatory to paving.
later on, in the misty past they came
back to pave but were compelled to
wait until the street could be cleared
of the trees that had grown up on
it while they were arranging the plans.
