Tt is the purpose of the commission" MT Walsh said, Ito bring before it men and women whose names are most closely connected with our great basic indus tries and through this means to obtain full, frank discussion of the relation that exists between the standardization of wealth and power in their hands and a feeling of unrest among wage earners.
 Large employers and stockholders in industrial corporations are more and more turning their attention to organized eff forts toward social betterment. The com mission will seek to find out whether or not these efforts are undertaken because or feeling of responsibility for the con- ultiohs which create the need of such effort, and if so whether or not the vari- ous schemes of welfare work and pbiIon- thropy can be considered adeouate to meet the needs.

Somebody made the mistake of lock-

the oversight. Had there been an alarm
of fire or in divers other emergencies,
the locking of the doors might have been
followed by serious consequences. There
is authority for the assertion that the
city ordinances provide for the doors re-
manning open on occasions when the
opera house is being used, and GER

The big Indian production of LonGfel-
lows "Hiawatha," for the benefit OF the
Barre Woman's club, which will be pre-
scented Oct. /, has started with enthu-
siasm and vigor. Daily rehearsals are

In the second act is Hiawatha's woo-
ing of the lovely Minnehaha in the land
of the Decotahs and their departure,
leaving the arrow maker lonely in his
wigwam.
Thus it is our daughters leave us,
Those we love and those who love us,
Just when they have learned TO help us"
The third act is full OF life and jolliti-
the wedding feast OF Hiawatha
and Mnnehaha, given by old Nokomls.
Here the handsome Pan Perk Kervis
dances his Indian dance and IA small
boys do a tomahawk drill. 0lisbiator
sings his Indian love song and many
other catchy and artistic musical num-
bers.

There, Matthew Standish. freed by a
miracle from the tolls that craftier
men had woven about him, was win

for him the pathway to the very sum-

But he found his subconscious self
straying from the picture he was SO
ruthlessly drawing. His mind would
not fix itself on the lighted capitol and
the wreck of his life-work; but crept
over back into the dim room behind
him. Even his tongue tricked him.
