was only the curtain.
In the mountains, devoting herself
to attending, first to her fathers needs,
and then to the simple peasantry, she
strove to forget the man. But hourly
his image seemed to arise before her
eyes. She knew it was illusion, but IT
was as real as life. She saw him in
her walks, when she sat beside Doctor
Dale in the observatory, trying to con.
centrate her mind upon the work that
she was doing for him. She saw him
in the huts of the villagers, standing
beside her, smiling, his arms out.

Resting beside mountain stream
the girl gazed on the letter. All her
love for Dyer seemed to have become
the property of another Aida. 1t was
an Aida who still loved him as de-
votedly as before, but it was not she.
She felt as If she had double per-
sonality. One part loved Dyer and
loathed Beldon. The other apathet-
ically awaited Beldon's wooing.
Suddenly sound beside her caused
her to look up with alarm. She saw a
huge dog drinking at the stream. She
called to the creature, which bound
ed toward her; then, apparently half
wild, and fearing her. bounded away.
Often Aida would see the creature
in the distance as she walked over the
mountain paths. and gradually over
coming its shyness, it would approach
nearer to her. Finally 1t began to
follow her. 1t followed to the door
of the house and stood near her,

Suddenly Aida started back with a
cry. The face of the dog had become
the face Of Doctor Beldon.
Doctor Dale, running out, alarmed

the cause of her distress, he read it..

members of Miami lodge No. 20 at
2:3o.
w. J. Griffiths, of the Middle
town lodge, stated today that a
vote on the reduction in the wage
scale would be taken next Saturday
He added that the reason this vote
was not taken last Saturday is due
to the fact that the time was too
short to notify all the lodges after
the conference adjourned in Pitts
burg last Friday and that it is a
ruling of the association that all
lodges vote at the same time.
The proposed reduction averages
11.2 in the tonnage pay roll. The
sliding scale suggested makes the
reduction range from IL per cent
on some jobs down to 6 per cent
on others.

Discusses Atlanta Strike

Washington, March, Il Last
week Representative Greene dis
cussed the strike of Atlanta textile
workers in the House and urged
consideration Of his resolution
which provides for an investig alton
of the mills in that city. During
his speech he read the contract
forced on employees of the Fulton
Bag and Cotton Mills. This con-
tract is one of the main causes of
the strike. 1t permits the company
to withhold one weeks wages if a
worker fails to give one weeks no
tice before he quits his employ
ment. The company, on the other
hand, can discharge at any time,
with or without reason.

Cincinnati Painters
May Strike
Monday.
More Than 1000 Men Will
Be Affected.

a strike OF the union painter,
now looks like a settled thing for
next Monday, all efforts having
failed In bringing about an agree
ment between the unions leaders
and the members of the Master
Painters Association. 1t is claimed
beth sides are firm in their stand
and If so, it will mean a strike of
more than 200 workers.
Attempts at negotiation were
made yesterday, but they were
without result. The employers
again rejected the demands being
made for the GLACIERS, declaring it
was out of reason.
Leaders of the painters last night
seemed not without some hope
that an agreement might be ar
ranged before Monday.
Among the employers it was
taken for granted that the strike is
to come and they declare they
mean to fight it out. One of the
things counted on to prevent any
weakening of the ranks of the era
ployers is that their members are
under bond to stand united.
1t was said last night that mer
of certain of the unions yesterday
received instructions to take home

Union Mans Duty
Toward Labor Press.

One of his best tests of the legal
ity of union man to the cause of
union man TO the cause of the
workers, is his attitude toward the
labor press.
When you hear a union member
knocking the labor paper, just
keep your eye open and you are
apt to find that he is not doing it
for the good of organized labor.
The labor paper is just as vital
part of the labor movement as a
labor council or labor temple.
1t may make mistakes and it may
not suit every member of the or
ganization it represents. But what
institution of labor is without mis-
takes and just what every member
of labor would have it be.
Here's the estimate of Samuel
Gompers, the Grand Old Man of
Labor" put en- the labor press:
Publicity is mighty force in
propagating any cause No matter
how worthy or how noble the pur-
pose of the movement, if they can
not be correctly interested and
brought to the attention of the peo.
pie the movement loses in effective
ness and force.
Labor papers have done much
to clarity public thought and to
impart correct impressions of the
workers.
The men giving their time tc
these labor papers are performing
work very necessary to the sue.
cess of the organized labor meve
ment.
Regular and burdensome is the
duty whose greatest reward is the
satisfaction of promoting the we'll
being of the workers. Many are
the temptations to turn aside fol
the handful of silver, the Office, OF
the honor offered. But, true ts
their conscience and humanity !:
best interests, this group of labor
editors stay faithfully by their
chosen work and help mold pub
lie opinion and conscience tha
shall be aware of tendencies anc
their meaning.
All the workingmen owe these
labor editors both moral and fnan
cial support, and honor and graft
tude for the services rendered day
after day.
They are doing a work of for
native power that will have a tel
ling effect upon history, but thei
services should be recognized b.
the men of today as we'll as ia thu
