c. F. [. LEADERS FAVOR STRIKE
-ScoRE THOMPSON
John Fitzpatrick and e. N. Mock
les, president and secretary of the
Chicago Federation OF Labor, jumped
into the garment strike with both
feet today, and in favor of the strik-
ing members of the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers, who are affiliated
with neither the C. F. of l. or the
A. F. of L.
They made their stand known in a,
scorching letter to Mayor Thompson,
in which they asked pertinent ques-
tons as to why the city administra-
ton was so partial to the employers
and so set against a living wage for
the strikers.
They emphasized the fact the
strikers not being affiliated with the
labor movement had nothing to do
with the police allowing sluggers to
operate, as they are doing now.
The letter closes with this:
"The clothing manufacturers have
refused to arbitrate. For this they
have been condemned by the press,
the pulpit and all right-think1ng men
and women. Such a stand is con-
trary to public policy. Why does the
city administration support them in
that stand? Why does it secure them
police protection at the expense of
law abiding citizens? The answer
rests with you. The labor move
ment of this city will hold you re-
sponsible for that answer"

HOGS ARE HUSKING CORN.
Calhoun County Crop Reduced One
Half and Porcines Are Put
Into Fields.

Rockwell City, Dec. 13.-Corn
husking is progressing rapidly and
many of the progressive farmers of
Calhoun county see the end not far
off. The corn is light, some of it
weighing out just one-half, and corn
huskers are hard to get, as it is hard
to make good wages with poor crop.
The one redeeming feature of the
whole situation is the splendid lot
of hogs in the county. This has
been great year for them and the
farmers are feeding them the soft
corn, and some of the farmers say
that they never saw hogs do half so
we'll. Some have fenced off large
tracts Of corn, and let the hogs in

SHOE STYLE AND SERVICE.
Styles i'm Women and Mems Shoes
Undergo Great Change.

The tendency Of women TO wea,
shoes with very high heels, tiltine
forward in disregard of health and
comfort, and with pointed toes, has
oeen marked for many years. The
many men who at various periods
have worn 'toothpick" shoes show
that the masculine element is moi
exempt from the delusion that foot
wear producing misshapen feet is
beautiful. OF late years among men
there is a greater tendency toward
wearing wide toed shoes that con-
form better to the foot and do not
cramp the toes.
A good many women feel the same
way. A teacher in a prominent
girls college recently remarked that
nearly all the girls in that institution
were wearing wide toed sensible
shoes this season.
But an article in newspaper
that has just come to hand from a
city having large shoe factories.
suggests that the health fad in wo-
mems footwear has not gone so far
as it might. The high brow college
girls may want shoes the shape of
their feet. But not the society buds.
The reporter who wrote the article
referred to, after making a round Of
the shoe factories, reached the COLI
clusion that the principal demand
among women was for a stylish shoe
regardless of either service or COM
fort.
1t is commonly remarked at sum-
mer resorts, that women will wear
for rough walks In the country shoes |
with high heels and pointed toes in
which their ankles frequently turn.
They pick their way in a tiresome and
laborious manner, but pride no doubt

THE FIRST MOVIES.

Who started the moving picture
show business, something that at
tracts the people all over the universe
every night? According to the Chi
cago Herald a man named Aaron
Jones is responsible although he was
not the inventor. In 1898 he was \
newsboy in Chicago with a large pat
ronage and making some money. At
this time another newsboy discover
ed something and took it to Jones
Jones at once became interes ed and
took up what was then called "a
contraption of the devil" or "a thing
a-ma-Jig." 1t was a machine that
showed pictures in motion. 1t was
crude affair but it was new and the
people became interested. Jones
Joined hands with this newsboy and
the first entertainment was given
in Waukegan in October, 1898. The
first picture show given in Chicago,
Illinois, was on the night of Decem-
Der 26, 1904, at the old number 191
State street. On January /, 1905,
there was only one motion picture
show in Chicago in a little dingy
room, no larger than the smallest in
the city. Now there are more than

to dollar. Jones and his newsboy

At Decoration Day service held at

raise the necessary funds to build
manument to the soldiers living and

is carried to completion at an early
date, and before all the survivors of
the war have passed away, it will
never be completed. A subscription
was taken up at Leeds Church, which
