In order that he may go to Europe
and lend his services to the work of
the American relief committee. Rev.
DR.. John Van Schaick. jr, last night
rendered his resignation from the pas
| torate of the Church of Our Father,
Universalist, 18th and L streets north
| west. to the board of trustees of that
church. The minister's invitation to
participate in this work reached him
on the fifteenth anniversary of his pas
| torate.
The board of trustees, however, re-
| fused unanimously to accept the resig-
nation, and recommended that the
parish give DR.. Van Schaick an indef1-
mite leave of absence for what they
| termed his commendable purpose.
| DR.. Van Schaicks statement to the
board is as follows:
DIR. Van Schaick's Statement.
early Sunday morning, the day OF
my fifteenth anniversary as your pas
| tor, I received a cablegram from En-
nest P. Bicknell, director of the Ameri-
can Red Cross, and now loaned by them
| to the American relief committee
| abroad, asking me to come to Europe
at once to help in the work and to re
port to the office of the Belgian relle1
at Rotterdam, Holland.
IAN immediate decision was neces-
sary, but we took twenty-four hours
to consider our duty. 1 believe it to be
! the right thing for me to help In TINS
work, no matter what the duties are
that 1 have here at home.
Mrs. Van Schaick and l are to sail
a week from Saturday, January 10,
from New York, on the New Amster-
dam of the Holland-American line.
II herewith present my resignation
as your minister. 1t is not proper to
leave parish without head for an
indefinite period of time. l cannot tell
how soon l can return. 1t may be IN
the spring or it may be in the fall or it
may be longer There is no reason for
this resignation except the one l have
stated. l love Washington above all
other cities, and the ties which bind
me to this parish are, close and
precious 1t Is. however, the things
which l stand for in this parish which
compel me to go and try to do this
work.

MOULDERS UNION AND LABEL LEAGUE
HOLD SOCIAL SESSION AND DANCE

Union labor in Everett made a gala
night of last Monday evening. The
Molders' Union and the Women's
Union Label League, after some weeks
of planning, were hosts at one of the
most enjoyable social gatherings held
by organized labor in this vicinity
in many months.
Promptly at s p. m. the larger hall
of the Labor Temple was filled to
overflowing with union men and their
families and a short program of ad-
dresses was given by President Rob
ert Bepler, of the Molders' Union of
Everett; President Ernest P. Marsh
and Secretary Charles Perry Taylor,
of the Washington State Federation
of Labor.
President Bepler said the good peo-
pie of Everett had been invited to be
present in order that the Molders'
Union and the Women's Union Label
League might bring to the attention of
home folks the fact that Everett had
in the Washington Stove Works a
union establishment using the union
label on it's product and therefore de-
serving of the patronage of union peo-
pie. The speaker announced a cam
paign of advertising in behalf of the
union label stoves of Everett to be
conducted by the union of which he
was president, aided by the Label
League and the State Federation of
Labor

ried on with spirit that will surprise
the rest of the state We ought all to
encourage this work, for never before
was it so evident that in union there
Is strength, and that we must be
alive to our own welfare if we would
succeed in our chosen work"
BY the time the short addresses of
Presidents BepIer and Marsh had
been concluded the Labor Temple
hall was too crowded for comfortable
dancing, which had been planned as
the evenings entertainment. Secre-
tary Charles Perry Taylor, of the
Washington State Federation of La
Dor, was introduced, but said he simp-
ly wanted to assure the young ladies
present that if a union label steve
was used to keep comfortable their
young men callers during the cool
evenings of next winter, the young
ladies might rest assured the ardent
Wooers would never have cold feet,
but would speedily pop the fateful
question. This announcement was
greeted with a buzz of feminine ex-
citement and an urgent request for
definite information where to buy
stoves bearing the union label of the

extended to visit the Marysville Tim
Der Workers Union meeting Friday
evening, and three automobiles will
leave the Everett Labor Temple Fri
day evening at o'clock to take a
number of Everett unionists to this
meeting. President Marsh, Secretary
Taylor, Secretary Robert Mills, Presi-
dent Brown and Organizer Clarence
Folsom, of the International Timber

ANOTHER ROCKEFELLER
STRIKE

BAYONNE, n. J.-Several thousand
Polish and Italian laborers employed
by the Standard Oil company are on
strike for wage increase. The work
ers are unorganized and the Rockefel-

methods they employed in Colorado
and elsewhere to break the strike.
Conditions under which these men
are employed is terrific Tank steam
ers are loaded with oil for the foreign
trade at this place.

said President Bepler land we also
believe in boosting the union label.
Every trade union and every label
league in Washington will be inter
ested in this campaign of advertising
of Eyerett's union label stoves, and
we hope that by next winter the
union folks of our state at least may
keep themselves warm by the aid of
these union made products of our city
and that no union mans home will
contain a heater made in non-union
Eastern stove works"
President E. P Marsh, of Everett,
who returned home for the evenings
gathering, prior to several weeks So
journ in Eastern Washington cities
in behalf of the Washington State Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, was the next speak
er and addressed the audience in
few well chosen words encouraging
the efforts of the Molders' Union and

union label products of Everett fac
tories. ''I like to see these gatherings
held" said President Marsh. They

City Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, DEC. 3, 1915.


 Judging from present indications the Chamber of Commerce, reorgdnlzed and reluyenated, is about to step into tne lime fight as positive factor In the affairs Of the community and will make an effort 10 bring about sundry anu divers changes in the existing order of things in this section of Al aska.
 Among other contemplations, the chamber will attempt to effect the much desired improvement in the mail ser zee and will also endeavor to secure an increased allowance from Washing ton for the extension of road construc- tion to the interior. The program also includes the furthering of the Snake river harbor project and such other public Improvements as will result in a general betterment of the commer- cial and industrial conditions of the town and district.
 This is assuredly very ambitious program and one that is calculated to tax the energies of the members in no small degree as it Is most undeniably true that none of the desired effects are to be lightly won If the contem- plated program is faithfully ad- nered to much time, thought and labor will be required before results of a aennite character can be achieved
 To secure results in the case of any one of the principal features of this program is a great big contract and the chamber will have its hands full in every sense of the term. To many of our narrow minded and pessimistically inclined citizens it will probably ap- pear that the chamber is really set ting out to strive for the unattainable ito shoot at the moon, so to say, in the hope that something will happen and they will probably be ready as usual with the derisive sheer or the gentle knock, characteristic of their kind. However, this should not be discour- aging to any with a clear sense of dis cernment as the motive in such cases is easily recognizable. It is to be ex- pected that there will be plenty to throw cold water on what is being at tempted for the reason that nearly all who are not ambitious enough to do anything themselves consider it their especial province to tear down what l ever others strive to build up. All this | counts for little with those who are | determined on their course and will | therefore have little effect on the con- I temptations of the chamber of com 1 merce or its individual members. It is | to be regretted, however, that tel.den- cies of this character are bound to 1 manifest themselves at a time when the men who are trying to accomplish l something for the relief and better ment of the district need the full sup port and encouragement of every citi- zen of the district The chamber is preparing to undertake a great big contract and one that will require a lot of hard and thankless labor even in the event that they are not success ful. Further 1t is being done in the interest of the whole community and for the benefit of every citizen and is therefore worthy of the fullest com mendation.
 That the chamber is striving after big things-things that are hard to accomplish-is all the more to it's credit and the greater will be the sense f achievement-of work well done
