Sabron glanced over to the mat
where Pitchoune, stretched on his
side, his forepaws wide, was breathing
TRANQUILITY in the heat.
We have heard rumors of little dog
who was seen running along the highway,
miles from Tarascon, but OF course thaI

Sabron nodded 1T was, however,

Not but what I think his little heart
was brave enough and valiant enough to
have followed you, but no dog could go
so far without a better scent.
Sabron said: at is one of the re-
grets of my life that you cannot tell
us about it. How did you get the
scent? How did you follow me|
Pitchoune did not stir, and Sabron's
eyes returned to the page.

our school board was shown up by
Alderman John Kennedy in a debate
with Former Trustee William Roth
mann of the school board at Wicker
Park hall last night. Rothmann was
called ''mouthpiece of big business"
during the discussion.
Kennedy drew examples one after
another to prove that the fight on
the Chicago Teachers Federation
was a scrap which would hurt the
people.
1.-The public schools of our country
were founded through the efforts of
the labor unions" the alderman de-
clared. ''The union men had to fight
rich taxdodgers who didn't want to
pay for the schools and big business
Directing to education which might
spoil good factory hands.
"The same forces are trying to
get the school system of today and
for the same reasons. If we allow
the school board to GUST the teachers
union we are giving that body an au-
tocratic power.
"The Loeb rule, whether it was de-
signed to put Margaret Haley out of
business or to put the Teachers Fed
Grafton influence from the schools,
gives the board privileges which no
school board should have.
ct matters little what the back
ers of the Loeb rule say, every print
er, pattern maker or carpenter who
is teaching in the schools would have
to get out of his union or the school
system if the Loeb rule were in effect.
'The maximum salary for teachers
when the federation was organized
was from $500 to $3.50; the minimum
was $500. When the teachers start
ed after more money they were told
there was no more. Then they start
ed out to see why there was no more.
''They found that the gas, electric
light and several other public utility

across through court action. Then
the schools got more money.
'This court fighting and lobbying
in Springfield for laws which would
aid the schools in what big biz terms
'pernicious political activities The
large firms do the same thing.
Il frankly believe that Mr.. Roth
mann is a mouthpiece of big business
himself.
"The teachers union saw little
children being put to work in fac
tories, so they fought for a child labor
law; they tried to get the initiative
and referendum to GUST some of big
business best slaves in public Offices.
They defeated the Cooley bill, fought
for public ownership, made some of
our big taxdodgers come across.
That's why big biz wants to put them
out of the schools, using the Loeb
rule.
You go to the stockyards and talk
to ]. Og Armour or Swift. They'll
say: Unions are fine; but don't you
know that among the ignorant for
eigners we have in the stockyards
they would never do
1.-The clothing hogs are the same
way. The say: oh, yes. We are in
favor of unions, but not unions which,
hire sluggers,' and they themselves
are hiring sluggers to beat up their
employees so they can blame the
unions.
'"The present superintendent of
schools, Mr.. Shoop, is a member of
the Assn of Comerce. You hear no
objection to this. But if one of his
teachers is a member of a labor
union they try to put her out of her
job. =.

though. They work quietly and I'M

Are Coming to Rescue of Club De-
serted by Tom Hayden, When
$4,000 In the
Hole.
ELKs RESPOND FIRST
FraternaI Order to Hold Elks Boost
err Day to Help Raise
Money for the Asso-
citation.

Two clubs in the Central associa
ton, and only two, nave stuck in thu
league through thick and thin from
the day 1t was organized These two
clubs are keokuk and Burlington. Be
cause of her smaller size the keokul
club has had a harder row to hoe than
has that of Burlington, but has stuck
!! through everything just the same.
/ Now Burlington is receiving the
hardest knocks she has felt in years
The desertion of Tom Hayden has
! thrown the club on the hands of the
Burlington business men at time
when conditions hardly could be less
favorable. The attendance there this
/ year has been extremely low-low
enough to almost discourage the direc-
| tors of the club there in any effort to
keep the game going.
Besides this, Hayden left the club
in bad financial situation. 1t has
developed that there is deficit of
fully $4,000 that will have to be as
sumed by the Burlin ston business men
if they retain the club. Were it al
most any other city in the league be-
sides Burlington Or Keokuk, there is
little question but that the sponge
would be thrown up and the city
Wouiu uiop Jul Vi LIE game. y
But it is not that way in Burling-
ton. The business men and fans there
are responding as Loyalty as they pos
sibly could to the requests for help
and say that they will refuse to let
the franchise be removed.
EIks to Rescue.
First among those coming to the
rescue of the association there were
the Elks. That organization, without
any delay, came forward with the pro-
posal that they hold an Elk booster
day at the Burlington park. The pro-
posal was gladly accepted and plans
for the booster day are now being
pushed. The Elks believe that more
than half of the money that will be
needed will be raised on this day to
be given by them.
Other organizations in Burlington
also are coming to the help of the
association Their loyalty deserves
the highest praise With the fans and
business men individually and collec-
lively behind a club as they are in
Burlington there will be no question
about their retaining the franchise.
The strength of the Central associa-
ton, conceded to be one of the great
est minor leagues in the United
States, is based upon the spirit of this
sort. Anywhere the people OF town
show SO plainly their loyalty as they
are now doing in Burlington, can any
one doubt that it is a good town, a
good place to live, and place where
you find the right kind of people.
