Begin Work Monday Cleaning Teeth of
 School Children

During the last school year large number of the pupils from the aeuth to the eighth grades applied to the dental hygienists who were working in the schools, for a cleaning and pol ishing of their teeth. It was impossi- b1e to meet this request at that time as the hygienists were occupied with the children of the first, second and third grades. In order to give the older children this opportunity the board of health has authorized number of hygienists to begin work on Monday, August 25, at 1875 Main street and to continue at this address until the opening of the schools in September. Their hours will be from until 12 and 1:30 to 4:so, except ing Saturday aftrnoons. Any pupil in the public schools may go to the clinic rooms, Arch and Main streets, and have his teeth cleaned free of charge and receive instructions in Brushing and the home care of their mouths. This is an excellent oppor- tunity for the older children to re- ceive the benefits of these prophy1ac- tic treatments.

 ''Mr. Ernest Bohm. sec1etary, CentEal
 Federated Union:
 | t'Dear Sir and Brother Your com tnunication of the 24th inst to hasle and contents noted. h it you ask no to make a statement relative to news l paper reports in all Of last weeks p'z- pers' alleging that officers of interna.- tiona1 unions received German money l to pull off strikes in Br1dgeports Conn and elsewhere in ammunition faclo.- ries.
 Tn the first place, 4n reply I woa say that there are several unissta- ments in the question. never me toned officers of international unioHz7 nor did use the word German; nor did I mention Bridgeport nor~did re- fer to ammunition factories. What did say was that authentic 1nforIne-- ton has come to me that efforts have been made to corrupt men for the pur- pose of having strikes inauguratad among seanen and longshOremep en- gagged in the handling of America products and manning ships contain ing American products consigned lr certain European ports; that the COZ rupting influence was being conductecL by agents of a foreign government and that had no doubt that the saIHe agencies and influences were at work elsewhere with the same purpose ln view.
 sIn the effort to organize the yet unorganized workers of our country in the effort to secure a reduction o1 the hours of labor and higher wages and better conditions for the toilars of our country I am not only in eutre sympathy, but that has been my hf5's work and hope, and shall continue tc give every assistance to the fullest lengths of whatever ability may have and opportunity which may present it- self for their accomplishment, but much work must be done by the men and women in the trade union move ment of America But we should an enter a sympathetic protest and froWI down upon any foreign Interference no matter by whom actuated, par dcularly when that motive is ute rior and to the detrin-ent Of the good name, growth and permanencC of our great cause.
 ssAlready the enemies of the labor movement have banded about and at tackled the honor and good name of our movement, and the untrutlf1l charge has been made that strikes have been inaugurated for a money 'consid eratfon That the effort has been made. to corrupt some of our TE en for such a purpose is true but that the strikes have been inaugurste is untrue, and it is untrue because the men who have given time and service to the workers of our country have interposed in time.
 eff men in the labor movement are to be criticised and condemned be cause they propose to stand true tC it's fundamental principles. to have it conducted from top to bottom honest and clean, that the labor movement shall be the guardian and. the cham pion of the cause of the workers when the toiIers shall need it most after this titanic struggle shall have come to an end, then earnest devotion uc the struggle of labor and humanity will be in in vein. Externally yours.
