The Allies are at present facing
one Of the gravcst crises which if
has been their misfortune to eNpcr-
fence Since the war began, that is
they are lamcntably short of am
munltlOn. Added to this, owing
to the crushing blows administered
to the Russians by the Germans,
the latter have 900 900 supcrblv
organized and thoroughly seasoned
soldiers which she is going to throw
into the fray with a suddcnncss
calculated to make the Allies fully
realize that the Kaiser, Won Hin
dcnburg and Won Tirpitz arc a trio
with whom the combined war lords
OF Europe must reckon. Germany
may not suit the fanCicS of MANY.

Miners Joining Union

Hazelton, Pa. Sept. Last week
President White, of the United Mine
Workers union, started on the last
lap Of his organizing campaign
through the three anthracite districts.
In his opening address in this city to
the miners of district No. Z he de-
clared that the coal diggers were
aawke to the necessity of standing
100 per cent strong behind their rep
rsentatives at the forthcoming tri-
district convention at Wilkes Barre,
which will formulate, the new wage
scale. 1t is estimated that President
White has been listened to by a quar-
ter Of a million of people throughout
the hard coal regions. In his opening
speech in this city he referred to con-
ditions in Colorado and charged that
money is financing the at

WE WILL NOW HAVE
A Feu Remarks
BY WALTER B. HILTON

n LTHOUGT THE NEWEST Of our legal holidays
n Labor Day has come to mean more in the public
mind than any other with the possible exception OF
Christmas The greatness of other holidays lies IN the
past that they commemorate the greatness OF Labor Day
lies in the future that it promises.
It not possible that every marcher and spectator
the full panorama the ages OF struggle through the
mre of superstition and ignorance before the chains OF
serfdom could be broken and the sun OF freedom SHINE
upon the brow of Labor sweated with toll and turroWed
with pan nor the higher life and greater freedom yet to
come, when manhood and womanhood will be crowned,
and children grow unhndered into their natural In
heritance of earth and the fulness thereof.
But that is Labor Day. it is q reminder OF the past
fact of the present. promise Of the future It proves
that we have through the night, plodding
through the present and into the glorious dawn-by
solidarity.
The close filled ranks Of men and women, boys and
girls striking proof that there is magic in the
Of progress that there is secret in the means by which
these things have been attained Il their conditions are
BETTER if their wages higher if their toll is less
haustng, is only because they have united Thus the
unorganzed their opportunity.
If every clerk and Office employee along the line of
march would follow the example set for them by those
who march Monday the next year would their
conditions proporionately improved. Indeed the i'm
pfovements their work shows have been relatively
gained for them by the workers OF all other crafts and
dustries who have lifted them by lifting themselves.
To the business the Labor pageant should prove
that their business his business On what foundation
does the commercial prosperity OF community rest it not
upon the wage workers? And if they worked
and lily paid, will they not be poor customers? The
Schmulbach building set ia the middle Of the Sahara de-
sert would not be worth the brcksI Nor yet will mere
numbers give value than mere words made a
poem. There must be prosperity. There must be
decent wages and the leasure to enjoy and profit there
will be no higher desires and meansOf satisfying them
To the employer there should be double meaning
If he hostile to the attempts Of the workers to crafty
in some their aspirations Of the good
things of life the strength of Labor visuahzed should
modify his antagonism and RESTRAIN his opposition he
is one who treats with Labor human beings capable
of desires as himself who sits and with them ano
does the best he can under competitive conditions he
have the sweet peace Of who has done his FULL unset
fish duty in the effort to uplift mankind.

I'VE are fighting above a Greek
cemetery Of great antiquity, and in
digging our latest line Of trenches we
found stone sarcophagi which are GER
tainly more than 1000 years old
probably nearer $500 years. The
walls are thick and the collins very
big. They are filled with fine earth
which has slowly intruded through
the cracks Of the lid. With great
care we sft out from this the skee-
tons, more or less preserved, and in
the bottom we find vases, bowls,
lamps and sometimes statues. The
