coLoRlNG EASTER EGGS.

In modern times these fayors nave been

which these Easter eggs are now col

with finer artistic sense would sew the
eggs into bits of fadable calico, from
which would be printed some rare and
radiant Dolly Warden patterns, which
were q delight to look upon. Such
treasures were often cherished In the
household, displayed in a dish on the
parlor mantelpiece for weeks and
months to be shown to visitors. that
they might marvel at grandnother's
wondroua art. And at the end of this

egg was to bear upon its side a brief

In England, In the quaint old town
OF Chester, the pace or Pask eggs

Eric, after the effects of that cruel
night had washed themselves away In
tears, rose manfully to the exigencies

RAP ATTEMPT TO PUT OVER
DUAL SCHOOL SYSTEM

Several hard knocks have been
handed the proposed dual education7
al system, which provides a school
for the children of society and aRoth-
er for the laboEing mans sons and
daughters, since the Woman's Trade
Union league meeting in Orchestra
hall, at which Mrs. Ella Flagg Young,
sup't of schools, and Victor Olan-
der of the Seamen's union slammed
the dual system upheld by former
Sup't Of Schools Cooley.
Aggressive action is now planned
by trade unionists. That it was a
menace to union labor was the opin-
ion of Mrs. Young.
ut is an idea among manufaetur-
ers that If the boys take a tWO-yeaF
vocational training course under the
proposed system when they come out
they will fit into the open shop and in
a few years there viii be no such
thing as labor union man at work.
"f the proposed vocational train
ing system should be adopted the
unions must fight it by giving the
boys credit as WOrkmen while they
are in school and take them into the
fold as journeymen under union
wages"
Victor Olander of the seamen's
union also raped the dual system
from standpoint of a labor unionist.
Il object to q system which says
that the child of a laborer shall al
ways be a labOrer, and when we split
the schools into one for the paOF and
another for the rich we are reach
ing that end.
