WHEN LOVE WAS YOUTHFUL
The Little Girl With Pigtai and
skinny Legs Is Sweet Memory to
Dayton journal Man.

Did you marry your first little
sweetheart, she OF the pinafore frock
and, perhaps. the barber-pole stock
ings? 1t is certain that at times she
wore a cute little braided queue
though sometimes-when she was
dressed up--her hair hung in cuils
down her slender back. How The sun
glinted in those curls, making them to
shine with a splendor akin to that
which lights the wing Of drifting an.
gels in the dreams Of night!
Do you remember where you stood
when you first kissed her? OF course.
you do, says writer in the Dayton
(O) Journal. That is an incident
which is craven in our memory for
ever and ever You felt thrifty and
chilly and warm and were half scared
to death. You saw God in her eyes
and felt him in your soul Wouldn't
you give all you have, or ever expect
to have. in exchange for the innocence
Of your heart as it beat that day
against the little throbbing heart in
her tender breast?
But did you marry her? Some syn
dicate writer is asking the question
and promises soon to tell us all about
it, provided a lot of people VIII first
write letters telling her all about II.
Perhaps you married this little
woman Of dreams, and perhaps vou
did not. The chances are that you
did not But you will remember the
sweet ache that troubled your soul in
the days when you were wooing her
with a chivalry unknown to al who
have passed beyond the heaSenland
of childhood. X
When you think Of her now your
soul yearns backward to that never
never land. and maybe the moisture
of sweet sad tears fills your eye.
Did you marry her? Did you2
II you did. then, sometimes, when
you take her hand, in the quiet Of
summer evening, together you may
read the palmiest of mewosy, joying
as it is given to but few mortals to
rejoice. .

Street Commissioner Dan Beets is
fully alive to the Importance Of con-

bridge at Fourth street, and believes
that such action will save wear and

vehicle now using the wooden bridge
on Sixth street weighs fully 10000
pounds with its load and this is one
of the burdens which could be shifted
to the concrete thoroughfare with
profit.

said Commissioner Beets, "and l hope
proper arrangements can be made with
the county to push the work"

Double Guard at Barns.
The squad Of police at the West
Farms car barns was almost doubled
as a result of Edward A. Maher, Jr.s,
charge that strikers, by opening the
mir control on the car that figured IN
the accident. had been responsible for
Motorman Louis lsaacs losing control
of his brakes. George McNab, pres
j6ent OF the union trolleymen in The
Bronx. denied yesterday that any OF
his men had tempered with the car.
A strikebreaker motOrman in charge
of a Broadway car in Manhattan was
responsible for one accident yester-
day. which caused minor injuries TO
three men. The car plunged into an
open switch at Manhattan Street and

were struck as the car swung out

appeared at the Belmont headquarters
Yesterday "to explain the origin of the
brotherhood" and define its position
toward the Amalgamated Association

ployes.

THE marlborough has been generous
with the brotherhood, and all Of our
10000 members think they stand n
better chance Of getting fair play from
Shonts and Hedley than from Fitzger-
aid and company"
Harry Post. representing the motor
men, switchmen and towermen, said the
brotherhood had grown out of an
earnest desire of all employees 70 "get
into closer touch" with the manage
ment. After being considered for a
wear or more, il was organized on
August %. when a demand for wage
increase was made ard granted by the
company The committeeman dis
agreed on the question whether the in
dividual contract plan was suggested by
the marlborough or by the brotherhood.
Mr.. Post was certain the brotherhood
insisted every man sign his own con-
tract, while Mr.. Harrigan thought the
Interborough had required the men TO
do so.
Mr.. Quackenbush came TO the aid Of
the brotherhood representatives with
the statement that the lnterborough
had suggested the individual contract
to forestall the possibility of charges
by the union that the men had been
sold"

A reporter who had just bought HIM
self a pair Of nobby shell-rimmed eye
glasses, but who had been compelled to
don a collar OF last weeks vintage be-
cause he was unfortunate enough to
patronize the most stubborn laundry
man on earth, went around to 16 Bow
cry yesterday afternoon TO see how
Aleck Cohen was getting along with
his task Of hiring strikebreakers.
The building contains the headquar-
tiers of the Sixth Ward Athletic Club,
but the place had been loaned to Aleck
Cohen, experience having taught the
club boys that occasionally a strike
breaker would feel so good over get
ting a job that he would replenish the
house growler.
The reporter took one look at the
dark and dingy stairway which wound
up two flights to the Athletic Club and
decided that he'd better stick his eye
glasses in his pocket and keep them
there until he reached Fifth Avenue.
This didn't inconvenience him any.
Several athletes were sitting in groups
at tables, playing pinochle and doml-
noes, and trying earnestly TO prove
their theory that alcohol is a food. A
fat man with pink suspenders and a
bucket Of beer, who appeared to own
the place, arose.
Stranger Invited In.
"Hello!" he cried. "Come right in!
How are YOU"
Where's Mr.. Cohen?" he was asked.
"Not here" said the fat man. Gone.
I'm in charge here now; I'm the boss.

job. All right; we'll give you job.

three bucks; no banner money. How's
that? All right, you'll be motorman.
Like to fight?"
WELL" said the reporter, ~ can
fight, but | can't say that | like to
fight"
That's the stuff" grinned the fat
man, winking ponderous eye. "You
said il! Never start nothin'. End it!
That's our motter. Let the other guy
start it, but you end it. You got it.
That's the dope. Sign here"
Take En- on" He Shouts.
The reporter didn't want a job. He
hadn't come there for a job. He had
been a strike breaker for two hours in
The Bronx strike and had caught two
bricks with his hair That was enough
But there seemed to be only one way
Of getting out of taking the job. So
he drew his shell-rimmed eye glasses
from his pocket and stuck them on
his nose, curling the ribbon daintily
over his ear.
"Take EN- Oft" howled the fat man.
