DIR. Henry Atkinson, social secretary
of the Congregational churches and well
known in labor circles as the author OF
the report on the Colorado coal strike,
which was adopted by the Federal Coun-

the labor movement is well known and
he has been requested to speak upon the
subject of "The Church and Labor"
A broad and penetrating study OF the
conditions Of the working class and -
intimate acquaintance with the inner
workings of the church, which is seek

COURT SAYS ACT IS ALL RIGHT

The worllmen's compensation act oil
1915 has been sustained as constitutional
by the supreme court of Pennsylvania
Chief Justice Brown writing the opinion
of the court sweeps away all the tech
nical objections. The United States su-
preme court has held that it was within
the general powers of state to pass
laws compelling employers of labor to
compensate their employees for injuries
sustained in the course of their employ
ment without regard to the question OF
negligence. The decision clears the way
for legislation at the next session of the
legislature in accordance with the con
stitutional amendment adopted last No
vembcr, authorizing the making compul
sorry of the workmen's compensation act.

Great Revival of Organization

Held in Louisville Last Sunday
(By Martin c. Black.

LOUISVILLE, Coo, Sept. 2s-There is
great revival of unionism now going
on among the coal miners of this dis
trict. Wednesday night, September %,
Frederick Local No. 1858, u. NJ. w. of A,
reorganized with membership of sixty
five. -----
Since the big mass meeting at Lafay-
cite, that local has taken in several new
members.
The Gorham local recently had little
controversy on account of opposition by
the mine managers to a checkweighman
elected by the men, However, the mat
ter was adjusted, thru assistance OF
State Labor Commissioner Swanson in
favor of the miners. This only adds EN-
phasis to the fact that strong organi'
zation is necessary to insure enforcement
of state laws affecting labor
At the present time the miners OF
northern Colorado are working under
more adverse conditions than for many
years past. Therefore the miners are
realizing the need of active unionism to
gain relief.
The mass meeting at Louisville last
Sunday was largely attended and much
good resulted Tho the men in this sec
tion have suffered much during the past
five years strike, they still have plenty
of pep and the union spirit" is not dead
by any means. 1t won't be long before
they are once more soldly organized.

FARM MAKERS CLUBS
AMONG COLORED PEOPLE;

According to the report of A. A.
Turner, manager club agent of the
Farm Makers Clubs, Florida A. & M
College, Tallahassee, there are over
400 negro boys and girls in this and
other counties over the state being
taught better farming by this system
of farm training afforded them by
the state and federal aids.
Up to the present, seven counties
are getting the benefit of this oppor-
tunity among negro youth. Twenty.
nine of the total number enrolled dur
ing the past season are working in
this county and getting good results
in their work. A much larger enroll
ment will be shown another year, as
the work was no more than introduced
the past year.
Information has been received that
champions in the corn, pig, poultry
and canning clubs, including the seven
counties, will receive the following
prizes: A scholarship in the Florida
A. & M. College, for the corn winner;
a thoroughbred Duroc-Jersey gilt for
the winner in the pig club March
pig); $50 canning outfit will be
given the best tomato grower and
one-half dozen thoroughbred pullets
and cockerel will be awarded the
champion in the poultry club. The
prizes named will be considered as
state prizes; county prizes will also
be given for the winners in each Oh
the clubs mentioned for each county
All prizes given will be based upor
the work done by each member as
shown by the reports they submit or
their work this fall as greatest yield
cheapest cost of production, best
written report on their work, etc.
Fifteen canning machines have beer
purchased by the various school:
working in the seven counties which
has been the means of hundreds OF
cans of fruit and vegetables being put
up that would have otherwise beer
wasted.
The coming of farm makers club:
to the negro boys and girls in thi:
county will afford them better oppor
ttlnities in farming and enable then
to show progress along the line o.
better farming and better living.

think that he had lost his reckoning

public buildings, stores and private
dwellings whose owners are the proud
possessors of a piece of national
bunting are still displaying the same
from their house tops or front
porches, while great many teams
and carriages and even the pulpits in
therchurches, many of which own
beautiful silk flags, have them placed
one on>each side of the preacher. By
little investigation / find that they
were all brought out and the whole
city beautifully decorated in honor OF
the soldier boys when they left q
short time since for the Mexican
border, and the flags are still flying
that those boys may know they are
not forgotten. We think this quite q
pretty idea and commend it to the
Ocala friends of Co. A.

MAXWELL SMASHES
RECORDS IN THE WEST
Ray Mcnamara Makes New Time Be.
tween Spokane and Seattle,
Portland and Spokane

Ray F. Mcnamara, plotting a Max
well car, recently made some remark
able records on the western coast,
adding to the reputation this make
has established for all-around eff
cheney.
He broke all speed records in a run
from Spokane to Seattle in stock
Maxwell roadster. The elapsed time
for this run was eleven hours, fifty
five minutes. The Maxwell bettered
the train schedule between these
points by more than an hour and low
cred the former automobile record by
five hours.
Mcnamara averaged thirty-two
miles an hour across the desert lands
of eastern Washington. He crossed
the dangerous Blewitt Pass in the
Wenatchee mountains and the Sno-
qua1mie Pass in the Cascades after
midnight and arrived in Seattle early
in the morning.
This record run was checked official.
ly by the newspapers of Spokane and
Washington.
Another record run for speed anC
efficiency was hung up by McNa.
mara on run from Portland to Spo.
kane. The distance is 458 miles anG
the elapsed time was fifteen hours anG
thirty-one minutes. The best previous
record for this run was made last
May, when motor car did the dis
tance in twenty hours and thirty min.
utes.
Mcnamara attributes the success Of
both runs to the quick acceleration
perfect cooling system, excellent
brakes and the Maxwelps ability t.
stand a good hard beating over a haz
ardous course.
During his tours in the west, the
Maxwell pilot has been gathering
some valuable road information fol
the benefit of motorists. A recent tril

A MUSICAL EVENING
At Black Point for the Memuers of
Company A

Especial Correspondence of the Starr
Black Point, Aug. 20.-There was a
jolly time in Co. AS stret last night
as the boys danced to the tune of
"Don't Hesitate, But Do It Now"
Max Tobleske, with his mandolin,
and Freeman with his guitar fur
nished music for the dance.
There was much musical talent
shown when the boys sung "Fare-
well,' "Dear Old Girl "I'm On My
Way to Mexico" "Down on the Rio
Grande,' etc.
To cheer things up the boys sang
for the grand finale, 81 Know You are
Waiting" In Garland of Old Fash
ion Roses" Beneath the Southern
Pines" "Down on the S'wanee River
and sI'm Coming Back to You."
The Second Regiment went out
Monday morning for a~22-mile hike,
intending to camp out at night and
return Tuesday evening, but owing to
the heavy rain that set in at $3.50 it
was decided to return to camp and
start on another hike Tuesday morn
ing. The boys returned to camp all
wet but in good spirits after making
eleven miles.
Max Tobleske, of the mounted
