II have seen soldiers working in
captured German trenches turned up
side down by Lloyd-Geerge's artillery,
working under heavy fire, and when
the ssrapsel OF the big shells came
too close for comfort they would
simply look up for a moment, while
those among them who showed the
slightest sign of nervousness became
the target Of ridicule on the part of
their comrades.
Talk to the English officers about
their Tommies and their eyes will
glow brilliant with pride, altho all
they say is that they are an awful
fine lot Words equally fail me
when l want to say what think Of
the English officers.

have a corps of officers of whom we
are justly proud, | have often heard
it said in military circles that ii was
impossible that the great new Brit

knew their profession well enough
TO render first-class service in modern

Il know myself what they think

SMALL STRIKE IN BURLINGTON.
Is Electrical Workers Quit When Their
Demands Were Refused.

Burlington, Feb. about l5 of the
employees of the Burlington Light & Pow
er company, who are members of the re-
| Gently organized electrical workers. I'M
ion, left their work yesterday morning
and walked out, when their demands for
new scale of wages were refused by
the company. Only three of the men
are engaged at the electric light plant,
the Others being employed in inside wir-
ing in houses and in the installing OF
electrical fixtures, so that their leaving
will not interfere with the company's
supplying of light to its patrons or Sc
riously hinder their work. 1t is under
stood that the action of the men at the
Burlington Light & Power company yes
terday will not affect the electrical work
ers at the city light department, the
telephone company or the other electric
plants in the city.
The men are reported to have demand
ed an eight hour day, instead of the pres
ent nine-ho day, with the same wage
scale that is in force on the nine hour
basis. The Burlington Light & Power
company offered to let them work only
eight hours, but wished to pay them for
only eight hours, instead of nine hours
work, as at present. When the matter
was not adjusted all of the union men in
the company's employ left their work
The union presented their demands to
the company some time ago, and the men
have recently been working only eight
hours day and receiving pay for that
amount of time, but We're not satisfied
with the condition of affairs.
