Although the Grand Central station

This law would of necessity result
in some very deep thinking on the
part of the employers who make it a
practice to hire children to do the
work of men at mere pittance.
Also they would face the fact of
the lack of men laborers, and it is a
foregone. conclusion that within
short time the men could secure
steady work and demand a. proper
living wage, therefore resulting in
the husband and father providing de-
cent living for his wife and children,
Also the wives would take hold Of
household duties and give proper
maternal care to their little ones with
a heart from which all care and anxi-
ETY. that now holds sway would be
released.
Civilization also would benefit, for
it is useless to state that prosperity
in whatever guise it may assume
would eventually result if children of
tender age were given their child
hoods freedom and the loving care
of parents who themselves are at
least free from the worry and fret
ting consequent upon facing the
problem of how to make both ends
meet that is now so prevalent
Therefore all right thinkers must
agree with the writer in saying:
"Give the men a proper living wage
and abolish the employment of chill
dren of immature years and give
them the divine right to live that our
Creator installed into every one at
its birth"

UNION
Enormous Reservoir

The c. S. Lambie Company of Dem
yer, Colorado has commenced work
on a half million gallon water reser-
voir for the town of Clayton. This
work when completed will prove Of
inestimable value to the town. The
water supply has been necessarily H.
mited in the past as the town long
ago outgrew its water facilities.
Work on new and deeper wells has
been progressing for some time and
when these and the new reservoir,
which is now in course of construc-
ton, are complete Clayton will have
ample water supply for some time
to ONE. The reservoir is being con-
structcd of concrete and will have
eight feet of the base underground
and well provided with settling tanks
and everything modern that goes TO
make up a first class reservoir.
The contract price is $l0,5W which
taking the requirements of the con-
tract that everything is to be first
class into consideration, would seem
to be little enough for the work TO
be done. Significant feature of he
contract is the following provision
which our own laboring element will
probably appreciate: "In employing
men or teams, preference shall at
all times be given to residents of
the town of Clayton and no m shall
be employed who is not a resident as
,ong as local labor is available which
is suitable for the work to be done"
This is a timely provision in the con-
tract protecting the labor Of the
town OF CLAYTON many of whose Ia
borers are her best contributors in
all that goes to make a good, sub
stantial. progressive town. The new
reservoir is being constructed on the
property near the power and
light plant and the comforts and ad-
vantages It will furnish the town
when comp etc cannot come too soon.

The turkey that the Aztecs wor.

the white touches on its tell coverts

other parts of South America, whose

The American wild turkey. which
really belongs to Thanksgiving. was
the North American wild turkey

known as the Meleagris Americana.
Its plumage is black. shaded with
bronze. In the rays of the sun the
bird CLEANS in a beautiful harmony Of
black copper, gold and bronze. And the.
