WHY NOT MELONS FOR THE
WORKERS?-Suppose the Amalga-
mated Order of BOokkeepers through
their chairman, waited on the boss
tomorrow morning and said: BOSS,
we must have a 100 per cent increase

Or suppose the International Asso-

Yet, why not? We read in the pa

Crs Of beef, have just cut a melon of
100 per cent stock issue, or it's equiv

cent profits for the stockholders. The
steel trust has just announced quar-

have been frightfully abused for ask

cent raise in wages. How much have
the middle class mans, the salaried
mans, wages been increased? How
many instances can you find in which
his income has been doubled? How
many in which it has been increased
to the extent of 10 per cent, which

France the other day, He was the
heir to a peerage-that Of Lord Glen

name.
They found in a pocket of his
Jacket a short note, scratched on
scrap of paper, On the outer side of
the folded sheet was the one word:
Mother" The note read:
'"This is written in case anything
happens to me, for I should like you

represents the rise in the retail price
of food during the past five years?
How many cases are there where
wages have been increased 10 per
cent, which represents the rise in re-
tail prices of food during the last
year?
Think it over. Suppose your book
keeper announced to his boss; 81
have decided to take enough in salary
to cover depreciation, meaning de-
probation of my health, my age and
my mental powers" Suppose the
bookkeeper announced further that
he would like a sinking fund.-"
fund for increasing his equipment"
also an amount to be set aside as a
surplus; an amount for future
betterments" a special fund to pay
taxes"
Why should corporations talk the
language of "betterments," Sur
plusses," depreciation" sinking
funds" ETC., and not the salaried
man? A corporation only has
MONEY invested in its business. The
INDIVIDUAL is selling his BRAINS,
his LIFE, and his BODY. Which has
the higher claim?

Lloyd-George, minister of munition,
: one civilian who has been spoken of
for the place.:
The demand for the interment of
aliens grows out of the fact that be-
lief is almost Britain-wide that the
Germans knew exactly of the move
n,ents of Lord Kitchener. The Morn
ing Post says:
circumstances point at espionage
81 treachery and the country will
suspect this the more owing to the
singular freedom still allowed to
laemy subjects of Great Britain"
The Northcliffe group of papers
asks that interment of aliens of bel
l.gerent origin take place at once.
The Northcliffe papers. too, in their
editorial on Kitchener in the main
il accord with all others in their
warm praise, of his work.
The Morning Post urges Lord Mil
rer at Kitchener's logical successor,
and holds that the appointment of
Lloyd George would be a mistake.
