MINNESOTA CONGRESSMAN
FAVORS SHORTER HOURS
FOR THE MAN WHO
TOLLS,

-Congressman Thomas D. Schall,
representing the Tenth Minnesota
district, has taken up the defense of
the man who tolls and has been given
keen attention. Congressman Schall
says:
Yesterdays mistake warns us
against the blunder of tomorrow.
Our mistake in the past has been an
endeavor to transform our workers
into high speed machines, without re-
gard for the economic waste to the
worker or to the race. Faster, faster.
faster, pile up the garments; heap up
the profits, no matter if rest and
health and proper food be denied the
weary laborer; no matter if girlish
forms be withered and the promise of
our national motherhood is blighted:
no matter if the cheeks pale and the
chest becomes hollow.
Cheap Labor Not Prosperity.
"Cheap labor and long hours have
not helped to bring prosperity The
laborer goes home at night too
weary to think after a long day of
toll, at underpaid wages, to a meanlv
furnished, dark, unsanitary home, a
scant unnourishing supper and hum
py comfortless bed. He wakes early.
dons his sweaty clothes and with
them the hopeless, disspirited thoughts
that envelop them. What chance for
him to expand, to improve his mind,
to enjoy Gods fresh air and sunshine7
1T is not the question altogether
to the employer, how many shoes
are made, but how many shoes are
sold. Let us look to it that fewer of
our countrymen have shoeless feet.
With more leisure, more time for re-
Election, comes desire for improve
ment, for better living.
Greatest Good Real Aim.
"The governments aim should be
the greatest good for the greatest
number. Shorten the day of labor.
Every movement toward the shorter
Cay for the laboring man is a move
ment toward his enfranchisement.
Every man should have the right
to work, the right to sleep and the
right to play. The problem that con-
fronts the United States today is to
tighten the burden of the working
classes. The ideal of our country can
never be realized, we shall never cap
ture the spirit of liberty, while half
the people are starving and the other
half faring sumptuously every day."

pushing their way to the front and
are making a mark well worth while.
In this class Of worthy young men is
Professor s. P. Harris. secretary Of

the first layman to fill such a position.
Professor Harris is a native of Mis-
sissippi. He received his common

ing law for several years. During the
year Of 1897 he accepted the position
Of bookkeeper for the national Baptist
publishing board with DR.. R. Fl. Boyd.
He served in this position for nearly
twenty years, rendering excellent serv-
ice. He resigned this position and be-
came dean of Roger Williams univer-
sity in this city. He remained dean
for a year and resigned to take charge
as manager Of the national Baptist
publishing interests in 1915.
1t was a distinction to have the ma
tional Baptist convention select him
from the many other able men in this
country. 1t was due to his ability and
experience. He had spent seventeen
years in the Sunday school publishing
business and was perhaps better pre-
pared to do the work than any other
layman in the Baptist denomination.
In 1911 he was selected from among
many candidates member of the city

ION TO BALTIMORE"
From the Department of the Pres,
National Association of Colored
Women's Clubs.
Easily, the greatest forward race
movement of the age is the National
Association of Colored Women's
Clubs, and the leading spirit among
them the President; Mrs. Booker T.
Washington. Emerging from the
gloom which has recently enveloped
her, she has apparently re-consecra-
ted her life to the uplift of the race,
and by her helpful messages Of encour-
agement to club leaders all all over
the country is inspiring officers, de-
partment heads and members to a
greater activity than ever before been
evinced in the work.
The next Biennial will be held at
Baltimore, Md, in August. Mrs.
Washington presiding.
This meeting bids fair to be the
most interesting in the history of the
Association. The meeting in 1912 at
Hampton was intensely interesting
and inspiring; that at Wilberforce in
1914 was wonderful and far reaching
in its effects wonderful group Of
women, showing a remarkable insight
in the philosophy of life and demon
strating a constructive ability which
portends wonderful results in the next
few years.
"On to Baltimore" is the slogan Of
every race organization of women,
and where the women are the men
will likewise be found.
By courtesy of the editor / shall
