Dish heaps and over helpless pedestrians and innO-
cent little children and babies. It will spot them
with filth from the streets and disease from the al

We are talking about this years house fly. We
are talking about it this early because we want you
to begin "swatting it, early.
''Swatting it, means many things. 1t means fly
traps, window screens fly paper, kerosene, manure
removal and tightly covered garbage cans.
While it is well to kill the individual fly, it is still
better to direct ones efforts against the breeding
places.
These breeding places include every rubbish
heap, every garbage can, every manure box and ev-
cry corner where filth has accumulated during the
winter months
Start now to clear away rubbish heaps. See that
the Of your garbage are 'fy-tight." Be-
gin cleaning up and airing out for fly eggs will not
hatch in direct sunlight if exposed to direct cur
rents of fresh air.

CHAPTER ONE.

Luke Leher worked in a clam
foundry, and the quitting whistle
had Just blown. Slowly he laid
down his clam knife and kicked
off his boots.
Luke had a heavier load on his
head than his hat, and his heart
was all aflutter. On the way
down to the "mazuma" window
he passed Aaron Aroma, the man
ager of the clam chasing depart
ment, in which Luke was now at
present.
Hello. Aroma" Luke said, as
Aroma went by, but Aroma just
gritted his teeth.
Luke smiled as he put his
weeks wages of Sass in his hip
pocket. Luke wasn't much of a
whistler, but tonight he whistled
his head off as he washed his
celluloid collar, for he was going
to call on Phoebe Pheedbag on a
very important mission.
Phoebe Pheedbag, the belle Of
Hicks county, answered the door
bell which didn't ring, and found
Luke scraping his shoes on the
mail box.
Hello" blushed Luke as he
handed Phoebe a bag of pop corn.
After sitting around impatient
ly for q half hour, Luke could
stand it no more.
phoebe, I love you! Life
without You would be as empty
as chorus mans head. I want
you to marry me, and split fifty
fifty with me on the wheat cakes
and goulash! Will you be miner"
Phoebe gave him a look that
meant, you poor fish,"
Luke, how silly of you, I'd be
crazy to marry you, a poor clam
opener. You haven't any future"
Just then Aaron Aroma walked
into the room, Hurry, get the

which he and others had volun-

Following that interview the

that it did not stand for the work

Handling a Strike

Uncle Sam is up against his first strike. But
strangely enough, unlike big private corporation,
there has been NO VIOLENCE, NO ORDERING
OUT THE TROOPS, NO REFUSAL TO RECOG-
NIZE THE UNION, AND NO ATTEMPT TO I'M
PORT STRIKEBREAKERS.
The strike occurred on the new government rail
road in Alaska, at Anchorage.
Secretary Lane received delayed cablegram from
Alaska notifying him that the common labOrers on
the government road had formed union, demanding
and increase in pay, and had struck. The men were
receiving 371a cents an hour for an eght-hour day
They demanded so cents an hour for the eight
hour day
There are about 800 labOrers at Anchorage wait
ing for the spring opening up of work About 100
were at work such jobs as could be done during
the winter. These were the who struck
Immediately receipt of the message Secretary
Lane got into communication with Secretary of
Labor W. B. Wilson who appointed a COMMITS
SION OF CANCELLATION to go to Alaska, investi-
gate conditions and recommend an adjustment.
The men were perfectly satisfied with this ar
rangement and have returned to work, pending the
adjustment, and with the understanding that if the
commission finds they are entitled to more wages,
the increase will date from the time of the strike.
The commission consists Of John A. Moffitt of
New Jersey, and Hywel Davies of Kentucky, official
conciliators Of the department of labor, and B. M.
Squres as statistician.

LUSITANIA CASE
United States Still Insist Germany
Must Meet Demands.

Washington, Feb. 1S-The United
States in it's submarine controversy
with Germany will accept nothing
short of. a full and complete agree
ment covering all the points for which
it has contended as to assurances
that the warfare in the future will
be conducted in accordance with inc
established principles Of international
law.
In announcing that fact yesterday
Secretary Lansing let it nc known
that the State Department considers
Germany's declaration Of its inter-
tior to sink without warning after
February % all armed merchant ships
of the entente allies to- be incorsl&-
tent with the assurances previously
given this government by the Ber-
lin foreign office.
The tentative communication de-
signed to end the Lusitania case, still
in the possession of Secretary Lans-
ing, will not be formally accepted
until such assurances regarding the
future are given, although the COM
munication, in so far as it relates tc
the Lusitania itself, is acceptable.
