OF PUEBLO HOLD
MONSTER PICNIC
OFFICIALS OF COMPANY
PARTICIPATE.
Ladies Will Form Auxiliary to Local
of Amalgamated Assn. of Street
and Electric Railway
Employees.
RN EARL VI. kOINS-

PUEBLO, Colo, July 30.-Division
662, A. A. of S. and Z. r. E. of A,
held their first annual picnic at Min
eral Palace park, last week and most
every street car man and his family
attended. The baskets of good things
to eat were piled high and ice cream,
lemonade and coffee were very much
in evidence. Mr. Raber, general man.
ager of the Traction company, donat-
ed several boxes of good cigars. The
officials of the car service depart
ment were invited and everyone en-
joyed himself very much. Everyone
decided that our first picnic was de-
cided success.
The ladies formulated plans which
we hope will terminate in an auxiliary.
Bro. C. G. Easterly, our first presii-
dent, addressed the noon dinner bunch
and Bro. J. W. Biggs, our past presi-
dent, spoke at the 8 o'clock meal. Our
president, D. A. Spencer, assisted by
good sized committee, handled the
program to perfection.
The New York street car men are
organizing again. When the previous
trouble started the company raised
their wages from 81 to 80 cents per
hour. However, the increase never
reached the men; now they have again
posted an increase. Four Of the men
called on the general manager last
week in regard to better conditions
and were promptly discharged with
out being given a hearing.
The congressional investigating
committee, which has just finished
its Investigations of the Washington,
D. C. lockout of the street car men,
has done some good. The company
has raised the wages and given bet
ter working conditions, before the
committee has had time to make its
report. The company must have seen
the handwriting on the wall.
Remember, the union button stands
for principles second in Importance to
none.

SOMEWHERE IN DENVER

Somewhere in Denver" there is a
woman $500 ahead of the game"
She went into local department
store during a rush hour, and bought
pair of hose for SO cents, giving a
dollar bill in payment. At the same
time, another customer at the same
counter, purchased pair of hose for
SO cents, rendering a SO bill.
Behind the counter a frail, tired lit
tie salesgirl waited on the two women.
She'd been standing on her feet be-
hind the counter for hours and hours
the heat was merciless, the store
crowded.
She was a game little salesgirl, tho,
and she tried to hurry so her custom
ers wouldn't be kept waiting. So,
somehow, the change got mixed, and
she gave the change for the $40 bill
to the woman who gave her 81. When

in most of our experience in the en-
ployment line satisfaction all around
has been invariably the case. To say
that in carrying on this feature of the

work day shortened, more than justi-

The poverty cry of railroads is not
sustained by reports of 173 of the
principal railroads to the interstate
commerce commission. The earnings
of these roads in May, 1917, increased
more than So 100000 over May, 1916.
