Organized labor went against a stone
wall during the past week when they
attempted TO force the Closed Shop on
Frye & Company, the largest meat
packers in the Northwest. Charles
Frye, the head Of the concern has
always been an Open Shop man and
has paid MS employees handsome wages
in addition to treating them with every
consideration. The men were all
satisfied with their wages and treatment,
but were induced to join a movement
against Frye for the Closed Shop. They
walked out, when their demands were
refused but their places were quickly
filed by open shop men and the Frye
plant is moving along without any

The meatless day program has start
ed in Seattle and it is hoped TO have
the same spread to every nook and
corner of the state. Housewives in
sympathy with the efforts Of the Gov
eminent to conserve the food supply
of the country have set aside one day
a week when no meat is served in the
home and some have gone so far as to
make il two days. During the past
week a number of well known local
restaurants have announced meatless
menus. The patrons are taking kindly
to ii and are giving these restaurants
their support and encouragement.
Seattle housewives have started on
another campaign and that is for the
OF the bread supply.
People are being urged to cut the
bread at the table as they need it and

Mrs. Inez Haynes Irwin,
wife of Will Irwin, writer and
war correspondent, witnessed
the recent Stecher-Santel
wrestling match i'm San Fran

the manifestation of the
strength of trained muscles,
but also a beauty that be-
longs to the world of art.
Mrs. Irwin, who has writ

ling match at Frisco:

this wrestling contest with the

the boxing contest that l saw

more picturesque, and wrestling
more terrific, more impressive and
more sculpturesque.

afternoon, a thousand group COM

seemed to me, could do justice to
