Lowing manner to what Is perhaps tho

many towns and cities in the United
States. There is in Canton big pub
lie square, block long on its four
sides, and all around this square and
It's neighborhood are the leading busi-
ness houses of the city. ON the day Of
the school parade all the merchants
lent their windows to display Of school
products
Manual training exhibits filled two
big windows. Girls Of domestic science
classes had exhibits in other windows:
for instance. n luncheon table, cor
rcctly set, and with an appetizing first
course ready on il. The work of draw
ing classes held attention I'm another
window. Geometry and algebra stu,
dents displayed their work elsewhere.
one big window was given over to the
exhibits of the towns home nursins
work, with figures showing before
ana after conditions in homes whers
public school pupils had wrought ver-
table miracles, Every department Of
primary and high school education
that lent itself to graphic illustration
was given display space downtown.
Here's wnat happened: Parents
who camo downtown to witness tho
parade-of course they came early to
get good places along the curbs-saw
all these elaborate displays and be.
gan going from one window to an
other. Mothers and fathers who never
had been inside a classroom since
they ended their own cducations
speedily got very adequate idea OF
what the Canton schools are doing"

PUNISH PATRONS OF
N0NUNI0N THEATER
Labor Council Doubles Penal
ty for Members; fuckers
Endorsed.

Nonunion theaters were again siven
consideration by the Tulsa Trades ana
Labor council last night when it was
voted to double the penalty hereto
fore imposed upon members of local
unions who were discovered patronlz-
ing such Institutions.
Following the completion of routine
business a resolution, introduced by
representative of the Tucker Broth
ers Amusement company, relative to
the support of a movement TO cree,
another theater in Tulsa that would
comply with all union requirements
was adopted.
The resolution, in part, follows
Whereas: The Tucker brothers are
all members of the Typographical
union i'm Oklahoma City and that they
have always been friends of organ
lzed labor: that their control OF a
theater in Tulsa will not only assure
all union men of a fair theater in
which they can be entertained at all
times, but will enable theatrical
workers 20 adjust labor troubles with
other theaters in Tulsa in case OF fu-
lures strikes or lockouts
Therefore be 1t resolved by the
Tulsa Central Trades and Labor coun-
ell in regularly weekly session on
Thursday night, June II, 1917. that
We place ourselves on record as fa-
Voring the proposed venture as y
bona fide, straightforward business
proposition, which we recommend 10
all union men to invest their money,
feeling at all times that he is assured
of an honest conduct OF said business
and further. that the successful
launching of the above corporation
will materially assist the Tulsa and
Oklahoma City theatrical workers in
ultimately winning their strike and
encourage the progress of organized
labor the state and nation over.
