navy YARD WAGE SCALE :

AGREEhEyIlSREAcHED
Increase of 10 rr Cent Over Current
Year Is Result of Con.
ferences. ~

An agreement as to wases .at navy
yards has been reached 1between the
federal labor board and the presidents
of the international trade unions the
effect OF which will be an average in
crease OF wages of navy yard employees
of about 10 per cent compared with the
wage scale for the current year. The
main point remaining to be settled. ac-
cording to Assistant Secretary Roose-
Welt, with whom the presidents are still
in conference, is whether the increase
over the 1917 scale shall be fixed in per-
centage OF the old rate or on a definite
number of cents per hour for each
branch OF each trade
Equalization of pay within the trades
II proposed and, 1t was said, the effect
would be to place all of the men on the
basis of pay, of the top men of. tina,
trade The actual increase for the high
men would be small in some cases not
more than per cent. For the men in
lower ratings. however, the advance
would be 25 per cent or more.

TROLLEY COMPANY MUST Be
HOCCISHLY GREEDY FOR MONEY
Bucks County Railway Company Willing do Mans Work for 2S
Year by Carrying Mails Between Lambertve and New Hope
Suppaning Faithful Efficient William Mccartney
SCHEME SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FULLY

The greed of some corporations and the boneheaded-
of United States postal officials are both past
understanding!
The dismissal of William Mccartney, who has faith
fully and efficiently carried the mail between Lambertve
and New Hope for than fifteen years. and giving the
contract to the Bucks County Railway is than mis-
take-its crime The postal official responsible for it
should spend his remaining days in federal prison.
If the Bucks County Railway is in such desperate need
of money that &c. day looks attractive to it, then let's
pass the hat and take up collection for its benefit It's
only few years ago that this company refused to
carry the mail between Bristol and Doylestown because
contract paying several thousand dollars not profitable
enough to suit them.
It now appears that mail contracts have been given
for service to Yarey and Newtown apparently suppant
ing an efficient railroad service to the general nconven
fence of the public
Not all the hogs are fourfooted animals. The Bucks
County Railway is another species.
1t operates in Lambertville without legal franchise.
It removed it's tracks from Lambert street in defiance
of the law.
1t recently raised its fares to Trenton twenty per
without anybody's consent.
It uses private sidewalks in the borough of New Hope
and CITY of Lambertvie for its waiting stations.
It has kicked about carrying newspapers from Tren-
ton unless bountifuy paid yet for $28 year will
dertake to perform that will cost ten times that
if does satisfactorily. The company either needs
lunacy commission court investigation; it either not
not knowing it's costs, else making money its present
fares out of all proportion to it's investment
The city of Lambertvie has the power to prevent it's
cars from proceeding beyond the middle of the Delaware
bridge, if it so elects.
The public has an absolute right to know everything
about these mail contracts and also how much the Bucks
County Railway paid for the Trenton New Hope & Lam
bertville Railway and what it costs to carry passenger
If mail can be proftably carried at less than onequarter
of per SACK and toted to postoces and train,
ordinary passenger ought to ride between Lamberte and
Trenton for about six cents instead of thirty cents

THE LOST WAND

One day the Fairy Queen went
out riding. AS she was riding she
dropped her wand. She did not
notice it then, but when she wanted
to go home she couldn't because she
didn't have her wand.
Two little children lived in the
woods where she dropped her wand.
They were hunting wild flowers
when they saw something shining
in the violets.
Look here! What this!" ex-
claimed the little girl.
ut looks like a fairy's wand!"
exclaimed the little boy. That's
the way they are in the pictures!
II wonder who could have lost
It," said the little girl.
Here comes the Fairy Queen.
let's run to meet her. Maybe she
lost it," said the little boy.
When the Fairy Queen saw the
wand she was very glad. She ask
ed them what they wanted. They
said they wanted to 60 to fairyland.
The fairy took them to a tree
right beside their house. With her
wand she touched the three. Seven
little men came out to put away
her rabbits, which she used for
horses. She took the children in
side. They went all around fairy
land and had very nice time. The
Fairy Queen told them to come
back whenever they wanted to
when they were ready to 60 home.
The children told their parents
about what q nice time they had.
They went to fairyland whenever
they wanted to. after that.-Glenna

The Lilaocand Her Fairy

Once upon a time there was
lilac who had a maid which she
called her fairy.
Indeed she was a very nice girl.
She had big brown eyes and brown
hair and she always wore violet
color dress trimmed in green, for
she dressed like her lilac queen.
When winter came she had to
leave her beautiful lilac queen.
How sad 1t was to leave her lilac
queen. She stayed in the house all
winter looking sadly out the win
dow at her queen which was cover
ed with snow.
One day it got warm. The birds
sang and the queen lilac had little
birds all over. TT is spring." she
said to herself.
The next day she went out into
the lilac yard. The lilac was in
bloom. She danced with delight,
but the lilac queen noticed that her
fairy had on that beautiful dress
OF violet color trimmed in green.
The lilac queen smiled and her
fairy bent her and her lilac's over
and touched them softly. And the
girl-fairy was so glad to be with
her lilac queen once more that she
stayed with them all summer and
took care of them.-By Esther A.
