System important Habit.

One of the most important habits to sorm is that of system. It Is habit natural to some women, but to most 1t Is an acquired one. It is generally cultivated virtue, achieved through dogged persistence and in spite of many falling from grace. Some of the most systematic persons can recall days when an utter lack of system dominated their lives. The discomfort they suffered then keeps them on guard lest they slip back into their old way of doing. It is best to begin to be systematic when one is young. but there Is no bigger mistake than to consider unsystematic ways irremedi. able after youth has passed. Anyone can cure the fault of watt of system and save oneself needless inconven. fences and increase ones usefulness to other peOple.-Exche ,0e.

OUR MORTUARY RECORD

Influenza and pneumonia have
caused a large number of deaths
among the membership of the In
ternational Union. During the pc
riod when the epidemic was at its
height throughout the country, from
September q to Noember 90 inclu-
sic, 81 death benefits were paid, to-
falling $1O2,393.76. This is more
than double the usual number in a
similar period in normal times, and
majority of these deaths can be
attributed to the prevalent disease
or as a result of the after effects.
A number of our members in war
service succumbed during the period
mentioned, several being killed in
battle and some dying of disease in
various training camps in this
country.-Typographical Journal.

EMPLOYERS ROCKING THE
BOAT

Scarcely had the ink become dry
on the armistice document which
ended the world war than a declara
ton was made by the president of
the National Founders Association
that an immediate reduction Of
wages must be made in industry, to-
gether with a frightening of the
hours of labor. This is just what
we are prepared to expect of the
reactionaries after the close of hos
tilities. They are determined to 90
back to the old days of free and un-
checked exploitation of labor. They
are opposed to introducing reforms
and more democracy. They declare
that the war labor adjustment
board should not be permitted to
proceed with it's policy for fear that
all plants will be unionized, the
closed shop prevail, and employers
rendered powerless to deal with in
dividual workers. 1t is hard to get
some things through the craniums
of the browbeaters of labor. The
lessons of the war eidently have
not taught the strong in wealth and
weak in conscience that they are not
to continue to overpower the poorer
man and prey on the people.-Typo-

HTUDYING UNREST

In addressing the conference O.
governors, Governor Lister yester-
day urged that a study be made Of
the causes of unrest.
Nothing more sound could be ad-
vocated.
1t is an easy matter to damn ev-
cry one who is today in protest
against the present social system
1t is an easy matter to pass OPP
pressive laws against them. Blu
these methods will not end the un-
rest.
The logical method is to eliminat
the causes of unrest. The causes
usually are unfair working condi-
tions, unemployment, profiJecring.
Honest study of these questions
coupled with honest remedial legis.
!aton, is needed.-Seattle Star Of

war organization, created to meet
a war emergency, founded on
worthy principles, was based on a
worthy pledge of loyalty to the
United States. But even then we
found that it conflicted with the
best interests Of the workers in the
lumber industry. However, for the
sake Of the emergency the workers
were willing to sacrifice their own
interests.
"But the Loyal Legion was con-
uolled by employers. Gen. Brice
Disque asserted that it was a $3.50
organization between the workers
and the employer, but it was not.
1t was a 1926 organization, with the
employer in possession of rs
points"
He ampljfied the statement of
President Short, making it clear
chat in this hybrid organization the
worker had little voice. The Port
land convention showed that to the
satisfaction of all visitors who had
thinking machinery in their noodles.
Instead Of being $3.50 patriotic
society," it was, according to Bro,
Taylor, 1925 organization with the
rs points in possession of the en-
ployer.
The Journal wishes to venture the
prediction that the workers in the
lumber industry will find the Four
LIS a profiteering conspiracy to re-
duce wages and increase working
hours.
The workers will find this true if
they viii take the trouble and slight
cynerse Of investigating. If they
don't they will have vastly more
trouble, more expense, more work
and less money.
Every one of you can just put
that IN his pipe and smoke it!
The Journal does not desire to
lecture you lumber workers, but it
will say that if you wish to show
you loyalty you will adopt the prin-
c'rles expressed in the labor poll
o.ys Of the American and British
governments during the world war.
