SCHWAB STATES
 LABOR IS GOING TO RULE WORLD

New York, Jan. 26-That we are at the threshold of a new social era in which labor will assume dominance throughout thew orld is the predic- tion of Charles M. Schwab president of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation.
 Schwab delivered an address on the war situation at the eighth an- nuaI dinner of the alumni of Cram mar School No. 40 at the Grand Hotel this week and the opinion was given that this nation would be amply re- paid for the hardships of the war, while both commercially and socially great things are in store for us.
 Respecting this nations conduct of the war MT. Schwab said that while he believed in honest comment he was opposed to criticism of the na- tion's policies. While the govern ment may have made mistakes, who, under similar circumstances, would not have made as many, he asked. MT. Schwab also discussed the great l work of the steel corporation, which, he said, has grown enormously in the last year. He said that the Secretary l of the Navy had asked the Bethlehem | Steel Corporation for an enormous number of torpedo boat destroyers | upon the construction of which the i corporation is now engaged, and that 1 within a period of IS months the | United States would have more o1 these vessels in service than the com l bined nayies of the world.
 "We are facing a social situation ' | he said which we should be keen1y alive to a situation which is going tc come at the close of the war, 8 ] "social renaissance'' of the whole world. Call it socialism, social revo- i lution, Bolshevikism, or what you will it is a levelling process and means that the workman without property who labors with his hands
 is going to be the man who vii dominate the world
 Ut is going to be a great hardship to the owners of property, but like al revolutionary movements it will prob ably work good. The sooner we real ize this the better it will be fol America. We must not fight thii 1 movement, but we must educate it
 We must go among the people of tht
 working classes and mingle witt
 them and learn their felings an( | thoughts"

LIBERTY BONDS BEST INVESTMENT
 IN THE WORLD

The Liberty Loan Committee of New England writes us that patriotic citizens who bought the first and sec end Liberty bonds are being ap- preached by agents who try to induce them to exchange their Liberty Bonds for securities of doubtful value. It is hoped that all such offers will be disregarded. Liberty Bonds are the best investment in the world, and should be kept. In case it becomes imperative to sell Liberty Bond there can be no objection, but it should be sold through a reputable broker. It should not be exchanged for other securities, nor for merchan- disc.

PATRIOTIC WOMAN OF THE MOUNTAINS
 DOING HER BIT

CLEARFIELD, Pa, May 8. - Mrs. Charles F. Sloppy lives in the heart of the Alleghenies. and spends the lonely days of Winter reading the newspapers and trapping the fur bearing animals which may still be found in the fastness of the forest. She has been deeply interested in the progress of the war, as are all the mountain people of Central Penn sylvania, and when the news of the Third Liberty Loan reached her humble home, she decided to lend to the Government such money as she had accumulated from her winters work.
 So one morning she walked l5 miles into Clearfeld, and entering d bank asked for eleven $100 Liberty Bonds. These, she explained as the receipt was being made out, each rep resented 20 skunk skins. She eX- pressed her sincere regret that she did not have the hide of the Kaiser to sell with those of the other skunks."
 Mrs. Sloppy has 60 traps scat tered throughout the mountains and she is usually rewarded with pelts enough to make her daily round of the traps well worth while. But her captives are not always skunks Oc- casionally she gets mink for which | the traders cEcerfully pay her $l3 and frequently weasel which is almost as valuable.
 MT. Sloppy is ginsang farmer and he too, has been able to buy Liberty Bonds, to the value of $l, 900. But he earned every cent of il from his last seasons digging"

DRILLING COMPANY OF MORE
THAN 100 CADETS.
INDOORS DURING WINTER
Miss Frances Nolen to Instruct Girls
in Physical Exercises this Term
Pupils Show Aptness for the Train
ing.

More than 100 high school boys and
as many girls began military training
and calisthenics Tuesday at the Co
lumbia High School with Capt Harry
Turner in charge Of the boys and Miss
Frances Nolen in charge Of the girls.
Twice week, on Tuesdays and
Fridays, during the remainder of the
session one hour each morning will
be given TO this training Immediately
after the morning chapel exercises.
During the cold weather the drilling
will be held in the recreation rooms
but when the weather becomes favor.
able the exercise will be in the open
air on the athletic field.
The high school was fortunate in
having among its pupils several boys
who have attended military schools or
had other military training, so such
boys were put in charge of awkward
squads this morning under the super
vision of Capt. Turner and all of the
pupils displayed an aptness for the
drilling that indicates quickly
rounded company that will make as
good a showing as possible without
guns.
The calisthenics for the girls will
develope them physically and better
prepare them for their mental exer.
cises and home duties.
