RTN ATHER than sit in idleness

| IT M times, when everybody is do- ing their bit for their own beloved coun- try, rip the hem out of your perfectly good little cambric handkerchief and sew it up again"
 This statement isn't original; it comes down to Us from our grandmothers, who lived by this axiom during the civil war. and while we may find 1t difficult to sub ject ourselves to discipline and work. and all that perhaps the lesson of the old world will be born again during this war.
 Socrates is credited with saying that
 those who wish the fewest things are nearest to the gods. If this is true, how many of us have wandered hone lessly far, for there is nothing we ac- custom ourselves to more readily than the possession of things luxurious and beautiful.
 Few of us realize how many luxuries We possess because we call them by their Christian names-"necessities
 Few of us remember how we fared when we lived in houses with no furnace heat; how We got along without the tele- phone; how we didn't have hot water Cor even cold water in pipe), and how we sat before grates with our faces scorcned and our backs frozen. and no wonder, with all this that our forefathers advocated ''early to bed and early to rise' because everybody was so unspeak- ably uncomfortable.

SETS EXAMPLE OF LOYALTY
Organized Labor Has Shown Itself
Ready and Willing to Make Sac
rlfices to Win the War.
nv CHARLES 2. FoRp.

BY CHARLES P. FORD,
Secretary International Brotherhood Of Elec-
tricaf Workers
The loyalty OF the officers and mem
bers Of organized labor to their coun-
try cannot be questioned.
The opportunity my position gives
me to obtain the individual sentiments
Of thousands of members of the or
ganization represent as well as men,
bers Of other organizations and trades,
show clearly that the toiler realizes
the causes which lead up to the pres
ent conflict as well as the Importance
of fighting this war to victorious
end that the light of freedom may shine
on the people Of Europe and the civ
ilized world. 1t is evident from the
ready response of labor to the call of
their country that labor is ready and
willing to sacrifice their all to aid
and assist in this struggle.
The attitude and action Of some
of those who claim to be opponents
Of the cause of labor and humanity
and who are endeavoring to hamper
and harass the government all possible
should not be considered as represent
ing the feeling or sentiments of the
great mass Of organized labor Of this
country.
Naturally this condition gives the POI
litical and social anarchist, and the
advocates Of other creeds and isms,
an opportunity to spread their propa-
ganda. Quite often the reading public
misunderstands the utterances of such
persons as voicing the sentiment Of Or
ganized labor, which Is entirely en-
roneous. Labor's position has been
fully demonstrated by Its willing CO.
operation land labor will continue to
fight to establish better conditions
throughout the entire world.

LABOR DEMANDS NEW LAWS

mier Hearst and members of his cab.
met at the parliament buildings, ac-
cordlng to the Toronto Globe. The
most important We're as follows:
From the brotherhood Of carpenters
petitiOning the government for the OBJ
servance of the prevailing schedule of
wages, hours and other established
working conditions.
To provide for the abolishing Of
property qualifications for aspirants
for municipal honors, as required by
the municipal act.
The stationary firemen requested
that none but qualified and licensed
fremen be permitted to operate steam
boilers and for the proper inspection
Of boilers.
That the government declare all Its
employees in the building trade elig-
ible for compensation,
The licensing Of all journeymen bar
bers and a rigid inspection Of all bar
Der shops to protect the health of the
public.
To enforce the efficiency Of all NOV
ing picture operators and that all the
atrlcal employees be eligible for COM
pensation. IT. (
To have all clothing manufactured
in sanitary workshops and factories
instead of men and women taking
home the clothing to be made up.
No retail clerk, man or woman, to
work more than forty hours q week.
When a house is repapered, all the
old paper and calcimining to be re-
moved, this to safeguard the health Of
the paperhanger and the occupant of
the house.
That stationary engineers shall have
direct representation on boards of IL
cense examiners; that no person be al
lowed to operate a boiler Of more than
ten pounds pressure unless he has an
engineers certificate.
The cabinet ministers were i'm
pressed with the speeches Of the Ia
Dor men, and Premier Hearst assured
the deputation that they need not &c
away feeling that the resolutions
would be put in cold storage.
Regarding the question Of the ages
Of children working In factories, he
said he could not promise them then
what the government would do, but
he would say that something was like
ly to be done.
