Gentle Annie

Come. gentle Spring, ethereal
mildness, come! While winter
lasts this life is pretty bum.
We look ahead with yearning
and with signs TO vernal days
and cloudless azure skies. As
some worn pilgrim, dashed by
wind and sleet, wounded by
thorns and dying on his feet,
beholdS the inn. with windows
all agloW. SO VVw we spring,
from out our drifts OF snow.
Winter is fierce ; its methods all
are wrong: winters frost, it
sticks around too long; if it
would come and last a week OF
two then chase itself to fields
and pastures new, we could en-
dure, with Spartan fortitude, all
it might spring i'll climate rough
and rude. But as a guest old
Winter has no style he brings
his grips and comes to stay a
while: month after month he
camps around the place, till he
becomes a burden and disgrace.
Nainly we hint that he should
pull his freight; still he remains,
immovable as fate. Long
weary weeks must pass before
he goes, taking his frost and
sample lire of SHOWS; then
cometh Spring, with all her
roses red, and to that time we
yearning look ahead.

WAGES NOT Only FACTOR.
Frank 7. Miller Discusses Causes Of
Disturbances in Building Industry.

Disturbances in the building indus
tries during the past few years have
been due less to questions among the
workers of wages and shorter hours
than of necessity for readjustments
because of labor-saving machinery,
according to Frank t. Miller. director
of the newly created division of public
works and construction development.
Dir. Miller said today that as new
devices are invented and put on the
market for developing cheaper and
better methods of making materials
used in building. labor troubles arise.
Less than 10 per cent of the disturb
ances which have occurred during the
/ past few years have been occasioned
| by contests for wages, he declared.
