changed her tactics and had earnest,
sisterly talks that sometimes ended
in extracting a SIS bill from Larry
or Beth, but more times in an angry
argument. She had been obliged
to draw from time to time on her
private savings account, accumulat-
ed by hard work and thrift. Some
times when she looked back to those
independent days of $50 a week,
with many a pleasant evening of
and no money wranglines, she felt
like DESERVING her post and leaving
them all to their own devices. True,
at first Larry or Beth did relieve her
for an evening now and then, but
after a very short time they were

sylvania Railroad Company, with
headquarters at Jamesburg, met in q
very enthusiastic meeting at Lange's
Hall, on Sunday afternoon and list
ened for several hours to represen-
tatives of the American Federation
of Labor, tell of the benefits to be de-
rived from organization.
After listening to the several speak
ers the members decided to affiliate
themselves with the labor organization
and over a score signed the entrance
blanks and a permanent organization
Will be effected at a ~SubSequers meet
ing to be held on Sunday, March %,
at Lange's Hall. Nearly every de-
partment of the railroad service was
represented at the meeting that at
tracted close to sixty railroad en-
ployes.
The main speaker was Anthony
SPAR, of Trenton, a representative
of the United Brotherhood of Main
tenance of Way Employees and Shop
Laborers, affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor. He gave the
men the greatest encouragement in his
remarks. He reviewed the struggles OF
the employees of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company to become organi-
zed.
Speaking for many thousands OF
employees of the railroad company Mr..
SPAR said that they were a unit for
the government to retain the control
OF the roads as it was not the rail-
road men who had given them recog-
milton, better working conditions and
representative on boards who were
}ttling the grievances. Mr.. Spair al
10 talked in English n he aroused
enthusiasm by his words of encour-
agemeIN.
John ReJnle, president of the Mer-
Ger county Central Labor Union and
district agent of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor gave his experiences
as a union workmen for twenty years
praised Samuel Gompers for the
work he has accomplished. He took
issue with a recent speech made by
Governor Edge in which he is charged
with saying that the government i!
doing too much for the people. Al
the government is the people the.
could not do too much for themselves
he claimed.
Frank J. S~chnorbus, of the Pennsyl
Sania Local and Federal Railwa,
Workers spoke at length on the bene
fits to be gained by organization anC
at the conclusion the delegates lef
the room to allow the men to take III
the question of organization and with
in a few minutes the men present sig
nified almost as n unit to become af
fliated with the national body.
