In n strike OF this kind the unions

Therefore they are slipping back. be-

PITTSBURGH. Sept. SOTO all
appearances the steel workers strike
has settled down TO one OF endurance,
yesterdays efforts by each side to
make breach in the ranks OF the
other having failed to cause a ser
lous break. The steel companies are
now prepared. according to some OF
the officials, to begin a wearing down
process to end the strike.
Strike leaders arc on their guard
against this method Of attack and
to-day expressed confidence that the
ranks Of the strikers would not only
remain solid, but would be increased.
Without single exception steel
companies that made public reports
OF operations to-day claimed men
were steadily returning to work, They
asserted they were coming back in
small numbers and were being placed
on jobs without any confusion. T)n-
mage, 1t was also claimed, was

FUNERAL DIRECTORS.
Character, Strength and Integrity
BY DR. BERTHoLD A. BAER


Near the City of Neenagh in the State of Wisconsin
point of land separating the Fox River from Lake
Winnebago, stood an old giant elm commonly called
"the old council tree"
1t under its spreading branches that the chiefs
of every tribe gathered to hold their council of and
later, made treaties with the white men.
Tradition tells that treaties made under "the old
council tree" were held to be nviolate, never being
broken, and the huge old elm became known thru the
great Northwest an emblem of character strength
and integrity.
! was reminded Of this story when recently was
introduced to Mrs. A after a funeral service at
The Funeral Church, Broadway and Seth Street.
81 have known Mr.. Campbell, the founder-propretor
of this Institution, for than twenty-five years
please, do not ask me how old ] am" she added,
smilingly.
Il have seen his place grow from small institution
on Twenty-third Street from where my grandmother
buried to the splendid edfice at Broadway and
66th Street. from where my dear mother carried 10
her last resting place.
And when my call shall come, too shall be buried

All Big Battles OF War

An eastern paper prints on its front
page in recent issue letter from
Private Ned p. johnson, former Sa-
lem boy, who served with the 5th Mar
ines in five of the great battles in
France. Speaking of his trip across
the Atlantic with The great squadron,
he tells of an exciting battle with sew
eral German submarines which lastei
foN45 minutes and d9resulted in sending
two of the "iron fish" to the bottom,
outside the harbor,. of st. Nazairs,
France. 1t was his first opportunity %
see part Of the us. navy in action,
and the way the boys stood by the
five-inch guns and hit targets as small
as a wash-tub was well worth seeing.
After landing from the transport Hen
derson they spent about six weeks at
the seaport and then were sent to Bor-
deaux, where his company was kept On
police duty for two months. They were
then sent to training camp for some
weeks of intensive training, and after
ward sent to the Verdun front where
everything was quiet except for a lit
tie shell fire and few trench raids.
He goes on to say: 'sThen we were
hustled off to ChateauT Thierry to stop
the Huns on their way to Paris and the
second sub division did it. 1t was sure
a dandy fight, and it was. there got
wounded. Since thet we have been on
the move all the time, having taken
part in the battles of So,ssans, 81
Mihiel, Champagne and at the Argon

American expeditionary forces have
been in and that IS enough for me. Now
since the finish of things am anxious
to get home as soon as 7 can and 60
to work, but don't know wheE it will
be. Forgot to tell you that ] have beer
in the hospital with bronchitis, but am
