LABOR UNIONS ON TRIAL

''The labor union has it's proper place
in the economic world, but if it is to be
made more of menace than help, it
will have to 60. If it is to be made an
gency for the intimidation of men who
desire to work at legitimate occupations,
it is an obstruction to progress. If it is
to serve as an agency for violence against
men who undertake useful employment,
it is breeder of crime. If it is to be used
as an agency for intimidation of public
officials, either legislative or executive,
it is an enemy of good government.
''The labor unions will be tried, not in
court, but at the bar of public opinion
They will be judged, not by their pre-
tensions, but by their performances.
Judgment will be passed upon them, not
by prejudice, but by sense of Justice.
whenever the people of this country
conclude that labor unions are a menace
to public welfare, they will refuse to buy
goods made in a union shop or bearing
the union label. This should be clearly
understood by labor union leaders, and
they should govern themselves accord
ingly. Tho labor union can live just as
long as the people of the country want it
to live, and no longer"

according to the present program laid

modern battle cruisers, "a destroyers, IL

in 1923 at cost of $25, 600, 600 annually.
England is building two warships where
she built one before, and she is raising
one million men for her standing army
where she formerly had 100, 600, and she
is raising the million by CONSUMPTION in

has usually been monumental but in these
days it is of colossal proportions.

SPEEDY MOTOR BOAT EQUIPPED
WITH CRUISING COMFORTS

It is not uncommon that motor boats
built especially for racing exceed speed
of 40 miles an hour, but the attainment
of that velocity by a gasoline-propelled
cruiser, designed for comfort on long
voyages as well as fast travelling, is a
noteworthy achievement. Such an ac-
complishment is credited to craft of
the latter classification which is described
and illustrated in the November Popular
Mechanics Magazine. The boat is SO feet
long and has a beam measurement of
feet. 1t is equipped with l2-cylinder
aviation-type motor, capable of develop
ing 400 hp., and has double hull which
is described as nom sinkable. Sleeping
accommodations for six persons are pro-
vided in luxuriously upholstered cabin
forward and sheltered cockpit aft, while
there are also kitchen, storeroom, and
toilet on board. During trial the craft
covered IS miles in So minutes, which is
at the rate of 40 SO miles an hour. On
another occasion a speed of 39.45 miles
an hour was maintained for Is miles.

Cold
relief

A common cause of many colds is the
sudden checking of the unconscious
perspiration by exposure to change of
temperature. Colds whether taking the
form of Coryza with sneezing, running
nose, and perhaps sore throat, or with
chilly and feverish symptoms, should
never be neglected in the earliest stages.
Serious illness often results from such
neglect.
It is well to get early to bed. to get
the body we'll warmed, and most i'm
portant to have the bowels move freely.
There is no safer or better remedy to use
at the beginning of cold than 81. F. "

Holly High Curriculum to

PROF. L. d. KLEMMEDSoN
EMPLOYED AS TEACHER.
Course Will Be Inaugurated at

duate of State Agricultural Col
lege-to Have Charge of Athletics.

The school board has arranged
for the inauguration OF an agricul-
tural course in the corriculum OF
Holly Union High school, begin
ming with the fall term. In conso-
nance with this arrangement the
board has employed Mr.. l.. ID.
KlemmedsOn who will begin his
work with the fall term. In addi-
tion to the agricultural course, Mr..
klemmedson will have charge OF
the various science departments as
well as all athletics.
Mr.. klemmedson is u graduate
OF the State Agricultural college at
Fort Collins, where he was NOV
ing spirit in whatever department
of educational work he was identi
fled AS evidence of his activity at
the college he was president of the
student council during his last
year and was coach OF the Aggie
foot ball team during his last two
years.
Mr.. Klemmedson was called to
the officers training camp in one of
the late drafts during the war but
did not get across before the armis-
tice was signed and was early dis
charged and has since been en-
gagged in civilian activities Mr..
klemmedson is not altogether
stranger to the people of Holly and
vicinity, for, during the past four
months he has been doing the test
ing for the Arkansas Valley Cow
Testing association, which has
brought him to Holly frequently
during this time. He is a young
man of impressive earnestness and
enthusiastic in his chosen work of
agriculture and dairying in both of
which departments he has specia-

Besides the regular agricultural
course there will be project work
and demonstrations at the Amity
Model Dairy, north of town and on
adjacent farms, which will make
Mr.. Klemmedsons work thorough
ly practical and a valuable acqui-
sition to the Holly Union High
School course.
The school board is to be com
for the addition of an agri-
cultural course at this time. Holly
is the center of a purely agricul-
tural and stock raising section, and
it is most logical that the school
course here should make provision
for scientific and practical instruc-
ton in the industries upon which
the country depends for it's liveli-
hood. Its inauguration should be
an important and far reaching
event in the future development

HAY MILL OPENS
Local Mill Now Shipping About
Two Cars Per Day.

The Holly Alfalfa Mill opened
the campaign of 1919, Monday morn

fine shape. Since the mill shut
down at the close of last season,
foreman Bert Overfield has had the
entire machinery overhauled and
put in first class shape.
The capacity of the Holly mill is
40 tons of alfalfa meal per day, and
the company is now shipping
about two cars of meal per day to
the eastern market, principally to
Kansas City and st. Louis.
The local mill is paying $3.50 per
ton for hay delivered at the mill
which is said to be considerably
above what is being paid in other
sections where hay is heavier and
more plentiful.
The second cutting of alfalfa in
this section is reported consider

that nearly all the machinery is

when Hollyites and people of this

Mr.. Owens states that a first class
broom maker has been secured to
