UNION NO iC5"
was right we would pay them in accordance
y with their earning capacity but we will not
agree to pay every driver the same wages, ir-
respective of his earning capacity. Our propo-
sition to our men practically that they
should set their own wages based on the eff
cheney of their own efforts, instead of the de-
mands made upon US to pay them overtime at
high rate, when we have no means of know
ing how much of their overtime is willfully
contracted Perhaps some of the readers of
this article have already seen men on our
wagons killing time"
AS regards the Hahn Coal Co., we under
stand that they have two men,, each of whom
owns his own truck and we understand they
have not joined any union. Henrys Delivery
has two trucks, one of which he drives himself
Brown has one, which he drives himself Leedy
has two and drives himself, and Hooe has one
which he drives himself.
In conclusion we would state that the
Springer Transfer Co. are responsible people
known to you all, and the facts stated in this
article are facts that can be substantiated,
whereas the article quoted above is full of mis-
leading statements published with the view of
creating adverse sentiment to this company,
irrespective of the truth.

on Saturday the 18th, feel that it is
and proper to again through the col
unns OF the Sentinel render thanks to
the various organizations which were
so largely responsible for the wonder
full time. IT seemed that nothing was
left undone to show their pride in the
part which their boys played in the
World War.
; However, in the response which l
was called upon to give to the learn
ed and interesting discourse by DIR.
Mente at the presentation of the beau
tiful bronze memorial tablet, l might
have mentioned many important facts
concerning the service of the soldiers
from Spencer which the boys them
selves are too modest to mention.
From records and accounts with
which l came in contact, of the opera
tions of certain Infantry Divisions end
the various Staff Corps departments,
Engineers, Signal Corps, Quartermas-
ter and Medical, not to forget the
famous u. S. Marines-and the little
detachment from Spencer represented
them ALL can speak automatically of
the high class Of service which these
men rendered in doing their part of
the work which in the natural course
of operations fell to them to do. And
some of our boys are entitled to and
do wear citations from General Head
quarters of the A. E. F. for this ser
vice, be he Private, Corporal. Ser
geant or what not.
Then there are the fellows who
served at home though willing and
anxious to go over. We all know the
Importance of backing up at home
the armies over seas. Their service
entities them to the highest recogni-
tion.
Some of these men both overseas
and in the U.i S. A. received part of
the credit due them by winning pro-
motion, but others deserving promo
tion, through no fault of their own,
did not receive it. At least two
others We're in Officers Training
Schools in the U. S. A. preparing for
commissions when the armistice was
signed.
This then is the point. No matter
what rank or grade the soldier-now
a civilian-held in the service, he is
entitled to share equally with any
other for his part in the victory over
Germany. As the Nations entry into
the war was not for national aggran-
dizement so the individuals part was
not for personal glorifcation.
am sure each of the soldiers of the
World War and the veterans of the
other wars as we'll who were with us
will remember this day of celebration
Especially the feed) with only the
kindliest of feeling.
Sincerely,
7. D. AUBLE.
