The Ship Yards Strike.

Seen from this distance the strike Of the
ship yards workers ON the Pacific coast seems
foolish, to say the least. These men have been
getting good pay, even considering the high
prices of the things they have to buy. Surely
it doesn't cost much more to live in the coast
states than it does here and dollar an hour
for minimum wage in any industry in Rock
Island would be manffestIy out of proportion
and unfair to- the great body Of men and women
who earn their living in other vocaions. No
body begTudges workers good wages for honest
competent service, but it is not right for any
organized body to Try to monopolize all the
prosperity simply because It has the power
to do So
The worst feature is that such strike
as that on the coast injuries the whole
union labor movement 1t is particularly true
in the case Of the ship yards workers because
they are working for the government, and if
the industry fails to pay out the deficit must
be paid out Of the public treasury.

June 24-Last week I caught a
liberty-a perfect forty three, and
went to spend it with some cliff
dwelling friends of mine who lived
on the sixth and top floor Of one OF
those famous New York struggle
ups. Before showing off there was
some slight misunderstanding be-
tween the inspecting officer and
myself relative to the exact color
of my whites.
Fall out, there he said TO me
/ You can't go cut on liberty in

But these, sir" I responded
huskily. are not blues; they're

I did so.

Pelham bungalows had completely

I claimed the roof as their own dur

horror | leaped TO the other side
OF the clothes line and endeavored
to conceal myself behind an old
lady'S petticOat or a lady's old pet
Jicoat or something of that nature.

couple OF thrift stamps | might be

olden days it was quite customary
for young gentlemen and elderly
stout ones like yourself, for in

Brad's Bit O. Verse
Pluck Wins

We talk about fortune. we 20 by
lie signs, We are always complain
ing OF luck; but the thing that we
need is 10 cut out the whines, and
develop a little more pluck. The
stars in their courses may fight on
our side, and tho fates may kyoodle
and grin; we may follow the path
where bright promises guide; but
we'll have to have pluck if we win.
Oh, pluck is the thing that makes
Victory sure, that shows us the way
to the goal, the thing that sustains
Us and makes us endure when
around US the storm pillows rotA,
Though days may be gloomy and
nights may be long and clouds may
hang heavy and low, pluck tells US
to hustle, and MARBLE a song and
to boost and 10 help as we go. /.
ETings a bright tinge 10 the dreari-
est skies, 1t drives away darkness
and fear. il shows us the pathway
and points to the prize and gives US
our hope and our cheer. We talk
CT our destiny brilliant and high.
We invite the dear fates to come in,
We expect to make good in the
sweet by and by-but we'll have to
nave pluck IL we win.
