He added that MT. Schwab was an exceptionally hard man to deal with but he believed he was be- ginning to feel the effects of fighting Organized Labor. The speaker referred to the arrest of one of Schwab's en- ployees for a misdemeanor which occurred about a year ago and added that no impression should be gained that the union was countenanc1ng any violence and none for which the organ ization could be held responsible was occurring. He asked for the support of the allied organizations.
 Organizer McCue also referred to the strike at Morris & Co.'S Bridgeport shop. Some of that concerns goods are on sale in New Haven.
 s. J. Hugo's shop, he reported, still refused to sign an agreement with the union. Three members of the organiza- tion were not long ago laid off, he said on the ground of lack of business.

Dear Daddykins

Its almost like a story book. Everything Is in
swing Tor the great event-the exit outwardly Of little
Maybelle, the plantation girl, and the entrance of Miss
Maybelle Merrimac, most beautiful of city daughters,
Ot course you won't believe it, dear, but clothes 90
mighty far toward making the woman-and clothes
bought from Goldsmith & Sons-well, even Aunt
Maria says I'm almost beautiful.
Maybe had better go back and begin some place
near the middle OF things so you won't get the ending
before you scan something of the preface. 1t all hap
pened like this, daddy-o'mine. Early this morning. a.
soon as Alonzo, the head waiter at the Gayoso, said
the stores were open, | sailed forth to the end of my
rainboW-the shop of J. Goldsmith & Sons.
1t was scarcely 9 o'clock, but already crowds were
upon the streets and more than fifty other girls drifted
through Goldsmith's entrance. Probably they, too.
were bent on being everlastingly pretty.
Honey, | wish you could see the Goldsmith blouses,
they are perfectly exquisite, and the colors, victory blue,
the national French shade, you know, and our old artil-
lery red are the most popular. | bought several of
both, dear, and each one of the garments had the dear
est little beaded trimmings. Everything is beaded this
year, which will please you Pm sure, you regular old
Indianish daddy.
1t was in the millinery department, honey, that l
liked to have ~disgraced Our good old Merrimac family.
1t was a hat, dear, that did ia cute little tailored
model of the most stylish make. Somehow when ] saw
the thing, well l just up and poked by head through
the brim and shouted, Charge it to papa"
1t created an awful stew, d~addykins, but pretty
soon a nice looking man came from some place and told
me to get just as many as | pleased. 1t was awful nice
of him, daddy, and you, also, cause it's you really who
pays the bill.
Speaking of bills, dear, we'll I'm sure they-that is
mine-aren't going to be much, things being cheaper
this year than last and b%etter-ever so much better.
