SELECTS WHITE S0X TO
CAPTURE CHAMPIONSHIP

"The White Sox will win the
pennant in the American league"
said Connie Mack, manager Of
the Athletics. 'The Chicago
players, collectively, are a smart
crew, and with Cicotte pitching
championship ball since the sea-
son started, and with some of
the other twirlers working in
championship form, I do not see
where New York or Cleveland
will be able to beat Kid Gleason
to the flag" Mack said he looked
forward to seeing the Giants bat
tie the White Sox for the world
championship this fall.

capacity with pinch hitting duties.

By an odd coincidence, Sci
bold, the young Athletic pitcher,
has the same name as old Socks
Seybold, the hard-hitting right
fielder of the Athletic champions
of 1902 and 1905. Old Sock is
Ralph Seybold and the young
fingers name also is Ralph.

UNDERPAID
Are Street Car Men, Says Chair.
man Taft.

In the course of hearing on a
street railway case, Joint Chairman
Taft of the national war labor board
said:
"Mr Walsh and l have had great
deal of experience in fixing these
wages, and while, of course, we have
made mistakes in the past we are
cnly too glad to admit it. If possible
we fix too low rate or too high a
rate-too high for the conditions of
the company and too low for the real
exigencies under which the men have
worked-there is this to be said, that
the street railway men ought to real
ize that; but think we have the right
to say that we have found them un-
derpaid everywhere. We found that
they had been underpaid by reason
of situation in the public service
companies that had pressed them down
tc something that was quite unjust,
ard the general range of our rulings
has been to bring them up, quite be-
yond, probably, what they would have
been had our board not been insti-
tuted and that has brought about a
financial situation in the companies
that is deplorable, but that does not
make US feel that we are at all de-
parting from equity in what we have
dcne in the raising of these wages,
for the reason that the low wages for
the men have been the result of an
unsound economical policy which the
street railways have got to reform or
go to the wall"

Prices were already high from war
influences. The Government had to
spend money and do it quickly. But
the waste of money, if it was waste,
produced an end of war which saved
the lives of 100000 soldiers who would
have found graves in France if the
war had lasted another six nfonths.
Do you call that waste?

Which is an acknowledgement that,

in trouble and not give thanks when
delivered from the trouble; that in
business you would burn up your
energy in making money and then
leave rolls of bills lying in your desks

UNION METHODS
Are Now Being Applied By
Actors.

New York.-A strike of severa
hundred actors and actresses has tied
up a score Of large theatres in this
city because of the reactionary atti-
tude Of the managers association. The
actors movement is directed by NJ
Actors Equity association, Francis
Wilson president. The best known
players in America are involved and
the walkout has extended to the
chorus girls, who have organized and
elected Marie Dressler president. The
choristers say they are paid $25 anJ
$50 a week and must pay for their
stage shoes, stockings and tights.
Pickets are maintained in reeullc
trade union style by the strikers, who
have been arrested and enjoined and
are now sued for damages that w,,I
run into six figures.
George Cohan, one of the mana
gers, declared in the public press that
he would lose every dollar before he
will do business with the actors or
ganization. Trade unionists who are
aiding the players show that this is
"old stuff" and has been used Sc
often by employers of industrial
workers that it has lost it's scare
qualities.
The spirit of the actors is shown
in talk by Ethel Barrymore, who
addressed them. She said:
II don't know how to make a speech.
l just came to sell you that l am with
you; am more than with you. Don't
be discouraged. Stick. Stick. That's
ALL"

At this time several aspects OF the
labor question demand consideration.
We need to emphasize the meaning and
necessity of labor-to show that 1t ia
both law and means of service. We
need to emphasize the difference be-
tween productive labor that performs a
service and makes wealth, and unpro-
ductive labor that wins wealth away
from others and lives upon their toll.
We need to emphasize the fact that In
dustry is partnership, and so 1t de-
mands the participation OF all parties
as partners In the enterprises. We
need to realize that the relations In In
dustry are human relations, and so
1t is necessary that the relations OF
men with one another should be tust
and brotherly MISUNDERSTANDING.

Labor's demonstration of last Mon
day was without doubt the greatest in
the city's history. There were more
men in ilne, more enthusiasm and
more industrial spirit displayed than
ever before
Organized labor can well be proud of
it's 1919 LABOR Day celebration and the
committee which had charge of the ar
rangements for the big event is de-
serving of much praise. The weather
was such as to Aeave no possible ex-
cuse for any union man failing to
take part in the parade, consequently
the turnout was unusually large, in
fact larger than ever before, every
local union being represented in great
numbers.
Promptly at o'clock the command
was given and the big parade twelve
city block long, began moving over the
principle streets of the city. AS the
big procession moved its way along to
the fairgrounds, many words of favor
able comment were heard from the
thousands Of onlookers who lined the
streets all along the line of march on
the sturdy and splendid appearance of
the local toilers. Many of the organi-
zation members wore special uniforms
that were natty and which added much
to the appearance of the parade.
The strength of organized labor in
Hamilton was clearly demonstrated in
this big parade. It is estimated that

Mr.. Owl was caught. He knew that
since Mr.. Fox and Mr.. Crow were
very good friends, that Mr.. Fox had
told that he had not bought any notes.
He was shamed by his unpatriotic
spirit. Big beads Of sweat broke out
on his forehead. He hung his head
in shame.
OF course, Mr.. Crow saw that Mr.
Owl felt very bad about not buying
notes, and felt sorry for him.
Cheer up. Mr.. Owl, it isn't too late
yet. You can still invest some OF your
thousands of dollars in VICTORY LIB
ERTY NOTES"

Then I'll do it today"
Mr.. Crow and Mr. Owl walked down
the lane, arm in arm, both very happy.
And after that, Mr.. Owl was the most
patriotic fellow In Bramblebriar
Colony.
