HOW A SCHOOL BANK WORKS
Savings System In Eastern institution

aging Weekly More Than $40.

Twelve years ago New England

the mothers and fathers In his dis

youngsters and himself start school

n HE dear old times of long ago seem far away
and hazy, the good old times we used t9 know,
I before the world went crazy. We trotted to
our divers tasks contented early risers, andput our
savings down in casks, nor fretted over kaisers We
followed then the baseball games, and thrashed them
over nightly, and to the movies took DANES, ser
enc and sweet pleasant sheerful cYcle and no one
had it in for Pete or cussed the name Of Michael
But now our RACES never stop, we're hot beneath
our collars for an hour cease to yawp some other
fellow holers. Each voter packs around brick and
brazen knucks we carry, we take fall from Tom to
Dick. and throw some rocks at Harry. We don't
know why our heads are sore, we don't know why we
are ratified but still we rant and walk the floor as
when the nations battled Oh for the happy golden
days, when we sat round and tWittered, and talked
Of Whisker we could raise, and not heart embitter
ed Oh, for the bygone peaceful nights, When done
with daily labors, we smoked our pipes and flew our
kites like sane and kindly neighbors.

The Wonders Of America
UTAH-"THE PROMISED LAND
By 7. T. MAxEY

aUTAH-"THE PROMISED LAND"
e IRST settled In the summer of 1847
j by Brigham Young and his little
band of Mormons, numbering less than
100 souls, Utah is fast coming into its
own. Utah is 100000 acres larger
than all Of the New England states
combined, and there isn't much, If,
indeed, there is anything-within rea-
son-that the Imagination of man can
conceive or his heart wish for that the
state does not yield or cannot offer.
'Tis said that Utah contains enough
iron ore to rebuild most of the steel
structures in the, country; sufficient
black marble to build column from
the earth ito the moon; salt enough to
supply the world for 60 years. the
greatest copper mine in all the world:
enough coal to supply her population
for 10000 years; clay and sand enough
to make the worlds supply Of brick for
many years; 4,000, 100000 feet of lum-
ber and sandstone and granite in
quantities equal to the rebuilding of
! the majority Of the buildings in the
United States.
Gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc
to the value of $97, ,OOO,O were mined
in Utah during one recent year. Good
ly quantities Of agricultural products
and fruit are also produced.
Utah's climate is neither hot, cold,
dry or wet, but rather happy medium
with touch of salt air added for good
measure. Her fertile valleys remind
one Of Italy, her pointed mountains
hold touch Of Alpine beauty aht
great painters say that her sunsets ar
the most BEAUTIFUL In the world.

SAFETY of 'sUfNION" ATsSTAKE.

THE steel strike has thrown 00000 men out of
n work.
4 The point at issue is the refusal of the steel
company to recognize the union in preference to any
other'honest American workman.
The fight is on for the closed shop whereby
free man in America must join class organizaticn
before he can work and an employer IS denied TIA
right of hiring com petent workman who does not.
belong to such an organization.
This is not fight ON union ideas it is fight for
the preservation of freedom of the Individual in
America.
If by superior arguments all the steel workers
can be induced to join the union there is reason
able grounds for complaint and if the union and the
steel company fail to settle grievances, the union
members have the American privilege of striking.
But when the union says to the steel company
"you must hire no one but members OF our union" is
going to far as it thereby attempts to set aside the
very rights guaranteed by constitution to every
man, woman and child in this nation.
Labor organizations have had the sympathy of.
the public in their endeavOr to better living, working
and wage conditions but these organizations have be-
come drunk on their own power until today it their
slightest demands are not granted they do not hes
itate to eOpardSe the very safety OF the nation to
gain their point. The public has seen the danger in
the threatened railroad strike when country
at war, it has seen it in the shpyard strikes during
the war and in countless other strikes to enforce
bitrary demands during the nations peril. 1t has
seen gIOWlHS WlCIieoScu CilC
workmen in the steel industry reject the Pres
idents request that they withhold action until after
the conference called to assemble in Washington
early in October to try and establish basis OF
ciliation for all industrial disputes.
The nation as a whole is face to face with deny
ing the right of working, to man who does not be-
long to some particular union without demanding
that an employer hire none but certain specified
union members it is time this class Of unions were
eliminated else they will destroy the Very foundation
principles Of this government
If a man can be forced to join certain union or
class organization before an EMPLOYER is allowed to

RED CROSS CAMPAIGN OPENS
NOVEMBER FIRST

On November 1st the campaign for
the Third Red Cross Roll Call opens
with Red Cross Sunday, The Roll
Call Manager in the Pacific Division
announces a thorough preliminary or
ganizatjon throughout the three states
that is expected to assist materially
in bringing in the desired unanimous
Red Cross Membership in every Chap
ter community.
Following this preparation to Sc
cure the unanimous membership the
actual Chapter organization will con-
duct the solicitation in the several
communities represented by Chapters,
branches and auxiliaries.
Speakers from overseas both men
and women who have seen active SER
vice in either the army or American
Red Cross have volunteered to help
"put it over" and will speak at both
public and organization meetings
when called upon.
With hearty cooperation from the
heads of organized bodies including
churches lodges, labor organizations,
women's clubs and libraries the Paci-
fic Division has received the names of
working committees from representa-
tive communities in the three states.
Such evidence of interest from groups
of citizens is the best kind of en-
couragement to the ambition for en-
rollment of every man and woman
during the roll call period which
ends November II, the first anniver-
sary of Armistice Day.
