employ of Court Dentinck, is reward

passes three hours every morning be-

PATCHING IN RIGHT MANNER
Work Done Properly While Road is
Wet and Followed by Drag is
Superior Plan.

Patching done in the proper manner
when the road is wet, followed by a
road drag, will maintain an old gravel
road surface as good as new until it is
so badly worn that an entire new sur
face is required. The gravel should
never be poorer than that forming the
surface layer of the old road, and es-
pecially should not contain an excess
of clay.

CiviIize and Educate.

Good roads are civilizers and edu-

thing else, they bring good people.
No community that has improved its
roads has ever regretted it. Road
improvement is good investment for
any community.

By calling off all strikes, except
those deemed absolutely imperative,
for six months or longer, and by in
creasing production, the New York
State Federation of Labor believes the
high cost of living problem can be
solved.
This was the plan proposed by Pres
ident James P. Holland of the asso-
eiation by committee appointed for
that purpose. These suggestions are
in line with recent utterances of Pres
ident Wilson.
If the recommendations of the COM
nittee are adopted by the Executive

RETAILUERKS
Hold a Lively and Spirited
Meeting

Retail Clerks Union No. 119, met in
regular session in Trades Council
hall, Monday night. The attendance
was small, owing no doubt to the in
tense heat of the evening. But what
the meeting lacked in numbers it
made up in enthusiasm Much routine
business was transacted Several new
applications were read and Mr.. Den
ham, of the Heyman- Fisher Company
and Mr. Costello, of the NJ w. G.
Star Store, were inflated. 1t is not
just definitely known whether it was
the high temperature Of the room
that did it, but anyhow several heated
arguments arose that caused the mer-
curry to run up TO about 40 degrees.
No harm was done, however; in fact
such arguments are good for an or
ganization-they stimulate interest.
A committee from the Carpenters
Union appeared before the organiza-
ton and requested its cooperation ir

the same loyal support that we gave

apparent than real.

Your committee therefore recon-
mends
First, that organized labor exert
itself to the utmost te increase pro-
duction of essential commodities and
thereby lower the cost to the produc-
er, to enable him to lower the cost to
the consumer. This applies not alone
to the necessaries of life, but to all
manufactured articles which are bar
tered in commerce at home and
abroad. and the production, manufac-
ture and sale of whict supply the in
come from which labor draws its
earnings and employers their profits.
This can only be accomplished by
employers and wage-earners working
together to that end, each casting
aside all striving for temporary ad-
vantage and pulling together in dou-
BILE harness for the general good of all
the people of the United States and
the emancipation Of the world from
the economic troubles which now be

Thoughts Of Today
Mr.. DuIIard on Single Tax.

That the uneducated man is I'M
scientific goes without saying, but
when you find a man with any claim
to education who thinks along I'M
scientific lines his mind is either care
less or crooked.
A Mr.. Dullard spoke in public at
Trenton a few weeks ago about the
single tax, saying that it was con-
fiscatOry and negotiable, and that it
would be oppressive to the small prop
erty owner, whilst letting off the great
wealth pOSSeSSOrS scot free Mr. Dull
lard-I hope Observation-Disclosures not
distinguish between the small prop
erty owner who has bought merely a
vacant lot hoping to sell it for more
than he gave for it, and a small prop
erty owner who has an improved lot
with a house upon it in which he lives.
Try the single tax by this measure
and see if it is oppressive to the lat
ter? AS for the man who possesses
great wealth in something else besides
land how can he utilize his wealth
without exchanging it for land prod
ucts? These land products will have
paid the land tax before he can ac-
quire them. Furthermore, the land
user will charge him profit on the
land tax that he was obliged originally
to pay.

Me-" first sung at children's service
in the church several weeks ago and
repeated by request, was well received.
Mr.. Moody was at the organ for the
professional and accompanied Miss
Kenworthy in his best style.
Maxine Sibley, at the piano, played
wonderfully, giving the songs really
new meaning.
Dorothy BaldamuS was to have had
an important part in the program, but
on q trip with her family was delayed
by auto trouble and failed to arrive in
time
Miss Lucy Reid assisted the children
in the singing and accompanied her
little sister Marjorie when she sang
her solo.
Beautiful peonies and roses from
the Hunicke garden were sent for use
in the entertainment.
The last part of the program was
entitled "The Quest of the Best" AS
it was announced, Hans Walther step
ped to the platform and unfurled a
beautiful white satin banner bearing
the inscription, 1--WE Seek the Best"
Then to the accompaniment of march
music the entire school mounted the
platform again. Then followed short
speaking parts by nearly all of the 40
scholars. All the parts bore on the
subject and were interspersed with
chorus singing, all ending with a beau
tiful chorus entitled Forward, Ever
Forward"
Rev. Guhse made talk announcing
the missionary collection, expressing
his fullest measure of appreciation of
the celebration, and a fine sum was
realized.
