MARRIED in BATHING SUITS
Groom Considerable Expense In
Wedding Finery.

The funniest wedding I ever saw
wRs when camping last summer. writes
correspondent of the Chicago Trib-
une. A girl friend and her father
were there and she met n young man
whom she grew fond of in short
time. One night he asked her father
for her hand. but father objected be-
cause of the short acquaintance. The
next morning the couple met and
planned to elope.. but somehow father
~got WISE" so this was spoiled. When
swimming that afternoon they met
again and the girl happened to men
tion that her father had gone to the
village and would not return until eve
ming. The boy said: This Is our
time" A minister was on the shore
and they went TO him and asked to be
married at once. The ceremony was
performed on the beach. the couple
attired in their bathing suits.

Partners In Life's Work.

At this time several aspects of the
labor question demand consideration.
We need to emphasize the meaning and
necessity of labor-to show that It is
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 a 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 Just
and brotherly relations---Exchange.

ADVANCE MUST BE GENERAL
Anarchy in Russia Proves That Labor
and Rest Of Society Must Go
Forward Together.

The future. of labor lies in stabilIzins
democracy. In that alone is progress.
One of the great problems of peace is
to erect an Industrial democracy upon
the solid foundations of political de-
mocracy. That can come If labor is
patient and prudent and self-control-
led. but 1t can never be brought about
through the application of theories of
contiscation or class war.
Autocracy has failed, and failed
criminally. but the failure of bolshev-
ism is no less complete, even though
the consequences have been restricted
to single country. There is no hope
for the world In either. The fate of
Russia proves that labor must go for
ward with the rest of society. 1t can
not advance alone. 1t cannot take
everything and give nothing. If it ever
tries. 1t will wantonly waste most Of
the substantial fruits of the war.

II Has Happened Before.

AS his relatives and friends are
aware. George Wharton Pepper is
nonsmoker.
Not long ago Mr.. Pepper was about
to entertain some distinguished guests
whom he delighted to honor.
His first move in the direction of
their entertainment was TO procure
and send to the house some particu-
larly choice Havana cigars, which
''set him back" to the tune of so
cents each But it seems the cigars
arrived before ii was made known at
home that the guests were expected
Tint evening Mrs. Pepper said to
her husband: Some cigars came for
you today-evidently n gift from some
one. Knowing you didn't smoke,
gave them to men who were working
in the house. se."-Philadelphia Ledger.

gained In confident vision for the fu-
ture.
Every national and international,
every local union affiliated to the
American Federation of Labor, has
made definite progress in securing for
Its members greater advantages In
those things which are fundamental Of
betterment In all relations Of life. In
some organizations the success has
been phenomenal.
Taking the labor movement as a
whole there has been greater progress
in securing the shorter workday than
in any other similar period of time.
The meaning of these victories can be
interpreted only In the light of full
understanding of the meaning of the
shorter day. The shorter workday is
something more than an economic de-
mand. 1t is demand for opportunity
for rest, recuperation and develop
ment; things which make life more
than mere mechanical drudgery.

If there is not a right on the part

there ought not to be a right on the

This changed public opinion has been

education and organization, but 1t has
been quickened the past two years be-
cause of organized labor's prompt ac-
ceptance of autocracy's challenge
against democratic ideals.
Organized labor has not depended
upon words to prove its patriotism. Its
whole-hearted support of the govern
ment in the crisis of war should be
sufficient answer to any query on this
subject. This support was of the kind
that BELTS men and women imbued
with our republics ideals, and who
realize that when government that is
founded on these ideals falls the loss
is an individual one for every Ameri-
can citizen worthy of the name.
Organized labor distinguishes be-
tween a government that rests on the
whim of one man or a small group of
men and government of, by and for
the people.
Our 1919 Labor day celebration fea-
lures this difference between the two
systems of government which recently
struggled for mastery. The thought
behind these systems is older than any
nation. In truth. nations are but an in
cident. but process, In this struggle
of human liberty and advancement
versus the ancient theory of govern
ment SO well illustrated by German
junkerdom.
Organized labor is not peace move
ment. While we long for the day OF
Industrial concord. when disputes be
tween capitalists and laborers will not
longer feature our industrial life. we
refuse to paralyze our movement by
surrendering the right to strike against
wrong when other methods fail.

Fire Menaces New Residence

The fine new home of Mr.. and Mrs
W. H. Madden, nearly completed on
upper Main street, had narrow es-
cape from fire Sunday morning.
When F. A. DeClark was looking after
the irrigating of his garden, which adj
JOINS the Madden yard. he smelled
smoke of burning cloth and noticed a
bit of smoke at the window. Going
into the house he discovered pile of
oil and paint saturated rags smoking
on the floor of the bedroom, where
they had been left by the workmen.
The fire was easily extinguished and
but little damage done, hole in the
floor and badly smoked walls of this
room being the extent. 1t was indeed
a close call, and a timely discovery
by Neighbor DeClark. The Madden
family expect to occupy the new home
