MY LOVED ONES.
tBy Catherine Huniley. pupil OF cush'

You took me away
And taught me 10 love you,
But what OF today
With the green sod above youf
stand here alone,
Amidst sorrow and pain,
Never TO see your dear form again.
Your voice so caressing,
Your manner so kind,
The like Of you, Sweetheart
Twill be hard to find.
Alone in this cold world
am broken hearted;
from 81 OF my dear ones
II seems / am parted
AZ night. upward / gaze
To the sky OF bright-blue,
And think Of my old home,
My baby and you.
TO wander through life
The courage doth lie,
IN the hope that I'll meet you all
There in the sky.
Our dear loving Saviour.
So gentle and kind.
With Him, all my treasures
In Heaven I'll lnd.
And then, oh. how happy
Wen be, as with love,
Wen all reunite
In that bright home above.
SUNDAY EVE
(By Lawrence Evart).
On Sunday Eve, man ] know well
Did seek Gods House OF Prayer;
His custom always, Il possible,
For he 1nds sweet comfort there.
He's attended many churches.
This night he chose St. Paul
Ie was told he must go early
n he would get in at all.
So promptly at seven he started,
He was welcomed with warmth and
smile,
And everyone seemed so happy.
He was glad TO be there a while.
they started their service with singing.
They were led by Mr.. Clase.
whose manner and voice were pleasing,
He had such likeable face.
He aroused the spirit Of music.
And how the voices did ring
With the good old songs OF gladness,
He just made everyone sing.
This man then heard their pastor
From the simplest OF texts did preach,
That God is Love"-for always.
And he tried this lesson TO teach.
He seemed so sincere and earnest,
He drew his comparisons well,
His logic was carefully chosen,
His voice was clear as a bell.
At times he was strsngely gentle,
Again 10 a dramatic height.
He arose with strength and vigor,
AS ne shouted ats sin we must light"
He brought tears to the eyes OF many.
Then changed TO laughter and mirth.
He pleaded for hearts TO wide open.
And receive what is given on earth. |
And when he had finished his sermon,
He invited each one to psrtake,
Accept Of God--all his blessings,
Who sacrificed much for our sake.
Now they say the pastors sensational.
That he rants and struts and will rave,
That he jumps all over the altar,
In his efforts Of souls to save
But. somehow, this man ! know well,
Who attended his Church Sunday
night.
Feels It Is just enthusiasm,
In the battle he's trying to light.
And think, perhaps, his opinion,
Is risht. and with him agree;
For this man-in confidence, I'll tell /
you,
Is just--myseli-don't you see2

ALL READY
For the Big Butler County
Fair Next Week
Many Attractions - Running
Races Again to Be Big
Feature

All arrangements are practically
complete for the big Butler County
fair, which opens its gates next Tues
day morning. Secretary NJ. D. Urm-
ston opened the offices of the fair
board in the court house Thursday
morning and his assistants are kept
very busy receiving entries which are
pouring in for all departments. Mr.
Urmston says that there never was
so many entries mailed in the week
before the fair as has been this year.
1t is predicted that all departments
will be filled to overflowing.
The fair this year promises to be
bigger and better than ever before.
All the old time attractions and
amusements will be there. Many
new features have been added to this
years program. Three brass bands
have been engaged to furnish concerts
each day Lieutenant w. G. Diggins
of Chicago, will do many hair raising
aeroplane stunts. He will also take
up passengers at SIS "trip. Anyone
desiring to take advantage of soaring
through the air can do so, but they
had better put in their application
at once, as many have expressed their
intention of taking trip.
The girls baking and sewing con-
tests, as well as the boys jib judging
contests, are attracting the boys and
girls of the county as never before.
The automobile show promises to be
the finest ever seen on the local fair
grounds. This show alone will be
worth going miles to see. The school

burgh to Chicago. Everything is
closed at Youngstown, Gary and South
Chicago and Indiana Harbor are all
but closed, while Pittsburgh and sur
rounding territory are badly crippled.
William z. Foster, secretary of the
strike committee, is the subject of
considerable discussion in and out of
labor circles Mr.. Fosler started out
in life as an advocate of industrial
uniorism and syndicallsm. Indeed back
in 1910 he wrote very clear and
comprehensive treatise on syndical-
ism In 1911 he attended an inter
national labor congress in Switzerland
and crossed swords with James Dun
can, vice president Of the American
Federation of Labor, who knocked
Fosters theories into a cooked hat so
much so that even Foster saw a new
light. Since then he has been an ard
ent supporter of the American Fed

which it stands.
Recently agents for the steel trust
have dug up Fosters pamphlet and

Pittsburg, Pa.-The refusal of
Judge Gary, chairman of the board of
directors of the United States steel
corporation (the trust, to grant a
conference to representatives of his
employees, has precipitated a strike
that is almost nationwide and direct
ly involves half million workers.
Within SO hours after the strike was
called the United States senate unani-
mously passed a resolution to investi-
gate the strike and summonses were
Immediately forwarded to Judge Gary
and John Fitzpatrick, chairman of the
national committee, to organize the
iron and steel workers.
For the past year a score of ma
tional and international unions, act
ing through this committee, have con
dueted an organizing campaign in the
IRON and steel industry. The unionists
have been resisted by the well known
tactics of the trust, but despite a
denial of the right of free speech,
free assemblage and other guarantees,
the workers have flocked to the un-
ions. Recently the committee made
formal request to the trust for CON
ference, that wages and working CON
ditions might be discussed.
Judge Gary declined the request on

workers and halted construction con-

struggle for industrial freedom so
long denied them.
London, England-The British press
gives prominence to the American
steel strike. In an editorial or this
subject, the Daily News says
"The struggle is for the fundamen-
tails of industrial freedom, the right

States is far behind Great Britain in
this respect"

exhibits also promise to be very
interesting feature The stock de-
partments are filling up fast in the
way of entries The farm implement
display will be the finest ever seen
at the fair.
The Art Hall exhibits, always de-
light to the ladies, will take up every
inch of the building. In fact, the di-
rector of this department is at his
wits end as to where to place all those
desiring space. An unusual feature
of this department will be the many
displays made by the local merchants.
Years back almost every merchant
made a display in this department,
but in recent years they have failed
to show the interest formerly taken
in the big county show, bot they prom
ise to make up for it this year and
many viii be represented.
The races as usual will be the big
attraction. The purses offered this
year are attracting the horsemen from
everywhere. Beginning Wednesday,
four big trotting and pacing races
will be run each day. In addition, two
running races will be run Wednesday
and Thursday and one will be run on
Friday The track has been put in
excellent shape and some great speed
can be looked for.
All in all she will be a hummer.
The board will meet Saturday in their
offices at the court house to further
complete the arrangements

ST. Paul is the home office of the

the Foster pamphlets should be mail

at this time. Last week one of the
trust controlled papers printed in its
editorial columns Mr. Duncan's re-
port to the Atlanta convention of the
American Federation of Labor in 1911

ist in Switzerland, but not a word has

is not sincere who admits his mis-

But Mr.. Foster is not the steel

steel barons to recognize labor's claim
