so-called class against all other

Reeoonition of the Individual.

Recognition of the unions means
failure to recognize the individual.
1t was this insistence on the union at
the expense Of the individual that
broke up the industrial conference at
Washington. in the opinion of Henry
B. Endicott. The labor group re-
fused to recognize the right of any
wage Garner to refrain from joining
any organization or to deal directly
with his employer if be SO chooses"
and the capital group refused to deny
IL.
President Wilson's statement on
the coal strike asserted that the ac-
ton of the mine workers union WAS
taken without any vote upon the
specific proposition by the individual
members"
1t Is characteristic Of up-to- date
strikes that they are conceived,
pfopagated and pulled off without
the formality Of a referendum Of the
workers. A band Of organizers. agi-
tators, labor politicians or half baked
economists sees chance to advance
themselves or their theories and
works up a following sufficiently
large and irresponsible to cause all
the trouble necessary to bring the or
sanizers into prominence. The re-
cent British coal strike was engi-
neered by labor politicians who
thought they saw a chance to seize
the government. Several groups of
miners were amazed when they saw
the strike orders posted, as they were
already satisfied with their working
conditions and their pay. but as
members of the union they were
obliged to walk out.
In the Declaration Of Independence
are some we'll known words stating
that men have certain inalienable
rights and that among them are
Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of
Happiness" The United States is
made up Of individuals who.
theoretically At least. glory in their
liberty and proclaim it to the other
nations of earth. The labor unions
are also made up of individuals

Origin Of Halloween
New York Post

The origin Of Halloween dates
back to a period long before the
Christian era.- History shows its cri
gin as being derivative of the ritua
of a clan of heathens called Druid.
who scattered over parts of England
Germany and France and taught
their stsanse religion to the inhabi
tants thereof
The celebration Of their religious
practices was more or less elaborated
by the use of fire, and ina asmuch al
the kindling of fires was then NOR,

wonder and suspicion and gradual,
grew into a belief that it was no
alone wonderful. but smacked of the

shouts in honor of their god.
AS the ceremony came to a close
each clansman extracted a burning
ember from the fire, and hurried t.
his home. There he extinguished the
flre. and with the burning embe,
from the altar he started a new fire
as a personal Offering for protection
against evil spirits in the coming
year.
The Druids believed that on the
