local unions for the first time since
the last convention" The Record
knows this to be false.
There are no unions affiliated
with the State Federation to whose
attention the doings of its Execu-
tive Committee have not been
brought continually since the last
convention. The Record, however,
has not considered it worth while
to give publicity to the doings of
Federation officials. but has sup
pressed Federation news and snub
bed the Federation officers, not
withstanding many of its subscrib-
ers have looked over its columns for
news other than propaganda for the
upbuilding of the Russian soviet re-
public.
The Union Record has frequently
criticised the kept press" for
felsehood and suppression of news
relating to union affairs and yet
it has itself been guilty of the same
tactics. 1t has maintained an
attitude of contempt for small
union weeklies, just the same as the
kept press"
But
The Union Record has not hest
tated to send its agents into towns
to solicit aid from unions affiliated
with the State and International
Federations of Labor, with the
promise that it would give ALL the
union news.
In fact, the Record is more in
terested in who pays the bill' for
its own support. 1t is hereby in
formed that a few of the largest
unions in the state have failed to
pay their dues, making it necessary
for the Federation to curtail its
necessary expenses, and that fail
ure to pay dues is largely charge
able to the fact that the Record has
failed to keep it's readers informed
on Federation matters.
The Records sins of omission
have now been supplemented by un-
true statements regarding the Fed
Grafton, coupled with sneers at an
organization with which it is not
in sympathy.
When the time approached for
the election of delegates to the
State Federation of Labor the Rec
ord discovered that there is such
body and advised its readers to
get busy and send full delegation
to the Convention. This the other
labor papers in the State do every
year. but not for the same reason
which actuated the Union Record.
The Seattle Union Record is the or
gan of those groups of workers who
would destroy the State Federation
or run it to suit their own pecu-
liar views.
There has been no attack upon
the Seattle labor movement made
by any union or union man in this
State. but there has been an attack
made upon the State labor move
ment by groups of organized work
ers and the Seattle Union Record
because they would remodel it to
suit their own untried form Of la
bor federation, or destroy it.

"The language of flowers is one of

most intricate studies that every

says Tsuru Aoki, the dainty and
charming wife of Sessue Hayakawa
"The kind of flowers, and the way
they are arranged, have special

ing at the floral decorations, the

and how long he expects to remain
in the country.
Tea drinking is another cere-
mony which is performed with a
set ritual. Each guest, according to
his position at the tea party, is ex-
pected to make certain reference
to the quality of the tea, the artistic
worth of the ancestral porcelain in
which the tea is served, etc, while
upon the hostess devolves the task
of making responses. always poetic

Cent e naries Of
Famous Women
This Year
Queen Victoria Started the
Ball Rolling to Fame
For Her Sex. .e

Never before, perhaps, has any
one year afforded occasion for the
celebration OF the centenaries of so
many famous women as in the case
of this year. The bead roll of the
women born a century ago-in the
year l8lo-who won distinction for
themselves in various lines of high
@endeavor, is an interesting list, and
their work is worth recalling.
First on the list stands the name
OF Queen Victoria, who occupied
the throne of Britain for nearly 65
years, and whose death in 1901 oc-
casioned worldwide sorrow. All
the world of the present has &C
ccpted the term Victorian era as
representative of the fullness of the
nineteenth century. Thirty-six
years OF the century had gone when
the young queen took the throne,
but they were years that had meant
little of the fulhllment of time al
lotted to her rule. She outlived
every sovereign who sat upon,
throne in the year of her coronation.
In November next the George
Eliot" centenary will be celebrated
by the English-speaking world.
George Eliot" of all women, IS the
greatest writer the world has ever
known. She is also one of the very
greatest writers the world has ever
known, whether of women or men.
With Scott, Dickens and Thack-
cray, she gave to the literature of
the nineteenth century its predomi-
nant character and made it essen
tially>a literature of romance.
Julia Ward Howe.
In May, 1919, was born Julia
Ward Howe, author of the immor-
tai Battle Hymn of the Republic"
: and one of the last of the types of
Americas golden age of literature.
During the course of her long life
Mrs. Howe was at the very fore
front of many movements which
had to do with American literature, !
philanthropy and the emancipation
III her sex. She had the deserved
privilege of associating with the
most distinguished men and women
of two continents. She was the
chamh zion Of almost every good
cause. and. no woman did more for
the advancement of her sex on this
side Of the Atlantic.
One of the most successful Amer
lean novelists of her day was Susan
Warner, born in New York City in
. 1919. At an early age she evinced
decided literary talent. Her first
:. novel, THE Wide, Wide World,
was published under the pen name
of Elizabeth Wetherell' in l849,
and attained phenomenal and con-
;inned popularity. being translated
into French and German.
Eunice Powers Cutter, widely
known in her day as a reformer,
was born at Warren, Mass, in 1919.
In her early married life she trav-
eled throughout New England lee
turing to women on the laws Of
health. In 1856 she and her hus-
band removed to Kansas in the in
terest of the Emigrant Aid society
and as friends of the Free State
party. She furnished to John
Brown the cartridges used in the
Osawatomie fight and was the Gus
todian and messenger of the first
accounts of Kansas affairs forward

The Seeker
BY DORIS KENYON

He sought it in life's fresh and dewy morn;
In mysty woodlands where the shadows lay;
In summer fields amid the rpening corn;
In meadows sweet with hay.
Nor Khansin winds nor winters vulpne tooth
Could daunt him, nor thousand anxious fears,
For still he sought the fount of endless youth
Through long and bitter years.
Nor did he find it on the hoary hills =
Among those spintered crags he toiled in vain,
Where the long thunder rolls and torn cloud spills
Its cold and barren rain.
He sought it by oceans tawny sands;
Amid forgotten cities, gray and old;
Love could not WOO him with her reckoning hands,
Nor friendship, fame gold.
Then to the desert turned his weary feet,
The unattained still Turing all his soul. u.
Till his strained eyes, athwart the dazzling heat =
Beheld at length his goal.
And there he dgged. with heart grown old and scared
Until he found the spring. when lol he stood
Hinged round with mountains he himself had reared,
And persisted in the solitude

LOSING DELIGHT IN BEAUTY

 Going on Today.

An the arts but one, says Layton CrioDon in his book. "Clay and Fire" show degradation today, in many cases degradation 50 great that they have virtually ceased to exist. We have not only forgotten how to make beautiful things but we have even acquired an instincdve dislike of beau tiful things. They seem to have be come offensive to us.
 There was recently one curious little instance to which I am tempt ed to refer. showing as 1t did, that in our present state of degradation beauty is not only ignored, but has actually become offensive, causing in- stinctive dislike. The St. Gaudens ten and five-dollar gold pieces were undoubtedly the nobIest coins produced in any country in 200 years. Within a couple of months the American pub lie had howled them out of circulation.
 'AThe explanation was afterward made that the coins were disliked be- cause the relief was inconveniently high, but the original outcry was against the design and only the de- sign of these exquisite examples of die cutting. But America has no mo nopoly of this instinctive hatred of beauty. It was exemplihed in the van dalism that was common all over Europe, the destruction of ancient and glorious buildings, usually without valid excuse"

BRITISH NAvY'S
 CANTEENING GROVE
Members of American Battle ship Squadron Hear News
 With Regret.

London, Mar. 13.-( Correspondence of the Associated Press )-Crews of the American battIeship squadron which formed one of the powerful outfits of the Grand Fleet that ruled the sea during the war will learn with regreat of the dismanting of the old liner Borodino, the floating can teen for four years of the British navy. according to navy officials.
 Her war work done, the Borodfno now returns to the placid commerce of peace time. How much the Boro- dtno administering to the creature comforts of the fleet, did to relieve the strain of warfare and the mo- notony of life in the dreary regions of Scapa Flow, the Americans can testify. And they will recall how on returning from a sea mission the crew of a United States battleship took a special pride in cleaning up the Borodino, stripping it's we'll stocked counters of the last bun and the last pair of suspenders.
 The Borodino was the first unof- 1cial port of call of the warships on their return from the ardous cruises in the North Sea. The smaller craft would lay themselves alongside the
 
 aboard The larger ships would send their customers in small boats, or would receive visits from the drift ers'' attached to the BOrodino as de- livery vans.
 It was an extra ordinary variety of purchases that the canteen ship offer ed. There were cOmestibIe comforts of every description. all sorts of dainty dishes to break the monOtony of "bully beef and biscuits; tobacco, cigarettes, books and candy.
 That was only part of the stock. Visitors to the Borodino learned that the sailor has delicate tas stes of an- other kind. Choice perfumes at SS a bottle, face cream and expensive toilet soaps constituted one of the most popular departments of the store.
 The BorodIno did not go to sea, of course, with the Grand Fleet, but she had her adventures. Once on a trip from the Mersey she was hailed nlysteriousIy by wireless: What ship is that?"
 ''Borodino," replied the canteen ship innocently.
 Where are you bound?'' was the next question. To everyone afIOat except 8 U-b5at commander the BorodinO's name was her passport, and the inquiry put the vessel on the alert and she cleared out of those waters at full speed. The submarine, seeking the Borodino for its prey, was sunk. Some months later an of 1cer visited the canteen ship and asked for discount on the ground that he was the chap who sank that U-boat."
