CHIEF GOMPERS
ASSURES LABOR'S
PLACE FOR 1920
Pledges American Workers
Will Do Their Full Share
In Working Out Problems.

Washington, Dec. 3l.--Samuel
Gompers, president of the Ameri.
can Federation of Labor, in = New
Years statement, pledged Americas
workers to do their full share in
working out the country's problems
in 1920. Mr.. Gompers said:
Americas workers stand ready
in the new year as in the past to do
their duty as American citizens. We
have always placed our obligations
as citizens above all else. As citi-
zens we are true to the American
ideal of equal opportunity for all.
I'm the past we have found it nee
essary to fight for that ideal against
agencies that sought to establish
special privileges. Those fights have
not been in defense of class advan-
tages, but to assure to wage earne-s
the rights and opportunities that al
should possess. Our struggles may
have brought discomfort to others.
but they prevented a greater evil
deterioration of the virility of part
of the nation.
Great Struggle in Past.
"The great struggle of labor in
the past has been to assure to work.
ers in their industrial relations the
rights of free citizens. We have
fought to give the ideal of America
dominating influence in shops and
factories. Our militant struggle has
won general recognition for our de-
mands. But our work is not all mill
tant. We are in position to con-
tribute to the improvement of pro-
duction processes and organization.
"The immediate problem of the
world is to develop production or
ganization that will benefit directly

Search Out the
Germs of Rheumatism

The medical profession is
practically agreed upon one
point, however, and that is
that Rheumatism is more
than a series of local pains,
and that the real cause of
the disease is deep-seated,
and cannot posi- b ly be
reached by remedies applied
to the surface.
In other words, you can
not rub away the intense
pains of Rheumatism.
Some forms of this disease
have been found to come
from a tiny germ in the
blood, which set up their
colony in the muscles or
joints and begin to multiply
by the million. You can cas-
lily understand, therefore,
that the only intelligent
method Of treating such
cases is through the blood.
S. S. S. is such a thorough
blood purifier and cleanser
that it can be relied upon to
search out all disease germs
and impurities and eliminate
them from the system, and
this is why it is such an eX-
cellent remedy for Rheuma-
tism. 1t has been used with
great success in thousands
of cases, and the fact that
it searches out the germs
that cause the disease, and
eliminates them from the
blood makes it the logical
treatment.

\ total of a little more than S4.-
500 had been raised at noon yester
day by the teams out on the Saliva
zion Army drive. A number of
workers had NOT closed their re-
ports last night and it was believed
that the full amount would be

third of the entire quota of $4,000

$4,000 DAMAGES

The truth Of the matter is
a great majority of the most
learned doctors are full OF
doubts about Rheumatism
They probably are familiar
with some of the local con-
ditions that superinduce the
disease, as we'll as its pc
culiarities and effects, but
when it comes to a definite
analysis of the disease, in all
of its different phases, the
medical profession has made
little progress toward mas
tering this painful disease.
Perhaps, like thousands of
other sufferers, you have
thought that the right way
to treat Rheumatism is to
rub with liniments and To-
tions that part of the body
where the pain is felt. This
seems like a reasonable
thing to do, and sometimes
results in some slight relief
for the time being.
But the pains very prompt
ly return, and you very soon
realize that such treatment
merely gives temporary re-
lief, without making any i'm
preston upon the progress
of the disease. In fact, if To-
cal applications of liniments.
lotions and other similar
treatment would cure Rheu-
matism, the disease would
be very easily conquered,
for the average sufferer has
used such remedies almost
by the gallon, and each sea-
son finds them more firmly |
in the grip of the disease
than before.

"VIRGlN OF STEAMBOAT"

To Be Mt Ideal Theatcr Four Days.
Critics who have had an oppor-
tunity to obtain a pre-release view
of the latest Universal level pro-
duction, The Virgin of STAN
bouL" starring Priscilla Dean, have
been unstinted in their praise of
this picturesque photodrama which
is announced for four days, starting
Sunday, May 23, at the Ideal thea
ter.
The story was written especially
for Priscilla Dean by II, II. Van
Loan, and it is said that he kept
her vision before him constantly
during the months he was at work
on this colorful romance. the
scenes of which are laid in STAN
boul, the wickedest city in the
world. The result is, from all ac-
counts, that Van Loan has sup
piled Miss Dean with a role that
permits her to exercise the thou
sand and one phases of her mag
netic art.
The central figure in THE Viz
gin of Stamboul' is Sari, a beggar
girl on the streets of the Turkish
city, wild as an Arabian steed, and
according TO the Moslem creed,
with a soul as the filth in the
streets. While secreted in the
mosque, whittier she has gone,
against the law, to pray that her
soul may be cleansed, she is wit
ness to a brutal crime and becomes
embroiled in a chain of cireum-
stances as fantastic as the Arabian
Nights.
Sari's meeting with the young
American commander of the Black
Horse Troop, composed of the
scum of Asia, her wooing by the
powerful sheik, her Imprisonment
in and escape from the harem, her
wild ride across the desert at the
head of the untamed cavalry-all
are but a few Incidents from a
story that is alive with tense drama
and stirring situations.
The photodrama has been given
a sumptuous production by Tod
and the principal char
acters are portrayed by Miss Dean,
Wheeler Oakman, Wallace Berry,
e. A. Warren, Edward Burns,
Eugene Forde, Ethel Richie, Nigel
lie Brullier and Yvette Mitchell.
