CALL OFF BUFFALO STRIKE
Clothing Workers, Out Since June p
Last, Decide to Return to Their
Old Jobs.

Buffa1o's clothing workers strike
called June, % last, to force from the
local manufacturers an Increase In
wages and recognition of their union,
has ended. Striking tailors. finishers
and others who laid down their tools
to enforce their demands, are now ap-
plying for their old jobs.
The strike was called last June fol-
lowing the refusal Of the local manu-
facturers to increase the Buffalo scale
to the plane in existence in Rochester,
where union officials say there is
slight advance over Buffalo prices. The
workers also demanded recognition OF
their union. Several efforts were made
to adjust the difficulties but without re-
suit. The manufacturers have recently
filled many of the strikers places with
nOnunion workers, and the employers
say that these workers will not be dis
charged to make room for the strik-
ers. The workers are now working
on a piecework production basis.

Christmas at Ozark

The Sunday Schools of the town celebrated Christmas in a most appropriate manner Friday even. ing. Each school furnished Il Christmas tree and programs were rendered by the children.
 Santa Claus was the most well comed guest at some of the churches. There has never been -- ---s,;-aA--ii.nr--tha history of Ozark when glfts were more unSeInsuIy bestowed.
 Santa Claus visited families where there was sickness and there was no time to think of gifts. From one school each class selected family and sent their remembrances. which con sisted of wctl.iiiled market bas- kets, warm clothing, candy and nuts and fruit. The families wis tied in that way were duly grate- ful and appreciative-so much so that words could not express their joy.

Christmas Decorations
Why Holly ls Used

Holly has ita place in the ,e- gends. and at one time many carols were composed in it's honor.
 European peasants think that a sprlg of berried holly which has been used in church decora- tio will bring luck to the house; 1; so when the evergreens are re. moved, they beg for a spray. Holly used loF decorating houses must. on the other nand. be burn after January l. or ill luck will follow.
 In some parts of England. as in Ireland. girls seek Omens from burning the Christmas decora- tons. and they say the more noise they make and the brighter they blaze up. the warmer IS tn. affection of ther lovers. In some places 1t IS considered uniucky to burn the Christmas decorations, so they are thrown away instead. The holly tree was dedicated to Saturn and was said to have many tealing virtues. A pretty legend Is handed d .wn about the first Chris mas tree. When Ans- garius preached and heralded the White Christ" to the Vikings of the North. the Lord sent his three messengers. Faith, Hope. and Love, to help to find the first tree. They were to seek one that should 1 be as high as hope. as wide as love and that bore the sign of the cross on every bough: So they chose the balsam fir, as 1t me, their requirements better than | any other tree in the forests, It was usual at Roman we'd

School Note

School at Marble Hill opened December 27th. under most au- spicious circumstances. The c people have one "f the incest and best rural buildings in the county. It ts as neat as . pin and built to conform to all the demands o' school construction. This splen- did building is situated on we'll drained 5-acre campus.
 Some years ago. districts l9 and 37 were consolidated, an this building is the result of it. Whatever aniagonism was ere ated by this union has long since vanished and there seems to be not as much as a ripple of dissaf- isfaction in the district. J. E. Yates and Helen Agee are in charge of the school this term.

Sunflowers for Silage

The Wisconsin Farmer says: That
the interest in the use of sunfowers for
silage is growing is indicated by sever
al inquiries received recently from our
readers AS yet, however, farmers in
sections where corn can be grown to
advantage for the siio have no particu-
lar occasion to give the sunf1ower an
opportunity to show it's worth as for
age crop.
Realizing that the sunfiower pos
sessed possibilities, the Wisconsin ex-
pertinent station has carried out sever
al field tests for the first time during
the past year In some instances, as
much as twenty tons of silage to the
acre were received, all of which was
harvested to good advantage. The
fact that sunfowers sufficiently ma
tured for silage purposes in Ashland
and Florence counties indicates that
they are particularly adapted to those
regions where more or less hazard
must he taken every year, even with
our earliest maturing varieties of corn.
In Ohio, Lake county farmer, who
has fed corn silage for many years, has
tried feeding silage made from equal
parts of corn and sunhowers, with re-
markabe results. He claims that his
cattle ate this silage with more relish
than corn silage alone, and that less
was required Every part of the stalks
and the butts were cleaned up at every
feeding. He has carried on his trials
for three years and says he has OBJ
tanned three times as much silage per
acre as he formerly did of corn silage
alone. He claims that sunfiowers are
harder than corn, easier grown, earlier
maturing. and more frost resistant.

Thrift and Hoarding

State Treasurer Henry johnson hes
this to say in the Milwaukee Sentinel:
This is Thrift Week. However, it
may not be an easy matter to distin-
gnish between thrift, boarding and
profteering.
Forty years ago, we early settler in
Oconto county would start with OK
team for Shawano, distance of TWEEN
ty-eight miles, for the purpose of lay
ing in our winter supplies. 1t useG to
take us four days to make the trip, but
as there were no hotel bills our expen-
ses were light. Upon arriving at Shaw
ano we would each buy barcel of SUI
gar, three to five barrels of -four, and
groceries enough to last all winter In
fact we would buy all we could pay for,
and don't forget this last sentence. We
used to call this thrift Nowadays if a
man should come home with load of
supplies of. that kind he would be con-
sidered hoarder. We used to point
with pride to successful business man.
Today he is classified as profiteer.
We were promised some time ago
that Investigators would bring the cost
of sugar down to III cents, but it went
up to Fl
When we talk about thrift, half of
our people will soon be eng aged in in
speeding the other half Whereas, if
these Investigators would go to work to
prodce something instead of consuming
it would have tendency to bring down
the high cost of living. Supply and
demand is the only regulation that |
know of. There may be another way,
but so far l have failed to see it.

Play. Play.

The young of all species play. Thru
play they develop instincts into habits
of life, becoming educated by play for
life work. This is true of animals and
children. When little girls play with
dolls, they learn many valuable lessons
in housekeeping and baby tending.
In the reflex movement of baby's
arms and legs comes the child's first
play. These movements are the baby's
manner of exercising it's muscles and
should not be hampered by it's clothing.
If three months old baby has has not
begun to use its arms and legs quite
vigorously, it's mother has cause for
some concern.
Play contributes to most of the inn
mediate needs of childhood. Play sup
plies for the child, exercise in the open
air; appetite for food, and inclination
and capacity for long hours of I'M
troubled sleep. On the mental side,
play makes its contribution also by fill
ling the mind with wholesome interest
and affording opportunities for quick
accurate decisions. The child at play
schools his muscles, fills his lungs with
fresh air, and develope memory, imag-
ination, and reasoning power, all in
joyous Inconsistencies of the far reach
ing results of his spontaneous activity.
Play of one kind or another there must
be- The child who does not play is
graver problem than the child who
wishes to do nothing but play.
1t is a great pity that there are not
more forms of physical play in which
adults can indulge with the whole
heartedness of normal children If
there were more, there would be fewer
prematurely old men and women and
more vacant lots in the cemeteries.
