I3.374 LOCKOUTS AND
 STRIKES IS RECORD
 FOR U. $. IN 1919
Rv Associated Press

Washington, July 7.-Strikes and lock- outs in the United States during 1919 to- tailed 3.374 and affected more than 100000 workers, according to review issued to- day by the department of labor. Approx- imately one-half of the strikes occurred in five states-New York. Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois.
 Although there were thirty-seven more labor conflicts reported last year than in 1918, the total for 1919 was materially un- der that of 1916 and 1917. On the other hand, no strike in 1918 involved as many as 6o,O00 workers while no less than nine walkouts last year interrupted the work of more than 60,000
 The departments review attributed the absence of violence in labor controver- sies during 1919 to less frequent use of strikebreakers.

Link Patience with Vision work the two double harness
and they will in the end emerge triumphant from the crash
of systems and the wreck of worlds"
Vision and Patience stand constant rebuke those

That is especially tre far the problems arising
our social relations concerned And in this connection
would probably be found that social problems pre-

Patience and vision wise They know that it is
much of being served as by serving that human
creatures brought into normal community relations with
their fellows Therein lies the secret of Community Service
Is conceived 1t is not somuch that through Community
Service the individual is mnsered it is that through
Community Service the individual ministers to the
munity.
Community Service, organized by Patience and Vision,
constitutes open door, Through that door the individual
pass and be something in and for the community In
order unite those who be separated by prejudice by
passion by it is only necessary to unite
them in objective Those who working for the
end cannot forever continue working against each other
Community Service has in time to stand for
both Organization and for Idea As organization,
Community Service has back of it this principle: Community
Service is the medium through which the residents of
muty get together and truly become members of it, with
consequent real interest in Community wellbeng, pros
