AN APPEAL TO NON-UNION
WORKMEN

(By John Scott)
Listen! my non-union brother,
To your reason | appeal.
Reasoning, one with the other,
Cannot but enhance our veal.
Bitterness, misunderstanding
Flourish 'twiXt you and me,
And the fissure seems expanding
Really, this should not be.
Business big observes the battle
With a sort of sneering smile;
And, considering US as cattle,
Treats us as not worth his while.
Brothers, we have schemed and
striven,
'Gainst this monster and his might;
Suffered, sacrificed and given,
That conditions may be right.
collective action" was our lever;
Thus, alone, did we succeed;
And the fruits of our endeavor
Ye have shared, as was your need.
Ye have robbed US of the fullness
Of conditions dearly won;
And with simply Calling GOODNESS
Did all obligations shun.
But, despite your non-assistance,
And the help you gave the foe,
We have somewhat eased existence
And we will continue so.
Brother. there's the situation
Do YOU think it playing the game?
Can't you see your obligation?
Do you have no sense OF shame
Most unhealthy satisfaction,
Surely, brother, it must prove
Hanging to the wheels of action,
While the wheels of progress move.
Cease, sir. cease to be traitor
Cease to play the vulture's part.
To the tyrant cease to cater,
And the fight for justice start.
Just so long as we're divided,
Just so long as we are lew,
Will our action be derided,
And oppressors ply the screw.
toner's, YOU lc
Put your shoulders to the wheel. =
Men, we've got to be united
To advance our common veal.
Time and circumstance demand 1t,
Will you be hanger-on?
Will you be Stacker branded?
Will you leave it all "to john"
Men with grit and vim are wanted;
Men with brains, and men with go
Men who take defeat undaunted,
Ready for another blow.
Brothers, history is making,
Can you see the golden dawn
Thru the mists of struggle breaking,
Labor coming to its own?
Line up, then, with those who battle
In the struggle, which is yours;
Make your verbal cannons rattle
Organize like men, be doers.

THE STREETS OF LIFE
Anne Looks for a Wdy Out

hope to get even 50 little cash. and the !
took must be settled for.
She wns 50 exhausted with the emo
tional experience she had gone through |
that she slept almost as soon as her
head touched the pillow. She awoke the
next morning with that heavy feeling
that something had happened, something
that she could not shake off. Then she
remembered. and with sick feeling OF
despair buried her face in the pillow.
She was so white at breakfast that
Aunt Martha. who stole glances at the
girl when she wasn't looking, was really
concerned 1t wouldn't do for Anne
to be really i'll. Jim Carter had gone out
early and as soon as the breakfast dishes
were out of the way Aunt Martha sug-
gested that Anne take a walk.
| You need some fresh air." she said
as kindly as she could.
Anne met the postman as she steppe,l
out on the porch and he handed her a
little bunch of mail No mail ever came
to the Carriers that was exciting. Farm
journals were delivered. advertisements.
once in while a business letter with
typewriter address. but this morning
a square envelope addressed to Miss
Anne Carter made Anne suddenly open
her eyes.
She slipped the letter into her waist
and went back to hand the papers TO
Aunt Maatha. Then as soon as she was
out of sight Of the house she opened
the envelope. 1t contained short note
from Bill Snyder saying that he had been
called out of town on business. and
would come and see her as soon as he
returned Anne folded up the single
sheet of paper and put it back into the
envelope. Her heart gave little leap.
she felt immeasurably happier, the sun
was brighter, everything seemed differ
ent. Quite suddenly, too. she knew that
she could never take that money for the
book. She must get some money in some
other way; she must earn some.
She bought a cheap envelope in a
store. and folding the money that Bill
Snyder had given her in a sheet of pa
per. she put it into the envelope, ad
dressed it. and with a little sigh of re
lief dropped it into the box at the post
office. Bill would not receive it until
he returned and in the meantime any
thing might happen. With the sublime
self confidence of youth Anne felt that
something must happen: at any rate.
the awful feeling of being caught in a
net that had 50 oppressed her the night
before had almost gone. Anything
would be- better than to be forced to
marry a man she hated.
(TOmOrrOw-Anne meets a stranger.)

warm in the bath. say about $50 de-
grccS. an" as soon aS the jars are in.
bring to the boiling point quickly and
then boil as rapidly as possible for the
required length of time.
As soon as the time Is up remove at
once from the bath and fasten the jars
securely. Place on tray and remove
to a cool room which is free from
drafts and allow the jars to cool.
Test for leaks by turning upside down
and then dip the top Of the jars in
melted parowaX and store in cool. dry
place.
How TO Prepare the Hot Water Bath
\ regular hot water outfit may be
purchased AT reasonable price and 1t
will really pay in the end. However.
a washboicr may be utilized by plaC-
ing a wire and wooden frame in the bot.
tom. thus raising the jas at least one
inch from the bottom of the boiler.
Cover the tops of the hot water bath with
two thiCkncsSeS Of newspaper to keep
the steam in. Before placing on the lid
put the newspapers in position and then
put a weight on the lid when it is shut.
Securing modern equipment to do this
work is not eXtravagant. but rather cf-
fiCicnt and prudent on the part of the
housewife Racks to hold the jars in
the bath and to remove them from the
boiling water cost very little in price
and they prevent burned fingers and
Scaldcd hands. WrcnChCs to tighten the
tops Of tho Jars are also necessary.

the housewife will run knife under

Now recently in an argument which !

dance halls. They also claimed that no
decent. self respecting girl will be seen
at a public dance. even when she goes
along with a crowd Of girl friends.
Please give US your opinion in this
matter. BOY READER.
There are plenty OF properly super
viScd places where nice boys and girls
can dance. 1t is a mistake to condemn
dance halls in general because some are
badly conducted. The wise way to go
to dances of this kind is to make up
your own party OF four of five boys

NHlLE he had talked Bill Snyder
w had drawn nearer to Anne uncon-
Sciously. and quite suddenly found his
face near to hers. The impression that
his kindness had made upon her was
swallowed up in a rcvulsion OF feeling.
She saw only his cleaning eyes. and the
Iooseuess of his mouth. That terrible
feeling Of distrust that she had felt the
first time she had ever seen him was
filling her with loathing. that fear that
he would touch her made her mouth dry
