Unionizing Farm Labor

Ray McKaig; head of the non-par-
tisan league of this state, is still
holdings meetings in an effort to
form a combination for political pur-
poses between farmers and union la
Dor.
His effort is bearing fruit in some
sections. Word comes from Ashton
that it has taken the form of an eff
fort to unionize farm laborers. The
members of this union will refuse
to work more than eight hours day,
commencing at and quitting at 5,
with an hour off for dinner. If any
work is done on the farm outside Of
these hours will have to be done
by the owner, as even his sons will
not be permitted to work on the farm
unless they are members of the
union. If the sons, for instance,
should haul a load of grain to an
elevator the man would not handle
it at either end unless the sons be-
longed to their organization.
Wages comparable to those paid
union men in cities will be demanded.
Farmers all over the state are con-
cerned over this movement as they
see that conditions on the farm are
very much different than in cities
and that they could not afford to
be held down to the same require
ments as to labor.

Wood Means Peace

Look out for himl He wears q
uniform. He spells War;"
This is the cry sent broadcast .ovel
the land in an effort to beat Leonard
Wood for the presidential nomina-
ton.
Woods answer was a simple one
He makes no apologies for the uni
form he is wearing.
ITO do So" he said in a recent
statement, would be an insult to
every soldier who died in France or
in any previous war we have waged.
Politicians would like to make the
people believe that because Leonard
Wood stands for universal training,
he is believer in militarism of the
dyed-in-the-wool Prussian variety.
But Leonard Wood allays all these
fears in clear, concise statement of
what universal training means.
Universal training is not a move
for war-it is a stand for peace" he
says in a recent statement.
I'VE must be peaceful in heart,
mind and SOUL" he goes on to ex-
plain, "but we must have a body pre-
pared at all times to defend the
peacefulness that we desire most of
all. The very fact that we are pre-
pared to defend will mean that we
will not have to defend. There is
nothing frightful or gloomy about
universal training; on the contrary
it will cure many of our social and
economical ills"
Universal training, as explained by
him, is nothing more than a school
for the young men of the country.
There will be no consumption. The
mothers and fathers will dictate the
exact manner in which the bows of
the nation will be schooled. 1t will
be nothing but our present American
school system, enlarged to the hun
dredth degree.
Woods statement has Strengthened
him out with the mothers and fathers
of America and silenced the opposi-
ton. His selection does not mean
war but means peace.

Mary Pickford in "Daddy Long Legs

Mary PickfOrd in "Daddy Long Legs.
The most appealing baby types were
selected to be actors in Daddy Long
Legs" and with Mary Pickford among
them, acting the part of little girl
as only she can, the ever moving ac-
ton becomes a series of the most
laughable and touching pictures of
child life. Marshall Neilan, who di-
rected the picture, shows himself a.
master of the humanity interesting in
his handling of his child actors par
ticularly.
One of the most humorous bits is
that in which Judy and a frecklefaced
little boy decide to lead the orphans in
a prune strike. Outwitted by the ma
iron they are driven into the yard
without food They find jug of hard
cider and some sandwiches, which, in
nocently enough, they consume. where
upon they both become gay and get
into all sorts of mischief.
Daddy Long Legs" will be shown
at the Amazon theater on Wednesday
and Thursday nights of this week.
