THE ENGLISH COAL STRIKE
England Is just now in the throes
OF coal strike that certainly will
have great bearing all over the world
II the strikers win they get the upper
hand OF the government and TO all
intents and purposes, 1t will have the
effect OF establishing a soviet, at least
so far as one industry is concerned
in its relation with the government;
II the strikers lose II will put damp
r upon the tendency OF organized la
Dor 10 dictate to everyone else.
So far as we can learn from the
discussions OF the question in some OF
the English papers, the coal miners
demand two things; one is a reduc-
tion OF the price OF coal to the con-
sumer and the other is an increase in
the wage scale paid. In other words.
the coal miner is attempting to better
himself and the general consumer OF
coal at the expense of the coal mine
owner
The government, after many delays,
and much bantering between itself
and the miners, decided to stand pat
and fight to the end. The English
press and English public opinion,
outside OF organized labor, seems to
be lined up 10 fight the miners.

Why You Should Buy Guaranteed Roofing

ever been known to wear out
on the roof.
And Certain-teed is more than
durable. 1t is weather-proof,
hre-retarding and spark-proof.
1t effectively shelters your
property.
With all these advantages, Ger
tain-teed Roofing costs less to
buy, less to lay and less TO
maintain, than any other type of
good roofing.
See your dealer about Certain
teed. He either has it or can
get it quickly from a nearby
Certain-teed distributing center.

When you buy roofing you
want durability as well as shelf
er. You want to know that it
will last long enough to make
its average cost per year a
reasonable figure.
That is why Certain-teed should
appeal to you. For, when prop
erly laid, Certain-teed Roofing is
guaranteed for S, 10 or IS years,
according to weight.
The guarantee adequately pro-
tects your investment, but it does
not accurately measure Certain
teed's life. In fact no one knows
lust how durable Certain-teed
is, because in no case has it

Promised Storm
Sewer; Withdraws
House From Sale

That some residents OF the city. at
least, desire storm sewers was evil
denced by the action of a resident Of
North Fourth avenue, near Marion
street, who withdrew his home from
the market when he learned the city
was preparing to establish North
avenue drainage district.
The owner of the home was well
satisfied with his place and the
neighborhood but he tired Of navigat-
ing a boat about his premises in the
spring time and whenever heavy
summer rains made lake of his back
yard. Buying diving suits for his
chickens and growing sea weed In
his garden did not prove profitable
SO Mr.. Home Owner decided to sell.
The house recently was placed on
the market and a sale was in pros
pect.. Then came the news Of the
proposed establishment of a Fourth
avenue storm sewer district. This
was as welcome to the Fourth ave-
nue. resident as spring holiday to q
school kid. He immediately with
drew his home from the market
and with storm sewer in prospect
regards his place as having increas-
ed materially in value.
