DON'T PLACE YOUR
FAITH IN STRANGERS

The days have not yet come whel
all of the people of this communit.
cease to be buneoed by smooth
tongued sharpers or flowery pictured
catalogues. Every day we hear o
some one being duped all because o.
innocent faith In strangers.
If we would confine our dealings
as much as possible to people we
know, we would fare much better
Instead of sending our money away
to people we never saw, or ever ex-
pect to see, let's spend it where we
know who gets it.
The biggest reason is that the
fellow we know has to face us every
day and can't afford to sitting" us.
He has reputation for square deal
ing which he wants to keep. He's
your local merchant-your Friend.
Learn to know him better 1t pays
you because he has to make it pay
you. In emergencies you run to your
local drug store for quick prescrip-
tions. Or, to finish dress before go
ing on a trip, you find you need just
little more goods and run to the
dry goods store to purchase 1t. Or,
in numerous other ways you find
your local store convenient and rea.
dy to supply an urgent need. But if
you patronize these stores only
when you need something in hurry
away to out of-town concerns the
local store cannot continue to exist.
They must have your support at all
times if you want them here in times
OF urgent need. Trade at home and
support the town that supports you.

AN HONEST DAYS WORK

When labor organizes for the pur
pose of obtaining fair wage am
proper working conditions it is en-
titled to the support of all RICH
thinking people.
When it organizes or uses its or
CARNATIONS to restrict production, /
becomes a menace to the public wei
fare and merits universal opposi
ton and condemnation
The eight-hour day met with popu
lar approval on the assumption tina
with the incentive of shorter day
labor would work faithfully and dill
gently.
1t was not intended that labor
should at the same time either ac-
tually or relatively become less eff
cient or less productive.
Had the public realized the pro
duct of days labor would there
by be actually and relatively reduced
the eight-hour day would never have
been established except for female la
Dor.
Labor is fed by the products of the
ranch and farm. The rancher and
farmer have no eight-hour day
Crops are neither sown, cultivated
nor harvested on an eight-hour scale;
nor do they grow and ripen by any
artificial formula, scale or rule, pro
mulgated by man.
Why, as was aptly asked by
farmers organization. should a farm
er be compelled to work IS hours al
week to feed a city chap receiving
higher wages who works but Az?
Is it the divine duty of the farmer
because he is not organized to feed
the latter because he is?
Organized labor will do well to !
change it's course. If it continues to
abuse the eight-hour day by stacking
on the Job while labor in other coun-
tries with which we compete is pro-
ducing to full capacity either our in
dustries must topple and fail or the
eight-hour day must go.
In other words no arrangement
can long prevail which does not main
tain reciprocal relations between
volume and cost Of production, or
which does not contemplate and in
sure that for q full days pay there
shall be rendered an honest days
work. II
We can succeed neither as an in
dustrial nation or people If we are 6
going to spend one-third Of our time i
IN sleep, another in a rocking chair '
'r limousine, and the remaining c
bird trying to obtain the greatest g
amount OF pay for the least amount
u work. No industry, no country and
10 people can long endure or sur r
i've the blighting effect Of such an II
economic antithesis. N

men who appear afraid to discuss
their affairs, and firmly believe
that no one ever tried to educate
the public on school problems, and
did not profit by 1t.
People who pay money to support
school have perfect right to
know what is done with that money.
Aside from any question of right
and wrong, there is no better way

THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH AWAKE


A great movement known as the
Nationwide Campaign is stirring the
life of the Episcopal Church through
out the country. There is hardly a
journal of any size in any town of
the United States that is not putting
conspicuously before it's readers this
new birth in efficiency and consecra-
ton. In the last few years, every
man, woman, and child in America
has felt a new pride in America.
Every one has worked and sacrificed
and given for a common cause. New
or in the history of our country has
there been so much loyal devotion
expressed by its citizenship. Now
the religious life of America is aim
ing to capitalize all this patriotism in
terms of religious devotion and ser
vice. In this mighty enterprise, the
Episcopal Church is having a very
real part.
At the General Convention of the
Episcopal Church held in Detroit
in October 1919, the Church in con-
vention assembled, endorsed this
movement SO enthusiastically that |
every delegate to that Convention. |
and there we're nearly 1000 of them,
went back to their respective States
and cities and towns as messengers
of this new idea that the Church |
could be as militant and as patriotic
and as serviceable as the State. The
organization is so complete that in
no diocese of the United States is
there any haphazard and go as you
please work going on. Laymen are
being pressed into service and are
giving four-minute addresses from
the pulpits of the Churches in the in
terest of the Kingdom of God just
as they were in the interest of the
Red Cross and the Liberty Loan a
year or two ago. This is layman's
The clergy have endors-
ed tia but the laymen are doing the
work. 1t is an attempt to utilize the
strength to meet the problems and to
realize he opportunities Of the Epis-
opal Church.
About a year ago, an office was
yet up in New York City and most
efficient organization began It's work.
Then into the general budget, pre-
pared at the central office, went the
mounts needed for missionary &C
ivities, the work of religious educa-
ion, and the work of social service.
The campaign is going so enthusiast

STOP PASSING THE BUCK

IEIHEN City Council meets in special ses-
w sion tomorrow at the summons of Mayor
Moore it will become clear whether the bust
ness of passing the buck on the five-ccnt
carfarc issue is to continue or not
When the =. r. T. asked for permission
to abolish all transfers and exchange tickets
the Mayor told Council he had no advice to
offer and that it was UP to the Council.
Tho jurisdiction Of the Council. however, IL
disputed. Op.Llons differ widely. Colonel
Sheldon Potter, one of the city's represen-
tatives in the traction directorate. has said
that so long as five cent basic fare is
cnargcd the granting of exchange tickets and
free transfers is within the discretion of the
p. II. Il.
But the abolition of transfer an ex
change ticket at a given point will increase
the amount of fare paid by 20 per cent Of
the passengers The 1907 contract pro-
vidrs that no increase in fare shall be made
withou: the agreement of the city.
The p. r. T.. in asking the consent OF
Council to the abolition of transfers and
exchange tickets, tacitly admitted that an
increase of fare is involved. But Council
has taken no action. Nor has it received
any advice that it regards as authoritative.
There is a general opinion that the mem
brrs have procrastnatcd because they are
afraid to assume responsibility
There is also general opinion that the
Mayor shirkcd his own responsibilities when
he nut the whole matter up to Council. His
call of Council to meet in special session
tomorrow is his first assumption of any re-
sronsibilty. 1t means that he believes that
Council should act. If he does his full duty
he will advise it either by word OF mouth
or in n written message what action he
thinks it should take.
Council needs advice. The Mayor can tell
it that he agrees with Colonel Potter or that
transfers and exchange tickets cannot be
abolished without the consent OF the city
And he can say whether, in view OF the e1-
igcncies of the situation, all passengers
should be required to pay five cents for each
ride in one car. .
The public at large as well as Council
has n right to know what the position of the
Mayor Is.

STILL THE SECOND STATE

DOPULATION figures are embarrassing
10 professional boosters. but as these are
not numerous in Pennsylvania there is no
unpleasant shock - indeed. quito the con
trary-in the completed census report on
this commonwealth. In period during
part of which immigration on n great scale
was suspended Pennsylvania added more
than million to it's Inhabitants and is nc
credited with an increase of 1873 per cent.
Much of the growth was doubtless due TO
the tremendous development Of war indus
tries magnets which caused population
transfers throughout the nation. This is
/. evident in the case of Michigan. which grew
more than 30 per cent; in Ohio. which grew
20. and even in Virginia. which increased by
nearly 12 per cent. The special lodestonc
In the last named state was obviously the
great plants grouped around Hampton Roads.
The retention by PENNSYLVANIA of second
place among states was also to have been
aexpectcd. This position has been held since
1890. when the state surpassed Virginia.
The rates of increase have varied. but the
totals have gone steadily upward. attaining
the maximum of .055. .04S within the last
decade.
One way to appreciate this gain is to.
realize that it was more than 900 years be-
fore Philadelphia, though growing steadily
all the while, contained that many people.

bonfire is by no means harmless, having re-
suited in thirty nine fires, and rubbish care
lessly left to lie in dangerous places swelled
the total by 107.
"One item is n significant one. 1t shows
that LAB fires, inside of eight months, were
directly traceable to mischievous' boys.
Would any one deny that there is room for
reform here?
''As totalcd so far this year. our records
show 11S9 fires in dwellings, 300 in auto
mobiles or trucks 93 in mills, 81 in gar
ages. 90 in Office buildings. SO In unoccuped
buildings, ~ in stables and 81 in ware
houses. There were only nine in public
schools, which shows, I think, the success
OF our last years campaign. There were
"a in railroad cars and II in the trolley cars.
In the year 1911 there were 3S7S fires,
and in succeeding years the fire list grew
regularly to 1918, when it was 5771. Last
year 1t dropped to 5O76. but so far this year
there have been 1853 fires which means that
II the proportion is continued for the rest
OF the year 1920 will have 5779 fires
The per capita loss by fire in England
and Europe ranges between thirty and forty
cents year. In this city it is $2.47.
Abroad 1t is serious thing for man to
nave fire in his house. II he merely rents
the place he is responsible for the loss to
the owner and he is accused of arson.
III is my very strong hope that in the
near future an increased force and in
creased facilities will enable PHILADELPHIA to
show decided step forward in fire preyen-
tion, with regular inspections of all sections
OF the city and new ordinances covering
problems that have developed in recent
years.
