WORKERS MAY
 TOCOURTS
ARE PLANNING TO START UTICA TION IF WAGES ARE GREAT
 LY REDUCED.

Washington, May 18-Soon after the news was received here that the Feder- al Labor Board at Chicago would an nounce on June 1 wage reductions ap- plying to all cases submitted to it pri- or to April IS, representatives of the 1 1,OOO, ,OOO unskilled workers affected began to lay plans to meet such an emergency.
 As result of the conferences 1t was practically decided to ask for review of the decisions of the Labor Board by the courts in the event the reductions, which are to be announced, are not, in the opinion of the labor leaders, jus tified by the evidence submitted to the board.
 No action will be taken until the de- cision is rendered by the Labor Board on June 1. If the representatives of the workers then believe that the decis- ion is unfaiS and not in accordance with the evidence presented, applica- tion will be made in a federal district court for a review. It is held by w.. lett Lauck, economist for the workers, and other leaders here that there is plenty of precedent for such an appeal to the courts.
 Mir. Lauck and his associates take the position that the workers are simply proposing to protect themselves in the event the reduction goes into effect. Mir. Lauck was in touch today with Bert M. Jewell president of the Elm ployees Department of the American Federation of Labor whi is in Chicago and the decision was reached, 1t IS said that discussion of preliminary plans was justified.
 The Labor Board at Chicago in its announcement yesterday did not say that there would be general reduction The railroad workers are preparing for whatever may come, and they say that if necessary that they will carry tbeir case to the United States Supreme Court.
 In applying to the court for a re- view. the workers would ask that tenn porary order be issued making the re ductions announced, imperative unth the disposition of the case was reached This it is probable would bring on lengthy legal battle which would last several months.-Gazette.

0UCIFY TWO MEN
 IN RELIGIOUS RITES

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M.-Two men were crucified at the Penitente village of Abiquiu in northern New Mexico, on Good Friday in observance of Holy week in rites performed by members of the Herfnanos de Luz Brothers of Light, a religious order, according to B. J. Norfeldt and Gustave Baumann, artists of Santa Fe, N. M., who ar rived here today.
 Nordfeldt and Baumann say they were members of a party of two dog en tourists who witnessed the cruci- fxion and the flagellation ceremonies connected with it.
 For more than half hour the ar lists say, the two human sacrifices were tied to huge wooden crosses, at the end of which time they were taken down, bleeding and exhausted. The condition of the men is said to be serious and their recovery is in doubt.
 The Penitentes, as the Hemanos de Luz are more commonly known, are Indians with Mexican admix- ture. The order has many followers, it is understood, in remote villages of this state. Although supposed to be dying out the order still attracts wide attention because of the mysterious ness of it's ceremonies, which Ameri- cans seldom are able to witness.
 The principles and practices of the order are said to have come from Italy through Spain and Mexico. The so-called Whipping Brotherhoods es- tablished by St. Anthony of Padua Italy, are said to have been the fore runners of the strange cult.
 Last Friday was one of the rare oc- casions, according to the two artists, on which Americans were permitted to witness the most solemn ceremon- ies performed by the Penitentes.
 "The Penitentes formed in a long procession" said Nordfeldt, land marching to slow weird music beat themselves with thorn whips soaked in brine water to wound themselves and make their wounds smart. One man carried a large wooden cross un- der the weight of which he fell ex- hausted frequently. The procession ended with members of the order tied to them"
 It is considered an honor among Penitentes to be selected for cruci- fixion.

How citrus Crops Were Saved.

With the temperature lowering around 33 degrees, as t was for two or three weeks in the California citrus fruit district during the winter, the motorcycle frost patrols reduced the damage of former years to a wonder. full extent. Squads of motorcycle rid. CTS were assigned to the different val. leys where oranges, lemons and grape fruit are the principal sources of eco homie wealth. These riders kept tab on a large number of temperature sta. tions in widely separated localities and the moment the mercury dropped to the point of creating frost which would damage the fruit the news was flashed broadcast by telephone. The nnudge pots In the orchards were then lighted and Jack Frost kept above the smoke screen.

FORGOTTEN HISTORY

Salisbury Post.
Remember Pyle's Pearline, soar
powder that was widely sold anil
very popular a few years back?
Ever see it or hear OF it now
Haven't heard of t in long time
have you? Had about forgotten about
it altogether. Ask the grocer about
it, why it is not sold today.
Twenty five years ago Pyle's Pear
line was in general use. it was a
pefs in the stores today who never
hea1G Of it,
Pyle's Pearline was literally ad-
vertsed in the days we are referring
to, the days when it sold big and
when it was . familiar package to
every householder.
What become of It, YOU ask? Ehe
story is simple The owner and
originator who built it up and put
it into American homes as house
hold article t.ied, and the property
passed into other hands. The new
owner di d not believe in advertising
The big advertising campaign was re-
gardea as a useless expense and it
went by the board So did Pearline
in a very short time. AS an adver-
tised article it went big, as a non-ad-
vertiscd article it died and today 9TH
err articles have taken it's place and
advertising built their reputation
which enabled them to supplant
Pearline.
Sam Farabee, editor Of the Hickory
Record, tells of finding a merchant
reading the story Of Pyle's Pearline
and taking advantage of the lesson
he got the merchant to advertise his
goods. Pearline disappeared from
the merchants shelves and from the
American home.
Why? Because it was not adver-
tised and it lost out to the newer ar
ticle that advertised its way into gen
eral use.
Mr.. Business man, are you follow
inc the course of this "has been" ar
ticle and refusing to advertise your
business and the articles you want to
sell
If nation wide success lost out
in few years after its advertising
apportionment was withdrawn, how
do you expect your goods to stay on
top and attract customers and con-
sumers by advertising policy
You think it can be done, but it
cannot be done. The goods that
retain their position, keep in the field
an.. continue to sell are the adver-
tised goods. Remember Pyle's Pear
line.

WHY CONNECTICUT
Boston Post.

Boston Post.
In general it may be said that the
various states of our country are
remedying illiteracy by the logical
process of insisting upon the teach
ing of children and adults--the lat
ter in night schols--and in certain
mil, and shop courses. The tendency
is in the right directions as the fig
ures of the last census show in part
In this respect % states are now
reported and it is worthy of note that
with one exception they show an ad-
vance over 1910. That exception is
Connectichtt with an illiteracy per-
centage of 6.2 in 1920 compared te
one of 6 per cent 10 years ago.
Tnere must he some good reason
for this. since Connecticut is state
of great advancement and a deer
sense of the value Of education. A
sudden influx of illiterate aliens NAV
account fer it. In any event we sh.l
expect to see some clear explanation
Of this poor showing.
