PUZZLE FOR LOVERS OF DOG

Of the subjects upon which some light
is thrown in Dogs, Birds and Others"
by H. ]. Massingham.
A terrier had been in the habit Of
jumping on his masters bed and awak-
ening him each morning at seven
o'clock. When the clocks had been
advanced an hour for summer time,
the man was anxious to see what the
dog would do.
Next morning, as usual, the animal
jumped upon the bed. The clock was
at seven exactly, although really it
was only six o'clock. Had the doc
counted the strokes of the clock when
it struck, or had he understood about
the clocks being put on?

the goal line. If the ball is lost on
downs, players on the offending team
will seldom put forth the same effort
when the oval is retrieved down the
field.
Kick Out Of Bounds.
One of the best plays in football
which has been sadly overlooked in
recent years is the kicking out Of
bounds when close to an opponents
goal, when the necessary distance can
not be gained on fourth down. There
are times when an offending eleven
will be cornered against the side line.
The angle for the field goal kicker
may be too sharp to insure an attempt
with any degree Of certainty, while
the secondary defense viii have an
parts of the field covered for forward
passes.
Under such conditions 1t would be
advisable to surrender the oval by
booting it out Of bounds inside the
opponents five-yard line. This would
make the other team kick from be-
hind its goal line. 1t would pave the
way for the expected "break" and
most certainly put the pressed team in
a bad position.
Games have been won and lost be-
cause field generals have not followed
the rule Of never giving up the ball on
downs. Iowa might have been the
victor over Chicago last year IL
Aubrey Devine had not erred, but 1t is
certainty this great player will not
make the same error this year. 1t is
a mighty good rule to follow.

PAID SPIES in
LABOR UNIONS
System Of Espionage Declared
Policy of Great Industrial
Corporations.
STIRRED UP RACIAL STRIFE
Report Of Committee of Inquiry Of In
terchurch World Movement Also
Shows Despotic Acts of PennsyI.
Vania Municipal Authorities.

Widespread systems of espionage
are an integral part of the anti-union
policy of great industrial corporations,
according to the supplementary report
on the steel strike of 1919, made pub
lie by the commission of inquiry of
the Interchurch World Movement.
The most important of the supple
mentary report deals with employ
ment of spies, known as under
cover men," by the steel corporations,
and the findings are backed up by
hundreds of original documents.
Reports from which the facts were
ascertained were furnished to the COM
mission, along with the blacklist, by
the steel company, which hired spies
from two labor detective agencies.
These spies, the Interchurch investi-
gators found, mixed with the strikers
or held jobs inside the plant dressed
as workers; also, many of them were
inside the unions, frequently as Off
GERS. AS rule, they were foreign
ers," like the wOrkmen they mixed
with.
Their duties were to ''break the
morale Of the strikers" The volume
contains extracts from scores of re-
ports showing how the spy hired by
the steel companies worked like a
workman, talked like a workman,
whispered depressing rumOrs, stirred
up racial strife, and argued failure to
the strikers, and "even in his daily
mailed spy reports advised not so
much 'sluggers' as influence by mu-
nicipal authorities to close up meet
ing places"
The commission recommends fed
eral investigation of labor detective
agencies looking TO their regulation or
abolition.
The action taken by municipal au-
thorities in fOrbidding public meet
ings lead the commission to recon-
mend that the federal government in
vestigate the state of civil liberties in
Pennsylvania and make public two fed
eral government reports made two
years ago. These reports still remain
buried in government files.
The report on civil liberties In west
ern Pennsylvania, by George Soule, is
based on 300 afidavits, signed state
ments, or statements in the presence
of investigators, made by victims, or
by witnesses of violations of civil
rights during the strike.
The report finds that the denial of
the rights of speech and assembly to
workers was a practice in Pennsyl- |
vania before the strike began. Local
regulations and state laws are such as
to facilitate suppression by local au-
thorities, who, in Pennsylvania steel
towns, are frequently mill officials as
well.
