Then. too, how could they go homo
without the caps? So you see they
really were in a terrible dilemma, and
they told the big wave just how ii
was. but she would only say that thS
waves sisters must have the caps or
the Fairies could not have the green
ones they lost over the rocks.
Just then a great tossing of water
was seen far out at sea and away
tumbled the waves with the two green
caps. while the frightened little Fairies
watched them from the high rock,
wondering what ever they should do
But i'm a few seconds they forgot TO
worry about the caps. they were so
surprised TO see two big Dolphins fas-
ten.d 20 a pearl chariot come up from
the water and. I'M the chariot big man
with a white beard.
AT the Wave Sisters dashed around
the chariot and the din they made the
Fairies could plainly hear.
Then all at once toward the rock
came the Dolphins, and the Wave Sis
ters followed behind the chariots, the
wheels OF which seemed TO roll over
ne water as easily as they would have
lone on land.
W her the rock was reached the big
man. who was Father Neptune. the
god OF the sea. said 10 the Fairies:
My children want some caps and they
tell me you cannot come down unde-.

Here Is a conch shell: get your
wands and climb down the rock: once
inside this shell you and your wands
are safe and / viii take YOU TO my
castle under the sea. where you can
make the caps which my children
wish"
Poor little Fairies, they had 10 do as
Neptune told them. for they could no,
return TO Fairyland without those
green caps, so they got their wands
and fitted down the side of the steep
rock where Neptune was awaiting

glitter that was immune from SYM

The gold leaf is being put in place

tractor reports that the building
would soon be ready to occupy if it
were possible to obtain the various
materials as needed. The tower clock
has been received and will soon be
installed. The large pipe organ for
the auditorium has been shipped.
Thanksgiving Day was celebrated
at Good Will in the usual manner
with a chicken dinner for every cot
tage and the other necessary articles
to make it complete. The evening
before Good Will Night was cele-
brated in Moody hall by vari-
Gus reports being read and prizes

Editorial Comment
Another Side to Labor
public Ledger


Organized labor is showing itself in
protean forms in these strenuous
days of new adventures in industry.
The forms range from threats of ma
tion-Hife strike in the interest of
wages to constructive efforts of an
upbuilding kind. For the latest of
these the employees of the Boston
Navy Yard have supplied an exam
pie. The Navy Yard is lowest bidder
by s1,S02,000 on the proposal to re-
condition the giant steamer Levia-
than. But the objection has been
made against awarding it the work
that Navy Yard cannot give a
guarantee against cost exceeding the
estimate.
The employees of the Navy Yard
want that job done there. If it is,
something like 5000 of them would be
kept busy for at least year. So
they set about thinking how they
could clinch their position as lowest
bidders. Their answer was to vote
that a certain percentage of their
wages be set aside regularly to form
a guarantee fund. If the contract is
not executed at the figure estimated,
this guarantee fund may be drawn
on. Mayor Peters. of Boston, has no.
titled Secretary of the Navy DENLY
and Chairman Lasker, of the Ship
ping Board. to this effect, adding that
he considered this "one of the most
notable and impressive actions ever
taken by a labor body" The fact
that orgc niZcd labor can undertake
constructive actions of this kind lays
upon it responsibilities of no mean
weight in connection with actions Of
another sort, for which it is some
times better advertised.

Plucky Caribou Won
an Drives Man Who
Wants His SoiZed Rum

Caribou, Nc, Nov. 26-When Mrs.
Archie ST. Peter was awakened by a
noise in the room, where she and her
husband, who is an enforcement Of
ficer, were sleeping, Thursday night,
and saw a mashed man with re-
volvcr in one hand and scarchlight
in the other she didn't faint or
scream.
What did YOU do with my rum: l
want H." demanded the intruder
Awakening her husband, Mrs. St
Peter bounded out of bed and flew at
the man. grabbing the mask from his
face, exclaiming: 'Tll show YOU where
your rum is; get out of here"
So bewildercd was the man that he
turned and fed down the stairs out of
the street door. Mr.. st. Peter gave
chase, but there was no trace of the
man. He is believed to be the owner
or interested in a large seizure of
whisky which had been made by Mr..
st. Peter. 1t is said that an arrest Is
probable.
