The Packers and Their Workers

The decision of the workers in the Chicago
packing plants not to act hastily in the wage dis
pute that has arisen in the industry is preferable,
as far as their own interests concerned, to a
hasty cessation of work.
Both capital and labor should act with eau
tion and forbearance at present, when the whole
world is trying to readjust and re-establish it.
self. Hasty action will not accelerate return
to the normal status that guarantees continued
progress and happiness for both sides, while calm
and deliberate judgment will lead to results that
will be satisfactory to both sides.
Not the least interested party to the dispute
is the public, which will suffer from any un-
toward act on either side. The public believes
that the same results can be obtained by pre-
sentation of grievances land claims in a confer
ence before strike that could be obtained after
thousands had quit work Every strike has ulti-
mately been settled in conference of the two
sides. The public believes that the economic waste
of strike and the expenses and discontinue to
which it puts thousands should be avoided by a
settlement before strike has to be called.

Good Evening
BY Ecy X. Moulton

One minister of the dress-reform
symposium says that silk stockings
should not be worn. Anyhow no wo-
man with taste will wear stockings
that are worn, especially where the
worn place is where it will show, so
that seems to settle that.
A prominent optometrist has made
the startling statement that all at
tractive blondes should be deported
They hurt mems eyes" he says.
There is new eye disease which
comes from looking at flashy objects
like yellow hair Men look at blondes
too constantly"
The doctor may be right, but it is
to be hoped that we are to be allowed
n few pleasures in this country. Men
used to get eyestrain from drinking
certain bootlegger brands of hootch
When that was shut off they began
getting eye trouble by staring at
blondes. Men simply seem to be de-
ternined to contract eye trouble III

Men. by the way, have been looking
at blondes fo many years. They took

the famous gentlemen who spent a
great deal of time and money looking
at her was Old Uncle J. Caesar and
Marc Antony. Nobody ever heard of
either of them wearing eyeglasses or
being obliged to sit in a dark room,
but enough other things happened to
them to make up for that.
The blondes are proverbial trouble

nettcs. Men will never agree as TO
which have caused the most. Some
haae amired one style and some the
other.
But what in the name of common
sense will be gained by spelling half
our musical shows and practically all
our movies by deporting the blondes
If they are deported half the men will
follow them and keep on contracting

A Chicago woman confessed that
she had acted as iAre in at least fifty

business for his health?'

Domestic Science Exhibit

The exhibition of the domestic science work
of the pupils of the county schools, which is to
be held at the court house during the week of
April 4, will demonstrate the ability of pupils to
learn some of the practical things of life Last
years exhibit was an unqualified success from
the standpoint of the quality of the work which
was shown.
A few years ago none of us would have be-
lieved that school system should give instruc-
tion in domestic science, but today we believe
that an educational system that overlooks prac-
tical things is not functioning right. Every
patron of the county schools is glad to know that
the school authorities have competent super
visor to instruct the children in this work and
to inculcate in their minds the advantages of
learning these things at school.
The exhibit is not arranged to ''show off, the
prowess of pupils, but to encourage them by dis
playing the work from many parts of the county,
to seek perfection in this branch of their
school duties. Their parents will have an oppor-
tunity of seeing the results that have been &C
complished elsewhere and it will give them an
insight into phase of the educational system
of which they know little.

i. The Symphony Orchestra

The increased attendance at the last concert
of the Symphony orchestra, despite counter at
fractions, as we'll as the enthusiastic reception
which was accorded to the program, shows that
the public is appreciating more fully the efforts
of the organization to offer high standard of
musical entertainment to the citizens of Rich
mond
AS the season advances the public will show
that it is not overlooking the work of the Sym
phony orchestra but is entering into the spirit
which prompted the reorganization of this
musical unit A gradually increasing attendance
at each-of the concerts is manifestation of an
interest that is constantly growing and ultimate
ly will sustain the orchestra.
1t is not the easiest thing imaginable to de-
veop general musical interest in all citizens,
even on the solid foundation that was laid here
many years ago. .as-. ,-..
The growing participation of the public
proves, however, that it is willing to accord the
support which the orchestra deserves; and that,
the weeks roll by, this interest will crystalline
into that full attendance and general support
which is desired.
Sometimes the very slowness of the public to
rally to the support of an enterprise such as the
successful management of the orchestra, is to be
preferred to- mushroom manifestation of inter-
est which disappears the season advances.
Loyal and solid supporters of the orchestra,
who attend the concerts because they love to
hear good music, are preferable to an audience
which is present merely out of sense of duty,
or because it has been dragged into the hall by
the insistent request of friends and relatives.
The progress which the orchestra is making
and the preparations that under way for the
May Festival are two very important factors in
