WORKERS RIGHTS
UPHELD

Toledo, Ohio.-The court of appeals
has unanimously refused to enjoin
striking electrical workers and pat
tern makers from picketing. Attor-
neys for the employers claimed that
the number of skilled electricians in
this vicinity is so limited that the
anti-union plaintiff could not continue
in business if his strike breakers were
induced by the union to quit their
employment. The court replied:
even if this claim be true, we can
not see how it represents any tenable
ground for modifying the legal rights
of the individual worker through the
instrumentality of an injunction. 1t
is merely one of the risks which all
who are in business must take"

Salvation Army
Needs YOurHeLp

livery army requires sinews Of
war, but the Salvation Army is
one. of the few armies which
have to do both the collecting and
the fighting.
Every effective used in collecting
funds is, for the time, taken away
from relief work. The sooner the
budget is raised, the quicker the re-
lief work can be renewed.
Society saves nothing by postpon-
ing due care of its unfortunates. The
debt somehow has to be paid in full.
There is often a big discount for
cash in advance.
You don't help to carry a costly
overhead charge when you give to
the needy through the Salvation
Army. 1t knows what to do and
does it cheaply and well.
1t knew what to do in France.
Any veteran will tell you how well
it did it.
1t knows equally well what to do
in the trenches against sin and mis-
cry here at home.
Don't make it exhaust so much
good energy in getting the munitions
for its war on poverty and suffering.
Complete its budget today.

Fine Tribute
TOOurSOLdiers

~ HE chief of the General staff
of Switzerland, a good Judge
of armies, since his country
has been surrounded by the finest in
Europe, says:
"The United States troops now
at Coblenz, Germany, make not a
large army-the force is but fif-
teen thousand or so-but it is the
most up-to-date, the best equipped
and the best looking military out
fit that l have ever seen, and I
think it is probably the most
efficient.
This American army on the Rhine,
which Congress wants brought
home without delay, is commanded
by General Allen, who said recently
Of the German indemnity: "The
allies should remember that it is
impossible to get milk and steak
from the same cow"
General Allen was the first COM
mander in the occupied territory to
mitigate severe military rules gov
erning the conduct of German
civilians. He withdrew one after
another rules which made life un-
pleasant to the German population.
The effect of his new rules has been
such that the French and British
commanders have gradually fol-
lowed his example.
No higher tribute to the conduct
of our men could be paid than the
fact that the German government
hus asked that the American forces
be allowed to stay there, and the
French have made the same request,
because France desires the moral
support" of the Americans.
The fact that both our friends
an our late enemies desire our
pseeence il a national asset.

legislative body of nation made free largely through the
leadership and sacrifices Of George Washington will that
there is longer commerciasm in what should be
tonal shrine free at all hours of the dand every day

Many years ago the Ladies' Mount Vernon Association
periodically bought the dapdated home and estate of
Washington and restored it, doing what the nation should
have done 1t is not possible of keep the grounds
buildings and tomb in suitable condition without charge
of kind long they remain in private hands But
private organization should the home and burial
place of Washington 1t should belong the nation and to

closed early each afternoon and not open Sun

been unable to visit Mt Vernon because is closed Sundays
The birthplace of Lincoln also owned by private
association but the ladies who owned it spent thousands OF
dollars upon and then donated it to their country Thus
is honored the memory of the who saved the nation,
while the who made it possible is paid such honors
If Mt. Vernon not be voluntarily turned to
the nation national trust then the nation should

Bolt in Tree

An interesting discovery has been made on
the property OF colonel Hardman known
Willowhurst, near Penn Yam, Pa One day
Gently a large tree on the premises was felled
In the trunk a large wrought iron bolt was found
embedded so solidly that a portion of the wood
around II had to be cut out in order to release
the metal The tree more than four feet
in diameter The bolt found at a point
about twelve feet from the roots. Colonel Hard
man says that he counted on the stump OF the
tree 1877 concentric circles, and that at least
seventy more might have been counted. As each
circle represents n years growth, the tree must
have been standing about 200 years. The bolt
Is round and about eight inches long. One ex-
tremtty is nat and at this end hole had been
drilled into It, From the position Of the bolt
In the center of the trunk II must have been
inserted when the tree was but ssplng. The
bolt 10 believed to have been placed In the tree

Il Matter of
Give and Take

- l. Is well 10 remember tnat lie Is
pretty much matter of Give and
Take.
As the stenographer observes,
"You re not the only pebble on the
beach," or as the festive Al Jolson
puts it, "You can't play every in
strument in the orchestra"
If we go all down along the line
of human relationships and apply
this bit of sense, we will find
1T wad frae NOME a blunder
free US an foolish notion
Come, Newlyweds, give and take,
abate your egocentric mania, remem-
Der it takes two happy people to
make. a happy pair, adapt your
selves, come down a bit, and You III
save yourselves many a pouting
spell and sour moment, many an in
cipient tragedy and budding despair,
many heart twinge and drop of
bitterness.
When you're shopping, give and
take. Don't forget the clerk is
human being and may have her own
particular worm of annoyance eat
ing at her heart.
When you're handling workmen,
give and take. They have their
problems and prejudices, their wills
and obsessions, even as you and your
board of directors.
When you're dealing with the
boss, give and take. He has his
troubles. The wage Garner is not
the only one who is worried about
getting on; the man who pays the
wages has to watch his step also,
and when he falls he breaks not only
his own leg but yours.
When you have an argument with
the street-car conductor, or deal with
the cook, or have to do with the
grocer and the milkman, or are put
out by an unsatisfactory waiter, or
have session with your lawyer, doc.
tor, tailor or real estate agent, give
and take.
Nobody gets happiness from hav-
ing things all his own way. Happi-
ness is not that kind of product.
Happiness is a mutual affair. 1t
usually takes at least two. 1t is a
cooperative enterprise.
And the beauty of it is that it is
the paradox of the world. For di-
vided by two it is larger than when
it is yours alone.

|AnglO-Jap Pact
MenUcetO u. S. :?
rHE British Liberal weekly jour
nal, the London Spectator, gives

THE British Liberal weekly jour
nal, the London Spectator, gives
interesting reasons for its belief
that the military alliance by treaty
between Great Britain and Japan,
which expires next July, should not
be renewed.
1t was made ten years ago to Sc
cure Great Britain, chiefly in India,
against attacks by the secret diplo-
macy and military power of Russia
and Germany:
The reasons against renewing the
treaty are now even stronger, the
Spectator thinks, than they ever
were for making it, because
III Great Britain should side
with japan in Q dispute with tho
United States the British Empire
would end. Canada, Australia
and New Zealand would 60 with
the daughter instead Of with tho
mother.
Even the most wildly imperial
istic and aggressive Of Britons do
not contemplate with pleasure the
blowing Of the British Empire into
smithereens in q single instant.
1--WE all know perfectly well
this would be the result If we went
to war against America, not to
support some rights Of our own,
but in order to help the Japanese.
The moment such q war was de-
clared tho bonds that united US
with our dominions would be
severed"
This view is interesting, expressed
by an organ of British public opinion
like the Spectator, but it deals with
only one side of the case.
Great Britain probably would not
make a treaty that obligated her to
stand with Japan in such a contest.
But Mr.. w. A. Chadbourne, a COM
petent naval student, has pointed
out that in the event of any real
contest with Great Britain we should
probably have to deal with Japan at
the same time. Then it would be true
of us, as Tennyson said of England
fifty years ago, upon her own
might depends her safety"
