ExPLOITERS MAKE WAR
ON THE WORKERS

Winnipeg. = The lockout of the
printers and allied trades over the A.
hour week dispute continues. The re-
ference of the dispute to the provin-
cial industrial commission has so far
been barren of results and the commits
sion, in announcing deadlock, seems
practically to have thrown up its hands
though its chairman is still trying to
find basis for further negotiations.
Thinking, not growth, makes man
hood. Accustom yourself, therefore, to
thinking. Set yourself to understand
whatever you see or read. To join
thinking with reading is one Of the
first maxims, and one of the easiest op-
erations.-Isaac Taylor.
