HANG ON

Hang on Cling onl No matter what
they say
Rush onl Sing onl Things will come
your way.
Sitting down and whining never helps
bit
Best way to get there is by keeping
up your grit.
Don't give up hoping when the ship
goes down.
Grab spar or something-just refuse
to drown.
Don't think you are dying just
because your re hit.
Smile in face o danger and hang on
to your grit
We must make the dreams that we
dream come true,
Not drag with the drones, but train
with the few
That turn their dreams into fact

We are taking no stand. for against the strik-
ers but we are of the opinion that the labor people
will lose more than they gain in public opinion,
everytime they permit their members to nfict dam
age upon property, or do violence in any way.
However sound their claims may be. the general
rank and file of the people not going to sanction
anything like that Doing bodily injury to people
employed by the railroad damaging property
will not get them anywhere. 1t may have its effect
toward intimdatng those who take their Job. but
it will have no good effect the minds OF the pub

Apologizing for the appearance OF the paper rs
a habit that some editors get into and we believe
it is one of the worst that they can form. We note
the Canadian Record is of the worst at this OF
any paper we have our exchange table, and 1t
is useless too for the Record is always most cred
table sheet and worth of place in the homes OF the
people of that community We say it is habit, and
we would that our good Brother LOOMS would cut
it out If the Record is little below what you
would consider ideal, say nothing about it. Many
hundreds of your readers will likely not notice the
apparent failure and in fact the very issue that you
sometime think is a failure may be looked upon by
lot of folks as a triumph This has happened in
our experience in the newspaper business and we
are sure it has in every mans life who has had to
do with the newspaper work
