GIRL RESERVE MEETING

The Girl Reserves met Friday noon
at the high school to discuss plans for
sending a delegate to the summer
conference at Hollister. Although the
club is only about two months old,
over fifty girls have joined. They are
anxious to send some one to the con-
ference this summer-some one who
will bring back enthusiasm and pep to
the organization next fall.
The Girl Reserves of the Y. W. G.
A. stand not only for the social de-
velopment of the high school girl, but
also for the mental, spiritual and
physical growth. The movement was
started about three years ago, for a
". w. C. A. organization for girls of
high school age. Already there are
over three hundred thousand members
The girls in many clubs in nearby
towns are working to win Girl Re-
serve rings. These are given to them
for reaching certain standards in
school scholarship, health and service.
The girls of the Monett high school
club are expecting to begin working
on these standards very soon.
Although it is high school club
the girls are not expecting to stop
their activity with the closing of
school and are planning several good
times for this summer.

Catholic Standard and Times, In a
leading editorial which exposes the
uofairness of those who talk about
"the right of the public" In strike
times, but never refer to the duties
of the publisc when no strike is on.
"The public, OF course, resents the
Inconvenience TO which ii is put by
reason of the strikes. II demands
consolidation of its rights. But what
does il do to secure the rights of the
workingman ?" asks the editor.
rs IL at all concerned that the
laborer receive his just hire, as long
as it enjoys peace and well being :
The object of society is to protect the
riphts of all, and to see that no in
justice is done TO anyone. If it neg
lects its duty it need not be surprised
that the injured party will try to
secure his own rights regardless of
the welfare of society.
"lf the community at large per
sistently tolerates abuses and wrongs
against any section of its members,
that section, in seeking relief from
these abuses and worngs, does not

"The public must realize that If
labor has duties towards society, So
ciety also has obligations towards
labor. The public cannot repudiate
its duties and, nevertheless, insist on

of the worker to fair share of the

If an attempt Is made 10 crush
unionism simply because a few unions
are mismanaged and some crimes are
tfaceable to so-called union leaders,
as Is the case in Chicago, it will
drive all union labor together in self

labor market will bring about dan
gerous and costly reaction when the
market changes. And, on the other
hand, If honest, law-abiding unions
are upheld and respected they will
help TO drive out crime among their

wage disputes will help to insure
peace and steady work when return
ing prosperity provides jobs for all
potential workers.

HOW FREEDOM COMES

. The world now pretty well
. agrees that, after all, its great

. greatest freedom to all men.
. While definite gains may be

. business, yet, in business as Ia
. government, our experience has
. shown Us that democracy IS
. the safest road, and In spite Of
. all its weaknesses this is the
. dominant political faith Of to-

. freedom. Freedom is not just
. an eagle screaming on a erag,
. as we used TO be told at Fourth
. Of July celebrations.
. The fundamental basis Of free

. their income over their outgo.
. No man is really free If he does
. not have more than enough with
. which TO purchase the neeessar-

. children, and himself. Under a
code of ethics which requires
. business TO sell cheaper and
cheaper, the necessaries of life
will be more easily obtained,
and gradually the so-eaiied lax

and more available for less and

modern open shop eonundrum but
then known as the mo discrimination
clause"
This agreement had tattered eX-
istence for about four years, during
which the result was more disastrous
to employers than TO wOfkmen be
cause there was no stability OF wage
rate and no employer knew what the
other was paying, and bidding for
jobs was a continual race doNnwafds.
Granite cutters had 10 impose this
obnoxious method on those erring
employers to teach them the lesson
they deserved, and IL worked we'll,
so much so that the writer of this
even was invited by the Executive
Officers of the Employers Assoein-
ton To enter into real constructive
and collective agreement and as an
inducement offered the opposite ex-.
trsme from the mo discrimination
method to have a provision In the
new agreement that employers would
hire nothing but good standing mem
bers of the Granite Cutters Assocla-
ton and the latter would only work
for members Of the Employers Ar
ISOLATION. The offer was tempting,
but Executive Officers of the Cutters
Association refused IL. for In the
meantime a number of men from the
stone sheds had gone into business
and whom the employers would not
admit TO membership because they
had helped the man behind the ham
mer to defeat the obnoxious purposes
of the Employer Association.
We stood by our guns as the say
ing goes and won. This experience
Is herein noted because the non-union
or so-called open shop plan had been
given a few years experience and was
found to be ruinous both to the man
in business and the men he employed.
The moral of this tale Is that men
who do the work are entitled to have
something TO say about the rates and
conditions under which they would
be employed.

With the appointment of special committees for the great fall cere- monial of Fl Zaribah temple, Mystic Shrine, scheduled for Oct. 30, all the arrangements for what is planned as the livest and most interesting cere- ,monial we're held in Phoenix have been completed.
 Dr. Nelson C. Bledsoe, whose home is in Bisbee, attended the states ses- sion of the temple and promised a large class from the southern part of the state.
 The nobles who attended the con- yention of directors in Kansas City last spring had an unusual opportunity to view all the paraphernalia for the initiatory work of the organization, and number of new stunts will fea- ture this ceremonial.
 It is said that many of the old stunts have been discarded so that under the supervision of the director and his assistants the fall ceremonial promises to surpass all former efforts in novelty, pep and originality.
 The old Shriner who may have be- come indifferent to the usual stunts will find much to enjoy in the install lation of the new devices that will contribute hugely to his satisfaction and appreciation.
 The dinner this year will begin at .5:30 o'clock in the ofternoon and con- ,tinue until g. It will be under tine di- rection of competent chefs.

ONION STATION DEPOT
 BE BUILT AT PHOENIX

Phoenix, Sept. 30.-Arizona con-
 tractors will be given every opportun-
 ity to enter bids for the construction
 of the union. station to be erected here,
 according to assurances given the Ari- zona Industrial Congress by the San
 ta Fe and Arizona Eastern railroads which are to build the new depot.
 Construction of the new union sta ,tion is expected to be one of the lar
 gest building jobs of the year in Ari-
 zona, and builders of the state will
 be offered every advantage in pre- pairing bids for the work. Similarly, Arizona materials will be used as much
 as possible in the structure.
 Officials of the two roads have in- formed the Industrial Congress they expect a number of. proposals from contractors of this state, and that they see no reason why the contract should not be given in Arizona instead of outside. The contract will be let to the lowest bidder, of course, and awarded on a strictly business basis. but the railroads feel that Arizonians, being on the ground and having their organizations near at hand, have . good chance to be successful. " The new union station, exclusive of tracks, etc., will cost in the neighbor- hood of a half a million dollars, and the total investment will be well above that figure. The contract will be hand led jointly by R. P. Ball, chief engi- neer of the Santa Fe Coast Lines, at Los Angeles, and J. c. Mcclure, chief engineer of the Arizona Eastern at Tucson. Bids are now being received at the office of MT. Ball, and will be opened by him and Mir. Mcclure Oct ober 18th. It is understood the con tract will carry time limit for com pletion, and provide for the beginn- ing of construction at an early date.
 F. L. Hanna, assistant general freight and passenger agent of the Santa Fe, with headquarters here has informed the congress that the two roads hope to have as many bids as possible from Arizona contractors, and named several who were at work on In addition to plans and specifications sent to a number of in dividual builders by the railroads when bids were first called for, the Indus trial Congress recently called the at tention of the contractors and builders organizations to the station contract expressing the hope that the work can be kept in Arizona.
