Roye or Margaret Young feel bash
full; and, moreover, he knew how to
it seemed, was eating cake. All in
all, he was as welcome among the
lighter feminine sex as a copy of The
Daily News.
Alfred finished his dinner quickly.
He hurriedly washed, used a safety
razor-when rough towel with some
cold cream would have been suffici-
ent, and started to doll up, for it was
to be large night" He wore his
noisy shirt, parted his hair in the mid
die, plastered it back with fat, and
then put little salt on to make the
people think he had dandruff. The
new style collar, with the long ends,
was adjusted carefully, and the cute
little tie, which, from the distance,
looked like, dirt spot, was put on.
Then the blue trousers, which had a
crease sharp enough to slice loaf
of bread; the russell shoes, and the
tight-ftting coat, which gave full ex.
preston to his Juno-like shape.
AS he neared the main entrance to
the hall he looked up and down the
street to see that there was no girl he
knew in sight-he would not pay
any extra freight, even though it
was only ''two bits" Safely inside he
met Charley, Bob, Jack, Frank, Red
and the old crowd; all financiers on
plugged nickels like himself Then
the cut-up got started. Instead of say
ing several, he said "severiaI;" in
stead of grand opera, he said grand
uproar;;" when he wanted to be en-
phatic he said Absolutely" or ''posi-
lutely," and he believed that the most
effective way to put you at ease was
to say, "Sit down and make yourself
uncomfortable" when asked the day
of the week the quick answer would
be: This is Wednesdays day."

HE MADE A HIT.

1t was getting on to o'clock and
Alfred was stamping a number of
letters, says the Tablet. With fever
ish haste he was performing his last
duties, as he wanted to get home
early, brush up a bit, and go to the
dance in Paree Hall.
The girls in the Office were "kid-

would not break too many hearts in
the evening, or would not strain him.

Alfred was about nineteen. Four
years previously he had graduated
from grammer school. His parents
did not insist upon his continuing his
education, because Charley, friend,
could get him fine job down in Wall
street, with one of the biggest houses
in the country. Sine then, the firm
had raised his salary twice, so that

muses. he was making anywhere from

son. He dressed SO neatly; he looked
SO manly, and he was fine Catholic.
HE goes to the 10 o'clock Mass every
Sunday"
He seldom gave to the collections,
but how could he? He was only max

week; had to go to three dances,
give one evening to pool, one to the
movies, had to buy fat for his hair,
and, anyway, mother and father are
good contributors" But he was UP
on his religion. He knew that Friday
was fast day; what the pastors
name was; he could tell a catechism
from a potato, and he was seen often
around the church-usually before
and after the 10 o'clock Mass.
Among the girls in the neighbor
hood he was quite popular. At par

UNION POETIC PRESIDENT
MAKES PUBLIC STATEMENT
REGARDING RAILROAD STRIKE

President c. X. Gray OF the Union
Pacific Railroad in letter dated
July 10 to Vice-President Calvin,
declares the attitude Of the y. T. sys'
tenn in relation to the present shop
craft strike as follows:
New York, July 16, 1922.

System.
Dear Sir: ,
For the information Of the general
public from whom inquiries have
reached me as well as for the assur-
ance OF our shop employees and those
who are entering our service every
day, and to the end that our former
employees may thoroughly under
stand our position, | wish you would
communicate the contents OF THIS
letter to the public through the press
and TO all of our officials so that the
public and each former employee
shall be personally advised in regard
therto:
Chairman Ben w. Hooper, OF the u.
s. X. X. Labor Board, July 1, 1922,
issued the following statement re-
gardless of any question OF the right
OF the men TO strike. The men who
take the strikers place are merely &C
cepting the wages and working con-
ditions prescribed by a government
tribunal and are performing public
service. They are not accepting the
wages and working conditions which
an employer Is trying to impose, for
this reason public sentiment and full
government power will protect the
men who remain in their positions
and new men who may come in sub
sequently. The Labor Board has de-
clared that the rules and working con.
ditlons under which the mechanical
forces we're working before the strike
are still in full force and effect. They
cannot be changed except by an agree
ment between our employees and the
management of the system, or in
event of failure to reach material
agreement by our employees, not the
former employees, the management ex-
parte or jointly referring the disagree
ment of the u. s. Il. Il. Labor Board
for decision. Therefore since our form
eremployees left our service OF their
own free will and accord, thereby
ceasing to be employees of this sys-
tenn, the public and those who remain
ed loyal to our service and those who
have entered the service since the
strike, as we'll as those who are en-
tering our employ daily, may rest
assured that the management of the
system will use every resource at its
command to keep faith with them and
unqualinedly pledges itself to make no
settlement OF the strike which will in
any manner whatsoever deprive them
of their rights or jobs which they
have gained in accordance with our
shop craft agreement and the declar-
alton of the Labor Board. The only
way that any one of our former en-
ployees may enter our service is as a
new employee and the opportunity to
even thus enter the service is grow
ing less day by day, owing to the fact
That s.our forces are rapidly increas
ing.
The public will keep in mind the fact
that this strike is not against this
railroad system but that 1t is against
the decision of an agency, our govern
mont Therefore the strike simply
resolves itself into the question
