THE OLD OYSTER BUCKET

The old oaken bucket has ceased
to engender theme for the poet. or
song for the music; the fire-plug and
hydrant and engine house tender

constructed of paper, that, bangles

learned to regard it cute little ca
per, to fool my old women who likes
'em, you know. How fondly cling
to my six little pickles my grocer tied
up in a sycamore tray-I gaze at the
clouds while the vinegar trickles and
spots up my clothes with stain that

READY FOR NEW
YORK FARM BLOC

The national farm bloc conceived
and organized by the American Farm
Bureau Federation in Washington,
seems to be a growing inspiration to
the states where similar blocs are
forming, perhaps unconsciously, but
none the less certainly. Broad Wis
toned men have come to see that the
operations of the farm bloc in Wash
ington have had much to do with the
rising tide of returning prosperity,
and SO they see the possibility of
beneficial effect if the states come to
follow the national example There
is distinct trend toward the farm
bloc idea in the state of New York,
where II is thought such a move
might have the effect of offsetting
the line of cleavage between the
country districts and the great me-
tropolis. New York City for years
has contended it has been ruled from
Albany by country legislators who
know nothing of the requirements of
city life. The friction has been so in
tense that there have sprung up
movements even looking to the form
ing of the separate state of Manhat-
tan. he New Yorker pays the major
proportion of the taxes of the state
and yet he feels he has little, il any
voice, in legislation even considering
the broad city charter granted by the
state. The city man, however, is not
blind to the needs of agriculture and
stands ready to further the welfare
of the faremr The farm bloc idea
in the Empire State is likely to bring
about a mutually beneficial compro-
mise. When all is said and done,
the spirit of tolerance invariably OPP
crates for the benefit of the people.

Tipping is Anti-American,
Declares Mrs. John D., Jr.
BY HARRY HUNT
NEA Service Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-Mrs. John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., daughter-in-law of the
richest man in the world, is waging a
national fight against
Tipping!
American and undemccratic."
The interviewer squirmed uncomfort-
ably. He had just tried to tip the maid
for ushering him into Mrs. Rockefeller's
room.
1T becomes terrific drain particu-
larly on persons travelling, she went on,
and those living in hotels. One travel
ing man recently told me that he had
to pay out in tips each month sum
equal tC' more than half his salary!
But even worse than the money fac
tor involved is the moral factor. The
tipping system establishes and maintains
a false unwholesome relationship be-
tween servant or employee and the per-
son served
Hopes Movement Spreads.
So Mrs. Rockefeller began her cam
paign against tipping when the Grace
Dodge Hotel, a Y. w. c, a. hcstelry
for women was opened here. AS chair
man of the Housing Committee Of the
National Board Of the association. she
placed an absolute ban on the giving
or receiving of gratuities.
1t worked so well that Mrs Rookie
Teller hopes the movement will spread
to hotels throughout the country.
at is our particular hope that by
proving TO hotel managers generally that
it is possible to abolish tipping and still
run a large modern hotel, we may set
in molten n general anti-tipping move
ment that will eventually end the tip
ping practice-at least in this country"
she said.
Mrs. Rockefeller appeared determined
as she said it. A rather long, slightly
aquiline. somewhat sharpish nose; a
wide, thin-lipped mouth; a square-cut
jaw indicate ability to stand firmly by
her decisions. Narrowed eyes between
puckered brows, give an expression half
smiling, half quizzical.
Although of rich materials, there was
nothing obtrusive or striking in her
dress. Her hat was of brown velvet,
with brim of moderate width, around
which was a pleated band of brown in
tertwined with gold leaves.
But She Follows Custom.
1t was her jewelry, rather than her
gown or hat. that bespoke the wearer's
wealth. On her right hand sparkled an

is distributing, viz: The Pensacola
Creosoting Company's recent develop
ment.
Here is an industry which is distribut-
ing hundreds of dollars in Pensacola
weekly, through its payrolls; and tens
upon tens of thousands of dollars an
nually, through its purchases of raw
materials used in the production of its
finished products. And aside from
these two items the wonderful adver-
Using which Pensacola is receiving as
a center for the production of creosoted
products of all descriptions.
1t is very true that the industry of
creosoting wood block paving was es-
tablished here by the people who now
constitute Pensacola Creosoting Com
pany. q. But it is also true that for a
number of years the industry existed
only in name, practically no output Of
creosoted wood goods having been pro-
duced by the plant since the contract for
the wood block with which the streets
Of Pensacola are paved, was finished.
Approximately a year ago, however, an
entire change was effected in the INDUS
try, even to the changing of the name.
New blood was infused into the organi-
cation and through this INFUSION the
Pensacola's most important industries.
Nor has the revitalized industry
chained itself to the star of single pro-
duct. as was the case before its reor-
ganization. On the contrary, IN add
ton to the manufacture and treatment
Of paving blocks, enormous contracts
are being executed for creosote treated
cross arms for telephone and telegraph
wires are being booked by the company
and creosoted piling, fence posts cross
ties. bridge timbers and lumber pro
ducts for dozen other purposes are
being manufactured for both dcmestlc
and export demand.
As a matter of fact, c. H, Sexton
vice-president and general manager OF
the company in an interview with
representative of The Journal stated
that if not another order was booked
for his product he has sufficient ousl-
ness booked to run his plant fun ca
pacity until next June.
However, he is not declining 10 doom
