LABOR DAY

Labor Day is an industrial epoch
mark. 1t the milepost, as it were,
from which one may observe the pace
in industrial development.
Labor Day first was thought of in
1882. The Knight of Labor, an or
ganizaton combining the idea of zone
bg union" with the ceremonies of a
lodge on the order of Masonry, were
in convention in New York in that
year. The Central Labor union of
New York chose September 5, when
the knights were in session, for a
parade. The order saw the parade
from reviewing stand, and after
wards that particular day was called
Labor Day. Two years later, on mo-
ton made by member of both the
knights and the central union, the lat
ter organization declared the first
Monday in September a holiday and
set to work to obtain legal recognition
in the state of New York.
In 1887, Oregon, New Jersey, Colo
rado, Massachusetts, and New York
made the first Monday in October La
Dor Day. This date later was changed
to the corresponding day in Septem-
ber. After that the idea grew until
now all the states and the federal gov
ernment recognize labor's holiday in
some way. In 1903 an attempt was
made to change the day to May 1, but
it failed. May l is the recognized
holiday of revolutionary labor
throughout Europe. In the United
States it has not received general
recognition, though the idea of taking
May 1 for labor was originated in
America.
Labor Day, of all the holidays law
and liberty have ever sanctioned,
should be the day for workingmen to
announce to the world that, Live or
die, sink or swim, labor is committed
to the task, however herculean it may
be, to find remedy for the outrage.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1922-09-01

No monument can be more lasting,
no memorial more fitting than that
erected by man in the interest of his
sick and aged brother. This thought
is made manifest by the action of the
international Printing Pressmen and
Assistants Union in erecting it's
triplicate institutions at Pressmen' IS
Home, Tennessee, all of which stand
as monuments of love and devotion
to a worthy cause.
History has written its record of
achievement down the fight of time
from the inception of a dream in the
minds eye Of a few, to the present
day elimination of that dream in the
material evidence of home for the
aged and infrm, school for the
development of mind and standards,
and a sanatorium to which refuge may
come the members afflicted with the
white plague.
Pressmen's Home is dependent on
the outside world for but little of its
supplies. The entire property, oc-
cupies over a thousand acres and the
greater part of this is under cultiva-
ton. Improved methods of farming
and the latest efficient farm lmple-
ments bring a yield of grain which
is surprisingly large. The wheat crop
is threshed and ground into flour on
the premises-an efficient little flour
mill having been installed for this pur-
pose.
The large barn, equipped with all
the modern necessities, including a
huge cement silo, shelters the herd
during the winter. All cows are
automatically MIXED and special care
is taken to insure complete santa
ton in everv department of the dairy.
The loft has a capacity for about five
hundred tons of feed, which is amply
sufficient to care for the winter
feeding.
Reservoir Hill is the nucleus for the
very effective water service. The re-
servoir, with a capacity of several
thousand gallons, is built on the very
peak of mountain, giving an enor-
nous pressure for all purposes and
allowing a sufficient amount of water
to be held in reserve for any possible
emergency that NAV arise.

the fire plugs are of such size that
the force of water thrown from the
hose will uproot sturdy tree at a
distance of twenty feet. During the
fire drill it requires the combined
strength of three men to control the
nozzle of the hose. The reservoir is
built of concrete and covered with the
same material, insuring a supply Of
clean, pure and cool spring water.
The Home
The home, nesting snugly far up
against the pine-clad mountain, sur
rounded with smooth, verdant lawns
and dazzling flower beds, fanked with
the foliage of thousand trees and
guarded with stately naples, is in
deed a sight of beauty. No prettier
spot than this sight could have been
chosen.
The building contains over one
hundred rooms, has every modern
convenience, is four stories in height
and has a spacious veranda attached
to the main and second floors. The
halls running to the rear of the
building open out onto the road run
ming along the side of the mountain,
thus forming natural means of es-
cape in case of fire, while the halls
running in the opposite direction open
onto the verandas. The entire home
is steam heated, has it's own kitchen,
bakery and ice plant, and in every
way equals many of the modern
hosteleries in the cities.
The library was designed as a
gathering place and rest room for
the occupants of the home. A large
Fireplace is built into the east wall
and the long winter nights are made
more cheerful with the backlog
cracking and sending forth it's ra-
diant heat from this fireplace. The
room is of such size that it will easily
accommodate a fair sized crowd,
when parties, dances or special enter
tainments are given. History, travel
and fiction may be chosen at will from
the hundreds of books contained in the
book cases lining the library walls.
Indoor recreation is amply provided
for, while the various paths and by
ways winding in and out among the
mountains are never-encing source

either by practical demonstration
courses or through correspondence
Starting some ten years ago with
small preSSroOm equipment and
practically no composing room to
speak of, this school now boasts Of
over a hundred thousand dollars in
machines and pressroom devices. The
manufacturers of the country have
stood Loyalty by, donating and install
ing their products for the betterment
OF the industry as whole; efficiency
devices, supplies and accessories too
numerous to mention have been placed
in "Tech" by progressive firms that
realize the far-reaching Importance of
the work bein~ carried on. To no
small degree is the success of this
institution due to the staunch LOYALTY
of those firms.
The Technical Trade School stands
as a beacon-light to those ambitious
men seeking more knowledge of the
trade and a training to fit them for
the opportunities to come. 1t has
opened the door of opportunity to the
young and ambitious pressroom work
ers as we'll as those who wish to i'm
prove and advance their knowledge
Of presswork in any branch of the
printing industry.
The Sanatorium
Fresh air, comfort and sanitation
are bywords at the Pressmen's Home
Sanatorium. Everything possible has
been, and is being done to maintain
an atmosphere which will be conduc-
tive to mind contentment and bodily
health. Although but in operation a
comparatively short time, this institu-
tion has achieved a remarkable sue
cess. The members who are making
the fight against tuberculosis are
offered every advantage known to
modern science The building has its
own lighting and heating plant, ele-
vator, shower baths, pool room and
library. Books, music and cards are
the principal forms of amusement, al
though many of the boys have en-
barked on various courses Of study
to improve their minds as we'll as
their bodies during their stay at the
Sanatorium.
In building the bedrooms, the latest
approved designs were followed, and
it is possible for any patient to trans
form his warm bedroom into an out
door sleeping porch by simply shift
ing lever. Each room is an outside
room, accommodating only one pa
tient, with large revolving window
to admit the sunlight and the balmy,
invigorating air. The nice treatment
rooms, we'll equipped laboratory, So
cial conveniences and last but not
least, the good wholesome "eats"
combine into one nlace all the es-
sential attributes for the cure and all
the requisites of a frst-class sana-
torium. In design and operation it is
indeed model for similar institutions
and has been followed in its design
and operation by many state and
other medical authorities in their pur-
suit of the best and most effective
methods of combating this scourge.
Pressmen's Home is indeed a place
to be proud of and the unusual in
telligence exhibited by the officers and
members of this organization is re-
sponsible for the thought underlying
the scheme of this great work. Other
associations might well profit by a
study of this we'll worked out plan
and great advance will be made for
universal good when such accomplish
merits are achieved.

NEWARK, OHIO, FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 1922
LABOR. DAY
By Henry Polk Lowenstein

The right to labor is Divine
And, given it's own reward,
Its pay is more than gold refined,
It's joy is of the Lord.
To earn thy bread by sweat of face,
Ordained of God Himself,
Is sweeter far and more of grace,
Than piles of paltry pelf.
And he who works and he who pays,
Should each be just and true,
In looking forward to the days,
When each his task RS through.
But he who hordes mass of wealth,
To save his idle breed
From work and strife and joy of health,
Is weak and poor, indeed!
He soon from care and wealth must part,
And lie beneath the sod;
With clouded mind and shriveled heart
Must answer to his God
The joy of service we'll performed
Is known to only One;
1t starts when perfect plan is formed,
And ends when work is done
And now again on Labor Day,
We pledge our strength to work,
And never cease to laugh and play,
And neer our duty shirk
We stand as ONE, erect and strong,
With hammer in our hand,
To help the weary world along,
And bless our happy land.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1922-09-01

During the war the working
men of the United States dis
charged their duties in a highly
patriotic manner. They met un-
usual conditions in a spirit of
cooperation. They wor e d
against hardships and in diff
cult circumstances. They ad-
justed quickly to new require
ments, shifted their skill to new
lines of production, gave a full
measure of value for their
wages and helped nightly to
win the victory that SO quickly
came to American arms.

of joy to those who wish to avail
themselves of the opportunity to study
nature and its ways.
The furnishings in the library are
of the best; comfort and taste in their
selection was the prime object; the
spacious room is amply illuminated
with appropriate electric table lamps
while the wall and ceiling lights cast
their rays in such close proximity
that this shrine of literary gems re-
semble the splendor of the MONDAY
sunlight.
All in all the home building and it's
surroundings will serve the purpose
for which it was built, and serve it
we'll.
The Technical Trade School
Over half century before the erec-
tion of the big modern Trade School,
the plantation slaves were housed in
a row of cabins, still standing in the
rear of the school building. Even to-
day the strum of the banjo, the
shuffling of darky feet and the happy
negro songs can be heard on occasions
in these same cabins, which now form
the quarters for the negro help at the
home. The cabins with their big
rock chimneys and wide-open fire.
places, were built of rough oak timber
from the surrounding mountains and
all are in state of perfect preserva-
ton.
But how different is the environ
ment in and around Pressmen's Home
now than during that dark period of
our history, some sixty years ago!
Almost on the very site of these slave
cabins has been erected a school,
world-famed for its progressiveness
and which now, in vivid contrast,
sends forth it's message of hope and
good cheer to struggling mankind.
No greater Or far-reachinn achieve
ment could be accomplished than the
erection of this school, for raising the
standard of the individual and for the
betterment of the industry.
Annually several hundred students
from every part of the country enroll
for courses at "Tech." Every branch
of presswork known to modern print
ing science is taught at the school,
