 The Order of Railway Conductors '"The Conductors Brotherhood" in 1868, as a social, fraternal and insur ance organization. In 1890 1t be- came what is known as a protective labor organization, being the last of the four organizations in train ser vice to adopt protective policy. Soon after the change in policy it be- gan collective bargaining with repre- sentatives of the railroad companies through committees chosen by con- ductors on the various lines. It re- ports that now conductors on ninety nine per cent. of the railroads in the On1LeQ states nave contracts W1Ln the companies governing rates of pay.

HOW "AIIIANCE' DIFFERS
 FROM s'ENTEfNTE CORDIALE."

Washington. May 2-The difference between an "aIliance' and "entente cordiale" is all in how you say it, ac- cording to Senator Reed (Dem.). of Missouri. one of the Senate's most formidable foes of oreign treaties.
 If you say it with flowers it's an entente cordiale," according to Reed, while If you say it with force it's an alliance
 An entente is an agreement couch ed in gentle terms. while an alliance is the same thing couched in harsh "One is no more binding than the oth- er The sole bond in each is the pledged faith of the signatory nation No bond therefore, is stronger than the weight of the nations pledged word"

Day Nursery?

eve are accustomed to think of the Day Nursery as being primarily a help to the mothers-this time, however, it was a call from 8 father which think will interest you. This man, an Italian, recently lost his wife after an operation which the doctors had thought would not be a serious one. She died leaving five children, the oldest a little girl of twelve and the youngest a boy of two. The two younger children, two and four years of age, are coming to the Nursery and the father is struggling to keep his little family together. He does not want to put too much work on his oldest child so he does the washing himself at night, after his work, I called on them today and found the place surprisingly clean and seven children playing in the little kitchen and the father away at work.
 One of our mothers recently deserted by her husband and obliged to have help from the city has been enabled through the Nursery to become self supporting and to keep her two boys of six and two with her. Had 1t not been for the Nur- sery, she would have been obliged to put them in an in stitution.
 We have many such cases where the mother through death or desertion is left alone and the Day Nursery is all that stands between her and com plete separation from her chiI- dren- It is to these mothers that the Day Nursery is the greatest boon."
 Shall the work O. the Day Nursery continue? It IS the size of our gifts to Cou.mdnity Chest that will answer that question.
