| INFORM CINILITY
By f. 4. WILKER

TO BID welcome to the world when
 everything seems to be going against you, is to exhibit the right sort of courage and to show yourself capable of overriding difficulties.
 Though firebrands may be thrown across your pathway and backbiting tongues aSsail you, if you still remain alnlable and courteous, you will emerge from the ordeal unscathed
 tivility and all that It implies gives you the staying strength to surmount obstacles and to press forward in all kinds of weather
 Scowls, frowns and short answers very frequently make of the talented and gifted. sorrowful toilers, while, on the other hand, urbanity and suavlty elevate men and women of moderate attachments to power and affuence
 Civility comments itself to people who know not it's name. but recog- nize It when they see it. The grabbed old boor and the proud youth are now and again arrested by its soft answer and smiling face, and even the rude vagabond will stop q moment when 1t crosses his path and stare at 1t In open-eyed wonderment.
 In some subtle way civility touches hearts and knits mankind closer to- gether, yet, despite this fact, 1t has long way to go and a great deal of hard work to do before it can over take the masses and make them un- derstand it's true worth.
 To those who are just starting careers, and especially to the young, good manners are as essential to their success as good commendations
 Indeed, pollteness may be said to be the better thing of the two, for the reason that 1t builds character, and makes 1t imposing in the eyes of oth- CTS.
 There Is no time in ones life that courtesy of behavior In the treatment of others fails to win recognition.
 The employee who Is uniformly civil, considerate of his or her em- ployer, and thoughtful of associates as well, is usually the first to win pro- motion.
 If you will think back, study cause and effect, you will find as you reflect that the greater number of failures in life had their beginning in incivility. and that those who today are conspic- uously successful in the arts. profes- sions and industries were in their be- ginning, and are now. habitually courteous in words and acts.

SPLENDIDLY MANAGED
FINE SPIRIT SHOWN

Following IL the comment Of a cit
teen. who was in position to com
prehend the admirable work which
was done by those having IN charge
the arrangements for our Fourth of
July celebration, and II comedies with
tho general opinion expressed:
Too much praise cannot be given
the several chairmen OF the different
committees who so wonderfully ham
died their part Of the Fourth of July
celebration.
Each one eXcrted every effort to
carry through TO successful end
Ing each distinct number on the pro-
gram.
Every event was nearly on the
time scheduled, SO nearly that at no
time was the large gathering Of peo-
pie kept waiting but few minutes.
That II was safe and sane
Fourth Is evidenced by the fact that
not one arrest was made by the po-
lice, and not one call for an ambu-
lance was made. although Mr.. Plum
mer was in waiting all day with his
ambulance ready for emergency.
"A fine demonstration of the good
sportsma nship Of the crowd was
shown. when at the afternoon ball
game, no place had been held for the
band TO sit In the bleachers. no one
having taken IL upon their shoulders
TO hold the place, and naturally the
fans took the seats, Mr.. r. f. Beane
simply made a good natured request
of them explaining the mistake of the
management. asking them to kindly
give way TO the band, and over forty
people arose and showed the fine
spirit that makes success wherever
such cooperation is manifest.
TT IL well to advertise such condi-
tons. It's boost for Augusta"

UNIONS THE THING, EVEN WHEN JUNGLE
 SAM" IS EMPLOYER
Congress Hears From Workers and Back-Tracks on Employees
 Bonus

The union is the thing, even when Uncle sam IS the employer,
 The Federal Employees Unoin has just demonstrated the truth of tha. maxim. When the first appropriation bill of this session was reported to the House the other day 1t was found that no provision was made for the $40 bonus which Uncle Sans workers who receive less than $2,5oo per year have been receiving for several years. To emit the bonus would mean that all these workers would suffer a cut
 in wage, equivalent to $2o per month, This would involve d reduction in Government pay rolls of about $3o,- 100000 a year.
 The moment the appropriation bill became public property the union an nounccd it would make a nation wide campaign 10 restore the bonus and at the same time to give the Federal employees as near a 100 per cent or eanization as possible.
 The unions decision was flashed over the country, and in every city where there was a group of Federal employees things began to happen. Letters and tclegrams were started toward the Capitol at Washington, and there was kick" in every com munication.
 Within about IS hours after the bombardmcnt began the committee on appropriations ran up the white flag Congressman Martin Madden, of Chicago, chairman of the commit tee, announced that he and his col leagues never intended to cut the wages of the workers. They had omitted the bonus because they cx- pcctcd the Lchlbach rcclaSsihcation bill would be passed before the end of the fiscal year, and that measure made the bonus a part of the workers basic salaries.
 Of course, it is little strange that Mr. Madden did not say something like that when he first brought i'll his bill, but the Federal employees are SO delighted over their victory that they are not disposed 10 split hairs They all recognize however, that the union is the thing.

ARBITRATION BY FORCE HARD HIT
 BY AUSTRALIANS
While Employers Here Seek to Se- cure It Antipodes Knock
 It Out

Washington, Jan. I5.-Nhile cm- ployerS III this country are urging in dustrlal courts to stop strikes and set wages, Australian organized workers are fighting this system, according to trade union publications from that country received at A. F of l.. head quarters.
 The opposition has become so strong that the federal and state gov crnments are attempting to patch Of the dccayed hulk and induce the workers 10 again take passage.
 At d recent conference, held in Melbourne, the federal and state pre- miers proposed to establish a com- bined court of commonwealth and state judges to determine the basic wage, the number ol hours to be worked and to act as a court of ap- peal from all other industrial tribun- als.
 The Australian trade unionists do not respond 10 the suggestion, and the Australian Worker, published in Sydney, New South Wales, issue of November 10, calls the scheme "more horsehair and ermine" 'The state premiers and the com monWealth prime minister" says this paper, 'nlay tinker with arbitration as they please. They may create an other court and appoint additional judges at high salaries to fix low wages for the worker. "I labor looks on quite unConc ncerned. It has formed it's own plans and they are in no way connected with horse hair interpretations of justice.
 "The fact of the matter is, the sys- lcm of legal arbitration is founded on gross anomaly.

Her name was Willie, for she was a little Southern girl and Willie is not an unusual name at all for little Southern girl.
 She had a mother and a father, a twin sister named Jessie and two brOtherS
 Now, Willie had been asked to re- cite a piece for the school entertain ment and gladly Willie accepted. She was thrilled to think that she would get up before the whole school and the friends of all the pupils and the par ents and relatives of all the pupils and would recite before them all.
 What a magnificent audience she proud of her-and she would be so proud of herself. She was not the least nervous.
 She knew she would not be stage struck.
 It would be delightful to get up on the school stage and stand there all by herself while the big assembly hall would be filled with people.
 Just think how many pairs of eyes would be gazing upon her! She was particularly pleased to think that the eyes of her father would be watching her.
 Her father was noted judge. He would be proud to see how famous Willie was becoming-already speak ing a fine piece at the school enter tainment-and she the youngest one in the school to be chOseni
 She would pick out very funny piece to say. She would let no one
