the Sea-" When the display was
fired it proved very disappointing to
the thousands of people present as
well as to the committee. The COM
mittee had to undergo much criticism
and good natured kidding because the
battle feature never showed up at all.
The committee was "sore" and refus-
ed to pay the contract price, and so
notified the American-Italian Fire
works Company, which company had
the contract for furnishing the dis
play.
The company Immediately express
ed it's regret and gave as the reason
for the disappointment that they had
engaged an expert highly recommend
ed to them for firing the display, and
whom they learned later was really
not adept at handling displays al
though an expert maker of fireworks.
They asked permission to repro
duce the display here as originally
contracted for. This the committee
agreed to and fixed Saturday night
of next week as the time. Arrange
ments have been completed with the
conservancy people for firing the dis
play on the river bank.
1t will be fired on the west bank
about the foot of Wayne avenue, and
a splendid view can be had from the
east side all the way from the High
street bridge to the Black street
bridge.
A band concert will also be fur
nished in connection with the display
giving the people of the community
real Saturday evening treat. The
display will be fired after the stores
close along about $50 o'clock. And
something real big can be looked for
as the fireworks company is anxious
to redeem its reputation and gain
a footing in this vicinity for future
business.

OLD AGE PENSIONS
State Federation Of Labor
and Fraternal Order
of Eagles
Conducting Campaign in
Ohio for Initiated Bill and
Constitutional A m e n d.
ment on Subject.

The Ohio State Federation of La
Dor is sending all of it's affiliated or
ganizations this week initiative petit
tions for an amendment to the con-
stitution of Ohio, and for an old age
pension bill. The local organizations
are expected to circulate the petitions
for signatures of voters in the coun-
ties in which they are located.
The circulation of petitions for a
constitutional amendment was de-
cided upon by the State Federation
officers after they had agreed on the
terms of an old age pension bill and
realization was had that funds
might not be provided by the legisla-
ture in sufficient amount to pay old
age pensions.
The constitutional amendment
makes it mandatory upon the general
assembly of Ohio to pass old age
pension legislation. 1t further pro-
vides that the legislature shall pass
inheritance and income tax laws, and
that the states portion thereof shall
be set aside to pay old age pensions
The amendment does not absolve the
Legislature from the duty of providing
by appropriation for the funds to pay
old ana napciooc ;f +ba r+o+a,e ~Laxo
of the inheritance and income taxes
are insufficient
The initiative measure for old age
pensions will require the signatures
of slightly over 10000 voters or three
per cent of the total vote cast at the
last election for governor. These
signatures must, under the law, come
from at least forty-four counties of
the state to the amount of one-half
the designated percentage required
for the state as whole.
The petition for a constitutional
amendment will require over 100000
signatures, or ten per cent of the total
vote cast for governor at the election
two years ago. Five per cent of these
signatures must come from at least
each of Al counties.
The Fraternal Order of Eagles is
working in cooperation with the
State Federation of Labor for old age
pensions and aiding in the circulation
of the petitions.
The Ohio State Federation of Labor
is endeavoring to finance the cam
paign by the sale of old age pension
stamps. The unions have been asked
to pledge their memberships to the
purchase of these stamps monthly un-
til each member has purchased a suf-
icient number to fill small book con
tanning space for 10 stamps, and to-
falling a cost of $100 to each mem

COOP. CIGARS
Made in Cincinnati, Fast
Making Good

Within the past week, the semi
annual stockholders meeting of the
Cigar Makers Cooperative Co., of
Cincinnati, was held to hear the re-
port of the board of directors on the
business for the past six months.
The report showed that the sales
of "Cigmaco" and "CCC" cigars has
been steadily increasing from month
to month since they started in business
over two years ago, and that the
cigars are winning favor with smok-
ers, not only in Cincinnati but
throughout the states of Ohio, Indi-
ana and Kentucky.
A reasonable dividend was declared
on all outstanding stock and the rest
of the profits were placed in the
building fund, so that some day The
Cigar Makers Cooperative Co. will
have home of their own.
Two resolutions were submitted by
the board of directors which were con-
Cured in by the members present by
an almost unanimous vote, showing
unity and solidarity within the ranks
of the Coop.
A feeling of enthusiastic determin-
alton was ever prevalent and will
ingness to make the Cooperative
more wonderful success than ever,
leading the way Off other groups of
working people to get from under the
autocratic domination of bosses and
assisting in making the "open shop"
drive thing of the past.
Reports were received from Cigar
Makers Co-operatives of Tampa, Fla,
Newark, N. j.; Milwaukee, Wis; Chi
cago, St. Louis and Louisville, KY,
which showed that these firms were
also on the high road to success.
In the election for directors, John
Witte, Henry Huenemeyer, Fred.
Leibenthal and Fred. Geo. Schnable
were reelected. They with President
Dale Reed, will be held responsible
for the conduct of the Cigmaco and
CCC cigar factory for the next six

LYRIC AND GEM
THEATRES
Adopt Open Shop Plan
Statement By Stage En-
ployes' Union, Local
No. 1876

Elsewhere in this paper will be
found an ad calling your attention to
the fact that the Lyric and Gem thea
tres of this city are unfair to Local
1856, |. A. T. S. E. and NJ P M. o.
of u S. and Canada.
Both theatres in question have re-
fused to employ union operators for
projection of motion pictures. The
Gem theatre has been unfair to Local
1876 for more than two years, having
fatty refused to enter into an agree
ment from the time motion picture op-
orators were first organized. Various
committees have called on the man
agement in an effort to get an agree
ment signed, without results. The
theatrical stage employees and motion
picture operators feel that they have
gone the limit in an effort to settle
the dispute, and are now asking the
support of the public.
The Lyric theatre case is somewhat
different in that the management
signed an agreement last September
to employ only union men and also
abide by the conditions as set forth
in the agreement This they did
until July of this year when they de-
cided to run only two days week.
Now Local 1856 did not expect the
atre to pay full weeks salary for
only two days work, and at the time
the agreement was signed provisions
were made to take care of such cases
should they arise. The management
had, and still has, the right to take
advantage of the two-day rate, which,
by the way, is less than any surround
ing town of more than ten thousand
population The Lyric management
has wilfully broken its agreement
with the operators and replaced them
with non-union men. The local union
has done everything in its power to
bring about settlement of the case.
Each time we have been met with a
very cool reception. The stage en-
ployes and motion picture operators
are now asking the support of the
public in an effort to induce the man
agement of these theatres to play fair
with organized labor.

COSSACKS WITHDRAWN

Buffalo, N. Publicity of meth
DDS employed by state cossacks sent
in here by Governor Miller because of
the street car strike, has resulted in
their withdrawal.
In a resolution to the city council,
the Buffalo Central Labor Union
charged that the governor ignored
city officials and denied citizens a
peaceful investigation of the strike
which is provided for in the law ere
ating the state industrial commission.
An anti-union attitude on the part
of the company is the cause of the
strike. The company is controlled
by Philadelphia interests which own
the street car lines of that city and
have established therein company

UNKNOWN LAD GIVEN FITTING
RITRTAI

A lad of 10, giving his name as
Stanley Corey and his home as some
where in Wisconsin, was taken seri-
ously i'll at Hoquiam, Washington,
about three weeks ago. He stated at
the hospital where he was taken by
the kind hearted people of the city,
that he had wandered from his Wis
consin home about eleven years ago,
and was very anxious to get in touch
with his mother Every effort was
made by his new found friends to
| locate her, but she had either moved
away or his fevered mind could not re-
call the correct address. He died with
the sacred name of mother upon his
| lips, and typical of western sentiment,
where it is said a touch of nature,
more than anything else in the world,
makes men kin, the good people of
the city gave the unknown and penni-
less boy a fitting Christian burial.
Now the Wisconsin Club of the state
of Washington is endeavoring to To-
cate the lads relatives and let them
know that even among strangers the
stricken boy was among friends and
everything that could be done for him
was cheerfully performed.
Made known through the Washing
tonian that the young man was dying
without relatives near him and crying
for the mother from whom he ran
away when but lad of eight years,
scores of mothers offered themselves
as substitute before death stilled
the feverish lips. When death came
these mothers opened their purses and
saw to it that this unknown boy, liv-
ing his last moments among total
strangers, was given the same con-
sideration as though he had lived his
life time among them. A profusion of
flowers were banked upon his casket,
and tears, as warm, perhaps, as would
have welled in the eyes of his real
mother, dimmed the vision of those
good women as they viewed the life
less form for the last time. Every
last detail of fitting burial was seen
to by these good people of that west
ern city, even to an appropriate mon
ument, which was donated by a Port
land monument company.
| Now the press of Wisconsin is ask
ed to spread this word that a mother
may learn, perhaps, that her hayward
] boy who has been lost but never out
of her heart for these many years,
has gone home to his reward, thinking
of her to the end, and that his body
rests in an honored grave in Wood
lawn cemetery, Hoquaim, Washington.
-Reedsburg Times.
The boy referred to above may be
the grandson of the late DIR. Corey of
Viroqua, Wisconsin. Stanley is FAM
lily name and Stanley Corey is very
familiar to the Home News people.
DIR. Corey had a son by that name,
who would be about the right age to
be the boys father or uncle.-Spring

The Coreys are well known here and
possibly someone may know the ident-
ity of the mother.

! Many members are feeding balanced

producers show only slight gains with
oil meal and bran in ration, while
others show substantial gains and are
holding up milk flow. However the
I feed costs show a pressing need of a
cheaper source of protein Alfalfa
and the soy bean are at present our
most promising crops for cheap pro-
teins. Alfalfa is not easily establish
/ ed but given proper conditions will
htrive as well as clover.
Prof. GRADER, secretary of Wiscon-
! sin alfalfa order recommends to sow
alfalfa in spring with a light nurse
crop using a bushel of barley or early
oats to the acre and cutting for hay
when grain is in milk to conserve
moisture. 1t is useless to SOW alfalfa
on sour soils. Have your county agent
makek a soil test to determine amount
of lime to apply.
The soy bean is rapidly coming into
favor on Wisconsin farms. Drilled in
with corn it makes a high protein sill
age. Can also be sown broadcast, but
for best results for either hay or seed,
it must be drilled in rows and cult
waited some. Use corn planter with
special plate for soy beans with the
shoes set Al inches apart and strad-
die every other row making them %

must be inoculated for good results.
incubation can be had from Wiscon-
