A. f. OF l.. Of
FERS DECLARATION
OF SYMPATHY

On Friday morning, following the
death of President Harding, President
Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor got in telephone communi-
cation with the representative labor
men whose organizations are located
in Washington and asked them to
meet at o'clock in the afternoon in
the Executive Council Chamber of the
American Federation of Labor Build
ing.
Thirty-tive officers Of the labor or
CARNATIONS of the District assembled
at the appointed hour and after two
hours conference, adopted the follow
ing declaration in connection with
the passing of President Harding.
1t was an earnest and sympathetic
gathering throughout.
The Declaration.
We are profoundly grieved by the
passing of President Harding. The
shock of his untimely and unexpected
death brings to US sorrow and a
sense of loss that must be felt by all
Americans. To Mrs. HARDING we de-
sire to express QUE deep sympathy and
our great admiration for her devotion
and sublime courage.
We believe we speak for the great
masses of the wage earnerS OF our
country in our expression Of sorrow In
this hour Of national sadness. 1t Is
characteristic of our people that,
differ though We may among our
selves over matters of policy and
principles, we have an unfailing re-
gard and respect for the president and
the presidency.
Those who have sometimes opposed
the president out Of conviction feel
no less deeply grieved today than do
those who have been his consistent
supporters. For ourselves, partisan
ship has never been a personal ques-
ton. 1t has been and must always
be a matter Of conviction and prinei-
plea matter of judgment in relation
to issues, but not in relation to men.
Our hope and effort is for humanity
within our republic and for the perpe-
tuity of its institutions.
In this spirit we join with our
countrymen in mourning the death
of a president who gave his life in

Greeting:
Please list in your definition of the
term open shop the idea that an
0pen-shop is one in which persons
may be employed who are not subject
to the dictates of labor unions. An
"open-shop" is the opposite to a closed
shop. A closed shop is understood to
be one in which a person may not
be employed without the sanction of
a union. Persons are employed in an
open shop without any reference
to their utilization to unionism.
Union men are trying to project
the idea that If shop is non-union
that such a shop has no right to be
termed an "open shop" Open shop
employers insist that they have the
right to use the word An "open-
shop may be operated by managers
who oppose unionsm and provide that
their employees shall not be members
of or affiliated with any union or
unions. On the other hand an "open
shop may be enc in which employees
are not so restricted. Whether the
employees belong to union or not
they are employed in open" shops
as individuals and not as members
Of their union.

W ES. children, I agree with
you, a great bridge spanning
- a wide river or reaching
from one side of a great chasm to
another is wonderful thing.
What splendid feeling Of helpful
work we'll done the engineers who
planned it and the men who built
it must have as they see it span
ming the tide and saving time and
energy for men.
What are some of the great
bridges in the world? There's a
wonderful bridge across the Firth
of Tay, near Dundee, Scotland, and
there's another great bridge in
Canada, near Quebec, and then,
right here in the United States
there are four great bridges across
the East River joining New York
with Long Island, and others in
many other States.
There are several kinds OF great
bridges, among them cantileVer
bridges.
A cantilever bridge Is different
from a suspension bridge. The
cantilever bridge is simply built
from two great foundations on
each side and hasn't any brace
even in the middle. That's the
kind of bridge 7 saw in the Alps
and-it was alive!
Yes, it was really and truly alive,
and I'll tell you about it.
Bobby, Bunny and T were high
up in the Alps, in Switzerland.
Oh, how beautiful it was. We
were on the lookout for chamois.
You know, chamois is an ami
NAL very much like an antelope
and it's like a goat, too. Every
chamois is wonderful jumper and
climber. Sometimes a Chamois
will jump from a great height right
down a precipice and land on his
-four feet as easily~and lightly as a
pussy cat jumps from a back fence
and lands on the ground.

HOW TO MAKE
CHERRY PIE
A Recognized Authority on All
Matters Pertaining to House
hold Management.
By LOrettO C.. Lynch

((~AN you make a cherry
pie, Willie Boy" You
~ remember the old jingle
of kiddie days? But right now
when in most parts of the country
cherries are ripe, letters are be-
ginning to come asking for details
about the cherry pie delicious.
To make good pie crust certain
things are essential. Good pastry
flour is needed This is not patent
or prepared flour but is produced
from wheat harvested in the
Spring. This flour lacks in gritty
material such as one notices in
lingering glutinous bread flour.
Clean, cold vegetable shortening,
or well-washed creamery butter or
a combination Of both are desirable
For a pie for about six allow one
and one-half measuring cups pas
try flour, two-thirds cup shorten
ing and, if liked, One-eight tea
spoon salt with two knives chop
in the shortening. Wet to a dry
paste with a little Ice water. Pat
on Toured board. Roll out lightly
and fit to a pie plate. Heap high
with cherries, preferably those
that have been pitted. Sweeten as
desired. Add a couple Of table
spoons of water.
Wet the edge Of the crust with
cold water. Fit on the upper
crust into which has been cut
several gashes to let out steam.
Press upper crust TO lower with
the tines Of a fork. The top crust
should be painted over with yolk
of egg mixed with a tablespoonful
Of milk Freeze for an hour or 80
in the ice box and then place in a
hot, quick oven.
Small tarts may be made Of the
pie paste by baking on an inverted
gem pan. Fresh cherries may be
placed in the shells, a sweetened,
thickened syrup poured over and
the whole topped with whipped
cream.
