Departments.

With the ever increasing industrial
activities and complexities, the con-
slant growth of trade unionism and
the rapid multiplication of duties and
function of the American Federation
of Labor, it became desirable to ere
ate distinctive bureaus or depart
ments charged with particular duties
and functions which could not bead
ministered so efficiently by the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor as q whole.
The departments thus far formed
are four in number and including the
building trades department, the metal
trades department, the railway en-
plOyes' department and the union la
bel trades department
These departments are subordinate
divisions or agencies Of the American
Federation Of Labor. They are dis
tinguished from city and state feder-
atoms Of labor in that they are form
ed on industrial lines. They afford
the opportunity to federated interna-
tional unions Of delegating powers
and authority to such department
which would not and could not dele
gate to the American Federation Of
Labor because Of its general labor
character. These departments are
created in immediate response to the
needs and requirements Of the great
developments taking place in the
more basic industries Of our nation.

MOCK-sAUSAGE A LA DE WOODY
The truth Is that in recent years
have done comparatively little
cooking except in camp. AS to which
OF my camp dishes Is the best, some
friends favor one and some another,
In the long run perhaps my mock
sausage a la Dc Woody has received
the m )st enthusiastic encomiums. l
sometimes feel that the merit of the
mock sausage De Woody is eXag-
gerated as nearly anything tastes
good when you throw it together
over camp fire. At any rate here
is all there is to it:
Pick over about a half cup of lima
beans and soak over night in cold
water, Drain and cook in sailed
boiling water until solf, then force
through PURGE strainer. This gives
you about three quarters of cup
of pulp. Add Gne-third cup dried
bread crumbs three tablespoons of
heavy cream of butter, a few grains
of pepper, onefourth teaspoon of
salt, one-half teaspoon of sage, and
one egg beaten slightly. Shape in
form Of sausages, dip in crumbs, egg
and crumbs and fry In olive oil. Drain
and arrange on serving dish. Some
times l garnish with fried apple rings.
The trouble is that a camper often
goes all day without passing an or.
chard and consequently has no apples.

ms: SPECIAL FEATURES OF INTEREST TO WOMEN
MOTHERS OF
FAMOUS MEN
By MARY ADRIAN
The Mother of Rembrandt

Another mother, who was largely
responsible for the future greatness
of her child, was the mother OF
Rembrandt van Ryn, great Dutch
painter, whose works hang in all the
most famous museums of Europe
and America. Rembrandt, whose
father was a miller, was sent to
school, but his teacher complained
that he would not learn his lessons,
but drew pictures all day long. His
mother was delighted.
Very we'll, then" she said If
he will do nothing but draw pictures,
let him draw pictures" Poor and un-
educated as she was, she saw in his
boys persistence an augury for the
future. She was very ambitious for
him. and did everything in her power
to foster his ineiinations.. She even
quarreled with her husband, who
could see nothing but waste of time
in Rembrandt's drawings, and who
thought he should be miller, like his
father.
But the mother was determined,
and as soon as the lad was old
enough she took from its hiding
place a purse filled with gold coins,
which represented her life savings.
Then she dressed little Rembrandt in
his Sunday clothes. and journeyed
with him to Leyden, where she put
him in the school of great teacher.
My son." she told the teacher
will be a famous painter some day.
and you will be proud to have taught
him."
And many years after the teacher
reminded her of her prophecy.

Far out across yon hill. my boy,
Then Tn across a meadow greening
You'll come upon a road that forks
One TO the left. one to the right;

And In years that come to you
When you come to divided trails
Turn to the right, don't hesitate.
Good-by, and may God bless you"

Her son had to admit, even in the

When the Dragon carried Raggedy
Ann and her friends up to the door
of the castle in which Marggys
Daddy was prisoner. Raggedy
Andy hammered upon the door with
his magic wooden sword. Then the
twoheaded dog who guarded the
door from the inside, barked so
loudly 1t made eyeryone's ears stop
up. And when Raggedy Andy pushed
the door open, the two-headed dog
jumped right out and into the Drag
ons mouth
My! How the two-headed dog
scratched around inside the Dragon.
He made a lot of noise, because the
Dragon was made of Stats and COW
cred with heavy paper. Now we
must jump off the Dragons back and
hunt through the castle until we find
the room in which Marggy's Daddy is
shut And we must hurry before the
great two-headed dog chews the pa
per out of the Dragons side and
ehases usu' said Raggedy Ann.
After we find Marggy's Daddy,
then the Dragon can open his mouth
and let the two-headed dog out, for
after we find Marggy's Daddy, then,
of course, there will be no reason for
the dog guarding the door. and he
will probably run around the castle
ana hunt Tor bone to eat!
Maybe it would be a good plan
giving the dog a bone before we go
into the casle!" Raggedy Ann, sug-
gested, for If the dog has something
to eat, then he won't tear the paper
off the Dragons wooden slats"
Everyone thought this was good
idea. Raggedy Ann usually thought
of the best ways of doing everything.
But, of course, when they looked
through all their pockets, not even
Mr. Doodle had bone. I'VE will
have to give the two-headed dog a
large piece of chocolate caken
Marggy's Mamma said, "All l have in
my basket is cake and cookies and
do not believe that will be enough
for such large two-headed dogl"
"Why not just throw the two-
headed dog one piece of cake, so that
the two heads will quarrel over the
piece of cake long timer Mr.. Doc
die said.
mo! MOI" Raggedy Ann replied.
1--WE must not do that for you know
1t is not nice to quarrel and fight
We will give the dog piece of cake
for each headn
So Marggys Mamma cut off two
large pieces of chocolate cake and
told the Dragon to open his mouth.

Just as soon as the great two
headed dog sees that he can get out,
then he will quit his loud barking
and l will throw him the cake' she
said.
SO the Dragon opened his mouth
and Marggy's Mamma tossed the two
pieces of cake where the two-headed
dog could see them"
Look QUIT" the Dragon cried,
Hes coming out" And out from
the Dragons mouth came the two
headed dog.
And when Raggedy Ann and Rag

they jumped from the Dragons back

us on first awakening, when we

young Lang. He recalled all that had
happened last night--Mrs. Lang $

by her harsh criticism of her. And
the man who loved Ruth Grant had
not dared obey his impulses and
speak out his feeling lest his parent
make a scene from which the object
of his affections would suffer.
All he could do was to be out
wardly calm and pray for the NOR
row, when he could take his mother
home.
In the meantime today must be

Mrs. Lang commented on this fact
when her son knocked at her door
on his way downstairs. He did this,
not from inclination, but because he
knew it would be expected OF him.
He wished also to do all within his

home industry Mr.. Burke has pub
lished a circular which he has been
distributing among homes here invit-
ing people to visit the display of made
in San Antonio products at the Gun
ter hotel between July 30 and August
10.
The circular published and distri-
buted by Mr.. Burke'reads as follows /:
Did you know that beautiful old San
Antonio has great possibilities as n
manufacturing center and that we al
ready have some fine factories here
making Pioneer flour. Lion Brand
Macaroni. Gebhardt's Chill Products,
besides many others which space for.
bids us to mention. We ask you 10
think of the enormous benefits to b.
derived by patronizing home industry.

advancing real estate, new churches
and theaters, beautiful buildings, all
because you are keeping your money
