SAME OLD STORY

The central body received COM
munication from the Ohio State Fed
GRAFTON, Tuesday night, in which Sec
retary Donnelly states that they are
in receipt of a letter from Mr.. Fred
Tish, secretary treasurer of the La
Dor Council of Coshocton, in which
he informs the federation that two
advertising solicitors by the names
of B. F. Gilkinson and J. Jerome
slipped into their city and represented
them on Labor Review, and that
they collected about $100 and flew
away They never issued any review.
The trades unionists of Coshocton
never knew that they were in the city
until after they had left. They want
the central body to notify them if
these men are located and they will
arrest them for misrepresentation.
There is bunch of grafters who
prowl around the state continually
using the name of labor to fleece the
merchants, manufacturers and busi-
ness men whenever possible, with all
sorts of fake advertising schemes
Labor unions will be doing a good
piece of work for themselves and

legislative license constantly waiting,
hat in hand, in the anteroom of the
court for its seal of approval. The
loss of prestige and power of the
American congress and growth of i'm
perial authority by the once mild
hammered court is best expressed by
lusty challenge of Justice Taft,
chief for life. In the late case of
Bailey VS.. Drexel Furniture Com
pany MAY Is, 1922, child labor case),
he said:
1T is the high duty and function
of this court in cases regularly
brought to its bar to decline to recog-
nize or enforce seeming laws of con-
gress dealing with subjects not in
trusted to congress but left or COM
mitted by the supreme law of the land
to the control of the states. We can
not avoid the duty, even though it
requires us to refuse to give effect
to legislation designed to promote the
highest good"

One day each year the Fraternal
Order of Eagles, throughout the
length and breadth of the land,
pauses in its pursuits of life to honor
and pay loving tribute to it's dead.
Butler Aerie No. 407, the local lodge,
has set aside Sunday, February 25,
for this day. The memorial services
will be held Sunday afternoon at 2:30
o'clock at the high school auditorium.
The Eagles have gained splendid
reputation for the completeness of
their memorial services in the past
and the committee in charge are plan
ming for the most impressive services
to be held Sunday ever before at
tempted by the local lodge.
A little something different in Sun
days program, and one rather un-
usual, is that a local man, or boy
as he is better known, will deliver
the principal address. He is Vincent
Pater, the well known young attorney.
His many friends are anxious to hear
him, and no doubt will take advan-
tage of the opportunity advanced for
Sunday and will turn out by the hun
dreds. The committee has arranged
a splendid vocal and instrumental
program for the services. The public
is heartily invited to attend these
Eagle services.
The committee in charge consists
of Jos. j. Bruno, chairman; M. J. Col
ligan, Harry w. Hetterich, G. NJ.
Johnson, Henry E. Yordy, Chas.
Schrichte, William Wilmer, Chas.
Berk, Joseph Becker and Geo. Brand

H. COWLEY-CARROLL
Local Rector Advocates Ad-
vertising For Church

Church advertising finds an en-
thusiastic advocate in Hubert Cowley-
Carroll, rector of Trinity Episcopal
Church. This is made manifest in a
page and one-half article in "The
Poster" national journal of poster
advertising and poster art.
In his article Rev. Cowley-Carroll
said in part:
1T has become increasingly obvious
that If the church is to bring its work
to the notice of the mass of people at
present out of, or Indifferent to its
influence, it must advertise like any
other concern seeking the interest
and allegiance of the public.
When the church as whole Gre
ates demand for effective publicity
the advertising professional will spe-
clallze in that field far more than it
does at the present time. The pub
llclty of the church should be in the
hands of an expert, sympathetic with
the aims and ideals for which he is
working. Perhaps it is not at all Wis
lonary to contemplate the time when
students of theology may have the
elementary principles of the psychol-
ogy of advertising added to the cur
rlculum with the psychology of re-
hgious education. 1t would seem that
the latter is incomplete without the
former.
"ln the opinion of the writer. there
is very definite field for the use of
the poster for church purposes,
whether for community GO to
Church" and other campaigns, or for
individual organizations. 1t is quite
unnecessary to state that the church
like an another organization must
make use of business methods in a
business world"
Rev. Cowley- CAROLS article was
accompanied by picture of Trinity
church, and the large poster used to
announce the centennial celebration
of Trinity parish last October. Dur
ing the time the poster was in posi-
tion it attracted much attention and
brought forth much favorable COM
ment. 1t was designed and erected
bIy w NJ CoOJu,i,, ,,oe+o,o a 11yoY+;eo,.
The work was all done by local en-
ployes of Mr.. Goodwin, and needless
to say that they are all good union
men. This, of course, counts much
for the efficiency of the work
Mr. Goodwin is to be congratulated
upon the national recognition of his
work obtained, but it is no more than
he justly is entitled to.

HOLBROCK- K-RIEDEL
SHOE STORE
Sign Agreement With Re-
tail Clerks Union

Hamilton has a new shoe store,
and union store at that Carl Hol-
brock and Joe Riedel, two of Hamil-
tons best known shoe clerks, have
entered business for themselves in a
handsomely appointed room under
meath the Second National Bank, 228
High street. This location is best
known as the room occupied for 30
years by the Heck book store Carl
Holbrock and Joe Riedel are two old
members of the local Clerks Union,
and it is needless to say that they
have signed agreement with that
organization and that their store will
always be conducted strictly under
union conditions. Their host of
friends, especially those in the ranks
of local organized labor, will wish
them unbounded success in their ven
ture.

of the labor temple is for rent to the
public. This is one of the best dan
cling pavilions in the city, and every
thing connected with it is clean and
up to date. If your organization is
contemplating dance, euchre or any
other public gathering, it will pay you
to call up the trustees at the tenn
pie. Prices will be made known on
application.

to all machinists.

Tattooed From Birth.

1t used to be quite common in FIJI
and Samoa for a man to bear upon his
arm or body certificate of his birth
which was practically indelibIe Tat
tooing is carried on in these islands to
an absurd extent, and it is the practice
to tattoo on the hand of mother the
date of her children's births. Some
times, also, an enthusiastic father will
tattoo the date of the birth on the
child itself, and, no matter how long it
lives, the certificate will remain easily
decipherable In some adjoining islands
every child is tattooed almost from
head to foot upon completing its
twelfth year. The result is remarkable,
especially if the child is growing rapid
ly, as the spaces between the tattoo
marks increase in size year by year.

partitions are near enough to fur
naces and smoke pipes to start burn
ing or smoking at any unexpected
time.
The electrical wiring in cellar is
very dangerous. On the side of base
ment used by boys, near the foot Of
the stairs, is an ordinary cotton and
rubber insulated wire swung over and
across pipes and it is unraveled and
broken near contact with bulb. Short
circuit possibilities are very great. 1t
is doubtful if you could collect prop
erty insurance in case of fire.
These conditions plus inadequate
exits and movable benches make the

discontinued at once The State Build
ing Code does not sanction an audito-

For convenience in checking the
hazards are listed as follows:

proof. Central hall and middle exit
over furnaces. Open electrical wiring

expert to suggest plans for putting
these buildings in safe condition and
that you at once adopt an effective
