ONE SENTENCE SAVES THE

The French window was not locked

swung it softly open and stepped into
the room. The District Attorney sat
reading under the glow Of a floor
light. Bud drew his revolver and
stepped out into the room.
Buds time had come. 1t was for
this that he had escaped from the
penitentiary. It was for this that he
had torn himself away from the
chance Of new life filed with hope

decent men.

For one instance that might have

the District Attorney said one sent

End OF Cromaanon Aga.

About $1,000 years ago the Cromag-
non age in Europe came to m abrupt
end. There developed a sudden mild
ness to the climate. accompanied by
cool rains. Heavy forests sprang up
on what had been the open grass lands
of wild reindeer, wild horses, and wild
bison. Glaciers pulled back up their
Alpine slopes; the ice fields that were
over what is now Norway and Sweden
melted away. The Pleistocene age was
over and the modern era was at hand.
Cromagnon people all but vanished
from western Europe; Cr0magnon art
was no more. Whether these wild
chestnut-haired hunters followed the
ice into what Is now Russia, or wheth-
er they became extinct. no one knows.
Certain 1t is their former lands were
deserted when the next race OF man
appeared.

SAW OMEN IN SHAKES VISIT
Reptiles Appearance In Seminole In
dian Council Induced Tribe 70
Accept Governments offsr.

Old Indians relate that in ths ~.
iiberations which led to the emisra-
tion from the Florida lands to their
home In the West, the Seminole chief
tains were still stubborn and rebelli-
GUS, and the sentiment was entirely
against accepting the proposition Of
the government. At this time large
snake entered into the council grounds
and slowly coiled himself and looked
around upon the gathered tribesmen,
as though bcseechlng them to take
council Of his movements. For short
time he stayed, and then slowly ln-
coilei himself and leisurely took him
self to the westward.
This was taken as an omen by the
chiefs and the medicine men, and upon
q vote being taken 1t was unanimous
ly voted to accept the terms Of the
government and go westward as re-
quired. Thus many lives and much
expense were saved.
Another curious legend among the
very old men is that the "Mingelesse," !"
the redcOats. will some time come and
help the Seminole to regain his lost
lands. This came about probably on
account of some old promise made by
the British during the fighting days
OF the Revolution or the War of 1912.
And even as late as the Green Peach
war. In the early sos. the old Seminoles
proclaimed that the Great war had
come and that the "Mingelesse" were
coming with great guns to aid the
Seminoles in whipping the white man
and regaining their lost lands.

Labor Day is a double celebra-

determination to maintain Labor S
policy in every field of human en-,
dcavor. For this reason, Labor Day.

significance for the republic.
Our fathers fought and bled in
defense of the inalienable rights of
life, liberty, and the pursuit of hap
pincSS. The government of the
United States was established to
protect these rights. Labor's po
licy stands for their practical rea-
lization for every citizen.
