 The band was standing in Ohio street and he was to lead it. The sons saw him fall and were told he was dead, But over on Michigan Boulevard their mother and their sisters were waiting to see the parade. So the boys re- mained and marched smiling past their mother. She did not learn until she reached her home and the sons had arranged to prepare her for the shock.

Keep Up The Fight, People!

The great lack of interest by the voters i'll recent primary elections prove that they had no choice" of candidates This apathy of the people i'll many states where only a third turned out IS causing con siderable alarm among the Old Guard politicians They are won dering how the peoplezare going to vote Ill the November election. They know that they have not trotted out very popular candi- dates because they cannot stir the voters to the old-fashioned torch-light, ballyhoo demonstra- tions
 Those who believe in progres- ,ive political action are alive tl the importance of the primary. It is the most powerful weapon of democracy. Progressives should not become disheartened. In the past few elections they have de- feated a large number of anti labor reactionaries and the pros poets are good that a great many more will be left at home during the coming year.
 The Progressives that have been elected are not i'll the majority In fact, they are very sma: mi nority, but they have accomplished great results in a short time.
 The Progressives have removed Daugherty-the injunction expert and arch enemy of organized labor. If nothing else had been accomplished this would be sui ficient:

 In the House of Representative the Progressives held up the cleo ton of the Speaker until the Old Guard leaders agreed to abolish the pocket veto" whereby the chairman of the Rules Committee could hold up important legisla- tion.
