HUNT FOR ANCIENT
 TRINKETS IN DEBRIS Expedition tq Search Ruins Of New Mexico Experiment House"

Washington, June GA National Geographic society expedition, headed by Neil NJ. Judd. left Washington to- day to begin it's fourth year of eNplor- alton at the ruins Of Pueblo Bonito' New Mexico, giant apartment house of prehistoric times.
 More than 800 rooms have been cleared and many kiNas, or circular ceremonial chambers, already have z been exposed to the desert sunlig-t' Only years ago the great ruin was only vast heap of rock and earth, fallen walls, and wind blown accumu- lations of uncounted centuries.
 The explorations revealed that Puc- bio Bonito was busy village confined within a single dwelling. When in habited it stood four stories high, in cluded some 500 rooms, and sheltered 120e or more persons.
 Explorers Operate Railroad,
 Four teams and miniature rail road operate to remove the vast auan- titles of debris from the huge ruins. Last summer alone 20,00o tons of debris--enough to fill a freight train of 400 gondola cars-wcre removed.

If Back Hurts

When your kidneys hurt and your

Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
your bowels clean, by flushing them

kidneys is to filter the blood. In "a
hours they strain from it 500 grains
of acid and waste, so we can readily

keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of good water-you can't
drink too much; also get from any
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts take a tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast each morn
ing for a few days and your kidneys
may then act fine. This famous

Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not

water drinking, and no doubt you
will wonder what become of your kid

means have your physician examine
your kidneys at leafs twice a year.

BY The Way

1t is given to a few great men to
see their work SO far completed that
they can lie down in final sleep con-
fident that their work will continue as
begun. Not so with Samuel Gompers.
He lived to see his work triumphant
and he must have passed away with
the consciousness that labor would go
on and on toward the final realization
of his ideal of justice, freedom and
happiness for all
Mr.. Gompers took up his work
when organized labor was poor and
weak. He laid it down when labor
had won a place never before attained
in the history Of the world-when it
had attained dignity and place and
sense Of it's own value almost un-

dreamed of when Mr.. Gompers began
his career as leader of the organized
workers.
Despite the cynical, men do some
times get the rewards Of their work
in this life. Surely Mr.. Gompers did.
The workers and the entire nation as
well had time and time again ex-
pressed their glowing appreciation of
his efforts and he went to his death
with the consciousness that his coun-
trymen had blessed him with: "Well
done, thou good and faithful servant. /"
Did you ever hear the story of the
Negro woman who was summoned to
court to answer the charge of cruelty
to her 12-year old son? When the
judge asked her why she had thrashed
the youngster when he might have
been corrected otherwise, she replied:
Judge, has yo' eber been de fathah
Of a 'Onery niggah boy?

Attention has so frequently been
directed to the fight for the Child
Labor Amendment that perhaps some
trade unionists are beginning to think
that too much stress has been laid on
the subject.
Evidence aecumulates, however
that the friends of the amendment
are facing the fight Of their lives and
that the danger to the amendment
has not been over-emphasized. Greedy
manufacturers are resorting to every
means in their power to prejudice the
nation against the amendment and
the result of the Massachusetts, cleo
ton shows what they can do. They
are using the farmers organizations
as their catspaws to rake their chest
nuts out of the fire.
There is a great educational work
to be done to counterfeit the poison
Gus and lying propaganda of the foes
of the amendment and the fight for
the children needs the unqualified
support of every trade unionist and
every believer in the right of the child
to youth free from exploitation at
the hands of money-mad capitalists
and corporations.

NEW YORK CHURCH DISCONTIN
UES CHARITY FUNDS; SAYS
PROHIBITION RESPONSE
Ri

"Above all, the closing of the
saloons and the increase in wages
have so swollen the deposits in the
savings banks that those who former
ly were relieved by the Loan Associa-
ton are now independent" says the
1924 year book of st. Bartholo-
news Episcopal church New York;
explaining the reason for the dis
continuance of one of the oldest
charity funds in the church. The
Benevolent Society and the Loan
Association of the church, the for
mer of thirty years standing, and
the latter of twenty-eight, have been
discontinued, according to the rector,
Rev. DR.. Leighton Parks, because
"there has been a relief of poverty
and the demand for workers and in
creased wages have lifted from many
women the burden of partial support
of the family.
