 Everything was donated free of cna.ge by the Masons including or anges, candies, soda pop, noise max CTS and tubs of lemonade. Many of the youngsters returned home swelled up like poisoned pups, but unanimous in the opinion that they had had a good time.
 No charge was made for transpor- tation to and from the lake. The train was pulled by John Ros- ness, with J. s. Bailey fireman, and Frank O'Shea conductor.

TOday's Thought
 By REV. KENNETH OwEN9

"He that cometh to me shall never hunger. r."-St. John-8-35. The days last slender golden bar
 Yet fingered OCT the distant hill, Then faded as the Evening Star : Came forth and all the world was
 still!
 A bird brushed by me on the wing : And disappeared amid the trees, And then l heard it gayly sing : Among the branches of the l. yes. I passed a churchyard in a mist
 Upon roadway stilled at even The hilltops seemed of amethyst, z The moon of silver in heaven. And I was hungry on the way
 But in the darkness it took flight l fell upon my pended knees to pray
 And found God in the silent night! IT'S RUBIES AND PEARLS NOW Jewelry in which sapphires and pearls and emeralds and pearls are combined have been in vogue for some time, but a novelty of the present sea son is seen in striking costume jewelry which features the combination of rubies and pearls, or rubies and bril- laants. This no doubt has been inspired by the strong feeling for white cos tnmes which have touches of red in the trimming.

Rail- LABOR'S
WAGES BRING
STARVING KIDS
Demand More Money at
Rail Board Meet
BY LELAND OLDs.

III NFederated Press Industrial Editor)
Deficit wages was the striking
term used by President &. Il.
Fitzgerald, Brotherhood of Rail-
IWay Clerks, to describe to the
rail labor board the wages paid
Ito members of his organization.
He demands restoration of 1920
wage rates.
Il Saving money on existing
wage rates, said FITZGERALD, may
easily be an immoral practice
for workers because it can only
be done by denying the families
such essentials as sufficient milk
for the babies.
Undernourishment Is Result.
Infant deaths and undernourished
children are the result of thrift prac-
ticed on such inadequate wages.
These assertions he supported by fig
ures from the recently issued cost of
living bulletin of the U. S. department
Of labor which is based upon a house
to house study Of the annual expendi-
lures of more than 10000 typical wage
earners' families, previously review
ed in the Federated Press economic
news service.
Discussing the minimum amounts
, required to enable wage earners to
maintain a decent standard of living
the railway clerks argue that mo
man can support family with three
children on less than $4,000 year
unless he sacrifices many of the de-
cencies and comforts which go to
/ make up the American standard Of
living. And $4,000 year is made
quate for the maintenance of such a
family on the scale expected of work
ers in clerical occupations"
New Departure.
A new departure in the wage case
which Fitzgerald is presenting to the
board was the submission of a series
of budgets adapted to the prevailing
requirements of the various classes of
employees covered by the case. These
