Labor Day assumes deeper sig
nificance with each succeeding year.
More thought is given to vital things;
to the value of the power to create
to develop life itself.
The organized labor movement is
the expression of this ideal. 1t is
spokesman for the wage earners. 1t
is responsible for this day, now uni
versally acclaimed.
The past year has been one of pro-
gress for labor. This advance has
not been confined to material i'm
provements. Our most substantial
gain is widening public opinion
favorable to the workers cause.
The great religious movements are
a unit in defense of the trade union
theory. In increasing numbers
churchmen of every belief appreciate
the trade union ideal that the worker
must have free expression in his en-
ployment, not only for industrial rea-
sons but that he may "carry this in
dependence into other activities. This
harmonizes with the historic Chris

Then you will be playing the game
