New York City.--The board of edu-
cation is reorganizing the continua-
ton schools for youths who work and
apprentice training classes so that as
far as possible the students will be
grouped in separate buildings.
Apprentices in trades that have
courses under the board of education
will go to school as heretofore on
the employers time to perfect them
selves in their craft. Other youths
are expected to attend night school
to get the education they miss by
having to work during the day time.
All young folk under II will be re-
quired to continue their schooling un-
der the arrangement.
A central printing school has just
been established for newspaper fly
boys" and junior pressmen, fat-bed
pressmen, and modern equipment has
been installed for them to experiment
on. A central school is also to be
organized for the 5000 boys now il

thousands of factory boys and girls
go there after work to get the two
hours of instruction the city provides
to help them become better citizens

Union labor is gratified at this de-
velopment to all the young toilers in
industry. The extension of the con
tinuation and apprentice schools is
the result of the activity of the local

The UNION LABEL

In our political life our country has
its flag which stands for freedom,
democracy and justic, and to which
we all bow in sublime admiration,
devotion and answering fealty.
On the economic field of endeavor
we have our union labels, acknowl-
edged and declared to be potential,
driving, helpful force and assistance
in creating unions and maintaining
them steadfast and intact; in Great
ing fair wages, shorter hours and bet
ter working and living conditions, the
union label is silent working agency
that is even beyond the control and
interference of injunction judges.
It is the least expensive agency we
have. 1t works day and night. 1t
never shirks nor complains. 1t never
quits. 1t is always ready and willing
to serve. It should not be neglected.
The label richly deserves our recog-
milton, our unqualified devotion, our
constant and faithful patronage. Hos
tile, labor-baiting employers, open
shoppers, big interests, grasping
profiteers employ all known means to
defeat the just aspirations of trade
unionists and our yearning for bet
ter economic, social and political life.
Let us herewith renew our faith in
and our loyalty to labor's economic
flag, and to pledge our undivided sup
port and patronage to the union label,
shop card, button and working card
of all unions.
Let US call upon the workers in all
trades and callings to pledge their
loyalty to and support of the union
label, thus typifying their devotion to
that emblem of economic solidarity
and fraternal good will.
