how she has lived and is living.
The butterfly woman has reason
to fear old age. She has no firm
foundation to her character. She
lives in the present, for play alone.
She gives the world nothing except
her beauty, her charms. She de-
ponds upon admiration Of those
charms for her happiness. When
her beauty fades, she has nothing
left. To her, the first wrinkle is a
real tragedy.
Not so, the woman whose beauty
is her character, whose happiness is
in what she gives the world, not in
what she receives. Happiest Of all,
of course, is the woman to whom old
age means time to enjoy the family
she has reared.
She may have a passing tear for
the youth to which everyone would
like to cling. But she knows that
old age can be beautiful, too.

TRY THIS SCHEME
When You Begin a New
Puzzle


Here are few tips on the solving
of cross word puzzles. Many readers
of the Press already may have discov-
cred them.
First, when you start new puzzle,
read through the definitions until you
reach one which you recognize, and
if you are fairly sure of your guess,
jot down the word in the proper
squares. Most puzzles contain several
words which appear again and again
words such as "emu," ''boa," "ai,''
"ra," and several others whose mean
ings are so limited that it makes
variation in definitions impossible
Consequently, if you go through the
entire list, you will find quite few
words at the beginning which will
give you good start.
Another thing to be careful of is
the proper Interpretation of defni-
tions. Many words have several
meanings or shades of meanings,
which are likely to give the solver a
wrong impression Sometimes the
word may be used as either a verb
or noun, but the definitions, of
course, will give only one meaning
For instance, think of the many ways
of defining each of the following
words: mop, heat, air, run, view
drop, set.
Of course there are no set rules
for this fascinating game; perhaps
that it one reason for it's popularity
but in any event these suggestions

Tactics Again Exposed!

communicate with President Green on
the subject, in order to set at rest
these fake news items.
As far back as 1919, in the Atlantic
City convention of the American
Federation of Labor, William Green,
then delegate from the United Mine
Workers, signed the first resolution
adopted by the American Federation
of Labor convention, declaring
against prohibition. He was also an
active delegate from the United
Mine Workers organization at the
Denver and Portland conventions
both of which went on record in no
unmistakable terms for modification
of the Volstead law to permit the
manufacture and sale of wholesome
beer, and instructing the officers and
executive council to do everything
within their power to assist in bring
ing about modification.
President Green was a member of
the executive council of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor during all
of these years, and in May, 1922, the
executive council issued an appeal to
the electors to support congressman
and senators who agreed to work and
vote for modification of the Volstead
law in conformity with the expression
of the Denver convention of the
American Federation of Labor held in
1921.
President Green's replies to our in
quiry regarding the press reports and
news articles which appeared in the
American Issue,' the official publ
cation of the Anti-Saloon League, we
believe are of utmost Importance, and

A CORRECTION

For some time past the Retail
Clerks Union has been running in
the Press each week an advertise
ment containing list of stores not
conducted under union conditions and
whose clerks, if any employed, are
not members of the Retail Clerks
Union. In the list of names was that
of the Army and Navy goods store,
Front and High streets. This store
is now at 154 Hig hstreet. The store
now employs only union clerks and
has signed an agreement with the
union. The Retail Clerks Union de-
sires that the public know that the
store is now fair to it's organization.

herewith quote extracts of his reply
under date of January z, 1925:
I'm your communication you refer
to statements issued by the Associat-
ed Press and other special writer's in
which they speculate regarding my
attitude toward prohibition, the Anti
Saloon League and the Volstead en-
forcement law. These statements to
which you refer, as appearing in the
press reports, were not authorized by
me in any way whatsoever | am
not responsible nor can / be held re-
sponsible for speculative statements
issued by press writer's. have is
sued no statement, either officially
or personally, upon these subjects,
nor have | referred to them in any
interview with newspaper men. The
statement to which you call my at
tention as appearing in the Toledo
Blade Bureau issue and the Associat-
ed Press that | was associated with
the Anti-Saloon League is entirely
erroneous | have never been mem
Der of the Anti-Saloon League, nor
have | been associated with it in any
way whatsoever"
Again, under date of February 25,
he writes the following:
"The American Federation of Labor
declared its attitude toward the modi-
|fication of the Volstead act through
the adoption of Resolution No. 5 at
the Atlantic City convention of the
American Federation of Labor and
the adoption of Resolution No. 69
at the Denver convention. These ex-
pressions constitute the official atti-
tude of the American Federation of
Labor toward the modification of the
Volstead act
AS President of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor, it will be my pur-
pose, as it is my duty, to make known
the position OF the American Fedora
ton of Labor upon the question of
modification of the Volstead act, and
to cooperate as fully as possible with
my official associates in carrying into
effect the declarations of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor"
The above letters of President
Green brand conclusively as false
hoods the articles and statements Is
sued by the Anti-Saloon League
through it's official organ and Off
GERS, who, in this as in the past in
stances, have not hesitated to issue
false statements in their effort to
cover up their many misdeeds.
We ask that this information be
given the widest publicity possible
through the columns of your journal
so that the people generally may
know the whole truth.

To All Labor Publications:


On December %, 1924, the Anti.
Saloon League issued an Associated
Press dispatch, declaring that the
newly-elected president of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, William
Green, is an active "dry," and in its
official organ, "The American ISSUE
of January 2, 1925, it further de.
clared Green's election as president
of the American Federation of Labor
as victory for the dry forces, and
announced that he is a bone dry and
stands opposed to modification of the
Volstead law.
In the American Issue of January
23rd they again attempt to mislead
the public. This in spite of the fact
that President Green issued state
ment in Boston on January 18, 1925
in which he declared in favor of modi-
fication of the Volstead lay to permit
the manufacture and sale of beer and
light wine, and further declared that
he will carry out the policy of the
American Federation of Labor on this
subject, and that he will do every
thing within his power to bring about
modification.
Thus again the Anti-Saloon
Leagues tactics to mislead the people
by their malicious and deliberate
falsehoods are exposed
Owing to many inquiries which
labor and people in many walks OF
life, as to the truthfulness of the
statements emanating from the head
quarters of the Anti-Saloon League at
Westerville, Ohio, we were obliged to

RENT BILL IS DEAD

Washington.-The bill that would
regulate rents in the District of Co.
lumbia died with the recent congress.
The measure would place drastic
powers in the hands of commission.
President Coolidge favored the pro-
posal which was intended to check
gouging landlords. Real estate men
throughout the nation flooded the
capital with protests against this un-
usual legislation. The landlords now
promise to be "good."

BLAME LIQUOR AS
REASON FOR MANY
AUTO FATALITIES

Intoxication Of auto drivers caus-

That this statement is one Of fact
is indicated by the % deaths FOL

first ten months Of this year which
were results Of intoxication acci-
dents, according to records Of the
public safety department Of the

Rehearses Lines
Between Jobs of
Speeder-Pinching

Several residents along Fourth
street were considerably disturbed
early last evening by hearing a
loud voice holding fourth at the
curbstone. and those whose curiosity
prompted them them to make furth
er investigation were surprised to
see Joe Reynolds, FL Centre s traf-
fic cop apparently wildly waving his
arms, and talking to, some unseen
person.
One citizen was on the point of
calling up police headquarters and
informing Chief Barker that his
star traffic man had undoubtedly
lost his mind, when the officer hop
ped on his motorcycle and sped
away.
1t developed later that Joe was
rehearsing his lines for "Dulcy,"
the play which will be given next
week by Boyce Aten Post. Ameri-
can Legion, in which he takes a
part. While watching for speeders
on Fourth street. the officer thought
he would make good use of his time

aware that he was making so much
noise, being carried away with his
art, and when he realized that at
least one house owner was watching
him with suspicion. all thoughts
Of art fled and so did Joe.

last piece of writing as the cop has
threatened to shoot on sight If this
