Bees That Lay Eggs
in Bricks and Wood

sometimes as you are looking at
an old wall you will notice that the
mortar between the bricks contains q
number of deep pits. II you probe
into various holes you will be startled
eventually by the exit from one of
them of small, but very angry, bee.
You have, In fact, disturbed the ma
son bee In his home The hole in
which he was lurking was made by
his powerful jaws.
The female lays eggs in little recep-
tacles at the bottom of the hole and
places store of food beside each
egg. The hole is then sealed up with
a mixture of clay and mortar, soft
ened with the bees saliva The eggs
are left to themselves, and when
hatched the young bees eventually
eat their way out into the open.
The cousin of the mason bee Is
called the carpenter bee. He bur.
rows into woodwork, choosing gen
orally the underside Of the beam, to
protect the hole from rain.
At the bottom OF the hole an egg
Is laid. Then comes partition OF

DISTRESS
OF Miners Families Told OF
In Plea For Aid

Washington.-In a statement issued
from A. F. of l.. headquarters, all
trade union affiliates are reminded OF
a resolution passed by the Ell Paso
convention calling on organized labor
and sympathizers to aid West Vir-
ginia and Kentucky miners.
These workers are endeavoring to
secure renewal of wage agreements
which expired in March last year. In
some sections of West Virginia the
struggle to maintain unionism dates
back nearly four years.
Wholesale evictions necessitated the
establishment of barrack and tent col
onies on land leased by the United
Mine Workers, and strikers and their
wives and children face the rigors of
winter with nothing to shield them
from the elements but tent and board
shacks.
The strikers are in sore need of
clothing, shoes and school books for
their children. The United Mine
Workers are doing everything in their
power to reduce suffering to a mini
mum, but the financial drain is in
creasing because af additional miners
who are rejecting the coal barons'
antiunion policy, maintained by an
army of thugs. In addition to main
tanning these colonies, the union is

Nice or Nicaea in ancient times was
a town in Bithynia, small country
Of Asia Minor and province of the
Roman empire. 1t lay to the south
east of the Sea Of Marmora. During
the Second century before the Chris
tian era Bithynia was an independent
kingdom and Nicaea was the seat Of
the royal government. Nicaea is cele-
brated as having been the scene of the
first general council of the Christian
church, which sat from June 19 to Au-
gust %, 325, and adopted the creed,
which, taking its name from the name
Of the town in which the council met,
is known as the Nicene creed. This
creed emphasizes the divinity of our
Lord and the doctrine Of the Trinity.
1t is the fundamental creed of all
Trinitarian churches the world over.

Artists Fee Too High
Euen for Proffeer

One Of the good stories about the
famous painter, Meissonier, is In re-
gard to his experience with new
rich gentleman who had erected pri-
vate theater at his chateau. Meis
sonier was just then at the height Of
his fame and was spending months
painting pictures and selling them for
about 5000 square inch.
The rich man conceived the Idea
that what his theater most needed was
drop curtain painted by the famous
artist so he went to the studio and
proposed the matter to him.
How large Is the curtain to be?"
asked the painter.
1T will be 80 feet high and 35 feet
wide." was the reply.

ly, sit would take me 80 years to paint
such curtain, and it would cost you
$4,000 1000"

tees to it's telegraphers that an cleo

pany union" will be held in February
The telegraphers recently held q

GAINS In PAY ROLLS
Indicate Upward Swing In
Business

BY International Labor News Service.
Albany, n. Y-The renewed up
ward swing of business was evident
in December's increase in industrial
activity Factory payrolls of New
York state were per cent higher
than in November. Part of this gain
appeared because the previous
months reports had included Armis-
tice Day. But the rise was impor-
tant, as the need of overtime in some
lines which supply the Christmas
trade ordinarily tends to send payrolls
lower in December
This statement was issued by IN
dustrial Commissioner James A. Ham
ilton, of the state department Of labor
1t is based on reports from a repre-
sentative list of manufacturers who
employ half million workers OF
about 40 per cent Of the factory work
ers of the state
The December gain in payrolls is
comparable in size to the one in De.
cember, 1929, when industry was also
moving in an upward direction Al
that time, however, manufacturing
was in the second stage Of the up
ward movement and metal manufac-
turers such as instruments and appli-
ances, tools, and light metal ware, as
well as clothing, were already more
active. Now it is the steel and cop
per mills and railroad equipment
which are bringing up the total vol
ume of employment Textiles are
also responsible for part of the i'm
provement and glass, leather anc
shoes have contributed to a smaller
extent
Average earnings for December
were $2S.26, the highest since the
depression. Men received $31.52, sc
cents more than in November, but
this was partly due to the holiday
last month. Women averaged $17.13

La TOILETTE
Ran Second in Many Illinois

Illinois state organization, which is

La Toilette and Wheeler carried one
Illinois county and ran second in 25

ing region.
The progressives also edged out the
democrats for second place in 26 of
the 30 country towns of Cook county,
in which Chicago is located, and ran
neck and neck with the "unterrified
and undefied" in the other four towns.

ANOTHER SQUEEZE
New Form of Trust Men
aces Retailer

New York.-The vertical" trust
that will link up the manufacturer
and retailer, was forecasted by Irving
S. Paul, business analyst, before
the National Boot and Shoe Manufac-
turers' Association. The speaker
pointed out that the financial interest
in retail establishments is growing
and that many of the large concerns
are now controlling their supply
sources.
He referred to the possibility of
such control in the shoe business
where capacity must eventually
force out the smaller producers.
About 1412 per cent of the industry
does 65 per cent of the business, he
said.
Large retail establishments, through
their financial resources, can outbid
the small retailer, but when the "ver-
tical' trust is in operation the small
retailer will find new obstacles. His
larger rival will have direct access to
the supply, and will not have to buy
through commission houses, brok-
erage offices and manufacturers
agents. These charges will all be saw
ed
The present tendency of large
stores is shown by the formation OF
the associated retailers of America
which consists of a group of the larg.
est department stores in several cit
les of the east that do an annua
business of $1o0,o00,O00 The purpose
is to develop greater economies.
