Is said to have made assaults on pa
tients after being taken to the nos

was illegal. He was at once rear
rested in the corridor Of the court
house and recommitted to st. Eliza

CHAPTER v

| Tom, the hero in "Labor's Reward" "
was union man. He was such a
strong union man he believed like
many others that there was no one
that had such respect for organized
| labor and the benefits to be derived
from it. But he had lesson to
learn. A lesson that would show
many more benefits could be gained
through organized labor than merely
the fact of belonging to union.
He was to learn that not only must
union man uphold the principles of
his individual union and craft, but he
must aid all other union men in main
tanning wages, hours and working con-
ditions in their respective crafts.
| One day Tom dropped into a hat
store in Chicago and purchased hat.
AS he left the store he met friend
/ Of whom he asked:
| What do you think of my hat?"
The friend took the hat, turned it
upside down, raised the band, appar-
emily looking for something that
should be under it. Finally he handed
the hat back to Tom and said:
"Tom, don't you know that for
every dollar you spend for non-union
| goods like this you are contributing
to child labor, underpaid workers,
long hours and unsanitary conditions I?
Why you are even hurting your Mary
and her little sister,"
Tom was staggered He walked up
and down the street thinking over
what he had been told. He rushed
back into the store where he had pur-
chased the hat and obtained the return
of his money. He then went into the
union label store at 435 South Dear
born street and purchased hat with
the label Of the United Hatters of
America sewed to the lining. When
he visited Mary that night he proudly
exhibited his union-made hat.
But he did not let it end there.
Later Tom was appointed general
4 organizer for the American Fedora
tion of Labor. Every noon hour while
eating his lunch he would gather his
fellow employees about him and extol
the union label and what it stood for
| Boys" said he, "don't you know
or haven't you given it any thought
that you must insist that every dol
lar you or your wives and families
spend should be for union made and
union labelled goods. Every dollar
you spend for union goods helps you.
1t increases your power. did not
realize this until just lately, and now
even the loaf of bread from which
this sandwich was made bore a union
label and the meat was bought from
a union butcher. insist that every
article of clothing | wear must have
union label. My shoes must be
union made. If ! buy cigar it must
be from box bearing the unior
label. And so it is that everything
we buy, including amusements as vel
as the necessaries of life. The unior
label is the best thing to go by wher
you go to buy.
II Demand the union label"
Il Another day Tom continued along
\ the same line.
I'VE must stop buying non-uniol
goods. We are responsible for man!
