Protest Continues.
Protests against the proposed execu-
tion continue to pour in. A telegram
to Governor Fuller of Massachusetts,
from Seattle, Wash. says: Elected
delegates representing one hundred
thousand workers of Seattle in protest
mass meeting assembled, passed res
olution urging you to use your power
to stay execution of Sacco and Van
zetti permitting new evidence now in
hands of defense counsel to be sub
mitted at a new trial" The resolution
drawn up at the meeting resolved
that copies ''be sent to the press Of
our city and state. and also Eastern
papers so that our workers in the
East may know that we in the West
stand shoulder to shoulder with them
In this great battle of Liberation for
the working class" The statement
is signed by the resolution committee
of the United Front Committee, Jake
Miller, Frank Bostrom and George A.
Harrison.
The Rochester, Mimi. Trades and
Labor Assembly has voted to send a
telegram OF protest to the Massa-
chusetts governor and urged its dele
gates to work with the Rochester La
Dor Defense Club in their local unions.
The defense club has also wired a
protest to Governor Fuller.
Big Lawrence Meeting.
In Lawrence, Massachusetts, over
six hundred workers attended a pro-
test meeting under the auspices of /.
L. D. for Sacco and Vanzetti, despite
the attempts of the local American
Legion to prevent the holding of the
meeting. Lawrence newspapers carried
stories to the effect that the meeting
would be stopped by all means, in
order to scare workers from attending
it, The meeting, however, was held,
well attended, a good collection taken
and much literature sold. When Stan
ley Clark said, "The international La
Dor Defense is stepping in and will
help Sacco and Vanzetti to the ut
most" the crowd stood up and cheer
ed loudly. With Clark spoke Elizabeth
Gurley Flynn, Albert Weisbord, and
Joseph Salerno.

Dining-Room Decoration

One of the ways to attain such
novelty is by means of the two or
three-tone finish. For the two-tone
effect, one may use either two differ
ent shades of the same color, or two
harmonizing colors. When the room is
large, the lighter of the two coats IS
applied first; whereas, in small room,
it is preferable to use dark under
coat with a lighter finishing coat
After the first color has dried on
the wall the second is applied over
the first, in sections about four feet
wide. Then a sheet of newspaper,
crumpied into an elongated wad and
held in both hands is placed
against the wet second coat, and
rolled over and over down the wall
thus removing portions of the sec
ond coat, so that the color of the
first coat shows through, When
the first four foot strip has been thus
treated, another strip is painted, and
this process is repeated until the
room is finished
The process for a three-tone fin
ish is as follows After the frs
color has dried, a sponge is dipped
in the second color and is tapped
all over the wall, but not covering
it. The third color is applied Il

Typewriter and Telephone Lead Fifty Years of VOID Progress

Sesqui Centennial to Show
Revolution Begun by Two
Devices First Seen in 1876
at Centennial. =
By GEORGE H. JASON
w Philsdsl is this this summer 9Ha1ss to to
w celebrate one hundred and
fifty years of American independ-
ence and progress, the picture of
how far we have gone in century
and half will be hardly less amaz-
ing than that covering the past half
century alone.
The crowds which fiocked to the
Centennial Exposition in 1876 and
saw evidences of what a century
had brought forth under the worlds
newest civilization, had only the
slightest intimations Of the fruits
of American genius that. were to
ripen in half that time in the future.
What our fathers and grandfath-
ers, in their quaint linen busters,
saw at the Centennial were largely
the results Of hundred years of
political progress.
At the Sesqui-C entennial EXPOSE
ton this year, however, will be seen
the evidences of an Industrial, me-
chanical and commercial revolution
of which no one dreamed fifty years
ago, for there had been nothing like
it in the world before.
Practically our whole modern me-
chanical civilization - electricity,
typewriters. telephones, phono-
graphs, automobiles, linotypes-to
say nothing of airplanes and radio
has developed in the half century
between the Centennial and Sesqui-
Centennial Expeditions.
OF all this, only the slightest sug-
gestions were given to visitors to
the flrst national exposition, of
1876. Chief Of these were two new
devices. designed to increase facility

Liquor Advertisement
May Be Displayed

Observation-Disclosures agencies
have lost their fight to keep liquor adj
vertisements out of the postoffice and
the government owned telephone
booths. The postmaster general has
announced that a firm of advertisers
had been authorized TO accept adver-
tisements of alcoholic beverages for
display in all postoftices as we'll as
public telephone cabinets throughout
the country.
Heretofore, this class of advertise
ment was prohibited. much to the
qualification of prohibtionists. who
urged the government to continue the
ban despite the resentment created in
the liquor trading circles. Dealers in
alcoholic heverag es long ago protested
that the order prohibiting their adver-
tisements to appear in the postofices
and telephone booths was an act of
discrimination against their interests.
