One thing I did realize, however,

you wish to wear bobbed hair, you
must have at least near youthful

At a certain hour on a certain day,
all the children of all the schools in
the city were repeating a patriots

memorized. In the lower grades, the
children repeated the words after the
teacher. Every teacher was instructed
to explain the patriotic meaning Of
the exercise. Washington, Lincoln
Jefferson were eulogized in all the
schools, as per detailed instructions.
AS an incident in the celebration, a
moving picture was shown in many
of the schools. All children, from

MANY DANGERS
BESET SETTER
WORKERS IN N. Y.
Explosions Crippl e
Many for Life
BY GERTRUDE PlNcUs,
Worker Correspondent.

NEW YORK, March a. - The
settler workers, altho having a union
lied trade, still suffer from low wages,
unsanitary conditions and the dan
ger of various injuries, and even
death confronting them while at work.
The factories, situated in dark, damp
and filthy cellars, where the workers
perform the various operations of
bottling the water
The work is dangerous and siren
uous. Explosions occur frequently.
The losing of an eye or arm or get
ting severe cuts is daily occurrence
among the settler workers.
Recently a worker was injured in
one Of the shops and the doctor put
in 100 stitches to close his wounds.
The bottling in many factories is done
by machinery.
A worker must turn out 1876 boxes
an hour; that means 1880 bottles an
hour.
The workers are confronted with
still another danger, and that is while
they are polishing the bottle caps the
dust enters their lungs and they con-
tract various lung diseases.
The Settler Workers Union had a
bitter fight with the bosses to put
protective sacks on the polishing ma
chimes, but they refused to do SO.
What is human life to the exploiter-
ers? 1t is profits that count to them!
The Settler Workers Union has a
membership of about rs members in
New York City. This small member
ship is due to the fact that only from
one to three workers are employed in
a shop. The bosses will be compelled
to meet the new agreement very soon,
and the workers are determined to
get their demands.

AMERICAN EDUCATION

bclub is portrayed as mobile civic
organization for humanitarian work. p"
A discussion is going on about new
ly elected judgearisen from the slums,
and elected to office on merit. One
man disagrees-he is an "uplifter," a
social reformer,. who is shown as an
idler living on an inherited fortune.
He gets his ideas from books like
Glasses Versus Masses" by an author
with a very Russian name. This book
plays an important part in the story,
In the discussion, the "uplifter'
argues against the rest by repeating
phrases from the book, such as:
Judges elected on merit-rot!"
''The government and the courts are
bought and paid for by the rich"
1.-The working class will never have
opportunity and democracy here until
they overthrow the government of the
rich. The poor have no equal rights
here. They are born and they die in
the working class"
AS the story goes on, this parlor
radical who sits in fine clubs and dis
cusses Glasses versus Masses" is
left alone with waiter, an old loyal
employe of the club. He converses
with him. Wouldn't you rather be a
guest here, than a servant Of the
rich?' To which comes the prompt
reply, "If l were a guest, l should
envy the waiter, who has the privilege
Of doing human service"
When the clubman argues about
lack of freedom of opportunity for
rich and poor, tears of pity for the
ignorance of the clubman roll down
the walters cheeks; and he points to
the picture of Lincoln hanging above
on the wall, and begins to relate a
story about Lincoln walking twenty
miles in rainstorm to defend a poor
boy he knew who was accused (and
guilty. of stealing or some other seri.
Gus crime.
Lincoln succeeded in enlisting the
pity of jurors and judge who gave the
boy a chance" and acquitted him,
whereupon the boy turned honest, got
an honest job and became loyal
patriotic citizen of America and wor-
shipper OF Lincoln (thls Of course
amidst showers Of applause from the
chlldren). OF course. the waiter turns
out to be the boy Of the story; and
the lesson is--See what the golden
land of opportunity had done for him,
made him a respectable, loyal servant
in the Civic Club.
The story so moves the "uplifter''
that he weepinglyl throws the book,
Glasses Versus Masses" into the fire,
gazes up at Lincoln's picture and the
American flag, and so the picture
ends.
Is American education fact or pro.
paganda.
