WORKERS EDUCATION
"a Tip from the AmaIgamated Bank)
BY S. A. GARLIN


With its chest stuck out, the Anal
gamated Bank stands in Union
Square. 1t was organized several
years ago for the purpose of helping
the labor movement in its struggles
against the employers according toI
the officers of the AmalgamatedI
Clothing Workers Of America.
From any point in the square can
be seen the nice, large, electric sign
emblazoning the words: The Anal
gamated Bank-First New York La
Dor Bank. Sometimes one of the
other Of the electric letters refuses
to blink and then the sign is not so
impressive as the directors of the
bank would like.
This institution has all the things
that other institutions have. It's
swell inside; marble walls and ele-
giant lighting fixtures. They have
guard in a gray uniform, too. There's
a high class reception room where
the officials of the bank (who are
also officials of the union), have con-
ferences. There are writing tables.
And under the heavy glass on the
writing tables are some attractive
pictures. Some Of them have entic-
ing captions. One of them reads:
planning a trip? See our Travel
Dept, Window "a. All lines-all
Steamers-all accommodations"
There is another one that reads
thus;
"If you had the money-there are
many things you could do-travel,
buy or build a home, or go into bust
ness. You could provide the educa-
ton for your children that is such a
necessity in the competitive struggle
Of today. Many promising boy or
girl has been deprived Of the benefit
of a college training because there
were no plans in advance for saving
money"
There are some nice, chocolatey pic
lures, too. 1t showed how attractive
going to college would be for the
sons and daughters of the New York
clothing workers. Guess what pic
lures they had?
The Workers School? Certainly
not. That wouldn't help out ain the
competitive struggle of today" Not
even the Brookwood School, support
ed by the A. F. of L. class collabora-
tionists, or the New School for So
cial Research, where vital social
themes are material for objective
studies" and "open-mindedness."
The pictures the Amalgamated
Bank officials were displaying showed
Harvard University, educ t. ion al
stronghold of the American pluto
csacy. There were three photographs:
one showed the campus, with great
lawns, and students walking with ten
mis- racquets under their arms; an
other, of the library with nobody
around because all the students were
probably hard at work inside; the last
picture showed the administration
building where appeals are sent forth
to graduates who have "made good"
in various fields of exploitation, to
provide the endowments for the Alma
Mater.
Clothing workers of New York!
Send your sons to Harvard and your
daughters to Vassar. Save them
from the shop and the class struggle!
Class collaboration with a ven
geance. Possibly that is one of the
reasons why the Russian-American
Industrial Corporation, organized to
help in the reconstruction of Soviet
Russia's garment industry, was ne
elected and allowed to lie undevel-
oped. There are more congenial
things to do.

900. So the saving due to public con-
duct of this business amounted to at
least 100000, a saving which goes
right into the purses of wage-earner
families.
In the 5-year period the public
agencies have made 545,543 place
ments at total cost of 1901 1893. If
dependent upon private agencies this
would have cost the workers more
than $1,900,000. Public operation in
the years has saved the workers
Of Wisconsin at least $1,500,000.
Some of the abuses prevalent
among private agencies against which
the free public agencies protect the
workers are discrimination, unreason-
able fees, misrepresentation concern
ing the job, its duration and the
wages to be paid.

BEAUTY CHAlS BY EDNA KENT FORBES

never be shaved off with clippers, for
this makes a short, stubby growth
when the hair begins to come in, and
clipping with the scissors does not do
this.
Have your hair cut to point in
back then, and keep it sufficiently
short toward the ends so that the
longer hair above fluffs out and the
back of the head is built out. If your
hair is unusually thick and rather
coarse you might wear it straight
across the back in the regulation chill
dren's bob, turning the ends under.
l.. De LA henna shampoo will en-
rich the shade of your light brown
hair, and it will not be hurtful to it in
any way. Try cucumber juice FOR
bleaching off the tan. The price you
mention is about a third of that asked
for a permanent wave by the beauty
parlors where their prices are already
very low.

afterward by using cold spray.

Today in
Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

October IA, 1824.-Gen. Lafayette
spent today receiving citizens of
Washington and Georgetown who
called at his hotel to pay their re-
spects, and visiting places Of interest
in the city. On this visit he was see-
ing for the first time the infant Capt.
tai Of the Nation whose independence
he had helped to establish. he
evinced the liveliest interest in every
thing. BY his side was his son, George
Washington Lafayette, who had often
heard his father talk about the new
Nation. His secretary, M. Levasseur.
spent the day touring the city and
making notes of his impressions,
which he later published in an inter.
esting book about Lafayette's tour OF
the United States.
OF the public buildings, then few IN
number, Lafayette liked best the
Capitol, and he was indignant when
he realized the havoc that had been
wrought by the fire kindled by the
British 10 years before. The work OF
repair was nearly complete, but work
men were still at their task. The
general admired the four buildings in
which the Government departments
were housed and was particularly inn
pressed by the simple beauty of the
White House.
Levasseur made note of rostral
column in the Navy Yard erected in
honor of the Americans who fell at
Tripoli. He found it disfigured by
saber cuts. Carved on it's base was
the inscription. 'Mutilated by the
British in 1914"

Gestures and Their Significance
by LYDIA BARON WALKER

tell the child frankly than to let him
guess, If it is best for him to know at
all. So gestures of sign message are
not always safe before youngsters.
Different Signs.
NCr should a mother permit a child
who can talk to indicate what is
wanted without asking for it. Point.
ing IS one of the gestures that society
does not countenance. 1t bespeaks
bad manners, whether used by an
adult or a child. But there are ges.
lures that are favored as well as
frowned upon, such, for instance, as
that of opening ones arms to welcom-
ing q loved one. There is q wealth of
in such a gesture that
warns the heart.
Gestures often speak louder than
words. In any event, they add to or
detract from the significance of what
is said. Yet, when rightly used.
gestures are graceful adjuncts to
speech So it is we'll TO make them
give the impression desired.
Charm of Gestures.
Little children who use gestures
freely are generally very graceful.
They are also apt TO be unself-cons-
cious, and so have a double charm. 1t
is a mistake to call attention to their
habit of talking with the hands" as
gesticulating has been called. If atten-
tion is attracted to them, either the
child stops and so loses one attraction,
or else she makes gestures deliberately
to make herself noticed. This is bad
fault. 1t is only when spontaneous
that gestures in child or adult lend
charm to speech.

Peter Rabbit Worries.
Worry gets one all upset,
1t never was of service yet.
Old Mother Nature.

Peter Rabbit had lost all interest in
his work. For two or three days now
he hadn't cut a single little path up
there in the Old Pasture. In fact, he
hadn't done thing except sit around
and worry since Tommy Tit had
chanced along and told him how COM
Portable little Mrs. Peter was down in
the dear Old Brior Patch and how eX-
ira we'll she was looking. Perhaps
you remember that Tommy Tit had
asked Peter about fine-looking
young rabbit he had seen around. He
hadn't told Peter where he had seen
that fine.looking Rabbit. but Peter
had at once jumped to conclusions
and he was sure that Tommy Tit had
seen that fine-looking young Rabbit
at the dear Old Briar Batch.
"No other Rabbit has any business
in the dear Old Briar Patch" muttered
Peter. whats he doing over there,
anyway? And what's Mrs. Peter try
ing to look so nice for? l don't like it.
No sir. l don't like it. She has no
business to be happy. She ought to
be sorry because I've left her. I'd
like to meet that good-looking Rabbit
He wouldn't be so good looking after
l. SOL Will ANOI hC
wouldn't be so good looking. [ believe
I'll run down to the dear Old Briar
Patch and see what's going on"
Then Peter remembered how he had
said that he would never come back.
Certainly. it wouldn't do to go back
so soon. Little Mrs. Peter might think
he had changed his mind and that he
had come back to see her. No, IT
would never do. He must try to find
out things without going back there.
So Peter began spending most of his
time on the edge of the Old Pasture
nearest to the Green Meadows and the
dear Old Briar Patch. 1t was too far
from the dear Old Briar Patch for him
to see any one over there. But now
and again some of the feather folk
would come along and Peter would at
once begin to ask questions. Carol
the Meadowlark was one of the first
of his old friends that Peter saw. He
happened to alight on the post of the
fence along the edge of the Old Pas
ture right close to where Peter was
sitting.
"Good morning, Carol" said Peted.
"Why, hello, Peter" exclaimed Car
oil. "It's a long time since I've seen
you. Where have you been keeping
yourself?"
ooh, I'm living up here In the Old
Pasture now" replied Peter, trying to
speak carelessly.

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Saturday. October Is.

Good and evil planetary influences
contend tomorrow, according to as
trology. The morning should be an
auspicious time to undertake any sort
of constructive enterprise.
There is a promising sign for those
who would promote big projects, many
of which will add to the world fame
of the United States.
While good luck should attend plan.
ning and preparation for any sort of
an undertaking, it is wise to delay
action until more favorable rule of
the stars.
1t is a fortunate day for starting
on long ocean voyages, and persons
who make trips for business reasons
should be especially lucky.
Under this planetary direction. fore
sight should be keen, and all who or
ganize for concerted action in buSi-
ness should profit well.
Oil is still subject to the best pos
sible influences. making for new dis
coveries, as we'll as added uses for
varied products.
Women should make the best of
opportunities to prepare themselves
for public service, and they are as
sured of many new avenues of work
for the general good.
Much transcontinental travel is fore
cast for the coming Winter, (which
will draw many visitors westward.
Persons whose birth date 1t is have
the augury of a year of hard work
and real prosperity, which will be
fully earned.
Children born on that day should
be clever with hands and brains. They
succeed by devotion to business af-
fairs.
