MORE LIVES THAN A CAT

The old propaganda comparing col
lege professors wages to blicklay-
ers, about miners wearing silk
shirts" and driving Cadillacs, has
again shown it's head. 1t seems to
have more lives than cat is sup
posed to have.
Recently cartoon appeared in the
eastern press showing poor and rag
ged professor on the sidewalk, watch
ing bricklayer with huge cigar in
his mouth, driving big car. John J.
Leary, labor editor of the New York
World, knows his labor. however, and
effectively answered such propaganda
in his column of labor news. He
wrote:

based on the theory that the brick
layer works full time and the pro-
fessor also puts in fifty-two weeks a
year. Actually, the bricklayer who
gets in $50 days year is doing well,
and 200 days is prosperity. In other
words, his annual wage is from
50, 700 to $4,000

GLOOMY RUSSIA

Washington, D. c. (ILNS)-Whilc
soviet propaganda machinery con-
tinues grinding out plots, the soviets
in Russia seem not to be doing so
we'll by the proletariat. DR.. julius
Klein, assistant secretary of COM
merce, in radio talk, drew the pic
ture of soviet failure:
Clearly, rather serious plight ex-
lists within the soviet union. The
grayest problem arises from the un-
deniable shortage of grain and the
consequent scarcity of bread. All So
cial elements are affected, every city
is rationed, prices are mounting,
peasants are leaving their farms.

STRIKERS WIN
Sweeping Victory in Big
Brandon Mills

Greenville, S. C.-Textile strikers
at the big Brandon mills won a
sweeping victory and workers
throughout the entire Piedmont Sec
ticn are inspired
The mills are organized 100 pei
cent under the United Textile Work
ers affiliated to the A. F. of l.. Sign
ed agreements are secured
Public sentiment is so strongly in
favor of the strikers that the Tex
tile Manufacturers Association has
started an advertising campaign to
stem the tide. They claim the speed
up system, known as stretch out,
is forward step, but the workers
claim of long hours and greater pro-
duction at lower wages remains un-
answered.

HERE COMES THE BRIDE

This is the time of year when pros.
pective June brides all over the coun.
try are preparing to attach the bal
and chain to their adoring fances
In the old days, after the wedding
the bride used to alter her wedding
dress into an evening gown. Now she
puts it carefully away for the next
time. An old fashioned marriage is tc
a modern one what a regular play is
to a vaudeville performance.
Orange blossoms appear to be the
favorite flower of the brides an,
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1929-06-07

the favorite drink of the bridegroom.
The brides father generally gives her
away. No one gives the groom away.
If anyone did there probably would
be no wedding. Most bridegrooms
look sad and worried. Not at the
prospect that is ahead but rather at
the thought of what they are suppos-
ed to leave behind. The morning
after the wedding the bride is sur
prised and slightly hurt to find upon
reading the paper that there has been
no epidemic of male suicides since her
wedding. And when she discovers a
few months later that one of her
most ardent admirers, who swore he
could not live without her, has gained
ten pounds she is little bewildered.
IF all the bodies of the defeated suit
ors who threatened to kill them
selves and did it were placed end to
end, they could be covered by post
age stamp. Indeed, many of them
decide after awhile that it is better
to have loved and lost than to have
loved and won. The kind of girl
who would marry a man to keep him
from killing himself would make an
ideal wife. She would believe any
thing
Still "here comes the bride"-by the
thousand.-Ex

BURLESQUE THEATER
VICTIM OF BOMBERS
One Believed Injured When Blast
Tears Away Masonry at En-
trance of Building.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September 25.-The Acad-
emy Theater, a burlesque house, at
Halsted and Madison streets, was
bombed last night after the evening
performance, but while chorus re-
hearsal was in progress on the stage.
Choristers and actors still in costume
ran to the street when the bomb tore
away masonry at the stage entrance.
One member of the chorus, first TO
reach the alley, said she saw a man,
his face bleeding, running away.
Leo Stevens. manager of the theater,
said the bombing was the direct ac-
ton" which had been threatened by
unknown persons ever since the theater
began producing burlesque last April.
He said he had received letters and
phone calls warning that he would be
taken for a ride" He attributed the
bombing to the theater's policy OF
charging less for seats than some other
houses in the neighborhood.
Another bombing occurred early to-
day. shattering windows and damaging
a three-stcry apartment building on the
North Side. No one was hurt, although
families living in the Is apartments ded
in alarm to the street. The bomb was
placed at the rear door of second
floor apartment occupied by the family
Of John Edgard. Edgard nor the own
er of the building could account for
the attack.

MCDONALD TO STAY
HERE FOR SIX DAYS
Half of Time Will Be Spent as
Presidents Guest at
White House.

President Hoover will have Premier
Macdonald of Great Britain as his
guest for three days during the latters
six days visit to Washington early next
month, and by the time they part COM
pany there is every reason to feel that
they will have discussed intimately vir-
tually every possible topic bearing upon
the relations between this country and
Great Britain.
The official program arranged for the
distinguished Briton while in this city.
made public late yesterday, is a full
one and will keep him moving rapidly
to carry it out to the letter, but ample
provision has been made for the Presi-
dent and Mr.. Macdonald to discuss a
great variety of subjects.
It Is known that Mr.. Hoover is hoping
to take the premier to his camp In the
Virginia mountains, possibly over the
week end. In that event they VIII
probably leave Washington during the
afternoon of Saturday, october 5. the
day after Mr.. MacDonald's arrival In
Washington.
Should the idea of a week end at the
camp be given up because. Of the cold
or rain, it is thought likely that there
will be a motor trip to the camp on
Sunday. Such an excursion would per-
NIT the premier to view that part OF
the Bull Run battlefield through which
the road to the Presidents camp ira
verses, also other historic spots and the
picturesque Virginia countryside. II
would be likely that the party would
draw up to some attractive spot along
the roadside on the return journey and
enjoy a picnic lunch. The Hoovers
