IT'S ALL OFF

Word was received this week that
the Hamilton Beverage Company on
South C street would quit business
Saturday. The Hamilton Beverage
Company like many other breweries
throughout the country, thought they
could operate on the sale of near
beer, but realized lately that it can't
be done The closing of this plant
means the passing of one of Hamil-
tons thriving institutions where
many men were employed. With the
closing of the old brewery more la
boring men are thrown on the labor
market. Engineers, firemen, brewery
workmen and truck drivers will be
compelled to seek other jobs
Another achievement for the drys to
gloat over!

mean. yet they have continued these
old pagan customs, perhaps by force
of habits. and certainly for the amuse-
ment Of youngsters Mt Easter time.
Why Eggs Were Colored.
AS to the coloring of Easter eggs a
renglous encyclopedia says: Because
the use of eggs was forbidden during
Lent, they were brought to the table
on Easter day colored red to SYM
bolize the Easter Joy. This custom is
found not only in the Latin, but also
In the Oriental churches" Christians
are supposed to have adopted the egg
rolling custom to symbolic the resur-
rection, and the eggs were colored red
in allusion to the blood of redemption.
Yet, other colors were later intro
duced and now they have no special
significance except to make variety

amazing. No other governor favors
the prison contract system with its
exploitation of unfortunates, its un-
fair competition with free labor and
its fattening of private pocketbooks
at the expense of the public.
"No one knows what remuneration
is to be paid convicts for their labor.
The state board of control doesn't
know, neither does the governor The
contracts are vague upon that point.
AS nearly as / can calculate the pay
doled out by the exploiters will be
approximately 5 cents an hour"
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1929-03-29

There is the hazard that one may be
wrong on Easter morning, and yet 1t
seems, so far as recollection serves,
that Easter mornings commonly are
suited to the joyous significance of the
day. The sunshine loves the earth,
and fingers on it, and trees put forth
their leaves In tender haste, and shrub
and tree, after their fashion, are In
bloom. One would vow almost that
the cherries bloomed for Easter, and
that the ounce In the garden had put
forth in token Of the resurrection.
1t Is excellent, In all truth, that
Easter should fall as 1t does In this
region, and oven a broad belt Of the
planet. For the season is-shal we
not y?-synchronized with the mes
sage, and the mother earth cries out,
albeit dearly, that there Is no death,
but only the seeming thereof. You
will look long in months to come for
turf that Is greener than the sod of
Easter Sunday, for flowers that are
more innocent of hue and petal. And
If it be fair, as we Insist the morning
ought of right to be, you Will look
long for such another morning
For SO many, many days the earth
has slept, in that siumber which
feigns death. Seed and root in their
loan, dreaming OF time when q
touch should awaken them, and they
should rise to be with and OF the
world again-a world of sunshine and
laughter. Is there aught Of sadness In
this? There Is much of promise full
filled. For the seed quickens and the
fibers rouse once more, that Easter
shall be pleasant, and that lane and
lawn shall have leaf and flower and
bladed green. On all ordinary occa-
sions we have little faith In weather
prophecy-but this morning should be
blithe and sunny. 1t really should be,
for it Is Easter.-Portland Oregonian.

LEGISLATIVE LETTER No. 4
March %, 1929.

March %, 1929.
Affiliated Central Bodies,
Local Unions and
Legislative Committees.
Greetings! Your legislative agent
hoped that by this time he would be
able to report to you that some labor
legislation had been enacted into law
by the legislature, but has not been
able to do so. The legislature has
been in session eleven weeks, and not
{, single labor bill has succeeded in
emerging from a committee to which
it was referred, while some labor bills
have been killed in committee One
of the more important labor bills
killed in committee this week was
H. B. No. 299-Mr. Phillips, relating
to hours of labor and minimum wages
upon public works. The bargers
license bill--H. B. No. 62-was re-
ported favorably by the health COM
mittee, March 13, but has since been
referred to the finance committee.
II. B. No. 52-Mr Marshall, rela-
tive to yellow dog" contracts of en-
ployment, is still in the house commit
tee on judiciary, where it has been
for two months. You are asked to
write your senators and representa-
tives, and Governor Myers Y. Cooper,
asking why this legislation has not
been enacted, and urging that such
be done
S. B. 174-Mr. Herbert, providing
for increases in the amounts paid in
jured workmen and dependents of
those killed, is in the senate commit
tee on labor You should write your
senators and members of the com
mittee at once urging favorable con-
sideration of the bill and its passage.
Also write Governor Cooper.
S. B. No 243-Mr. Gillen, increas-
ing the scope of the occupational dis
ease workmen's compensation law, is
also in the senate committee on labor.
Your legislative agent is convinced
that this legislation can be passed if
labor will write the members of the
labor committee and its senators i'm
mediately, as well as Governor Myers
Y. Cooper

it, is advisable.
Address all communications intend

to the State Capitol, Columbus, Ohio.
Governor Cooper answered favor
ably last summer the first two of the
following questions. The candidates
for the legislature no doubt were ask

has right to expect legislation as
indicated by the answers received.

by the 1929 general assembly of Ohio
providing for more liberal appropria-
tions for the workmen's compensation
department, so that the employees
may receive more adequate salaries,
and the efficiency of the department
improved; and are you in favor of
the improvement of the terms of the
compensation law and the increasing
of the maximum awards named in the
law to more equitah.y compensate
those injured and the dependents of
those killed in industry?

Rabbit and
Egg Legend
Universal

JOYOUS Easter is here. After Sun
day school and church where special
Easter Sunday exercises make the
day more joyous, thousands and thou
sands of boys and girls will return
home and hunt for Easter rabbits and
eggs. Then the egg-r0lling contests
will begin. But this great sport for
the youngsters will not stop with the
close of the day. Easter Monday is
always a great day for the kiddies, If
they have any unbroken eggs left for
rolling. And there always seems to
be a reserve supply. Easter Monday
is a gala day for the youngsters OF
Washington, for on that day they go
to the White House grounds where
they roll their vari-colored eggs for
the President and first lady and, OF
course for their own entertainment.
Easter is now a Christian festival
In memory of the crucifixion and
resurrection of our Savior, but 1t had
a heather origin. 1t is relic of the
pagan festival OF spring celebrating
the reblrth of life after the dormant
period of winter. 1t was not until
325 A. D. that the Council of Nice
proclaimed Easter as the time for
celebrating the resurrection Of Christ.
The council also decreed that 1t should
be a movable feast which cannot be
earlier than March % or later than
April 25, and that 1t be determined
by the old paschal or Jewish lunar
month, always falling on the first
Sunday after the full moon on or next
after March 81 Thus, If the full moon
falls on Sunday, then Easter day Is
the next Sunday.
Easter Legends.
All Youngsters know about the rabbit
and eggs and their connection with
Easter. The Easter egg and the legend
OF the rabbit are universal. But how
did these symbols of this joyous festi-
val originate? The origin of egg-roll-
ing which most children enjoy so
much is supposed to have begun cen
turies ago from the practice of farm
ers rolling eggs over their lands to be
sure of abundant yields at harvest
time. This was because the egg was
the pagan emblem OF the terminating
of life of early spring. The children
are told that the rabbits lay the eggs,
and for this reason the latter are
nearly always hidden away in nests or
In flower beds in the yard and garden.
The rabbit is another pagan symbol
and has always been an emblem of
fertility. Modern people have lost
knOwledgs of what these symbols
