CONVENTION CALL
OF the Ohio State Fedora
ton of Labor

Greetings! AS you know, the 1923
convention of the Ohio State Fedora
tion of Labor did not set time and
place for the holding of the 1929 con-
vention, but referred the matter to
the executive board of the federation,
with instructions to set the time and
place for the holding of the conven-
ton.
The executive board Of the Ohio
State Federation of Labor met in
Columbus, April 29-30, at which time
it set Tuesday, November IL, as the
time for the convening of the 1929
convention of the Ohio State Fedora
tion of Labor, and selected Column
bus as the convention city
The month of November was Sc
lected to meet the desires of the
building trades state organizations.
The time set-Tuesday, November Is
was agreeable to them. (Tuesday
November II, was selected instead of
Monday, November II, because the
latter date is Armistice Day, and a
legal holiday in Ohio.)
The convention should be able to
complete it's work by Friday noon, No
yember Is. 1t is of great Importance
that this year every affiliated organ
;,at;on which can send a delegate do
so.
Columbus, Ohio, was selected as the
convention city primarily because the
trade unionists of no city in Ohio have
asked for the convention in 1929.
Fraternally yours,
THOS. J. DONNELLY,
Secretary-Treasurer
Ohio State Federation of Labor.

"REDS" ALWAYS FAIL;
NEVER WIN A STRIKE

Charlotte, N. C.-"There is not one
case in our records to show that
communists ever won a strike" said
Charles G. Wood, United States de-
partment of labor conciliator.
There is handful of "reds" in
this section who are indulging in
their wild talk that places them on
the front page of newspapers.
"The communist movement does not
fit into the south any more than it
does in any other locality" said Mr..
Woods. "Its leaders talk about help
ing the workers and promise much
in the way of better conditions and
hours of labor, but these promises are
never fulfilled"
No man ever lived long enough to
get even with this big world of ours.

They speak your
language

There was time when you had to take an in
tcrpreter into the store with YOU when you went
shopping, few hundred miles from home. The
things they had for sale were hard to recognize.
Even familiar products were sold in strange
form, and under queer names.
1T was one of the disadvantages of travel that
had to be taken along with the pleasures.
Nowadays the millions of Americans who 20
visiting their neighbors, North, South, East and
West, encounter no such difficulty. The pictures
que beauty, the quaint customs that make other
sections of the country different and delightful
have all their old appeal. You can still hear mel
low mission bells in California. You can eat ter
rapinin Baltimore, or sleep in Vermont farm
house under an Ethan Allen quilt. But in any of
these localities you can buy your favorite toilet
soap, or breakfast cereal, or automobile tires as
readily as in your own town.
The trade marks and the packages speak YOUR
language. National advertising has made good
brands of merchandise uniformly known from
coast to coast.

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT

Thrift insures against failure anC
possible dependency in old age.
Those who practice thrift faithfully
may be sure that they will not en-.
tirely fail. They may not gain world
renown or immense wealth; they may
not become possessors of great power
but they may be certain that they
will occupy respected places in the
affairs of men.
Advantages of thrift are too little
appreciated. One great tragedy of life
is the dependency of old age, the pos
sibility of which often causes heart
breaking worry and needless appre-
hension.
On the other hand, there is constant
happiness and much contentment OF
mind to those who practice thrift as
a practical insurance against old age
dependency.
There is whole world of difference
between the outlook of those who are
making no provision for the future
years and those who are slowly, stead
lily building up their personal re-
sources. The difference is so great
that one wonders how it is possible
for any sensible person to drift along
to certain failure when a compare
lively small effort and sacrifice will
place them on the roadway leading to
absolute independence.
The practices of thrift carry certain
personal Inconvenience. They mean
the giving up of certain pleasures and
comforts. But how much better it is
to give up few of these things dur
ing the years when we are strong and
In good health than to face poverty
and distress when old years are upon
us!
Thrift is an investment in happi-
ness that pays limitless returns.
Present pastimes last for day and

| st. Paul, Minnesota. H e a ] h
authorities today call upon the
grown-up boys of Minnesota to go out
and play baseball with their children
The Minnesota State Medical associa-
| tion declares that playing baseball is
not only splendid exercise but one
which relaxes the mind and gives the
players something else to think about
Baseball on the back lot is not for
the boys alone but for the fathers
declared the bulletin of the State
Medical society issued recently. The
bulletin declares that if more people
moved lawns and chopped wood and
played baseball, we would have
healthier men in the nation.
The growing boy. and the grown
boy too, needs exercise in order to
keep his health up to par" declares
the bulletin. Exercise can be taken
in many moving a lawn or
chopping wood is exercise, but to be
of the greatest benefit exercise must
have something in it in addition to
mere bodily motion. There must be
some joy in the doing of it, Baseball
answers all the requirements for good
exercise; it's played out in the open
air; although strenuous at times there
are intervals of rest between the per-
iods of more violent exertion; and
last but by no means least in import
ance, it brings a whole-souled joy to
the boy in his play. Right here let
me say that man is nothing but a
boy grown up, and whatever is said
to the bOys-for this talk is particu-
larly for them - can be applied to
their big brothers and their fathers
as we'll.
Even if we can't all be good ball
players, we can all get some fun and
some mighty good exercise out of the
game. However, in this as in all
sports we must be careful not to over
do. Don't start in and Immediately
try to pitch full nine-inning game
the first time you get out on the dia-
mond. Take things easy. The mus
cles that you use playing ball are not
used too much ordinarily, and if you
overdo the first time out you may
produce muscle injury that will last
for long time.
mot only is baseball a splendid
physical exercise-it helps the mind
as well. After a hard day in school
or at work, few hours on the base
ball diamond will relax your mind
and give you something else to think
about.
Zone thing that should not be lost
sight of is that not every boy is phys
ically fit to play baseball, and before
he tries it he should be examined by
his family physician to make sure
that there's nothing wrong with his
heart or lungs and that he is strong
enough to play.
and now a word for the grown-up
boys! Most of you are too fond of
getting your exercise sitting in the
grand stand and watching others.
That's better than staying indoors, to
be sure, but moderate amount of
active participation is still better
