The Sense Of Glamour

When q man starts r~egretting the passing of the good
old days, and begins to remark that nothing IS quite
rs fine nowadays as it used to be, 1t is a fair sign that
he is getting old. Nevertheless, even a young man can
spot one or two ways in which the modern world has
fallen below the level of the world Of his grandfather.
Life has grown easier and safer, and in most ways this
has been all to the good; but there has departed, some
surround men and make life q richer and brighter affair
than it is today.
Captain John w. Thomson, Jr, that talented officer
of United States marines, recently wrote q biography Of
Jeb Stuart that illustrates the matter perfectly.
Jeb Stuart was Lees chief Of cavalry in the Civil! war.
He was a cavalry officer in the days when the cavalry
WAS the cavalry, when a general took his chances along
with the buck privates. and war still had an overtone
from the age Of chivalry; and merely looking at his
portrait, as Captain Thomson gives it, Is enough to
emphasize the passing Of the sense Of glamour.
Look at the mans picture-a young man. with q flow

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Dry Hands

Dry Hands
Question: Miss =. asks: Twill you
please tell me what causes my hands.
to be exceedingly dry-so dry they
often wrinkle in the palms? This is
mostly at night. Also, I have a crav-
ing for fresh fruit and cool tart
drinks-anything cold and juicy. I
have been this way for several years."
Answer: Satisfy your craving for
fresh fruit by eating nothing else for
a few days. This treatment will help
to correct the dryness Of your skin.
For temporary relief, rub cocoa-butter
on the skin. Use a small amount
over the entire body each night before
you retire.
Poppy Seed Oil
Question: l.. K. asks: Us there
an oil from poppy seed that may be
used as a salad oil, and is it a good
food?"
Answer: Poppy seed oil is popular
in parts of Europe as a table oil. 1t
is of a pale yellow color, practically
odorless, and has a very pleasing fla
vor. The inferior grades are used in
soap making and like products. AS
far as its food value is concerned, it
has no special merit.
Gaining Weight
Question: M. D. j. writes: Il have
been drinking milk to gain weight, a
pint for breakfast, a pint at 10 o'clock,
at 3 o'clock, and before retiring. Have
been drinking it this way for two,
months but do not seem to gains
much. Do I drink enough, and at
the right hours?"
Answer: If you take your milk
along with other foods you will only
bring on some disorder because OF
this overlooking. If you want to try
to gain weight through taking the
milk diet, it is necessary to give up all
other foods. Then take a glass OF
milk every half hour during the day,
which will give you about six quarts
daily. If you can drink this much
you are bound to gain weight, but it
might not be good weight, and may
leave you after you have stopped TAX
ing the milk as fast as you put it on
during the milk diet.

WE have Party members who make $40 per
week and pay so cents per month; others,
who make $50 per week and also pay so cents
per month
On the average the most active Party men,
bers are those who make less than $50 per
week. These comrades are overloaded with
Party work and always the first to con-
tribute to the endless collections. If study
is made it will show that some of these COM
rades give as high as Is per cent and more to
the labor movement as a whole, besides the
time they give to the revolutionary movement.
All of these comrades who work long hours
for the least wages are 100 per cent for the
Central Committee decision on the new dues
The Party members who on the average
make over $50 per week, usually show poor
attendance and interest in the Party. Some
of these members, while supporting the Party
line formally, will never submit to Party disci-
pline. Some of these men make from $50 to
$50 per week but when we take a collection
they either openly oppose or give dime or

(ContiRued)

During the long argument between A. f. of
l.. representatives and the strikers over the
strike on these terms, the workers, lacking
leadership to head up their opposition, became
confused and dazed by official oratory. But
whenever the settlement was re-read, there
were "boos" from the strikers. Finally, a
standing vote was called for, and silently the
workers rose and as silently marched from the
hall. They had accepted the settlement, but
not with a sense of victory, but of defeat and
with misgivings. Everywhere in the crowds
of workmen outside the hall there. were COM
ments: "They broke the strike" Its a SELL
out!" "There's holes in that agreement as big
as yore garage door-holes big enough to drive
hearse through" "Ths settlements like the
other. The company amt pinned down to any
thing. There's going to be discrimination"
The workers misgivings soon proved correct,
for scores were refused work, and the local
union is much weakened. A company union
is being organized, with management trying
through coercive and persuasive means, to get
their employees to Join and give up their real
union But the rayon operatives are needing
the words of one of their local leaders who
reminds them that "a COW needs her tail in fly
time. The experience of Elizabethton work
ers with the U. T. w. has been recently re-
peated il Greenville, S. C. and Marion, N c.,
where this union came in to take charge of
strike situations which had developed. The
U. T. W. organizer was booed down by Marion
mill hands, when he advised them to use less
militant tactics in their struggle, but to take
bibles and hymn books along with them to
the picket lines, instead.
strike settlement was made in Marion
which, like that in Elizabethton, was no settle
ment at all from the workers standpoint, but
complete give-in to the mill owners. Discri-
mnation against active unonists began mme-
diately, an so, like the Elizabethton workers,
the Marion workers took matters into their
own hands and went on strike the second time.
While picketing sthe mill, union ranks were
fired upon by the local sheriff and company
deputies, and six strikers were killed and 20
more wounded. Yet, so closely do the courts,
police and mill owners work together that not
a conviction was made, although the firing
took place in broad daylight and scores of eye
