Much Silly Talk About
Those "Cood Old Days"

Folks must be joking when they re-
fer to the good old days. Without 60
ing back to pioneer times many can
recall something about them.
We used kerosene lamps which were
dirty and required refilling. Now we
touch button. We kept team of
horses in a smelly stable and fed them
three times a day besides acting as
groom. Now we spring the self-starter
and away we go on a tireless steed.
We split kindling and split wood and
carried coal, an endless job. Now In
many cases the heating plant is auto
matte. And the cooking arrangements
are well-nigh perfect.
Women spent much time making
dresses and hats and then they often
looked dowdy. Now the stores pro-
vide both much more cheaply and
much better in every way. Same way
with women's clothing of all kinds.
Foods, timed, bottled and packed, are
better and more sanitary than in the
old days of home preparing.
Because Of great progress our physi-
ical well-being has been improved. Our
mental appetites can more easily be
appeased. There is something wrong
In the outlook of any person who
seems to hunger for the good old days

Ancient English Oak

Cowthorpe oak is said to be the old

Family Herald. Records say that 1t
is about one thousand six hundred
years Of age. Taking root near the
great Roman road, some three miles
from Wetherby, it became one Of the
mightiest oaks in England On one
occasion 100 children gathered in it's
hollow trunk. In 1912 the tree was es-
timated to contain IA tons Of timber,
the trunk was 60 feet in circumfer-
ence, 1t was 43 feet high, and it's main
branch SO feet 6 inches long. But
where once cit is said) boughs spread
over half an acre, there remain only
its huge gaunt limbs. Every spring,
however, green leaves still appear
among the topmost branches, and
workmen are doing what they can to
keep the giant alive for few more
years.

Fellowship Boasts of
Allentown Strike Breaking

to the UT.W. and the American Fed
Grafton of Full Fashioned Hosiery
chiefs, engaged in elaborate intrigues
with ministers and police and took
part in the U.TW. fake picketing. AL
his efforts were, he admits himself,
directed at preventing militancy by
the strikers, even though they we're
attrociously attacked by the police,
and to getting the strike ended on
any terms whatsoever so long as the
American Federation of Full Fa-
shioned Hosiery Workers, was estab-
lished in the mills.
Wage cuts mean nothing TO the
Fellowship, In its annual report it
corroborates the fact that the Fell
lowship itself has cut wages of its
Office workers 20 per cent. Its report
shows it did this instead of reducing
salaries Of its big officials, and 1t is
known that the income of the Fell
lowship which comes from the scab
textile mill owners was not reduced
this year.
