them useful to our thinking we have
to know the idea in many forms-in

branch of the Laughing Brook, for In
common with most of the Green Forest
people, he had long ago learned that
in certain part of the Green Forest
he was comparatively safe from hunt

Farmer Brown allowed no hunting and
trapping on his land. So all through
the Autumn Bobby had been content
to remain where he knew he was safe.
Tonight, however, he could not resist
the temptation to wander up this
branch of the Laughing Brook.

5 ARRESTED AS
DURABLE STRIKE
CONTINUES SOLID
Boss Complains His
Scabs Are Scared
By Pin'5etS


The Durable ~. md Die workers
are continuing their strike against
the lockout and carry on their pick
citing in the face of vicious police ter
ror. Monday eight workers were ar
rested for not obeying the orders of
the cops to stop picketing. The rest
of the strikers refused TO be intimi-
dated and dared The COPS to arrest
them also. This they did not do, and
the picketing went on.
Tuesday the police tried the same
tactics, again without guccess. When
the sergeant ordered the strikers not
to walk back and forth in front of
the shop, they openly defied him,
insisting upon their right to picket.
Seeing the determined attitude OF the
workers the police did not carry out
their threat to pull them in.
The boss is growing frantic at the
inability of the cops and paid dicks
to scare the workers off The picket
line. Because of the nlilitarcy of the
picScts many scahs refuse to come IN
each day, even on those days when
The police escort is large enough to
conduct them safely past the picket
line. This, the boss complained to
the cops, makes II impossible for him
TO get steady crew of scabs to carry
OIL halfway normal production.
