some few of whom got back when
| the company adopted the NRA.
Take a little time off and inves-
| tigate the methods of the light COM
pany and the MIRA. How many got
laid off and rehired at less wages?
How many got actual cuts Gf what
1 hear is true) ? How many got their
hours cut, with the hourly wages
remaining the same? Is that IN
creasing their purchasing power?
Find out how many loyal en-
ployes there are. I know Of but very
few, and they either are covering
up, or are nertz. Nothing else can
be expected. Company heads tell
us how much they think of us,
which is a lot by the way, and then
act differently.
The tactics of our little straw
bosses are very demoralizing. But
most Of this simply is passed on
from the big bosses.
Last year 1889 we were forced
to take fifteen days off without pay,
and in 1882, they made us take
fourteen days off and got locked
for fifteen. We had to donate one
days pay to the poor company, due,
I suppose, to the increased operat-
ing expenses. The men had to
double up to fill the temporary
| vacancies.
Watch when the company has to
lower its rates, which I hope they
will have to do, and see if they
don't cut our wages more.
It's Just another case Of industry
being loyal to our President and 10
the country.

COMMUNISTS ACTIVE IN
CWA, SAYS WRITER

BY William E. Lemon.
The Communists have been busy
lately distributing their literature
to the CWA workers, but their
propaganda is falling on barren
ground. 1t states directly that the
President and General Johnson are
for starvation wages, and were
forced into this by the hunger
march on the Capitol under the
Hoover administration and by their
the Communists activities, and
by the capitalists, who wish to hand
out few crumbs of bread to satisfy
the unemployed masses and keep
them quiet,
Only the most ignorant and I'M
read men will fall for this false
statement. A child can see it is
unadulterated bull" and we have
a President today who not only is
human, but is making history and
will be in the class with Washing
ton, Lincoln and Wilson.
I believe in freedom of speech and
the press. So do our present city
officials for they let these gentlemen
rant, rave and howl every Sunday
afternoon in Camp Sullivan last
summer. Being a good Democrat, I
believe in majority rule while Com
munists teach minority rule by
blood and war.
I am Socialist enough to believe
in federal and municipal ownership
of public utilities, the earnings to
relieve our present real and personal
tax.
But We o1v'ovs must n~"cerve our
rights of majority rule, freedom of
speech and the press, and let our
street corner soap-box orators rave
on. No country is complete with
out its radicals, and we all knew
our President has accomplished
VIC 1~-- in the last year, and was a
real Santa Claus on Christmas.

SO McCarron went in. He didn't come
out again. either. Hours later, after the fire
had been put out, they found him, lying
dead in the third-foor hall, the girl in his
arms
Somehow he had got to the top Of the
building and got the girl and started down
with her Getting her out had been too
much for him. The cop and the little girl,
her arms about his sunburned neck, had
died together.
About the only thing to add is that next
day a whole flock of youngsters called at
the station house to ask when his funeral
would be held One of his jobs had been to
handle traffic in front of their school; he'd
helped them across the street every day for
months, and he was their friend.
That's all the story. There's not much to
it; 50 little. indeed, that it's hardly worth
telling. A cop tries to save kid, fails, dies;
what Of it?
What of it? Nothing That's just the
point McCarron simply did what any cop
would do-gave up his life without hesita-
ton when his job pointed that way.
That's one of the things you buy when you
spend your tax money on police force. It's
a thing to remember when you cast up the
account of the average copper.

Best Book

BY WILLIAM A. GEARHART
If you would choose the choicest
book,
Select the one that's soiled and
worn;
And as you finger through its leaves
You'll note how they are curled and
torn.
By use this book acquired these
marks
Which show on every leaf and page.
As eager eyes have scanned the text
And gained its wisdom f the age.
Then if you'd choose the choicest
man,
Select not one who looks 50 print
But pick the man who shows some
wear
And has the marks Of use on him.

EMPLOYE OPENS FIRE
ON LIGHT COMPANY
Rr a Times Raadar

By Times Reader.
Why are operating expenses of
the indianapolis Power and Light
Company increased? Where are
those increased operating expenses?
To our (the employees belief, the
only increase that possibly could
have occurred is in the reduction
of the efficiency of some of the
plans due to the depression, and
that surely must have been made
up by the 10 per cent cut that the
whole I. P. & L. organization got
in wages and salary July l, 1882.

that we will not"

VXTHEN it comes to women,
VVman always expects the i'm
possible. Today, for instance, we
have a communication from a
young Kentucky gentleman who
explains how girls should behave
if they hope to attract the at
tention and gain the love of the
opposite sex.
The modern man." he writes,
likes a virtuous girl, but she
should not be too rigid. She can
drink, but not too much. She can
smoke, but never to excess And
she must pet, but at the same time
maintain certain attitude of
dignity and decency."
There! The case is stated
clearly. We all can agree, I think,
that it gives very truthful idea
of what the average man ex-
poets Of a woman. Briefly, she
can act as if she were loose, pro-
vided she remains respectable and
spotless. She must lead a man
on, but never quite to give in to
him. To allure and repel at the
same time is an art she must cuI-
tivate and, though holding fast to
virtue. she should assume all the
mannerisms Of vice.

If you are a sufferer from head

read this enthusiastic letter from
Mr. Mcintyre:
For long time my system was
not in very good working order.
But since eating Kellogg's ALL
BRAN, have regained my appetite
and my lost weight. And my system

lieve ordinary constipation. 1t also
contains vitamin B and iron for

You'll enjoy this delicious and

it with milk or cream-or use often
N cooking.
Just eat two tablespoonfuls daily

These appeal to youngsters very
much. Place ball of ice cream
on a plate, dip a toothpick or
small brush in melted chocolate
and paint on eyes, nose and
mouth, then use an inverted cone
for a hat and you have a jolly
clown.
Do not put uncovered bottles of
milk or cream in the refrigera-
tor. Milk and cream readily abb
sorb oders when left uncovered.
When buying broccoli, select
stalks that are not blossomed out.
They have a better flavor.
Never put bread into bread
box until it has cooled, or it will
become soggy.
When putting away clean
clothes, place the freshly ironed
ones on the bottom Of the vari-
GUS piles. Then towels, handker-
chiefs, napkins, etc. will be used
in turn, and some will not wear
out more quickly than others.
Lemon juice, added to prune
and pineapple pies, gives them
an improved flavor.

The Word Climate

COME people say that the climate Of
the United States is each year
becoming more tropical Literally
that would be more "sloping!' The
derivation Of climate" is embodied in
the ancient Greek history Of the
earth's formation.
Through the French we have cli-
mate from the Latin china. climatis,
which was taken from the Greek xii
ma, from klinein, Ito slope" And 1t
was because of the supposed slope Of
the earth (from the equator to the
pole). which was thought to account
for the change Of climate in the vari-
GUS zones into which the ancients had
the surface of the earth divided. that
the term was given this significance.
