ELECTRIC SCORE BOARD
FOR WORLD SERIES

Following his custom of several
years standing, Manager Earle Eve
land of the opera house, has a
baseball score board in front of the
opera house, for the world series.
The board this year is an electric
one, and seems almost human. Mr..
Eveland's operator, Mr.. Wingier,
wired the board, and Mr.. Harry Tor
bert, local sign painter, gave the
board it's artistic touch. The radio
is furnished by the Twin City Elec-
trio company, and the Miller furni-
ture furnished the chairs. 1t goes
without saying, the many baseball
fans keenly appreciate such service,
which they enjoy gratis.

last as government guarantees OF the
right of workers to organize.
The news is welcome to workers
all over the world; and is rather un-
expected. The Belgian government,
described as socialist, has been much
more severe with the strikers in that
country than the French government
was in the far wider and equally rad
ical strikes in France. Only four or
FIVE heads were cracked in France
during the disturbance, and these were
not fractured by police batons. In
Belgium, on the other hand, armored
cars have been used, police have dis
persed crowds with clubs, so workers
were arrested at Liege, and two were
put under martial law.
Translated into American money,
the minimum wages agreed on in Bel
gium come to about a dollar day.
Small enough, but it serves as foun-
dation on which better wages can be
built.
