Potters Well Represented In
Labor Day Pdrdde and
Demonstration
GROSNELL, CHIEF

Wheeling, w. Va.-One of the big
gest and best Labor Day Parades ever
to be held in the city Of Wheeling was
witnessed by throngs of people who
lined the main streets to view the dec
Grated floats and representatives of or
ganized labor.
While the number Of potters in the
line of march was not what it should
have been, nevertheless, Local Union
No. 6, with four large "Buy American"
signs urging the general public to pur-
chase domestic products, especially
American made tableware, proved to
be a feature of the parade
All local unions and central bodies
were represented with Roy Grosnell,
president of the Building Trades
Council acting as chief marshall.
Brother George Grimm, captained the
potters' division.
All members of Local Union No.
are requested to be present at the next
regular meeting Of the local on Mon
day, September 19, as business matters
Of Importance will be discussed and a
full attendance is required.
We are glad to welcome Brother

Working Women;
Old-Age Insurance
Covered BY Social
Security Act on Sune
Terms as Men

Women are covered by the Social
Security Act on the same terms as
men. That goes without saying. But
lin one way-a curious paradoxical
way-working women come off COM
paratively better than working men
under the acts old-age insurance pro-
gram.
This happens for the very reason
that women, as rule, earn less than
men and work shorter time. That
may not seem to make sense, but it
does, and for this reason:
The old-age insurance plan is
weighted in favor of the workers who
earn the least. They get the most for
their money when it comes to old-age
benefits.
Benefits do not take the place Of
better wages, of course. Nobody would
say that. The point here is that even
with very low wage, a woman can
build up an old-age benefit under the
Social Security Act which will keep
her from being dependent when she is
old.

goes to work in store or an office
or a factory when she leaves high
school and works until she marries-
say years later. Suppose she aver
ages SIS week during those years.
If she never earns another cent as long
as she lives, she will have built up a
claim to a Government check for
$15.75 a month, beginning when she
is IS. Add that to her husbands earn
ings on his insurance, and it will help
out considerably in their later years.
Even part-time wages, or wages for
occasional work, if the job is covered,
count toward old-age benefits. Home
workers-wortaen who work at home
for manufacturers or contractors
making baby's garments, bedspreads,
quilts, lace, jewelry, toys, artificial
flowers, and many other things we buy
in the city stores-these women, too,
are covered by this law. Many Of them
have work enough to make only 5000
a year, all told.

Purchase Of Chedp
Goods Doorns u. S.
Millions Of Dollars Lost To
American Workers
Each Yedr
DEMAND UNION LABEL

Washington, D. c. (ILNS).-A con-
yincing plea for the buying of union
made products, coupled with warn
ing against the disastrous results of
purchasing cheap labor goods from
abroad, featured a Labor Day radio
address by l. NJ. Ornburn, secretary
treasurer of the Union Label Trades
Department, American Federation of
Labor.
Another feature was warning
against the growth Of paternalistic
control of industry and labor by gov
ernment agencies.
millions of dollars in wages" said
Ornburn, "are lost to American work
ers as the result of purchases of un-
fair and foreign-made merchandise.
The union label is the best guarantee
that products are made by unionized
firms in the United States and Canada.
Patronize unionized American indus
tries. Buy American! Demand the
union label on all goods and the shop
card and button for all services.
' Warns of "Tailspin'
III, on the Ocner hanQ, the Amerl-
can consumer fails to buy union label
products, and instead purchases mer-
chandise made by cheap labor in Eu-
rope and the Orient, America will take
another tailspin, spiralling into the
depths of depression from which we
shall never recover"
The speaker emphasized the value
of union label buying in promoting
the organization of labor, saying:
every union-earned dollar spent
for union label goods and union serv-
ices is vote for collective bargain
ing agreements. Promises of political
candidates cannot bring you the prac-
tical results that can be obtained
through the collective purchasing of
union label and union-made American
products and the united patronage of
union firms that employ service trades.
Danger of Too Much Control
"The buying of union label and
union-made products and the patron
age of union services are a continual
boycott against foreign and unfair
products. They are perpetual strike
against non-union working conditions" "
Ornhurn pointed out that it is the
purpose of collective bargaining to

There will always be home life.
1t may not be a home life within

Of diverse interests. each child with

The world is going through CAD

of home that is suffering, not the
real home itself, for that home is
deep in the hearts of the parents

bricks and lumber. That's where our
standards are changing. There is
no reason why an apartment in q
crowded city cannot be just as much

POLITICS have had but little time
in my life. the largest portion
OF which has been devoted to things
purely domestic. But. do think that
the young mother today should study
political trends and thoughts as they
affect her family.
There is one final thing I want
to say to young mothers:
Find yourself q hobby, aside from
your duties Get an outlet for your

kept up, after q fashion, with my

before. While my life will never be
as full as it was before, it will never
be an empty yearning for expression.

awake had been something Of job
too. Now. just as he was getting
ready to relax, up pops that man.
1t wasn't that Pups had anything
against milkmen as an institution
This was entirely a personal matter.
If that man insulted him again he
was going to remove a pants leg.
The gentleman OF the milk truck
picked up two bottles, large and
small. and started down the drive at
a walk. Pups sat. Whereupon the
bearer Of the bottles flourished one
in the dogs face, and made as if to
crack him with the other. Pups
leaped and the man started to run.
Back up the drive they clattered,
with a distinct loss Of yardage on
the part of the milkman. BY the
time he'd reached his haven, the
truck, he was minus pants leg.
He left the bottles at the driveway
entrance and had the dairy phone
to the effect that the place was in
tested with vicious dogs. Meanwhile,
Pups was shaking paws with a new
representative of the dairy business:

mer that we should like to mention
them frequently. especially In view Of
the fact that there are so many de-
lightful ones on the market. There is
one that has an elusive fragrance like
the haunting theme of sonata.
Douse 1t on generously after the bath.
1t will lift up your tagging spirits and
soothe your tired muscles. All eau de
colognes will do this trick for you,
and in addition they now have the
added feature of fragrance being
added to the cologne itself. This par
ticular cologne Is the first one to be
offered by an old established firm
long noted for the purity of its other
products.
SOMETHING new, with an interest
ing story, is a revival Of a custom
dating back to Victorian days. At.
that time when young SWANS came
accounting the young people were al
lowed the luxury of the seldom-used
parlor. often quite musty with its mo-
hair-covered furniture and heavy
draperies. To overcome this stuffy at
mosphere it was the custom to open
jar of rose leaves and other fragrant
dried petals and herbs and let the aro-
matte mixture watt its spicy sweet
ness through the room. The bowl in
which the mixture was kept was called
the "potpourri."
Going back into history, we find that
the early Egyptians used potpourri
also. Both Egyptians and Greeks had
great faith in the health-giving quail
ties of the doors from sweet herbs, and
for this reason often built their houses
so that one Of the living rooms opened
on an herb garden. From these herbs
each family made its own recipe for
the blending of the dried blossoms,
which they kept in lovely jars, and
guarded the secret closely. These jars,
which often became priceless heir
looms, were usually set in inches in the
wall Of the master room.
The modern version of the potpourri
is the newest offering Of one OF the
leading manufacturers OF perfumes.
The carefully selected herb and flower
blossoms come tightly packed in an
ivory toned ceramic jar of classic de-
sign with sculptured lotus flower on
the tip-top. This is an excellent idea
for the guest room or to use on special
occasions In the drawing room, and it
is always useful on the closet shelf to
give delicate fragrance when the
door is opened. 1t makes an ideal gift
at any time.

Right Place
To Tie Back
Depends Entirely
On Their Length
And Their Type.
BY EMILY POST,

DEAR MRS. POST: Do you rec
ommend tying back window cur
tains high up on the window frame
or low down?
Answer-Those that fall to the floor
tie back at the windowsill level, and
those that are short are tied back
about a third Of the height OF the
lower sash. If the curtains are to be
tied much higher they must be very
full and draped across the upper part
OF the window in deep loop. Other
wise they look as though choking in 2
high collar. On the other hand, those
tied too low look hobbled around the
knees. The best way to decide upon
their height is to pin them back tenn
porarily on several windows and see
which one looks best.

gest hanging an unframed mir
ror in living room that has early
American furniture, or would this be
mixing periods unwisely? When did
the unframed mirrors come into being
or have they always been?
Answer-A framed mirror would be
more suitable with early American
furnishings. An unframed mirror /,
