Boy Finds Ready
Market For Herbs
Now Seldom Sold

Old-fashioned kitchen herbs
such as rosemary, thyme, sweet
marjoram, mint, chives, basil,
balm and burnet, which our
grandmothers used to such good
effects in their cooking, cannot
be obtained in most stores to-
day; fact which housewives re-
gret. A boy who lives outside a
small Virginia city has taken
advantage of this situation and
is growing these herbs to sup
ply demand from city house
wives who are his steady Gus
toners.
Other boys and girls can do
the same thing. It's an unusual
and profitable hobby. Here's
how this boy did it!
Having read in a newspaper
that such herbs are easily grown,
and that they thrive on indiffer-
ent soil almost anywhere in
North America, he wrote to the
Department of Agriculture at
Washington, D. c., requesting
information about them, and
growing directions. The De-
partment also told. him where he
could obtain seeds.
Spading up a twenty-five foot
square plot in an unoccupied
field the first year, he enriched
it slightly with lime, and in
early spring set out his seeds of
savory, chives, basil, balm, bur-
net, borage and sweet marjoram.
He also secured clippings of
tarragon, sage, rosemary and
spearmint, locally and from seed
firms. BY the middle of the
summer, two years ago, he was
ready to harvest.
While the herbs were growing
he canvassed housewives in the
better sections of the city, find
ing them eager to buy punches
of the fresh herbs and even
more interested in later secur-
ing a supply of dried ones for
winter use. So in addition to
selling the fresh herbs at from
10 to 25 cents a bunch, he gath
cred surplus leaves and flowers
which he tied in small punches
and dried in the shade as direct
ed.
The annuals must be planted
from seed every spring; those
from cuttings grow year after
year. All the care necessary is
to see that they get occasional
water, and that the topsoil is
loosened slightly every week
and after heavy rains. Most of
them grow best if clipped often,
mint especially. Incidentally,
this boy has a demand for all the
mint he can grow from house
wives who use it to add zest to
iced tea and other cold drinks.
This business has been work
ed up entirely by utilizing part
Of the growers spare time after
school and on Saturdays. He has
a list of steady customers, who
iii turn recommend him to 9TH
ers, so his business has every
chance of growing.

Organization is for the worker
the driving impulse for better
conditions, for better existence
and for more inspiration in his
efforts to attain these things.
Organization shows the worker
the road which he has to follow
in order to benefit from this fun
damental teaching-and princi-
pie of all progress.
Education of the masses of the
workers to awaken within them
a clear consciousness in the
sphere of economic and indus
trial developments will only be
possible by their own activity
within the modern trades union
movement to convince themselves
as to the value of organization.
The power of any organization
is by no means to be found in
the numerical strength of it's
membership alone, but it rests
upon the solid conviction of it's
members that the active coopera-
tion of all of their concentrated
power solely forms the founda-
tion for success.
Indifferentism within the or
ganization is more dangerous to
it's existence than the indiffer-
entism of those who remain out
side the ranks of union labor.
The individual worker, as a
member of the union, who sin
cerely cherishes his lasting well
fare, and the safe existence of
his organization, will, at all
times, be ready to actively help
in the furtherance of the inter
ests Of his organization.
The constant ascent of organ
ization proves conclusively that
the latest phases of develop
ments in the movement rests upon
a healthy and sound basis, and
that it is of greater advantages
to future progress when we
thoroughly consider all matters
connected with improvements of
working conditions instead of
acting on the spur of the mo-
ment. No wage Garner is doing
his full duty to himself unless
he identifies his own interests
with those of his fellow worker,
and this can be accomplished by
joining a union-the obvious way
to make common cause with
them to strengthen organized
labor's influence for the best
ends.
There was time when the
strength of an organization was
used only as a weapon of de-
fense. But this has been over
come by the unions putting into
effect agreements whenever
possible in the settlement of
wage scales and shop conditions.
Strikes and extended cessations
of work are only resorted to in
exceptional cases and wherever
the arrogant position taken by
the employers leaves no other al
tentative.
Speaking of wage scales, the
erroneous statement has been
made by those not in possession
of the facts that members of lab
or unions are not allowed to re-
ceive more than the scale of
wages set by the union. This is
not true fact, as the scale sub
mitted to the employed by the
union is the minimum scale. A
member is not allowed to work
for less than the scale of wages

Garage Serves
Dual Purpose

A dual purpose can be served
by a garage attached to a mod
ern home. In addition to being
used to house the family car,
the garage can be valuable as a
play space for children.
Building or remodeling a ga
rage to provide large windows,
admitting ample light even when
the doors are closed will make
the car-storage space a cheer
full place for children to play on
rainy days. Arrangements can
be made for table tennis and
other indoor games. With the
modern trend toward making the
garage a part of the house itself
comes the added advantage that
children can go to play in the
garage without stepping out in
to the rain.
Considerable wear and tear on
the home can be saved during
bad weather if the children have
a playroom to which they can
go.

Tests for SOundness

Alternate wet and dry condi-
tions tend to render unsound the
structural and other wooden
members in a building. The
ends of joists embedded in a
masonry foundation wall may
become unsound if the walls of
the basement are damp and
poorly ventilated.
AS a result of a leak in the
roof or caves, similar damage
to other parts of the building
may occur, such as loosened or
deteriorated flashing.
A simple test will help deter
mine whether structural rein
forcements are necessary; the
wood may be tested by jabbing
it with the point of a penknife.
If it is soft and spongy or very
brittle it is likely repairs are
necessary, promptly. Badly de-
Perforated parts should be re-
placed and the basement of the
building should be properly ven-
tilated to prevent further de-
terioration.

agreed upon by the union and
employer, but this does not pro-
hibit him from receiving more

At any rate young Cartnal
liked the business of making
things-shaping spouting out of
tin, applying roofing-in fact he
enjoyed working at anything of
a constructive and enduring ma
ture. He liked it so much that
he learned to be top-notch me-
chanic in that field of industry
and plugged along for eighteen
years with the same firm.
In 1920 he had put aside
enough of this worlds goods to
start in business for himself on
South Fourth street, in which
location the firm flourished for
the next ten years.
In the meantime Mr.. Cartnal
found time to marry and raise
family. Four boys were born,
all of whom seemed to be en-
dowed with that same yearning
to build and construct, to make
things that would last through
the years. They followed in the
footsteps of their father, and all
four today are affiliated with
him in the flourishing business
in the location the firm moved
to ten years ago at 80 West
Main street.
The combination of father and
four sons in business together,
is just bit unusual in itself
and the fact that all are work
ing together in harmony is
something to be remarked on
and commended.
The sons are Jess, Delbert,
Richard and Bob Cartnal. Be-
sides the five members of the
family it is necessary to still
hire extra help to take care of
the ordinary run of business, so
Paul Jones and Arthur Hiles
are also on the payroll.
After all, an organization of
this kind requires not only the
workmen and the boss, but a
good bookkeeper and someone
to act as the "hello" girl.
When customers want to call the
firm, No. 28864, they are greet
ed by the appealing voice of
Miss Doris Wilkin-and conf
dentially we don't think they
could have picked better "of-
ficial greeter."
When asked as to the approx
mate number of buildings the
firm had helped to finish in
Newark and Licking county, Mr..
Cartnal found that the figure
would be to high to immediate
ly compute. However he did
mention a few, among them the
J. w. Camelin residence, Tele-
phone company building, both in
Newark and Granville; the Elks
home, Criss apartments, Manual
Arts buildings, the new Gutliph
& Henderson funeral home, the
Hanover high school, and hun
dreds of smaller buildings and
residences, which can boast of
Cartnal spouting, roofing, sheet
metal work and furnace installa-
tion, both old and new-as we'll
as countless repair jobs.
1t is apparent that the name
of Cartnal will be associated
with the sheet metal and roofing
business in Newark for a good
many years to come, and with
four sons to carry on we
wouldn't be surprised but what
E. E. Cartnal will have the
| pleasure of seeing grandsons,

bit to make sure that Licking

Usher Slashed

William Murray, usher at the

cut under the left eye Saturday
evening, Dec. 28, when he was

Bonner, South 3Oth street, who
used a can opener. Bonner with
two other lads were trying to
gain admittance on a fire es-
cape, when Murray attempted to
stop them. The young man was
taken to the county Jail and
turned over to juvenile authOri-
ties, charged with assault and
