 Because the Encyclopedia and dictionary publishers have shown no professional interest in the breed, I offer in defini- tion that Character is a varia- tion on a man that walks up right, defes normal reasoning and is impelled by a force that is apparently half brain, half wit. Knowing a lot of charac- Eters is one of the more insidious occupational by-products of club direction overseas in that daily association can be habit forming like smoking opium, or picking the number or voting the straight ticket. You can learn to like it.
 A few of us were sitting around one morning in rehear- sel for bull session and some body started a reasonably sensi- ble discussion about incipient talent and the opportunities for and the advantages of develop ing it with consideration of eco- homie law, social change, and MT. Bilbo, when this particular character took over.
 ''I know a little kid back home," he said. "Got plenty, of talent this kid. Draws, he does. Draw anything. Just look at it, wave a pencil and he has got it. He is a kind of relative. We'll not exactly a relative. He is my sisters boy friends nephew. At least he used to be my sisters s boy friend but he came home from the army, took off that "A uniform and fell into a mad, bad drape and came to call. Sis took one look at him and the bells tolled. She s going with some guy who works in a hospital now, an interne. I don't know why. Those guys don't make no dough- ..-
 "What about the kide"
 "Like I say, this kid is only a little shaver but he sure can draw. When I get back I'm going to see his folks and buy piece of him. Send him to school. Get him trained just like Henny Prices folks did |him. Henny used to live next door when he was a kid. Lots older than me he was but they tell me that when he was seven years old his folks missed Hen- ny for four or five hours one day. They looked all over the neighborhood for him. When they finally found him he had been down in the cellar with his mas new alarm clock taking it apart. They gave him a ser mon and sent him to bed but it didn't do much good except next day they found him back in the cellar trying to put the clock back together again. A few days later, Henny's mother and his teacher met on the street and they had a long talk. They decided to watch the kid kinda carefully.

AFL Pointers Win
81 Hourly Wage

Washington (FP)-An arbitrator's
award of 16 cents an hour increase
to painters and decorators in Manhat-
tan and the Bronx, N. Y. was approx
ed Sept. IL by the National Wage
Sterilization Board to bring their rate
to a 81 per hour figure. Industry
members Of the WSB dissented.
The decision covers 5000 members
of the Brotherhood of Painters, Dec
orators & Paperhangers and gives an
equivalent of 8.7 per cent increase to
paperhangers.
Although the WSB majority held
that the increase was move toward
the reestablishment of parity between
rates for plumbers, carpenters and
electricians, industry members ex-
pressed fears it would lead to de-
mands for increased rates from other
crafts.
Carpenters in the New York City
area are working under an agreement
of January, 1916, giving them $2.10;
electricians, $2.25. This contract con-
tains no provision for adjustments
equal to that received by other crafts
during the life of the agreement.

Trenton PofferS
Poy Tribute To
Departed Brother

Trenton, N. J.-Brother Anton
Weiss, veteran Trenton potter and an
employee of the Scammell China
Company for the past thirty-nine
years, died recently. In his honor the
members of Local Union 35 at their
last meeting stood with bowed heads
in moment of silent prayer for the
departed brother.
Bro. Weiss is survived by his wife,
two daughters and brother, Joseph
Weiss. Funeral services were held
from the Immaculate Conception
Church with many members of the
local attending.
The recent war has brought many
discouraging aftermaths, among them
the gnawing fear that, like the last
postwar period, the glory and honor
shown the soldiers (while they were
soldiers) will turn to a grudging
acknowledgement 'that they did a
good job, but the wars over" The
serious problem of housing shortage
