LABOR HAS PART IN NEW ORDER, WORKMEN TOLD
Warning Against Bolshevism Given by the Rev. E. E. Davis Before Labor Council. "I am not here to teach you but I am here to study with you for a short time the great problems that are confronting us today," said the Rer. E. E. Davis at the regular session of the Central Labor Council Thursday night. "We are all interested in the industrial situation. We have been studying it from 'all angles, and we wish to reach the right conclusion. "This nation has passed from an ag ricultural to an industrial nation. Having become a great industrial nation naturally there would spring up abuses. One of the great tendencies In the passing from one thing to another is the massing of the wealth in the hands of a few. This makes the problem greater and all the more serious. "Also there are the evils of selfishness, greed, class spirit and snobbishness. Selfishness Qreatest Evil "Selfishness is the great root of sin today. We have faced it in the industrial life of the nation. Along with J it there is a disposition to amass great fortunes. "There has come class spirit, and a feeling of superiority on the part of some. There has come a manifestation of snobbishness which we all loathe and which should be condemned everywhere. It is the damning and blisrhting sin of the day. "It Is coming more and more to the conscientiousness of the American neorile that there must be a more equitable portion of profits. The men , who helped to earn the profits have not shared them as they should. "A class struggle has sprung up in our nation, which is growing more fierce and serious on the part of some. Unrest is an evidence of progress. The unrest today is evidence that people are beginning to think a little for themselves. New Industrial Day "A new industrial day is dawnlnp. A better day is coming but in order that the new day may come there must of necessity be certain changes. We all will have a part in this new day and it is important that we play our parts well. "Industry must have proper regard for life. Men have been piven the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Have all men lived as thev should in industrial life? Have all men had a square deal? Have all men had an opportunity to earn a fair
living? "There are three stages of living. One is merely existing, the eecond is having the necessities, comforts and conveniences of life. Out of the second stage we go into the luxurious way of living. The two greatest perils are merely living and living in luxury. 4 "Individuals are like nations. When they pass to luxury they face a great peril. It requires strength to overcome this peril. Not all have learned the lesson. "One out of every ten persons is merely existing, it has been found out. Middle Class Best. "The middle class is the better class of citizens. It Is between the two extremes. The class that is the greatest menace Is that In which there are those people who are barely living. "The big thing in the world is making life. Men cannot make life when they are existing. "Health is an Important factor. Working conditions should be such that the health of men and women would not be impaired. Working conditions must be Improved People must have the proper nourishment Health is undermined because of lack of proper nourishment. "The fundamental instinct of life must be developed. They are self preservation, love, worship and loyallty. "In developing self preservation we must look toward self expression, the power of the Individual, self respect and self sacrifice. "Work, play, love and worship are the fundamentals of a nation and we must have time for all. "Industrial partnership and the necessity of readjustment are necessary to the new industrial day that is dawning, which means that the better working conditions and an equitable share of the profits. Part of the new day In industrial improvement is that man shall enjoy life. The partnership r Shall consist of the employer, employe and the community. Plea for Loyalty. "It has been said that industry is the only department of life that has not been touched by Christianity. Business is paganism in too many instances. There cannot be co-operation without loyalty. "We are engaged In a supremacy for moralty. We do not want Bolshevism but we want to assert our right. The two idealistic agencies are the church and labor. "Our boys have fought for the over- j throw of might and we must demand it." Six delegates from the letter carriers' union were received into the body. Delegates from the barbers' union were also received. A letter from the Women's National

"WE'VE SEEN KINGS AND PRESIDENTS, AND WE WANT TO 60 HOME," WRITES YANKEE
"Number 776,832's Experience letter," written by Lewis Elmer Kinley of Richmond, describes the interesting experiences in France of a group of "Underwood artists" of the quartermaster corps, in which Kinley has been serving overseas. The letter follows: "So this is France." We all thought the same thing and after nine days upon the Atlantic were mighty glad to see land again. "What are those white spots on the hills?" "Oh, boy, look at them fields." Everybody had something to say, was feeling great and full of pep, except the top sergeant, and he had too much on his mind. Ours was undoubtedly the largest crowd of buck privates who ever said good-bye to "Miss Liberty," and began "Wee Wee' ing" and "La La'ing" to the French who were along the road waiting for the Yanks to march past. There were sixty-three in our Q, M. detachment, and the worst bunch of typers an army ever hoped to have. Miss Rose Fritz would have been green with envy of even 'old man' Edwards from Opalusa, for he had done 'Goat reporting and even edited a newspaper down there. We did the three or four miles to Trade union was read which asked that the local body organize a women's trado union here and send a delegate to the national convention at Philadelphia, June 3. Robert Graham, local organizer, said it would be Impossible to organize such a body in Richmond at this time, but that it would be done later. The communication was tabled. A letter from Governor Goodrich in reply to one sent from Central Labor Council, asking him to appoint Frank Duffey on the state board of education, stated that he could not appoint Mr. Duffey, but intended to appoint Harry W. Fidler, as he was not only a member of organized labor, but was Interested in the state as well. Robert Graham reported that he had sent a letter to Frank Morrison, secretary of thf American Federation of Labor at Washington, asking him whether or not the decision in the Richmond labor case had been handed down. Mr. Morrison replied that he would get Information immediately and communicate with Graham. ' The delegates in the central body were Instructed to go to their respective unions and report that labor condemns the wearing of "No Eeer, No Work." buttons. Robert Graham reported that 2,000 tickets for the dance to be given on April 22 at the Coliseum had been printed. The Coliseum has been secured. The music has been put in charge of Clarence Runge. Mr. Graham said that the council needs funds and the tickets must be sold. The council should send a delegate to the national federation convention and also delegates to the state, Graham contended. He said delegates should be sent to the state convention to bring the convention to Richmond next year.

The majority of the thin people are thin because the stomach does not perform its duties prorerly.

the rest camp somewhere near the city of Brest, and after being assigned to a haif dozen large tents, a detail was taken to the old French barracks where we drew our first day's rations and secured a field stove and cooking implements. ' None of those hungry Underwood "artists" will ever forget the "rest" they had, and the jam they had, but did not eat. This may sound queer to the reader, but there are many queer things which seem to happen and I suppose they will keep on happening. For three nights we guarded the stove and pans so nobody would come along and try to eat them, and then we packed up in a drizzling rain and marched back to Brest to wait for the train to take us, nobody knew where. But we were satisfied just to be moving again. . The chapter describing the thirty hour ride in an 8 chevaux or 40 hommes box car recalls too many sad experiences for the writer to relate. "Of all the bloomin' lucky guys in the' world."' "And to think, that the three slowest guys in the company are going to Paris," Brown, and Homer and I sure had one on the whole bunch and we were not a bit quiet about it. They needed us g uysworse than the Kaiser needs ' a friend. Had been looking for us every day, and before we knew it hardly we were scattered from Bordeaux to Le Havre, and some to within easy range of the Hun artillery. "So this is Paris." The station had a hole in the roof where Bertha put ashell a few days before, but we didn't know that when we landed there and were only concerned, now that we were here, of seeing what we could. ' After stowing our packs in the hotel at 10 Rue St. Anne, we decided to take a walk to the Y. M. C. A. How we were 'thanking our stars.' There was real cla3S to us, washing up in a real hotel. Homer says he is not crazy about any girl and hasn't even got one in Birmingham, but I think it's a good thing for him that those Y. M. C. A. canteen ladies were not very young. We found our way back to the hotel through the dimly lighted streets, and were lying as comfortable as possible in the hallway about 11 o'clock when Bang! A ford must have been backfiring right in that hallway. Somo( more Bang's! followed and the music was on for a half hour or more. Homer sat up and I don't remember whether he went down stairs or not. Brown and I felt nervous and descended to the second floor, which was the rules, and there is nothing better than doing what you are told to do in the army. Standing at the window opening onto the air shaft we could hear the Gotha's engine plainly and the shrapnel from the French guns spat tered down now and then. This was our first night in Paris, and after that we were veterans concerning air raids, and when "Bertha" spoke to us nearly every twenty minutes for one whole "FAKE" ASPIRIN WAS TALCUM Therefore Insist Upon Genuine "Bayer Tablets -of Aspirin" Millions of fradulent Aspirin Tablets irers Hnlrt a RrnnUrn moniifortTipor I ""I,. ,71. wmcn laier provea to De composea mainiy ot Talcum jfowaer.

photographic evidence on the same order as that shown above has been gathered by the French for the consideration of the peaca conference, day in August we soon learned to shrug shoulders and smile no matter how we may have felt otherwise. After the armistice we are still car rying on and keeping the M. P's busy watching over us. Tonight one made me take my hands out of my overcoat pockets. Every day we wonder how much longer it will be until we can lose all these French-English books and pack up for home. We have kept the Underwoods, Remingtons and Royals hot while the big fight was being finished. We did not get to go to Berlin and are not very anxious to go there now while the bullets are flying around so carelessly. We have seen all the Kings and Presidents ex cept those who haven't carfare to come to Paris, and now we want to go home. Miss Michael and her victory emblem. Inspired by the beautiful lines of Colonel McRae's poem, "In Flandcn Fields," Miss Michael, a Y. M. C. A. war worker, has designed an emblem entwining tho Flanders poppy with the Torch of Liberty, which she offers for adoption as a national victory memorial to be displayed throughout the country as America's continuous pledge that we shall "keep faith with those who sleep in Flanders fields." Constipation Accelerates Old Age How (o Kid tliv System of Malignant I'olnon und Toxin "You can find constipation In the bottom of many malignant diseases. Constipation has caused more suffering than many other diseases." claimed a famous physician recently. "Not only that," he continued, "but it does certainly, accelerate old age and bring a premature death." Do not allow constipation to make you older than what you are. It ts not necessary." You do not allow the corns on your feet to get the best of you you cut it, you treat it until they are entirely gone. Then why not treat constipation, when it is so much more important, especially in view of the fact your health depends upon It. Stomach trouble usually follows chronic constipation, spare yourself all this trouble by using a good purgative. It is strange how many people fail to heed friendly warning. How manypeople have been asked by their physicians if their bowel movement was perfect or not. Still they do not take the friendly advice which is, use a good laxative take" plenty of exercise and there is absolutely no. reason why you should not be healthy. Try a box of laxcarin.

HOPE TO CONTINUE EMPLOYMENT BUREAU No appropriation for the maintenance of Employment Service offices was made in the last session of congress. However, a communication was received by Mary K. Fisher, examiner in charge of the Richmond United Employment office, which 6lated that a bill creating a commission and carrying with it an appropriation ha3 been passed by the state legislative body. ; The. communication,' which comes from the Indianapolis hearlauarters. says: "Have not been fully appraised
as to what will happen to Ricnmond office. However, it is thought that some way will be had to find employment of the hundreds of returning soldiers that have not yet come back. We understand that a new . employment commission created by the legislature carries authority for municipalities to appropriate money for this work. Of course we do not know what will happen from this angle." Money was appropriated last year by the government to carry on this work and each state was given a certain amount. It is known that Indiana I is the only state that kept within the limits of this appropriation. This J monye was supposed to maintain the offices until June. Whether or not ! Indiana, offices will be kept open that long is not known. After the money is exhausted In the state it will be up to the cities to Look carefully at that jar and carton of Resinol Ointment.

Emery Colson and five of his children were burned to death today In a fire which destroyed his farm buildings at East Franklin. The children ranged in age from two weeks to 14 years. Glass of Hot Water Before Breakfast a Splendid Habit Open sluices of the system each morning and wash away tho poisonous, stagnant matter. Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise; splitting headache, stuffy from a cold. foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, lame back, can, instead, both , look and feel as fresh as a daisy al- j ways by washing the poisons and tox-, ins from the body with phosphated hot water each morning. We should drink, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limetsone phosphate in it to flush from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels, the previous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract before putting more food into the stomach. The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity, and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will cost very little at the drug store but is sufficient to make anyone who is bothered with biliousness, constipation, stomach trouble or rheumatism a real enthusiast on the subject of internal sanitation.
