I say it is a discredit to the government to do so. I say further that it is wrong to com- vel honest men.in the government service to act in the company of men who have confessed to such frauds.” GOMPERS CRITICISES ELIOT Lahor Leader Says Harvard Ex-Presi- dent Is Behind the Timas. ‘Washington, Oct. 28.—“Former Pres- ident Eliot of Harvard has now.noth- ing to occupy him but to talk; he lives in an ‘age he does not under- stand,” said Samuel Gompers, presi dent of the American Federation of Labor, in a stateruent in reply to Dr. Eliot’s criticism of trade unionism at Xenyon college. 0., recently. “Since the time Dr. Eliot was men- tally capable of appreciating indus- trial and commercial conditions de- velopment has gone on,” continued Mr. Gompers. “The concentration of industry, in which. combinaticns, cor- porations and trusts have.developed, have all escapad himin so far as con- cerns their influence.upon the individ- uality of the workars. “The organizations of labor of to- day are the best defenders of the rights of the workers and the pro: moters of real democracy.

Telling the Truth Pays ===== The simple truth, in black and white, is that when you buy lumber or building material fromus, you can throw all uncertanity to the four winds. Does that sink in? Goods of inferior quality may cost little, but they may not be WORTH anything. No matter how little you pay for an article, it is not really cheap unless it will satisfactorily fulfil the purpose for which it is intended. Our lumber and building material is made good enough for the ‘White House, but is sold to those people who want “the best yon've got.” If you're that kind of a buyer, we ‘can please you. Phone 97 M.
