As most of us occupy ourselves principally in making a living we may as well do something that we like, even if we make a few bad shots before we hit our vocation. Just now, the government is doing the choosing for us, but the war will not last forever, and this philosophy applies for all time. The greatest tragedy in life is a vocational misfit. Pre- mature death is melancholy, but it is a cheerful destiny com- pared with a life prolonged for fifty years in an uncongenial calling. : ; . : Many a man works like a slave for a living to avoid dying, but if he would stop avoiding it he would escape the trouble of working altogether. His work is painful; death will get him at the finish; it might'as well get him at the start. Every one of us is good at something, but most of us are doing something else. Were it otherwise, every -one would be a success, and the world would be Paradise. F The Socialists in New York have demanded a six hour work-day. Which seems to suggest that they have extreme ideas on the subject of .work. Anything that wearies you in six hours is the wrong job for you. Drop, it, and do some- thing else.. P No one ever put a great achievement on record while waiting for the quitting whistle. Dislike of work does not prove that work is a curse. It provesthat we are poor guessers in picking our jobs. > And when a branch of the Socialist party goes on record by classifying work among the woes of mankind, it is up to the rest of the socialists to ‘assist their weakling brethren to a > more wholesome conception of the purpose of life.

Jewett Co., Inc ' BEMIDJI, MINN. =] » Phone 474 chairman of the Brotherhood. of Locomotive Enginemen: & Firemen, Pine Tree lodge, Bemidji, brought to the office a| copy of the letter addressed o the employees of the M. & I. road Dby Secretary McAdoo, director general of the ‘railroads under . government control, we talked it-over. & | It would seem that Bemidji is rather overlopking a most important anniversary and one on which celebrations and observance is general throughout the country. It is.one day in the year when the people of the nation stand in reverence and bow to the greafest factor in the universe—Labor. It dees not mean, necessarily, that the laboring man carry.a Union card, he might not be affiliated Wwith any local of a national union,] but he is of what is known as the working class and as such is a unitin the great army throughout th’e United States. ! ‘Bemidji is not what is: known as a strong union town. Comparatively speaking she is not organized, but has several “card men” and hundreds not affiliated with any craft. - No matter, then, whether it be union men ‘or unorganized men, all workmen and ware earners, they are on the same footing, could join'in a fitting observance of Labor Day, aided and abetted by the loyal citizens who honor the backbone of the nation, and next Labor Day, Bemidji should cease for the day as for as possible in all due respect and recognition. U. 5. STANDS FOR NEW PATRIOTIC ORGANIZATION. ' Livel “Young Ame Evegyone in the universe knows that U. 8. is the nom de plume of Uncle Sam and the United States, but there is a new U. S. looming over the patriotic horizon, and its name is Un- conditional Surrender, an organization that insists upon no German made peace on the part of the United States. Its origin is.in Flint, Mich., and units are rapidly being formed in the Wolverine state.. The new *un promises to be- come quite a factor as it is pledged to. undying feéalty to the government. # L4 L. “ TAKES DULUTH POSITION.
