THE MIDDLE CLASS IN OVERALLS The Wmmpeg strike has proved a rather interesting fact. It has established the truth that if all the organized manual workers in the country decide to strike, they can do it, and the country will get along without them. In Winnipeg the military and police had a certain amount of work to do, but is consisted in suppressing hoodlums when the mob got too noisy. The purpose of the strike was to prove that manual workers could not be dispensed with. And the middle group (if we can speak of such a class in these days) proved that they could. The middle class group opersted the public utilities plants, and cleaned the garbage cans. shouldn’t, They were hardly about flffl iferely because they There was no reason. why they likely to feel any false pride were brain-workers. Most of them drew lower salaries than the manual workers, any way. There is no cryptic mystery about running a street car or a locomotive. Or calcimining a wall. An amateur may not do these things at first with the same dexterity as a journeyman. But he can soon learn. If the middle classes took a notion to stnke, it would be different. SR . MORE WORK THAN WORKERS . Farmers of the northwest are making frantic efforts to secure men in the large cities to work on the farms for $50 a month with board and room. idlers away from the cabaret But it isn’t enough to tempt the jazzers. Fifty a month is not much, when cost of living is considered, but as most of the liv- ing is in board and room the argument seems a little weak. As a matter of fact, $50 a month with board and room on a farm is far better than the average young man can do even at the highest wages in the cities, where everything is paid out in necessary hvmg}ex Bes. The farm is a good place, and it is getting better every -~ - year.
