On that day there will be a gathering of all the teachers who are employed | in the schools, which come under state supervision. A large dance car- nival is planned for the pupils of the varieus schools, the idea being to show the results obtalned in schools, where no special dancing teacher con- ducts class These dances will dem- onstrate that the children can get rid of surplus energy and are also a nat- ural expression of grace. Local pu- pils will participate in five dances: highland fling, the Hop Nur Ainka, German hopping dance, Swedish Clap and the Danish dance of greeting A large number of the pupils have been practising during the past two weeks under the direction of Miss Adelle Murray and the follow have been selected to represent town: Lita Cowles, Rose Kiniry, Hel- en Nelson, Ruth Graham, lena Da- delli, Gretchen Larson, Stella Golon, Aida Martino, Kathryn Gulong, Mar- garet Corr and Frances Griko. Com- petition for the other places is very keen and it is probable a few more students may take the trip. Lita Cowles and Kiniry will lve a demonstration of the highland 1ling, while all the children will take part in the other dances, A marked improvement has heen noticed the last few days and members of the faculty feel their puplls will capture some of the prizes. RRose Workmen Contented. “As far know, there is noth- ing to the was the consensus of local brick manufacturers, regarding the_story In a morning publication, that union had been formed as we arn,” a among i | i i | | i cers, the lahorers at the brickyards and a strike was imminent unless daily \ges are increased. The owners ridiculed the idea of the men asking for time and one half for overtime, work is done al picce work According to the manager of one of the larger yards, the older men have informed him they are per- fectly satisfied with present conditions. The scale of wages in vogue runs from $2 to $2.75 per day for day work, but as soon as the work is running stead- ily it will be paid for according to the amount done It develops that the idea of union was fostered by men who are not employed at the business at pres- ent and merely working for a salary position as organizers and officers of proposed union The men commence work very early and often have a day’s work completed at 10 o'clock. If they care to, the men may work even after that hour and often- times, two days work is accomplished within twenty-four hours. From present indications the pres- ent year will be the biggest in the his- tory of local brick manufacturers and | despite the rumor of impending labor | troubles, a spirit of optimism pre- vails. It is known the older men are perfectly satisfied with present condi- tions and the disgruntled ones, if there are any, can be found in the ranks of the newcomers, who possi- bly do not understand as yet the chance they have to work overtime, if they desire.
