Dr. Lee, Health Superintendent, has {ssued such a warning this year. It would be well for parents to take that warning home to themselves. Do not pass it by Some children will be hurt. One of those children might be yours. You want to prevent this, Take precautions; watch the children: be strict about letting them do as they please, And remember above all that, case of accident, it is wise to call the physician at A quantity of lock-jaw anti-toxin, to prevent serious results of accidents, will be at police headquarters for the use of doctors, Make this Four Take care of your children. year, in the parents they did not heed the casually. in once. happy one. | ) | LABOR AFFAIRS The time is bad for unions to con- | template a strike. Little as the lead- | ers of the Unions seem to realize it, popular opinion aXects their ability to earn their bread and butter as lead- ers of labor. Moreover public opin- fon has much to do with the success| or failure of strikes, and there can be | no question but that, today, popular | opinion, rightly or wrongly, feels more | bitter against unionism than at any| tme in recent A contempla- tion of the tragedy of Herrin, the resultant cry that has been raised that unions have slaughtered men for exerting their inalienable right to work when they chose to do whether that cry of union-inspired | crime is right or wrong—has so preju- | dice people against unions and all that pertains to them that the justice or| injustice of union demands in fleld may not be judged free from the| cloud of prejudice. | The officials of the railway employes department of the American Federa- tion of labor will consider the situa- tion before calling the strike, despite the firm statements of B. M. Jewell, head of that organizati that the strike of the shopmen will be for July 1 unless the railways agree to stay the operation of the wage cut due on that day and agree to restore former working conditions. It is hs-. lieved ‘that the unions, under advice of officials not to anxious to force mat ter at this time when unions are in disfavor, will postpone the strike, at | least, if the railways agree to refrain | from letting out contract work to contractors not within the jurisdic- tion of the railway labor board. Meanwhile President Harding ®called a conference of miners operators ‘‘to methods which negotiations for the settlement on the coal strike can be initiated.” No one will be bound by action taken at that conference at the White House. i One .would like to be able to pic- ture a strong personality presiding over that conference, able, by strength of his logic and the of his presentation of the situation, to influence miners and operators to ar- range some terms at whereby arbitration might be made effective There is no figure in the White House, however, which suggests such a per- sonality. Instead one reads the in- genuous note that probably the con ference will not be a long one President Harding has called it Saturday morning and has planned to leave for a week's stay at Marion, al- though, the news note adds, the Prés- ident may turn the meeting over to Secretaries Hoover and Davis he, the President, has made wishes known. | With no disrespect for Secretaries | Hoover and Davis who probably know more about the situation than does President” Harding, one may well re- gret that the President's dispnsmonl is such as to permit the suggestion that he would not consider such a confdarence, at this time, too import- | ant, too vitally important, to ahsent} himselt from. ¥ with s0— any called has and devise upon the force least as for after his TRUE IRISH SPIRIT.

She did not want to he under weight so that she might posses the prevail- ing style of figure; nor did she wish to be under weight in order that she might dance more gracefully. She, this wistful-eyed little girl, wanted to be under weight the powers-that-were-to-be were heard months actually s0 that | would select her as one of the chil- dren who would be taken to the Fresh Air camp this summer. She was not strong; she did not look in the best of health as she plied her needle and | worked on her sewing. But she felt, | somehow, that everything would be all right if she could "get to go” to that wonderful place where the air was fresh, the food pure and sweet, the children happy. There are many like her, and all of them, without knowing just what “‘under weight" might mean, but knowing that only underweight children would be taken, would long to be under weight if that blissful condition would bring to them probably the happiest two weeks they had ever known. | You can help give one of such| children that wonderful two weeks of | joy. ONL WISE CHINAMAN | General Wang Shih-cheng was ask- | ed to serve as premier of China under | a reconstruction regime.
