Those who would "ply the avocation
of a nirt or masher" find little oD-
portunity for that sidelime of activity
in the town of Abilene Texas, M an
ordinance passed by the municipal
authorities la strictly enforced.
Quite a number of such rezulations
have been made in various etties and
towns. but it appears that ths Abi-
lene fathers have tried hard to con-
struct a model ordinance covering the
offenses bought to be suppressed
How well they have succeeded may be
sudged by the following extract from
the law:
"It shall be unlawful for any person
to idle and loiter on any street or
thoroughfare, sidewalk, or alley, or in
any store, theater, motor car. motion
picture show, business house, or in
the entrance or doorway of any place
within the corporate limits at the City
of Abilene for the purpose of plying
the avocation of a trt or masher. .
"It ahall be unlawtul for any man
in the City of Abilene to stare at or
make googoo eyes st. or in any other
manner look at or make remarks to
or concerning, or cough or whistle at,
or do any other act to attract the at-
tention of any woman upon or travel-
mg along any of the sidewalks,
streets, or public ways of the City of
Abilene with an intent or in a man-
ner calculated to annoy such woman."

as proof at axg The Federal Gov-
ernment baa therefore decided to use
the census records in determining the
• age of persons who claim pensions.
» although the Federal census is
taken every ten years, it is now re-
vealed that the 1900 census is the only
ene which carried both the year and
month of birth at all persons. It coe
sequeutiy includes a large percentage

age stated. When this is done it will
require but a moment's time to ascer-

decision, which wrecked one of the
most sweeping instrumentalities of
the New Deal. it ie widely believed
that much other legislation now to
be tested by the Supreme Court will

with 100,000 cats Each cat will aver-

skins will sell for 30 cents each. One

"To feed the cats, we will start a

will be held Tuesday evening at, the

"We are willing to take charge of

Larry Taylor, president, declared
“The committee to be organized
Tuesday will eventully include rep-
resentatives of every important group
in the state." Taylor was unable to
say who will head the strike commit-
tee, but said the council will probably
recommend employment of an expert
to direct ita work.

been in progress more than eight
months, has developed beyond a mere
local trade aggrievance," said Taylor.

they may be confronted.
In the United State* the military
ha* always been subordinate to the
civil power. No general or admiral
has anything to say about whether
the nation should go to war or not.
Their duty is to carry out the will of

ernment or not

chief of staff of the United States

After several years of discussion, a
final reunion of Union and Confed-
erate soldiers has been agreed upon,
to be held at Gettysburg. Pa*, in 1933.
on th* 75th anniversary of the de-
cisive battle fought there July 1. 1.
and 3, 1963.
The United Conferedate Veterans
unanimously agreed at their recent
reunion in Amarillo, Texas, to accept
the invitation of the governor of Penn-
sylvania to join with the Grand Army
of the Republic in the 1938 reunion,
but only on condition that they be
allowed to carry the Confederate flag
unfurled alongside th* Stars and
Stripes.
Some of members of the G. A. R
insistod that th* Confederate flag be
furled during the ceremonies, but fin-
ally waived that point. There was a
joint reunion at Gettysburg on th*
50th anniversary of the battle in 1912.
hut on that cccasion the Confederate
flag was carried furled.
While the forthcoming point re-
union in 1933 will have high signifi-
cane as a gesture of food will be-
tween former foes, it is doubtful
whether any considerable number of
veterans will be able to participate.
This year only about 500 veterans
attended the G. A. R encampment in
Grand Rapids, the youngest being 35
years old. The ranks of the Con-
federates have likewise dwindled; few
cf either army will be under 90 by
1933, and it is inevitable that many
of those who survive will be phys-
rally unable to attend.
Put the spirit of the joint reunion
will be the spirit of a united country,
and as such should prove an inspira-
tion to every American.

Farmers and others who drive un-
lighed wagons on the highways at
night take chances of causing disas-
irons wrecks by being run down by
motor vehicles that are entirely un-
necessary While tratfie law* usu-

at nigtit, disregard of this require-
ment is very widespread
Il is seme trouble to keep a lantern
or other light ready for use at night-
fall, but many occupants of both
wagons and automobiles have met
death or serious injury because of a
failure to take this simple precau-
tion.
Those who drive horse-drawn ve-
hicles should realise that the carrying
of lights is for their own protection,
as well as for the protection at mo-
torista. In fact, the danger to the
wagon driver la the greater. There is
no excuse for driving an unlighted
wagon after dark.

T^robably all your family were born with good eyes. But eyes are
I designed for daylight use. You use them mostly indoors now, under
far less light—sometimes all day and half the night. That’s one big reason
for so much trouble—headache, nervousness, eyestrain that develops into
defective sight.
Now the relationship of Light to Sight is disclosed by the Science of
Seeing. Plentiful light, glareless and correctly, directed, helps us in the task
of seeing and protects our eyesight for the future. But hardly one home

LABOR UNION MEMBERS spend
over 140 milion million dollars
every week. This means that annually
over seven billion deists at union-
earned money passes tiom the work-
ers pocket books into 'the channels
of trade. If thia vast sum were spent
only for Union-made goods and Union
services, it is difficult to estimate its
heneita to Labor Untonism. We must
arounse all Labor Uniom members and
their sympathisers to this gigantic
power which rests in their pay en-
velopes. If they should pledge that
not a cent of this Immense payroll
would be spent unless the products
bore the Union Label and the services
were also Union, then Labor Union-
ism would com* Into its own and be-
come the most powerful movement in
our economic life.
About the year 1800, a Dr. William
King of Brighton, England, preached
a gospel which still bears an authen-
tie ring for reformers "You are
poor," he said in effect, “because you
work for others and not for your-
selves True, you have no capital,
but you have purchasing power Com-
bine to purchase Let the economics
of combined buying accumulate as
capital. Use that capital to establish
your own workshop So trill you end
the exploitation of labor which arises
from ignorance "
What Dr. King said 135 years ago ■
is just as true today. The Union
workers can make their collective
baying power As great an economic
force as collective bargaining Every
Labor Unionist and the members of
his fsmily can become partners in
the Union label Movement without
the outlay of one cent in cash Be-
Yore spending their Enton-earned
