WHY LOSE MONEY?
Why do you not, when you have a
hard-earned dollar to spend, go
where you can feel satisfied that you
get the full value of that coin? If we
were to use this whole page we
couldn't illustrate and describe the
real down good bargains which we
have for you, and goods that we can
absolutely save you money on and
are saving our customers money on
every day. We don't run any skin
games (and right here we would like
to know if you haven't been skinned
more than once at these so-called
special sales, give you 9 cents worth
of nothing to skin you out of a dol
lar and a quarter on something else)
We have just opened one thousand
dollars' worth of sample shoes. These
we sell at 30 per cent, discount.
These are real bargains. We took
the entire lot of odds and ends in
children's clothing and men's cheap
pants from one factory. These are
real bargains, and it's all the way
through our entire stock the same
way. There's not a line that we
carry (and we carry almost every
thing) that we can't save you money
on. We have by far the greatest and
cheapest line of goods that we have
ever shown and you are standing in
your own light if you do not at once
decide to make our store headquar
ters for your buying this year. Its
only a pleasure to us to show you,
so come and see.

MR. J. AD. HODGIN DEAD.
Mr. J. Addison Hodgin died Tues
day night at 11.30 o'clock at his home,
335 Asheboro street, after a brief ill
ness with pneumonia and complica
tions. He was 64 years of age.
He is survived by his wife, who is
an invalid, two brothers, a sister, and
several nephews and nieces.
Mr. Hodgin was manager of the
Savings Department of the Greens
boro Loan and , Trust Company, and
only on last Wednesday he was at
his desk.
The deceased was a member of the
Friends Church, and was a member
of the board of trustees of Guilford
College and had served in this ca
pacity for some years.
He was interred in Greene Hill cem
etry Thursday morning, and the ser
vices were conducted by his pastor,
Rev. Stephen S. Myrick, assisted by
Rev. T. J. Ogburn, pastor of Grace
M. P. Church.
MAY ENLARGE ITS SCOPE.
The executive council of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor, at the open
ing of its quarterly meeting just clos
ed in New York, adopted a resolution
favoring the establishment of-an in
ternational federation of labor.
The resolution declared that such
a federation, while not impairing the
autonomy of the trade union move
ment of each country, would have
for its purpose the protection and ad
vancement of the rights, interests
and justice of wage workers.
President Gompers has appointed
Henry W. Perham, president of the
railroad employes department of the
federation, as arbitrator between the
International Association of . Car
Workers and the Brotherhood of Rail
way Car Men, both of which had sent
delegations to the council in regard
to the amalgamation of the two organ
izations. G. P. O. PRINTERS REJOICE.
There is rejoicing in the Govern
ment Printing Office, as the great
printery with its' 4,000 employes is
generally known in Washington. The
White House is through with "thru"
ancL all the rest of the simplified
words put into the executive vocabu
lary by President Roosevelt, and the
clerical force of the highest govern
mental office has gone back to the
good old English of our fathers.
For several weeks after the Roose
velt regime was ended the clerks and
stenographers of the executive offices
would occasionally write "tho" for
."though," "past" for "passed", and
"thoro" for "thorougn," as they were
required to do under the administra
tion that " nded March 4th.
These words would perhaps be de
tected by some other clerk before
they reached the government print
ing office, or, if they got as far as the
G. P. O., they would be caught and
changed by the proofreaders down
there.
None of them ever found their way
into public print after the Taft ad
ministration got well into harness
and" no one. except some few Roose
velt enthusiasts, is left to mourn their
absence.
"Thousands of dollars will be saved
annually by the disuse of the simpli
fied spelling," said an official of the
government printing office. "It was
the continual mixup and eternal
change that cost so much. For in
stance, tue nresident woum sena
down a message written in his pecu
liar abbreviated phonetic style. We
would have to set it up as we got the
copy. - .-i r-:-,--' - -
"In due time ithe message would
have to be printed tp the Congression
al Record, and as Congress had pass
ed a law prohibiting' the expenditure
of any money for, the simplified spel
ling, when we put1 it in the Record
we had to spell the words according
to common usage, i ' .
"So the messages had to be set up
all over again and as President Roose
velt was not at all stingy with his
communications there was plenty of
work of that sort, to be done. Now,
thank goodness, all the spelling that
comes to the office: Is alike." j

LAYMEN RIVAL TN E DOCTORS.
Consumption Campaign Allies Many
' ' Interests.
Confirming the recent statement .of
Dr. William Osier, that the anti-tuberculosis
campaign is no longer , a
battle for the doctors only, the Na
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of Tuberculosis, issues a
statement today in which it Is shown
that over 45 per cent, of those en
listed in tne White Plague War are
laymen.
The National Association's mem
bership, consisting of nearly 2,500
and representing every State in the
Union, is composed of 54.6 per cent.
doctors and 45.4 per cent, laymen. In
the local and state organizations, how
ever, throughout the country, the per
centage of laymen averages consid
erably over 50 per cent. The National
Association declares this fact is pe
culiarly significant, as indicating the
great popularity of the anti-tuberculosis
movement.
Twenty-five years ago, when the
campaign against tuberculosis was
started in this country by Dr. Edward
L. Trudeau, even the doctors laughed
at the movement. Gradually the med
ical profession realized the possibili
ties of n organized fight against tu
berculosis, and in 1904, the National
Association for the Study and Preven
tion of Tuberculosis was formed by
the American Medical Association. Atj
that time the percentage of laymen
in the association was only 12.9, and
very few persons were interested in
the campaign against tnis disease.
Today, according to recent figures
published by the National Associa
tion, churches, schools, labor unions,
women's clubs, fraternal organizations
and state legislatures, interesting ful
ly 8,000,000 people, are all allied in
the campaign against tuberculosis,
and in addition to these, laymen of
all classes of society, and in every
branch oi social and industrial life,
are uniting against this one common
foe.
Every aay sees hundreds of new re
cruits in the war, and every day
brings new methods for the fighting
of the plague. The National Associ
ation predicts that if the present de
gree of interest is maintained, within
five years everybody in the United
States will have been informed on
the way to prevent and cure tuber
culosis, and concerning the infectious
nature of the disease.
Two things in particular are need
ed, and for cnese the National Associ
ation .is working in every way. They
are, a more complete registration of
ituberculosis cases, and the further
isolation of dangerous advanced cases
of consumption.
TRADE UNION CHARACTERS.
The Chronic Kicker.
By the Rev. Charles Stelzle.
Whenever a resolution is Introduced
he is sure to offer an objection. Some
times he kicks on the subject matter
itself. Then he protests against the
form in which the resolution has been
presented. Frequently he finds fault
with a word in the construction of a
sentence, and often he will offer an
amendment which puts the original
Resolution out of business. He is
primed for every parliamentary dis
pute. He seems to be familiar with
every communication that is read at
the meeting of the local. He knows
the leaders and their foibles. He is
on the job all the time, with both
feet, both fists, and with a tongue
that is sharper than a two-edged
sword. He takes himself seriously.
Never does he crack a smile. He has
a mission, and everybody soon comes
to know it. Often have we wished
him in Timbuctoo, where he could
spout to his heart's content on all
the "isms" that so 'glibly glide off the
end of his tongue.
But honestly, we'd miss him if he
should go. Miss him not because
we love him, perhaps, but because he
is one of the necessary factors in
our development. As a matter of
fact without him we'd soon drift into
a rut because most of us are too lazy
to think of an objection, to say noth
ing of an original proposition. There's
at least one thing that we must say
to his credit he always attends the
meetings. Furthermore, he must
spend considerable time In reading
and in study to know as much as he
does about current events and the
theories which men are discussing.
He actually thmks. He may not al
ways be right, but he certainly is
awake and that's another point to
his credit. Also, he keeps the rest
of us awake. And that isn't bad. But
he is more often right than not. We
object to him because he is Jike the
bee buzzing about our heads, but even
the bee is a useful creation.
Sometimes it's hard to be patient
with the kicker. But there are oth
ers who are worse than he is for
instance, the fellow who never shows
up at the meeting and then does his
kicking outside where it does a whole
lot more harm. He's the chap that
should be jumped on, and not the
man who is sincerely usually Intel
ligently, though not always wisely,
registering an objection in the open
meeting to proposed actions which
would often spell disaster.

happened 'in Jthis,Jwa,y: ; -,
One$ of . Pittsburg's prominent labor
leaderij ; who -has i also been prominent
in othpr parts, jof the country, decided
the day -before last 'Christmas, that
hip family should' have a turkey for
the Christmas- dinner.: So, after fin
ishing? his labors for that day, he
starter out j with the intention of go
in er direct, to the market. nurnhaslnE'
a finelarg "iurkeyr and some other
necesiary trimmings and arrive home
early o .it could be prepared in nice
shape I for i the following day.
He ,got ' started all right, and vis
ited a' well known butcher shop on
Grantf street, and was looking over
their stock of turkeys when a friend
happened in and a dispute arose as
to the' size of the : turkey required to
feed this particular gentleman's fam
ily. They decided to arbitrate the
question and both agreed to submit
the case to Policeman Berger, ;the
cornerman at Third avenue and
Smithfleld street. On arriving there,
however, they discovered that Officer
Bergen's did not coincide with either
of them, so I they retired to the Gris
wold hotel to figure out the proposi
tion. fThere they 'met several more
acquaintances and the case was gone
into Jretty; thoroughly and it was
finally? decided that all hands should
go to - the market and select "the tur
key and they would be sure to select
the proper sized one. Several stops
were tnade on the way to the market
and by the time they reached there
almost any sized turkey could have
been sold. A fine large turkey was
purchased and the bunch started on
their way .back to Smithfleld street.
The party who had the turkey was
so pleased at finally having the turkey
in his 'possession and the dispute set
tled that he declared he would treat
the crowd. No doubt each one in
the crowd returned the honors, for
in some manner the paper naturally be
came unwrapped from the turkey and
wtien the writer hailed the bunch
they were coming up Fourth avenue
with the turkey toeing carried by the
neck. Inquiries were made but it
was soon .seen 'that the party carry
ing the turkey was positive he could
handle .it better that way than wrap
ped , fettder his - arm, -and we - -believe
be couM.
Tbe last seen of him he was board
ing a Second avenue car on his way
home You may imagine the recep
tion h got when he arrived there. He
naturally thought he could square
himself by producing this fine turkey
for the Christmas dinner, but just
then he discovered that all he had of
the. turkey was the neck. Some mis
creant having taken advantage of him
while he was not looking and had cut
the turkey off and left the neck in
h:u hand. He, of course, received the
sympathy of inquiring friends, but no
doubt it was several weeks before
friendly relations were continued with
the family.
Let this be a warning to everybody
contemplating purchasing a turkey.
Decide on the size yourself, and don't
submit the case for arbitration or you
will lose.
One bleak winter morning a cold
looking individual walked into a small
cafe.
"Morninr." he said cheerfully, ad
dressing himself to the white apron
ed attendant behind the bar.
"Morning," was the reply.
"How'd you like a sherry and egg
this morning?" continued the strang
er. "Well, that does sound good to me.
Are are you going to treat?"
"I'll furnish the eggs if you will
contribute the sherry."
"Done," agreed the proprietor.
"All right. I'll be back in a min
ute," the frosted one called over his
shoulder as he walked around to the
door.
Into the street he made his way
and halted before a grocery store in
front of whicii the clerk was sweep
ins: the steps.
"Morning," he said good naturedly.
"Morning," came the reply.
"A little raw this morning," he pur
sued.
"Yep."
"How'd a sherry and egg go this
morning?" he asked, rubbing some
heat into his hands.
"Best thing I've heard today," an
nounced t-ie clerk, interested.
"Tell you what I'll do," the stranger
continued, "I'll furnish the sherry if
you'll furnish the eggs."
"Sure."
"All right. Trot out the eggs arid
follow me."
And the stranger led the way back
to tho Clf
"Here's the eggs," he announced
to the proprietor.
"Here's the sherry," replied the pro
prietor, mixing the drinks.
"Here's how!" the three exclaimed
in unison, and they drank the concoc
tion and replaced the glasses on the
bar. j
"By the way," said the proprietor to
the grocery clerk, "you contributed
the eggs, didn't you?"

facturers. -
The National Association of Manu
facturers 'keep on going from bad jto"
to worse. It has. tried Pjarry and Van
Cleave, both arrogant and",J unreason
able despots, arid has been obliged to
shelve them. At its last annual con
vention which was recently held in
New, York city ; it harnessed up a new
leader for its contest with organized
labor, and with its usual fatuity suc
ceeded in selecting the . worst man
in its membership for the work. This
is one John - Kirby, Jr., who is seem
ingly, so far. as he has shown his
hand, inore arrogant, unreasonable
and violent than either of his prede
cessors. This is what the Sacramento
Bee, under the heading, "Van Cleave
Succeeded by Another Arrogant Ass,"
has to say on the subject:
"J. W. Van Cleave has been sue-!
ceeded as president of the National
Association of Manufacturers by one
John Kirby, who seems anxious to
distinguish himself as even more
brutal and arrogant in his attitude
toward organized labor than his pred
ecessor. In assuming the position,
Kirby addressed the association in
these words, with reference to the
American Federation of Labor: 'My
policy will be that of Mr. Van Cleave.
I do not believe in compromise with
criminals. It is better to bring the
whole labor question to a pointed is
sue instead of temporizing and fooling
with it. The only way to deal with
this animal is to take it by the horns
till it is made obedient. If we had
to deal with the 95 per cent, of labor
men who are for justice and fairness
we could settle this whole labor problem-in
an instant.'
"Such senseless talk is responsi
ble for much of the labor trouble in
this country. Union men naturally
resent it, and are embittered by it.
If all the large employers of labor
were of the stamp of Van Cleave and
Kirby, there would be no end of
strikes and lockouts, and a large part
of the time great industries would
be paralyzed.
"This is supposed to be a free coun
try, and yet Kirby has the assurance
to spek of organized labor as a
beast of burden, to be taken by the
horns 'until it is made obedient.'
Could senseless, arrpgancgoiurther
than that? It smacks of the middle
ages, when in Europe a workman
was treated as an inferior creature,
and could be kicked and cuffed by
his employer without daring to com
plain or retaliate.
"Of course Kirby is an ass, with
no more heart nor brains than Van
Cleave, whose attitude toward union
labor has always been that of a Simon
Legree cracking a bloody whip over
the backs of toiling slaves. Such men
are a disgrace to the nation and to
any organization of employers which
puts them to the front.
"Every fair-minded and well-informed
man knows that wage-workers have
an unquestionable right to organize
or mutual protection, and that, on
the whole, the lot of workingmen has
been greatly improved through organ
ization, without harm to Industry or
the legitimate gains of capital. La
bor has as good right as capital to
organize and combine to accomplish
lawful ends by lawful means. The
very foundation of prosperity and pro
gress rest upon the industry of the
masses, and no man who speaks -contemptuously
of labor and laboring
men is a good citizen of this repub
lic. "No doubt organized labor has its
demagogues, its bad leaders, its
treacherous, unscrupulous officials
ready to betray their trust for a few
pieces of silver. But likewise capi
tal has its Van Cleaves and its Kir
bys, heartless, purse-proud and inso
lent tramplefs on the rights of men
infinitely more entitled to respect
than themselves. No class has a
monopoly of virtue and public spirit."

THE BOYCOTT.
We dislike to differ with Judge
George Gray, of Delaware, who did so
much disinterested work in the set
tlement of the great coal strike sev
eral years ago, and who has again
demonstrated his fairness in arbitrat
ing the contentions of the Scranton
carmen, x but he must be forgetting
American history when he inveighs
against the boycott as un-American
and cowardly. Evidence need not be
strained to show that to the effective
ness of the boycott set up by the peo
ple of the American colonies is large
ly to be attributed our independence
as a nation. One instance is note
worthy. In 1773 the home govern
ment of England sought to compel the
people of the colonies to buy tea and
pay a large tax upon it When a ves
sel loaded with tea arrived off Phila
delphia at that time there was held
here a meeting of eight thousand cit
izens, who resolved that they would
have none of the tea nor would they
pay the tax. More than that, they
sent for the captain of the vessel and
informed him that if he did not im
mediately leave our waters his ship
would be burned. He left, and we
are not a nation of tea drinkers, as
we might have been had we submitted
to the imposition of the tax. Trade

ROASTING THE OLDl MAN.
So many husbands ar Htooiw
spoiled in the cooking that ' a few
words on the best manner of prepar
ing them may not be amiss. First of
all, catch your husband, and be sure
he is young and tender. Take him
home and have everything ready in
the kitchen. Some wives keep: their
husbands in hot water too long, while
others roast them until they are over
done. Still more wives keep them in
pickle, or they keep themselves pick
led, as the case may be. A' husband
cannot be served tender, and appetiz
ing under these conditions. In select
ing the husband you wili find some'
have, the silvery appearance of the
mackerel or the golden tint of the
goldfish. The latter is to be prefer
red. Cook, him in a nice new enamel-
ed preserving kettle, having taken
care to wrap him in clean linen cloths
before placing in the hot water. Of
course, you know that, like a crab or
lobster, you will have to cook him
alive, and also, like them, he will not
be so green after being in hot water
a few times. If he splutters and fiz
zles a bit at first, don't be a' bit anx
ious. Many of them do this when
cooking. A little spice will help some,
but don't jab the kitchen fork or ice
pick into him to see if he is done, as
it may agitate! him. Stir him about
gently, watching; him closely that he
does not become flabbv or rsoft Tf
cooked in- the above-manner, he wrill'
be nice and terider, and will not even
give the youngest of the children any
indigestion. Labor Herald.
