he were a. republican cartoonist. so
that he could be elected. It would
certainly do him a world of good to

which he would get at first hand
would be worth more to him than
the salary which Uncle Sam hands
out to statesmen for services ren-

world of good.

“Let. the reader just think what
it would mean if a. real cartoonist

it would become one of the most

Five Day Week
Is Federation
Labor’s Goal

DETROIT. (rim—The five day
week for all workers came to the
fore as a_ definite goal of the Amer-
ican Federation Labor program to-
day in the final meeting of the ex-
ecutive council of the federation pro-
iiminary to the 46th annual conven-
tion which opens today.

President William Green and his
cabinet. composed of international
officers of affilated unions. agreed
upon the five-day 40-hour week as
the cardinal point in the advance-
ment program of organized labor
and determined to recommend the
policy to all affiliated organizations
as a basis of negotiation for con.
tract renewals with employers.

“The 40~hour week is inevitable
in American labor." Mr. Green said
in a public statement after the meet-
ing. ”for the simple reason that it
is economically sound and profitable.
It is profitable for the worker. and
for the employer. and has been tra-
mendousiy successful in the numer-
ous crafts‘in which" it is already
partly e ective.

\i‘il “Malmain Prosperity"

"High pressure production. and
the physical .demands of modern in-
dustryare such that only with the
stortcr day can we attain notable
p egress in mechanical production.
In .the printing. crafts. garment
trades and public trades. whore _ the
five-day week is effective in some
sections of the country. the results
have increased» production as much
as 40 per cent on certain operations
with an actual decrease in the unit
cost.

Everyman’s Class
Makes Good Start
For F all Season

SATURDAY NIGHT SOCIAL WELL
ATTENDED AND CLASS “IL-“lb
CROWD 01“ 573 FOR OPENING
SESSION.

 

Beginning Saturday evening at
Odd li‘eilons‘ Hall. South Norwaik
and yesterday morning at the lie-
geiit theatre. the Everyllinn's bible
class made a very successful start
on its fall work.

The attendance Saturday evening
was very good and the class com-
menced yesterday with 373 present.
exactly the average attendance fig—

ure for the 17 Sundays the class
convened last season.
At the get-to-gclher social Sat-

 

urday evening the [line division out- .
did the Red division by ,prcsentingl‘
a. program which would db credit to
any of the big city booking agencies. I
The program was augmented by "an -
eight piece orchestra. A pantomime
mock trial presented by 24 members
cf the Blue division was a "scream"
although there “as not a word said. .
Clarence E. Slauson acted as judge. 1
Charles Haas as prosecutor and ‘
Clarence Nulting as lawyer for the 1
defense. They were assisted by
others who acted as witnesses and
Jury. A vocal concert presented by
Clarence Brown with the assistance
of an electrola loaned by James
Connolly was greatly enjoyed by all.

Dr. William C. O‘Donnell of New
York was introduced as the speaker
of the evening. He spoke on the
value of a bible class to the com-
munity. pointing out the successful
ideals and standards of the practical
class. Dr. O‘Donncii‘s speech was
impressive and well received by the
men present. Roy Saxlon, presi-
dent of the class extended an invi-
tations to Dr. O'Donnell to address
the class at the theatre some Sunday
in the future. Dr. O'Donnell accept-
.ed the invitation. the date is to be
3 set later.

I Hot roast beef sandwiches. cruiicrs
' and coffee were served after the en-
| ti‘rtainment.

I The officers of the class are very
‘much encouraged and elated over
ithe start made by the class at the
'openlng meeting hl‘ld yesterday
morning after the long vaCuuon.
They feel that the attendance is an
augury of success for the ensuing
term. The class opened with a sei-
ection by the orchestra. followed by
class singing. Ralph Toiand gave
a vocal selection which embodied
great inspiration. the spirit of which
was deeply impressed on all pre-
sent.

0n the announcement that the
class was again meeting in the Ile-
gent by the courtesy of Andrew J.
Collins he was given an ovation.

A number of out of town visitors
were received with words of wel—
come.

Mr. Sexton announced that next
Sunday morning a few minutes
would be devoted to llyllln singing
in the form of a contest between
the two divisions, each led by its
own song leader and Judged by
Class Song Leader Arthur Paddock.

James Ellcnwood. class leader,
was given a hearty welcome back to
the class. His text taken for dis-
cussion was “When the sayings were
all over to the people. Jesus went to
pray." He pointed out how the
great things of life are done quietly
and most effectually by the mos‘.
modest men. Using as an illustra-
tion the great effort of lime. facili-
ties and money which would be nec-
essary to set up just one grown free
if blown down and how quietly and
perfectly trees and things grow up
around us by the divine plan. The
best things are done without noise.
Referring to Christ‘s mission in Ca-
purnaiuiii. how he went out of his
way to heal the sick. lame and
blind and the influence r good
possible by a. group of 400 men in
a. community of 15.000 children by
talking. acting and living clean. It
is not what trade or profession one
works at that proves the man but
whether or no the spirit of Chris-
tianity underlies one’s motives. It
is the thrill of giving and not the
thrill of getting that brings true
happiness and. satisfaction.

Mr. Ellenwood posses a magnetic
personality and inspires his hearers
by his frank man to man statements.
He never intimates perfection Sut
simply striving as one trying to be
good and to be better. holding that
when one recognises his own short-
comings and tries to live as the low-
ly Nazarene taught. he is on the
sure road to success and happiness.

The enrolment campaign is now
at its height and it is expected that
by the end of this week every com-
pany will be "recruited“ to full
strength. The enrolment cards are
coming it fast and the members
are be amigned as fast as they
enter. The class is broadcasting an
invitation to every man in the city
and it is expected that the Regent
thsaitre will be filled to capacity next

Chairman Pollard said: "We feel
that we need the cooperation of the
newspapers in this work from now

loyal to their city that they will give
uosli of the assistance possible. This
audit will mean a great deal to the
city. The records will be complete
and the taxpayers relieved of fur- .
tiier annoyance. It is the plan of the
auditors and the auditing committee
to give reports out to the newspa-
pers from this point on and I sin-
cerely hope that they cooperate with
us.“ -

of the committee for which he
spoke. .

"Co-operation" means to work
with. to aid. help and support.

The Sentinel knows of no way in
which a newspaper can work with
an investigating committee except
to support the committee in every
demand it may make for the fullest
possible information cr-w‘rning the
matter it is investigating. and to
give the public the results of the in-
vestigation.

The Sentinel has always stood by
this committee in urging that it be
given the fullest facilities for its
probe and it has given the public the
results of the probe so far as it has
been able to get them.

What further co-operatlon does
Mr. Pollard want?

Or are we to infer that he wants
this paper to ignore its duty to its
readers and forget all about this
probe for the present?

Is that what he means by "co—
operation" ?

If so. he should be under no il-
lusions. This paper Will not: ob .
erata in any effort directed at keep.
ing the public in the dark on any
public matter. Its business is to
print news, not to suppress news.
Its readers pay to get information.
not to be joiiied along and kldded
about what is being done by their
public servants and with public
funds.

If the audit committee desires to
keep the public informed during the
progress of its. investigation it will
find the Sentinel cooperating to the
limit. *v

If the committee desires to keep
the public in the dark it will. we
trust, find tlg: Sentinel the most daz-
zling spotlight it has yet encoun
cred. "
