Kearney in tbe Atlanta Journal of La bor.. Every member owes it da a duty to work for the betterment of hie union. No union man baa any right to take out of the union everything that he can get for himself, short hours of la bor, increased pay, fair consideration of his grievance and many opportuni ty for education and pleasure, un less he is ready to pat back into that organisation a part of hie own energy, a part of hia own time, a part of his own means to keep actively alive and make something of that union. We need to lessen the spirit of self- interest so that we may not lose sight of the opportunity we have to develop for tbe future a better survival of gen eral value. The time and tha place to be good for something is now, and with the member next to you. The time to begin work for the union of which you are a member is now, and the place, your own union meeting. The fruits of unionism say to all that we ought to be proud of what we have attained, and if we can not be proud it is our duty to get busy and make of of what we have something that we may be proud of. With the approach of our biennial convention life within onr local unions assumes a more lively aspect, and generates added concern the welfare of our national organ isation, the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, The election of delegates and alter nates, the quarterly word reminder from our general secretary, the instal lation of local officers, and the ambi tious locals and Individuals who aim by constitutional changes to achieve the highest form of industrial govern ment for our unions all tend to gen uinely encourage the “booster" and to put a damper on the activities of tbs knocker." Too much it would seem is written and spoken to the demerit of the latter while too little attention is bestowed in supporting the constructive work and influence of the former. The man who kicks for a good purpose and comes forward with a suggested rem edy is a welcome character in the af fairs of our locals and is not to be compared with the "knocker” who in the silent or open pursuit of his ques tionable occupation, gradually widens scope of his criticisms and helps only in wasting energy and in destroy ing many defenses of our organization. Such a man is an arch-enemy of or ganized effort. He should be turned into a blacksmithy and sent forth to hammer for a living. The real union man and promoter of e best interests of our organization the "booster,” the one who is ever ready to boost its business, its ideals and ideas. The man who has the cour age to boost everything along help fully, and who, being a good booster, makes a good builder. Every union should teach its members that today is the day to commence doing some thing for the other fellow.

In sympathetic attention to the production of larger animals in the Bottled farlmng areas of the country, especially in the South.
