Wheu the Sherman antt-truat MU tonk effert, In IH9O. there were but a few trust* After It had been in oper ation for nineteen yearn -at the clone of the Kooaevclt iidnilntalration there Wore ten thousand trusts. The law was aimed at the commercial abuses which con*trained trade, but 1n lie actual working It encouraged the build ing up of large monopolies. Why? Because, when the question of tno nopoliea came to the court*, the t'oiTHs ruled that labor belonged In the iwta *or> of commodities subject to monop oly During all lhe»e vears whit* crimi nal proceed] nyr ugnlnat commercial conspiracies Were resulting general!' In failure, the right of laboring men to organise and form unions whh gene rally recognised aeta conaplracy. It was no difficult matter, under tht* Juriic’al fallacy, to try, convict and lin - prison labor without a Jury. In seve ral c*»ee striker* were forbidden the right of assemblage, by Injunction, and in many cases extremely liurah pm. labnient* were given for "construc tive contempt." Is It any wonder that labor, finding Itself thwarted of Ita rights and rank ling under the tnjustlcea and arbitrary claims of capital, grew arbitrary, ex acting and aweeplng In Ita demand*, demanding exemptions regardless ol Its acta and deserts and frequently dis regarding law after the example set it by the successful evasion of the trusts Is It any wonder that class chasms grew greater and deeper, that hitter ness aud antagontam v rapldly ferment •d and with the Increasing power of the employing classes there came ait Increasing danger from the employed? Yet, the Sherman anti-trust law was designed, not a r a weapon against Is bor. but as a check upon commercial combinations anting In restraint of trade. The courtaby their rullnsa held that labor Is a commodity and like any other commodity la subject to monopo lisation The unlonlalng of labor was accepted aa conspiracy constraining trade. Thia la exactly what made a new antt-truat law neceaaary. Under th# Clayton bill, about to become law, la bor's right to form unions Is given distinct recognition. This la the sig nificant feature of the bill end *t means better justice, greater kindness ami a great stimulus to the feeling of brotherly love between classes.

"What happened to you?" asked Hobby, anxious to hoar all about It. “11l begin at the beginning," an id luualUa "One day my little mother took me in a carriage to visit a little friend of hern and she Imd a mother cut and five kittens. “The kittens were very cunning and the other little girl was playing they were dolts and drekkod them in her dolls clothe*.

"When we come away the little girl gave on* of th* kittens to my ltttle mother. "'lt’s tols of fun to have a live doll |o play with," she said. ‘Put on on* of Drusllla'n dresses and play the kitten la a doll.’ “Well, I don't think anything would happen even then. My little mother carried the kitten all thr way home hi her arms, and when wo were In the house she took me out of the carriage and put me on the floor by a worldw. where there \va* a heavy curtain that reached the floor. A WOMAN’S WAY! Somehow a woman seems to get more for her money than a man. She seems to have a better appreciation of the intrinsic value of a dollar. She knows "just the things that look best” and "wear best” and where they are sold at lowest prices. Women are readers of advertising because they find that it pays. They keep posted because they turn the knowl edge to the advantage of their own pocketbooks. Experience has taught them that it pays to deul with men who advertise. INDOOR SPORTS - - By Tad "Th* next morning when the maid was dusting the room she did not move the curtain and there I waited expecting every minute my little mother would come for me. At last she came Into the room, and Bobby Jones, what do you think she had? She was wheeling my carriage and in It was that kitton In one of my night dresses, and on its head was one of my bonnets. "It was raining so, my little mother played in that room right near me without ever sneaking my name once. She look my lirush and brushed the kitten's fur. and she even used my lit tle halti sponge. Then she held It In her arms and sang to it and tried to make It drink from my cup, but the kitten Jumped out of tier arms and ran. I do not know all that happened tlio next few days. It was pleasant weather and my little mother took tlint kitten In my carriage In the park. I don't lielieie 1 can ever show my face there again.” "How did you get hack here?" asked Bobby, when Drusllla stopped speak ing. "Oh' my little mother brought me. This afternoon she had the kitten In the room where 1 was, dressed In my cape and bonnet, and she did some thing the kitten did not like. 1 guess, for It scratched her and she dropped It and began to cry. "The kitten ran behind th* curtain, where I was hidden and sat right on mo. too. The nurse came running into the room when she heard my lit tle mother crying, and when she look ed for the kitten she found me. "I could almost forgive that nurse for cverythlrg she over did for what she said when she found me. "‘Why, here Is Drusllla!’ she said; ‘she Is much better for you to play with than that naughty kitten. Taka her out for a ride tn her carriage and let the kitten run away Drusllla never seratrhea and the kitten will spoil your little hands If you keep on playing with her.’ "My little mother dried her eyes and took nte In her srma.” Drusllla did not speak again, and Robby was wise enough not to ask any more queatlon* and the click of Bobby’s cover as it closed was the last sound heard In the playroom that •night.

McEwan, Secretary New York State League of Savings and Loan Associations). • The year 191$ marked an epoch tn th* history of co-operative savings and loan associations In the state of New York, which may be classified under new and desirable legislation, increase the assets. Increase in mem bership, Increase in number of asso ciations: In other words, the year was satisfactory from every angle. New laws recently went into effect—the most important of which la the Land Hank act. In th* matter of assets, the local or co-operattvo associations, which this league represents, increased their re source* In 1913 $5,21)0,000, or mor* than nine and one-half per cent, and the total assets are $59,493,000. Total assets of all associations tn the state are $04,250,000. Our associations did a business of $84,000,000 last year. The dues re ceived from members was 116.T22.000i a remarkable amount when It is con sidered that it practically represent ed smalt weekly or monthly savings, the average of which la less than 35 a month.

There Is no doubt that our plan has opened the door of opportunity to thousands of men and women, who would other wise have drifted along In a material sense, and that our associations stand for the conservation of a great deal of what is best in life. Our neighboring state of New Jer sey is so closely Interwoven with in terests of the City of New York that it I* appropriate to say a word about th* associations in that state as thou sands of men and women who work in New York City live in New Jer sey and are members of their home associations. There are 280,000 mem bers of associations in that state, or on* In every six of the population, and more than one-half of these mem bers live in the comnfuting district of New Y'ork City. The assets of the associations in New Jersey are $106,- 000,000 for the year ending last Octo ber. Savings and loan associations are also growing In most of the states of the Union. There are remarkable In creases In Pennsylvania. Ohio and Massachusetts. The figures are get ting so large as to be quite beyond my ken: for example, one billion, two hundred and fifty millions In assets and 2.200.000 In membership in the United States. of speculation Is apparently over, and gamblers who profited by the war to create n general scare ltave overplayed their game.

In the November Womans Home Companion Anna Steese Richardson, director of the Better Babies Bureau of that publication, describes the work for better babies in two Southern cities and she shows how thinking on behalf of th<j welfare of babies has resulted in much civic improvement. In the following extract taken from her article Mrs. Richardson describes a recent development in Shreveport, Louisiana: "Years ago, Shreveport used to share with scores of other Southern cities the fear of yellow fever and the curse of malaria. They' laugh at that little phrase 'yellow fever’ today, and they have malaria on the run. Why? Be cause the health board has been stressing fly and mosquito campaigns.

Chandler, president'of the city's health department, took the representative of the Woman's Home Companion on an inspection tour of Shreveport's hack yards. There were colored quarters, but no slums. There were shabby houses, but no mudholes around them. Behind a row of very simple-looking new cottages flower and vegetable gardens were blooming. Doctor Chandler pointed to the gay spots of color with pride: ‘ 'A few years ago nobody could live here. It was a mudhole, a clay swamp. The only- crop was the deadly mos quito. Now those people raise fruit and flowers.’ •Shreveport lias an enviable record in infant mortality—not a single case of infantile paralysis in eleven months: Not a single death from typhoid, white adult or child, in twenty-one months!" +'7^s Augusta, Ga.
