In Reality the Unions Stand Three to Two for Retirn to Work--What Some of the Men say, When interviewed to-day regarding the Locomotive Works strike, one of the workmen who is forced to remain idle, stated that those who desire to g0 back to work on the agreement | offered by President Wallace are not satisfied altogether with the conces- sions obtained, but feel, that consid- ering all the circumstances, it would be better to accept them now and {return to work trusting to obtain {further concessions at a more favor- able time in the future, rather than adopt a stubborn attitude that may destroy the value of the unions. The more thoughtful workingmen are of this attitude, and are very resentful toward the agitators who have endeavored to domineer at all deliberations. A case of gross in- justice is pointed out, injustice to- ward those who have expressed a de~ sire to return. It is in the fact that the patternmakers' union is counted as a unit when but three men are employed at the Locomotive Workers . The painters' union was also permitted to be recorded, while as a matter of fact only one man works. at the plant. The unions stand in reality three to two for re- turn to work. It is also charged against the agi- when the unions stood two to four for returning, ('rganizer Harper was engaged apparently to negotiate a settlement, but the direct resuit of his work was to swing two unions over, and change the major- ity favorable to the agreement.

An official picture is desired. One : you sent shows the Prince without hat or coat and with khaki shirt collar turned in. Charmiag dos- habille, but hardly dignified enough." Then came the answer: "Sorry you dislike it. It's the Prince's . favorite picture, taken with the Canadians in France and in every sense official."

'An opera'singer who gets $50,000 & yéar goes up inthe alr--and we call it temperament. The idea is that if we're going to have grand opera then we've got to have a high- strung woman who gets eranky and bawls out the service, the. kitchen, the laundry, the dry cleaners, the florist and the new gown that--hang it all, Oh, eyerybody's against me-- came with 4 spot on it. But Nousemaids and cooks iy different, as a general rule. ; are a mystery. Usually Ene quit, nobody knows why. It's a se- cret they keep to themselves. They explain, but théy know, the explan- ation is only half the story, if it's that much, Sphinxes---that's 'what the cooks and housemaids are these days. Our best medicine man and psychologists and high-ups in learning try to read|. these sphinxes and write magazine articles on how fo keep a good cook or house girl. And {t's no EO They can't tell' us. A good classy girl who knows how to keep a kitchen straight, and wash' babies and dress babies right, is a mystery to herself, She quits when she wants to quit and not before then nor 'till then. . And, of course, when she wants to guit then it's up to her to find another place, to go somewhere else. And when she goes she is a niystery to herself like the tribes of Israel starting for the Pro- mised and ar Columbus on his way to undiscovered America. A sphinx, a mystery, to hersélf as well as others, she demands the right to be as temperamental as a $150,~ 000 a year opera singer, retreating instinctively behind the impregnable fact that while opera singers have temperament, they never have house mald's knee. The London Times recently had an interview with a titled English- woman who said that a housemaid should be called "Miss and referred to as a "home bird." This would be democracy in the home, Home bird -- that sounds poetic. And a real home bird, the real thing, fits and wings her way hither and yon from cellar to garret, keeping the place clean. She is a helper and builder, the human wren. They Do It In France, Too. When' it 'comes to the matter of political trickery, modern nations one and all beem to be pretty well tarred with 'the same brush; The following incident - retold with a flavor of Gallic irony by the Cri de Paris is said to have takem place at Toulouse. On election day a young man came to a booth to vote. "But, monsieur," said one of the overseers, "you have alfeady voted." "17 allons done! I am certain that I have not."
