SAME OLD STORY
The central body received a com
munication from the Ohio State Fed
eration, Tuesday night, in which Sec
retary Donnelly states that they are
in receipt of a letter from Mr. Fred
Tish, secretary-treasurer of the La
bor Council of Coshocton, in which
he informs the federation that two
advertising solicitors by the names
of B. F. Gilkinson and J. Jerome
slipped into their city and represented
them on a Labor Review, and that
they collected about $100 and flew
away. They never issued any review.
The trades unionists of, Coshocton
never knew that they were in the city
until after they had left. They want
the central' body to notify them if
these men are located and they will
arrest them for misrepresentation.
There is a bunch of grafters who
prowl around the state continually
using the name of labor to fleece the
merchants, manufacturers and busi
ness men whenever possible, with all
sorts of fake advertising schemes.
Labor unions will be doing a good
piece of work for themselves and

operate in cleaning the state of these
grafters. Labor unions never profit
one cent by their operations and the
merchant who gives them his money
is throwing it to the birds.

VINCENT PATER
One day each year the Fraternal
Order of Eagles, throughout the
length and breadth of the land,
pauses in its pursuits of life to honor
and pay loving tribute to its dead.
Butldr Aerie No. 407, the local lodge,
i as set aside Sunday, February 25,
this day. The memorial services
will be held Sunday afternoon at 2:30
clock at the high school auditorium,
he Eagles have gained a splendid
putation for the completeness of
iieir memorial services in the past
nnd the committee in charge are plan
ing for the most impressive services
be held Sunday ever before at
smpted by the local lodge.
A little something different in Sun
lay's program, and one rather un
isual, is that a- local man, or boy
i.3 he is better known, will deliver
lie principal address. He is Vincent
i'ater,
the well known young attorney,
is many friends are anxious to hear
im, and no doubt will take advan
ige of the opportunity advanced for
unday and will turn out by the hun
reds. The committee has arranged
splendid vocal and instrumental
urogram for the services. The public
-i heartily invited to attend these
Kagle services.

HOLBROCK-RIEDEL
SHOESTORE
Sign Agreement With Re
tail Clerks' Union
Hamilton has a new shoe store,
nd a union store at that. Carl Hol
rock and Joe Riedel, two of Hamil
)n's best known shoe clerks, have
ntered business for themselves in a
andsomely appointed room under
eath the Second National Bank, 228
High street. This location is best
nown as the room occupied for 30
ears by the Heck book store. Carl
Holbrock and Joe Riedel are two old
members of the local Clerks' Union,
and it is needless to say that they
ha%'e signed agreement with that
organization and that their store will
always be conducted strictly under
union conditions. Their host of
friends, especially those in the ranks
of local organized labor, will wish
them unbounded success in their ven
ture.
WEISERT UNION
TOBACCO
A representative of the John Wei
sert Tobacco Company, of St. Louis,
visited the central body meeting
Tuesday night. He distributed free
trial packages of the products of this
concern among the delegates. The
names of some of their brands are
Pike, 54, Big John, Insert, Orphan
Boy and 93 Clipping. The represen
tative will visit all the organizations
before leaving the city.
KLONDYKETO START
The members of Machinists' Local
No. 241 report that the Hamilton
Machine Tool Company, known locally
as the Klondyke shop, is trying very
hard to start operations. The Ma
chinists' Union wants it kjiown that
they have never made a settlement
with this concern. The trouble which
started several years ago has not
been adjusted, and members of the
union are asked to report the same
to all machinists.
CLERK'S PROGRAM
ENDORSED
Delegates of Retail Clerks' Union
reported to the Central Labor Council
that they are giving a benefit show at
the Rialto theatre, and are issuing a
souvenir program. They asked the
endorsement of the council for their
project. The same was granted.

THE BUTLER COUNTY PRESS'
H. COWLEY-CARROLL
Local Rector Advocates Ad
vertising For Church
Church advertising finds an en
thusiastic advocate in Hubert Cowley
Carroll, rector of Trinity Episcopal
Church. This is made manifest in a
page and one-half article in "The
Poster," national journal of poster
advertising and poster art.
In his article Rev. Cowley-Carroll
said in part:
"It has become increasingly obvious
that if the church is to bring its work
the notice of the mass of people at
present out of, or indifferent to its
influence, it must advertise like any
other concern seeking the interest
and allegiance of the public.
"When the church as a whole cre
ates a demand for effective publicity
the advertising professional will spe
cialize in that field far more than it
does at the present time. The pub
licity of the church should be in the
hands of an expert, sympathetic with
the aims and ideals for which he is
working. Perhaps it is not at all vis
ionary to contemplate the time when
students of theology may have the
elementary principles of the psychol
ogy of advertising added to the cur
iculum with the psychology of re
ligious education. It would seem that
the latter is incomplete without the
former.
"In the opinion of the writer, there
is a very definite field for the use of
the poster for church purposes,
hether for community "Go to
Church" and other campaigns, or for
ndividual organizations. It is quite
unnecessary to state that the church
like an another organization must
make use of business methods in a
business world."
Rev. Cowley-Carroll's article was
accompanied by a picture of Trinity
church, and the large poster used to
announce the centennial celebration
of Trinity parish last October. Dur
ing the time the poster was in posi
tion it attracted much attention and
brought forth much favorable com
ment. It was designed and erected
by W. M. Goodwin, poster advertiser.
The work was all done by local em
ployes of Mr. Goodwin, and needless
to say that they are all good union
men. This, of course, counts much
for the efficiency of the work.
Mr. Goodwin is to be congratulated
upon the national recognition of his
work obtained, but it is no more than
he justly is entitled to.
OPPOSE STATE INSURANCE
Albany, N. Y.—Casualty companies
oppose state-controlled workmen's
compensation insurance. These pri
vate concerns are loading the mails
of legislators with their propaganda
in favor of exploiting the misery of
disabled workers and the families of
workers killed in industry.

Nation's High Court Close
Decisions Questioned
Washington.—The United States
supreme court was attacked at both
ends of the capitol because of its
5-to-4 decisions. Senator Borah pre
sented a bill which would necessitate
seven members of the court concur
ring before an act could be declared
unconstitutional. This would apply
only to cases over which the court
has appellate jurisdiction that is, to
cases that come to the court on ap
peal. Congressman Frear, of Wiscon
sin, introduced a constitutional
amendment along the same lines.
