To Be Big Feature of
Eagles' Annual Outing
'The annual outing of Butler Aerie,
F. 0. E., will be held at the fair
grounds Monday, July 4. As usual the
big $1,000 fireworks display will in
elude many new and novel features,
among which are a gigantic reproduc
tion in line of fire of George Wash
ington. This set piece is unquestion
ably the foremost outstanding feature
of the entire program in its glory and
color. This set piece will be built up
on a frame 10 feet by 10 feet, and
when in action there will be mass
of fire extending twenty-five feet
from all parts of the set piece. Two
18-inch American flag shells and one
18-inch searchlight shell, to be shot
into the air the same time George
Washington's set piece is in action,
and then a shell of 24-inch calibre
will release 21 salutes in the air for
a salute to the American flag and
George Washington.
Modern Naval Warfare
An engagement between one of our
own battleships and an enemy battle
ship—the outline of two gigantic
battleships appear in lines of varied
colored fire, and almost instantly the
firing shots. The turret and deck
guns of the battleships will be seen
to belch forth in terrific broadsides.
The blazing flames and deafening re
ports of the heavy guns, together with
crisscross fire between ships, presents
a picture of modern naval warfare
and attack that for snappy action,
spectacular effects and realism can
not be equalled.

ECONOMIC DARKY IN
THE WOODPILE
The unadmitted cause of all our
economic woes boils down to just
this:
Capitalists, by the logic of their
own system, face the irreduceable
fact that labor cannot support capi
tal and itself on less than enough to
support itself. Labor cannot support
capitalism on just enough to support
itself And capitalism is not self
supporting.
Capitalists think money is wealth,
that it grows by some inexplicable
inherent power of its own.
Capitalists think they can pay labor
a million dollars in wages, and by a
process of interest and profit-taking,
get back a million and a half dollars.
This depression and the other eigh
teen recorded for the past century
and a half proves that capitalism is
constantly overtaking the purchasing
power of the masses.
If capitalists would permit labor to
get a substantial margin over and
above bare needs—that then would

not be capitalism—that would be
common sense, like truth is supposed
to be embraced only by children and
fools. That would be capitalism for
labor, which, of course, is unethical
absurd: undignified.

everything. If you can think of or

JOBLESS AID
Costing New York Enor
mous Sum Yearly
New York City (ILNS)—Public
and private relief agencies are spend
ing at the rate of $65,000,000 a year
for direct aid to the destitute unem
ployed, an expenditure "wholly un
precedented in the history of Nev
York city, according to an analysis
prepared by the research bureau of
the Welfare Council.
This expenditure is exclusive of
municipal and state aid to the desti
tute blind, to widows, and to needy
aged persons living outside of insti
tutions, the combined expenditures
for which at present are at the rate
of $20,000,000 a year.
William Hodson, executive director
of the council, said there is no way
of ascertaining what proportion of
the latter expenditures are directly
attributable to the present depres
sion. In the opinion of the welfare
council, however, "it is safe to assume
that a considerable part of this need
is a by-product of long-continued un
employment."
Relief Spending Soars
The analysis shows that the expen
diture for unemployment relief by
private agencies, which are supported
through contributions, increased
from $4,000,000 in 1930 to nearly $14,
000,000 in 1931, and to $7,840,000
during the first four months of 1932.
The expenditures for unemployment
relief by public agencies, the council
reported, increased from $1,700,000
in 1930 to $11,600,000 during 1931,
and to $12,600,000 during the first
four months of this year.
Figures Represent Actual Aid
When the public and private ex
penditures for unemployment relief
are added to the expenditures of the
semi-official agencies, such as .the
mayor's relief committee and the
school relief work of the Board of
Education, the totals are $6,200,000
pfor 1930, $27,400,000 for 1931 and
$21,800,000 for the first four months
of 1932.
"These figures," the council said,
"represent actual relief to the unem
ployed they include neither the cost
of operating the public and private
welfare agencies nor the many health
and welfare services which families
of the unemployed share with the
rest of the community and they do
not include the cost of caring for
homeless men and women to whom no
money, b\it food and lodging, has been
given."

Explaining "Yankees"
A
Yankee Is properly a New Eng
lander or one of New England stock.
By extension it meant, first, an inhabi
tant of the northern as distinguished
from the southern United States. It
now comprises all United States citi
zens.
The story is that in 1718 one Jona
than Hastings, a farmer of Cambridge,
Mass., used the word as a puffing
epithet, meaning genuine, or something
that cannot be surpassed, as a "yan
kee" good horse, or "ysnkee" good
cider, etc. The students at Harvard,
catching up the term, called Hastings
"Yankee Jonathan." It soon spread,
and became the nickname of the New
•nglander.—Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Bobby Was Second
A writer of note tells the case of
his five-year-old niece, who on her re
turn from a party, was asked by her
mother how she enjoyed the festivities.
"Oh, the party was all right, I
guess," the little girl said, "but Bobby
was no gentleman. He knocked me
down."
"Well," from her mother, who be
lieves In children fighting their own
battles in life. "Why didn't you knock
him down?"
"I already had," from the little girl,
meekly.
Saw Crocodile as "Dragon"
A band of school children visiting
the department where a great whale
hangs overhead in the London Natural
History museum, caught sight of sev
eral stuffed crocodiles on the floor and
at once cried out: "Oh, see the
dragon lying there!" Nor could one
who knew the traditional pictures of
St. George and the Dragon wonder at
the innocent utterance of their alert
little minds. For there is something
very draconian in the appearance of
these huge reptiles.
Odd Australian Creatures
Australia is so very, very old geolog
ically that it is full of queer creatures.
The duck-billed platypus and the kan
garoo are known to all. But few know
of the tiny kangaroo mouse, which is
a small counterpart of the larger an
imal, and makes huge leaps when
chased, Just like the kangaroo. There
is also a lizard which raises its fore
legs from the ground when In flight
and works its hind legs at a terrific
pace like a cyclist pedalling in a race.
Fitted the Case
It has long been the custom for
menus to railroad dining cars to be
decorated with handsome views of
scenery along the line. This, however,
is the only time the practice has yield
ed us a paragraph. On the menu of
a Burlington train appeared the word
"Dinner," and above It a handsome
view with the title: "Royal Gorge."—

ANTI-DRY VOTE
Held Victory For Labor In
North Carolina
Raleigh, N. C. (ILNS)—The vote
of Robert R. Reynolds in the demo
cratic senatorial primary assumes
national significance, in view of the
fact that North Carolina has been
regarded as a stronghold of prohi
bition support. Reynolds, who receiv
ed some 12,000 more votes than
United States Senator Cameron Mor
rison, fanatical and wealthy dry of
Charlotte, has taken a fearless stand
in opposition to so-called prohibition,
insisting that it is intolerable and
must go. Three other candidates
divided about 70,000 votes and as
neither Reynolds nor Morrison won a
majority, a second primary will be
necessary to decide the winner, unless
Senator Morrison withdraws.
The vote of Reynolds, a six-foot
mountaineer from Asheville, was
achieved in the face of what might
