nine-tenths of all the wages earned, and constitute the great purchasing power of the country. And if this purchasing power is properly educated along these lines, "the union men will not have to walk the streets while the cheap non-union brand of human beings are putting in long hours."

Mr. Mounce tells of the fraternal feeling existing between chapels in New York. It would certainly, then, be no trouble to organize a local of the Woman's International Auxiliary that would not only increase this feeling of fraternity, this sociability, but would cement the individual families as nothing else can do. Let No. 6 write to Mrs. Charles Hertenstein, 3653 Dodier street, St. Louis, Mo., for literature and information.

MRS. J. B. MAGINNIS.

ST. LOUIS, MO.

Two interesting meetings were held during the month, with a good attendance, and we also secured the following new members: Mrs. James B. Griffith, Mrs. T. R. Drake and Mrs. S. E. Crane.

Mrs. Kane's suggestion in regard to a monument day is a move in the right direction. Which brings us the thought that we might have other days-for instance, a Butterick day. If we could all get together on a certain day and drop them a card telling them how impossible it is for us to give them any part of our trade as long as present conditions prevail in their composing rooms, it might do a little good. Such cards, coming from all sections of the country, would be bound to make them take notice.

The annual election of officers was held Thursday, December 10, and the following were elected: President, Mrs. M. Byerly; first vice-president, Mrs. A. McHenry; second vice-president, Mrs. F. Hynes; secretary, Mrs. R. J. Lowther; treasurer, Mrs. George H. Woodward; sentinel, Mrs. S. Tenny. MRS. R. J. LOWTHER.

ST. JOSEPH, MO.

Woman's Auxiliary No. 6, at its December meeting, nominated and elected officers and committees for the ensuing year. The officers are: President, Miss Carrie Cathcart; vice-president, Mrs. W. J. Jones; secretary, Mrs. J. P. Clark; treasurer, Mrs. Charles Rhode; guide, Mrs. Giuard; chaplain, Mrs. C. P. Kingsbury.

No. 6 is awaking from its lethargy of the last few months, and interest in the organization now is increasing with each meeting. Recruiting parties find no difficulty in inducing non-members to join, and the indications are that before winter gives way to spring the membership will have reached a total that would hardly have seemed possible to attain previous to last August. The realization that convention time is coming on apace, and that soon the auxiliary will be called upon to make good the promises made at Boston, has served to imbue the ladies with a determination to do everything that may be done, to the end that delegates and visitors next August may properly be entertained, and may carry away with them only pleasant memories of

St. Joseph. While Missouri hospitality is proverbial, and undoubtedly much private entertaining will be done here, it is realized that concerted action is necessary properly to look after a large number of guests, that none may regret having come to St. Joseph. MRS. CHARLES Rhode.

OMAHA, NEB.

Ahamo Auxiliary gave its usual Christmas ball December 14. It was a very successful social affair, and the financial end of it was up to the average. We raised the money we wanted. One noticeable thing about the ball was that there were more friends present than members. This is the annual ball from which Ahamo Auxiliary gets the money to send the box to the Home residents.

We regret to report that on the day this letter is written the members of our auxiliary were called to the funeral of Mrs. J. M. Hatch, of Council Bluffs, whose death occurred December 16. Mrs. Hatch was a sufferer for many months, but her death came unexpected to the members of the auxiliary, as her friends had hoped that from an operation her health would be restored to her. Mrs. Hatch leaves a husband and two small children.

Two other auxiliary members' homes are in much sorrow and dread that death may come in and take husband and father. Arthur E. Butler, well known in printerdom, and one of the truest of union men, is lying dangerously ill, and Frank Seymour, quite well known in the middle west, and a delegate to St. Louis, is also very ill. Mrs. Butler and Mrs. Seymour are members of Ahamo Auxiliary.

The local auxiliary is doing some good label work. The members are busy gathering printed matter not bearing the label and turning it in to the label committee of the union to have it returned with stickers. Prizes have been offered to the one who gathers up the greatest number. Thousands of pieces have been returned during the last few weeks. MRS. FRANK A. KENNEDY.

SECRETARIES AND CORRE-
SPONDENTS.

Items for the official columns of THE JOURNAL should be prepared on a separate sheet, and the style of the paper followed as closely as possible. Such items should not be made a part of a letter dealing with other subjects, for if this is done the items are likely to be overlooked, even though the greatest care be exercised. Write as plainly as pos sible especially proper names-using one side of the sheet only. All official matter must be in the hands of the editor BEFORE

THE TWENTIETH OF EACH MONTH, to insure insertion in the issue immediately following. The observance of the foregoing will tend to insure what is desired by allpromptness and accuracy in the publication of official matter.

Communications for the correspondence depart ment of THE JOURNAL must be in the hands of the editor BEFORE THE TWENTIETH OF EACH MONTH to insure insertion in the issue immediately following. No communication will be published that does not bear the full name of the writer.

THE JOURNAL MAILING LIST.

When a member requests a change in his JOURNAL address, he should give the name and number of the union with which he is affiliated, together with his present and former address.

Additions to the mailing list can only be made when received through the local secretary. Members not receiving the magazine should furnish the local secretary with their addresses.

Additions, corrections or alterations reported by local secretaries should be kept separate from other correspondence. When a member deposits his card, and his name is reported for the subscription list, the secretary should state where the member previously received THE JOURNAL, and give the name and number of the union with which he was affiliated. When a member draws his card, is suspended or expelled, or in any manner ceases to be an active member of the local, the secretary should request that his name be dropped from the mailing list.

A large number of those who take cards and re

move to unorganized towns fail to renew their cards. To prevent loss in such instances, it has been decided that members holding cards, and located outside of the jurisdiction of a local union, must either deposit their cards with the nearest union and pay dues each month, or pay Interna tional dues in advance, in order to get THE JOUR NAL. Where a cardholder pays his dues to the local in advance, a specific report should be made by the secretary upon the case, in order that the name can be placed on the list and the magazine sent to the member for the time for which dues have been paid.

The 25th of each month is the latest date upon which changes for the succeeding issue can be made on our mailing list.

Upon request, secretaries will be furnished with a copy of the list of their members to whom THE JOURNAL is being sent.

All correspondence regarding THE JOURNAL should be addressed to J. W. BRAMWOOD, Newton Claypool building, Indianapolis, Ind.

DELINQUENT UNIONS.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND., December 26, 1908. Section 1, article ix, of the constitution, requires that "International dues for each month shall be collected by subordinate unions and transferred to the secretary-treasurer of the International Typographical Union before the twentieth of the suc ceeding month." Under this law the November per capita and the November old age pension assessment of all unions was due at headquarters not later than December 20. The following unions were delinquent for per capita, the eight-hour assessment or old age pension assessment on December 26, having failed to make their returns.

In this connection attention is directed to section 16, article vi, of the by-laws, which is as follows: "Section 16. No funeral benefit claim shall be allowed unless the deceased was possessed of a current working card at the time of his death, nor shall a funeral benefit claim be allowed if, at the time of death, the union of which deceased was a member is in arrears for per capita tax to the International Union."

ABOUT THAT GEORGIA COLONY.

Since the article appeared in the December JOURNAL I have received a great many inquiries, and all reveal the heart's longing for a home in old age. The plans as yet are not fully matured, but a committee is to be selected from those interested in the project. They are to visit St. George and make a complete and detailed report. A tract of perhaps 500 or 1,000 acres is to be selected and divided up in three, five, seven and ten-acre lots. The payments are to be arranged part down and balance in small monthly payments. From the present outlook and interest manifested I believe we can easily use 500 acres or more. Thanking those who have so materially helped to make it a success, I remain, RAY BOWDEN. Decatur, Ill.
