John K. Dale and his wife had gone Into the library with Elizabeth nt her request. The three sat down facing each other. The younger woman was ill at ease; she was glad that the lights were subdued and soft. When the silence had become heavy, she straight mil in her chair and blurted out fni terlngly: "It'll asked me to m-marry him. and 1 wouldr. t do It. 1?I thought ciayhe 1?I ought to tell you." The I'ales exchanged glances; ther they looked back at Elizabeth f.lVleford. Dale smiled n fatherly smile. Mis. Dale's eyes narrowed. The old stillness rose within her and 1 egnn to make stubborn war against him mors recently acquired common sense. "Have you quarreled?" she r.sLed. "No." 'Well," old Dale sr.Id bluntly, "wljat's wrong?" "It isn't his fault," Elizabeth told them. "I'm a savage," site went on desperately?"and lie Isn't my hind." John K. Dale retired very early that ; night. When the sound of h's foot- \ steps had died away, his wife bent to- ] ward Elizabeth and said curiously: "Why did you call yourself a savage?" Elizabeth told of her early life in the hills, of the feud between ter people and the Morelands and of how ?>he had hated the bloodshed. She toM oi the coming of Major Bradley. df her burning thirst for education, of the old trainman who bad thrown her a newspaper each day, and of the coming of Bill Dale. "I was lonesome," she continued, "and nobody ever seemed to understand .how I felt.

The rest happened in no time. Hall was already n-lookiu I along his sights. Bill Dale was nearly j out in the open.

The woman he marries mustn't be a1 a s-savnge." She stopped and stared at Mrs. Dale almost defiantly. Her head was high and her hands were clasped in her la; ; so hard that they trembled. "I think you have made a mountain j out of a molehill, my dear," the oldei woman said gently. 'What you din t was right, not wrong; any good woman would lu\e done just what you did Elizabeth, I am sure." Elizabeth Littleford faced Mrs. John I l\. D.'il^ squarely.

Bill Dale sat thinking of vhnt he had done there,in the Big I'lne conn- j try. From the stone-and-clay c'titn- ! ueys ?! the cabins of the I.ittlofurds oo tlio other side of the river the howling ' wind snatched sprays ot blue wood- i smoke. The Morelands laid gone to farms lying around Cartersville in the : lowland, on each of which a fair-sized ; Urst payment had been made, the borI rowed capital was to remain borrowed i for another year. The Morelands were already losing their outlattCisliness and growing into universal respect. David M(Ireland's dream was at lust being realized. Then Dale frowned heavily. If only lie could do as much for Babe's peo- ; pie! But he couldn't. The men of the , Littlofords still worked the coal mine. They received almost twice the customary wages, imt even that wouldn't buy them farms and educate their children. Under bis eyes lay two unanswered letters from Ids parents, lie found ( little pleasure In answering their let- i ters, for lie was si ill somewhat bitter tow ard I la in?tow ard his father becan-" of his father's ill treatment of David Morel uid and David .Mori land's people; toward Ids mother beeause she had let him go hungry for mother-love us a baby, as a child, us a hoy, ami as ( a man; toward them bulb because lie hml been reuivd'a do-not!.mg.

ITeck finished with a lazy laugh: 'Haw, haw, haw! Flee-haw, hee-haw I" "That story." Dale said wearily, "has been told on dozens of politicians. It has become a part of the history ol thi?i state." "Well, my gosh J" moaned Ry Heck.

I WHY OF TEXTILE STRIKE (Continued From Page One.) this period of reconstruction to enter, into a tight of such magnitude? The difficulties encountered wore the I j apparent unwillingness of the mill I owners to consider whether or not the! wair.-s oaid the mill workers were suf- ! V ' ficicnt to allow them to purchase the hare necessities of life. Men and women acting as commHtCfs met their em- j ploycrs or their representatives and rc; (|nested that the cuts in wages given! | them should he lessened so that they | might ho iihle to give their children i sufficient nourishment. Not only committees of the workers waited upon the employers, hut the ' Central Labor Union of Charlotte re<1 nested the governor, the mayor, the Chamber of Commerce, the .Manufacturers' Association, to come as good public minded citizens and endeavor sett'c the request of the workers for a reduction i t the cut in wages given, i All to no avail. Every obstacle was placed in the way of adjustment by the employers and the press. What were the cuts in wages? They ranged from .'57 1-52 per cent, to 65 per cent, in two of the chains of mills in Charlotte and vicinity; and in another! chain of mills where a honus was giv- j cn during the war period of 120 per! j cent., it was taken away from- the [ workers entirely. The mill workers complained to their i International Union to do something for them. The officers went to the; meetings of the workers and told them to bide their time and. they would try! every method to avoid a strike. This was done and, as stated anove, met j with complete failure. The workers i then told the International that they J would not stand for such treatment as; was accorded them by the employers, j They demanded that the International! should endorse their going out with | the understanding that the Inter-i national could not pay the strike j benefits called for In their constitution,' but would assist to the best of its i ability. On Juno 1 the workers walked out in three of the largest chains of mills as a protest against the most intolerable conditions and the most drast'c cuts in wages that have ever been given to a God-fearing people. These workers are all Americans. AH they ask Is the riirftt to work and have a say in what they should receive for that work. Surely there is nothing wrong in that request. I have no desire to add fuel to the already blazing conflagration when I say that in plain dollars and cents the cuts in wages in many instances dropped from $27 per week to $11 per week of 55 hourr and 60, and in some cases C5 hours. , , Not a country that-was engaged In! i the world war hut has given to its citl- j zens it forty-eight hour wo-k week or less, and started investigations to find! out the home conditions of its work-! i crs?all hut the United States. In the southland where textile mills are situated there you will find the] I raw material grown in abundance; cot-; i ton sufficient to supply the world's I needs; cotton at the backdoor of the; mills. There, too, you will find thej skilled textile workers, men and womj en, boys and girls, ready at all times to, ! he fair and reasonable toward their j employers, taking an interest in thej ! quality of the work they produce, i Why do tiie mill owners of Carolina refuse arbitration? Why do they spend thousands <>f dollars telling tlie*' workers to not go into a union?" Why a.*e the mill owners of the south on-| I prssecl to legislation that has for its | purpose the uplift of humanity? Why I j are the mill owners insistent that j I labor is a commodity to be bought and Isold? Why are the mill owners not, w.lling to concede to t!ir' worker the! same right as they have, namely, | l getting together in an association? All the above questions would be i i superfluous if the human facto.- war.j jll'.wr (1 to function as (Soil ordainr-d it | should la- done. It is my opinion that , much of the animosities and hatreds I ere engendered by the workings and manoeuvring* of unprincipled lawyers,!

There are many employers in the j ' south'nnd who wish to be fair, but ! cannot, owing to their environments.] They are members of an association, many of wlmse members arc labor j haters, and thtse labor haters make it j very unpleasant for an individual who lias the temerity to say that lie believes in human equation.

Let the present fight end as it may, the foundation is laid for a new morrow among the mill workers of the south; a new hope has filled their hearts that neither hunger nor suffering can alienate; the dawn of a newlife is within this vision. Knowing as I do the mill workers of the south, and realizing what can be dorte through unity, they are new in their sufficing writing in letters that can never be effaced and which when placed side by side read: "United we stand; divided we fall."

The definition as as fol lows: * 'The great degrees of liberty which we enjoy In this country, the degree o1> personal liberty which every mun and | woman enjoys, is limited by a like dc-1 gree of liberty in every other person; I and it is the duty of men and the duty of women in their conduct, in the exercise of the liberty which they enjoy to consider that every other man and woman has the right to exercise the same degree.of liberty;-that when one person enters into society?and s'ociety is the state in which personal liberty exists?each gives up something of that liberty in order that the other may enjoy the same degree of liberty.
