The strike that for two weeks tied up all tho lumber-yards is over ; the men are back at work. But it gave everybody time to think. Here are some of our thoughts : Wo make money by helping peoplo to build. Would more money be mndo if building were stopped? Building is a hard, tough job at best. We try to make it easier. It is usually slow; wo try to make it quicker. It is very costly; wo try to make it cheaper, and still make money. Would more bo made if wc wore stopped? Well, for two weeks everybody has been stopped. Is anybody better off? Has somebody gained by tho strike? Wo haven't. The people who want houses certainly haven't. Some of tho strikers got $5.00 from tbc union, but that 55.00 was in place of two weeks' pay, say ?54 to $70. No, everybody seems to havo lost, as usual. A strike is war. Those who start war. always think they will gain by it, but nftcr it is over, tho peoplo who havo gained are hard to find. Do you suppose tho Kaiser and his staff have a lot of war-profits concealed about their clothes? Wo believe that evorybody will mako more money if everybody works than if everybody strikes. So we aro going to stick to our woik, as before. Somo day you'll build. If you want tho work fin ished on time, Beo that the lumber comes from LLOyD. William M.
