    The text:

    How shall the ordinary worker get a fair share of these benefits; how prevent a few on top from hog- ging them?

    Organize; study; THINK!

    Try each day to learn something new and to make it count in your work.

    Go into the union as a worker, not a passenger; and if it isn’t going the way you think it ought to go, say so and help steer it in the right direction. As a voter stand for better schools, that your children may have a better start than you had.

    But first of all, brace up and take a course in self-improvement.

    Personal efficiency, personal skill, personal dependableness are still well worth-while the unit must be right before the combination can be strong.

    Make yourself WORTH more pay and more voice in the business and then DEMAND more. There is no better way to get it and to hold it.

    That’s really interesting. And optimistic.
