Friday, Aug. 29, 1941, Vernonia Eagle, Vernonia, Oregon AMERICAN IS ON THE JOB FOR LABOR DAY is the occasion when Americans in all walks of life pay tribute to the role played by labor in building American Demo cracy. From the earliest days of our commonwealth, from Lexington and Concord onward, the laboring men and women of this country have fought and worked to fulfill the democratic ideal, knowing full well that only under a free democratic society can labor and all humanity assert its claim for a full life of creative work, true social dignity and accomplishment. LABOR DAY, this year, falls during a critical period in the history of our Democracy and for that ideal generally—but the modem workingman, like the artisan and mechanic of ’76 stands staunch and defiant against those who would obliterate all human freedoms. In factory, mine-shaft and mill, free, democratic labor is fighting the battle of production—and free, democratic labor is invincible! Thus on Labor Day, 1941, we can re-assert that “• . . it shall not perish from the earth!” This Labor Day Message Sponsored by the Following: HEATH’S SERVICE STATION SAM’S GROCERY THE APPAREL SHOP MILLER MERCANTILE COMPANY CULBERTSON’S BLACKSMITH SHOP NORRIS SODEN OREGON GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY BOB’S MEAT MARKET SQUEEZE-INN VERNONIA FURNITURE STORE—J.
