cannot be reached in a day. Id therefore becomes a very serious question for yon to consider how you are to con- duct yourselves as labourers serving others. Just as there is no shame in being a labourer for one's self, so also is there no shame in labouring for others,
But it becomes necessary to find out the true relationship between master and servant. What are your duties and what are your rights ? Io is simple to under- stand that your right is to receive higher wages for your labour. And it is equally simple to know that your duty is to work to the best of your ability for the wages you receive. And it is my universal experience that as a rule labour discharges its obligations more effectively and more conscientiously than the master who has correspond- ing obligations towards the labourers. It therefore becomes necessary for labour to find out how far labour can impose its will on the masters. If we find that we are not adequately paid or housed, how are we to receive enough wages, and good accommodation ? Who is to determine the standard of wages and the standard of comfort required by the labourers. The best way* no doubt, is that you labourers understand your own righcs, understand the method of enforcing your rights and enforce them, But for that you require a little previous training education, You have been brought to a central point from the various parts of Oh a country and find yourselves congregated together, Bu'd you find that you are not getting enough, you are uot properly housed, I therefore venture to suggest to Mr. Wadia and those who are leading you and advising you that their first business is to guide you not by giving you a know- ledge of letters but of human affairs and human relations. I make this suggestion respectfully and in all humility
