The man who risks his skin in this way deserves another name." "I won't admit that," said Stolpe. "That's a little too abstract for me; anyhow, I'm not going to argue with you. But in my catechism it says that he is a strike-breaker who accepts employment where assistance is forbidden and that I stick to!" Pelle might talk as much as he liked; the old man would not budge an inch.
One day he received the summons to come downstairs and lend a hand in the centrifugal separator department. The workers had made common cause with the machine-smiths. This summons aroused him from delightful dreams of the future. He was swiftly awakened. "I am no strike-breaker!" he replied, offended. Then the engineer himself came up.
One F. Wilbur Chapman and his corps of well-trained associates may be taken as a type of the individuals who work up local religious excitement for a consideration. Religious revivals are managed very much as are street-fairs. If religion is getting at a low ebb in your town, you can hire Chapman, the revivalist, just as you can secure the services of Farley, the strike-breaker.
Now and then a strike-breaker parted from the squad and ran into the door of his dwelling, followed by a long whistle. Among the workers was a solitary, elderly man, still powerful, whom Pelle recognized.

I wouldn't do it myself! A strike-breaker is a strike-breaker, turn and twist it how you will." "A strike-breaker, I suppose, is one who does his comrades harm.
In one of the groups a dispute broke out between the players; they were reviling one another in no measured language, and their terms of abuse culminated in the term "strike-breaker." This made them perfectly furious. It was as though an abscess had broken; all their bottled-up shame and anger concerning their infamous position burst forth. They began to use knives and tools on one another.
Bivens next answered an advertisement for a strike-breaker to light street lamps, and for a person to distribute handbills at a pay of seventy-five cents a day. But his luck had changed; he never got another reply to any answer to a help-wanted "ad." But I once knew a man who put a help-wanted "ad" in the paper. He ran a hotel, and he advertised for a clerk.
