1t is intended to impart a thorough education
in the shortest possible time and at the least
expense. Five months is equivalent to two
years in other institutions, owing to the pc
culiarity Of the system pursued Only q
limited number of boys can be received, and
they must be at least IA years OF age. No
classes are had, but each boy studies alone
and receives individual attention; grown
boys, therefore, are lot obliged to enter classes
with the smaller boys.

LEDGER.
j. III. Walker, Worcester shoe
manufacturer, was before the
Hewitt committee in New York
city. He said that the losses to
the manufacturers since 1873 by
shrinkage of values in the sole
leather business, reached the sum
100000, and the boot and shoe
trade would show similar loss.
There is now no profit for a
capitalist in the boot and shoe
trade. Manufacturers keep supply
orders in anticipation Of coming
prosperity. OF the workingmen,
.he statistics and his own memory
showed that in 1910 they got one
dollar per day for thirteen hours
labor, and III 1860 two dollars per
day At the present time the
wages average two per day, with
ten hours labor. The introduce
tiou Of machinery has enabled the
men to produce about IA per cent.
more work, and OF better quality.
The working people, he thought,
were 50 per cent. better off than
in 1910 in their ability to enjoy a
higher civilization III every way.
Mr.. Hewit-Can, or do, the men

Ayes. In 1910 there were
four firms III Worcester, composed
Of seven individuals, with an
annual production of Il, 800 cases

was one dollar per day. Not a

in the trade, and only one died III
comfortable circumstances. In
1880 there were eighteen men
making boots and only one retired
with any capital. In 1860 twenty

have gone out OF business with

was the son OF a capitalist. To-
day there are twenty one firms IL
