The New Labor Chief.


ON THE MASSACHUSETTS, PLAN.
special dispatch to the Philadelphia Press
from Boston, January Goth, says: The Massachu-
sets bureau OF labor statistics is the oldest IN the
country, and those In other states which have been
modelled upon it have succeeded. while those not
modelled upon 1t have partially failed. ~ under
stand that II Is President Arthur'S wish to have
the national bureau tnaugurated on the Massa-
chusettS model" said Colonel Carroll d. Wright,
who has been appointed chief of the national
bureau Of labor statistics "The provisions Of
the act give quite general powers to the chief OF
the bureau as to the appointment OF clerks and
necessary assistants The chief clerk is appointed
by the Secretary OF the Interior, on the recon-
mendation of the chief OF the new bureau
Whether the Others are recommended by the
civil service commission or not would make no
special difference to me, as politics would never
enter into the conduct OF the ONCE while 1t was
under my charge" Colonel Wright will not re-
sigh the ONCE OF chief OF the state bureau OF labor
statistics for the present at least as the decennal
state census is about to be taken. He will not en-
barrass Mr.. Cleveland, and, should the new Presi-
dent desire him to retain the position permanently
he will probably do so. He Will expend $4,000 In
putting the office In running order.

HOUSE KNOWLEDGE FOR BOYS.

A Communication of "Girls' WOrk''-A
Mothers FOrethOught-For the Boys.
[Scientific Americana
The governor OF Massachusetts,, in an
address before the Worcester technical
school, said some words that are worthy
of noting. He said: 81 thank my
mother that she taught me both to sew
and to knit. Although my domestic
life has always been felicitous, l have,
at times, found this knowledge very
convenient. A man who knows how to
do these things, at all times honorable
and sometimes absolutely necessary to
preserve ones integrity, is ten times
more patient when calamity befalls than
one who has not these accomplish
ments.
4 commentator of 'girls' work"
from such an authority emboldens the
writer to add a word in favor of teach
ing boys how to do work that may be a
relief to nervous, sick, worried and
overWorked mother or wife, and be of
important and instant use in emergen-
cies. A hungry man who can not pre-
pare his food, dirty man who can not
clean his clothes, a dilapidated man
who is compelled to use a single nail
for sewed- on button, is helpless and
pitiable object There are occasions in
almost every mans life when to know
how to cook, to sew, to keep the
house, to wash, starch and iron, would
lie valuable knowledge. Such knOwl-
edge is no more unmasculine and g EN-
mate than that of the professional
baker.
During the great civil war, the fore
thought of my mother in teaching me
the mysteries of household work was a
sweet boon, as the late Artemus Ward
would say. The scant products of for
aging when on the march could be
turned to appetizing food by means of
the knowledge acquired in boyhood, and
handy use of needle and thread was a
valuable accomplishment.
Circumstances of peculiar priyation
compelled the writer, as head of help
less family, to undertake the entire work
The instruction of boyhood enabled him
to cook, wash, starch, iron, wait on
the sick, and do the necessary mental
labor of the house in a measure
bly, clearly and quiet manner. This
knowledge is in no way derogatOry to
the assumptive superiority of the male
portion of humanity; boy who knows
how to sweep, 70 tidy up" to make a
bed, to wash dishes, to set table, to
cook, to sew, to knit, to mend, to wait
on the sick, to do chamber work, is none
the less a boy; and he may be a more
considerate husband, and will certainly
be a more Independent bachelor, than
without this practical knowledge. Let
the boys be taught housewor <; it is
better than playing ''seven up" in a
saloon.
