READING IN WORKSHOPS.
A Foreign Idea which l. worthy OF Nat.
nr.aIIzatIon In ThI. CnnnfrN

A Foreign Idea which l. worthy OF Nat
uraIIzstIon In This Country.
MIR. Looming, United States Consul
at Bremen. in report to our Govern
ment on the condition of the wage
workers of that city, speaks of the in
tell'gence of a class of shop hands. He
says ''they are well posted in the cur
rent news and are good politicians. :
and then proceeds TO tell how IL hap
pens that the shop hands i'm that city
are so much above the average me-
chanic in intelligence and information.
He saws: Every morning in these
large factories good reader is picked
out to read the morning papers to
them 1.-THE workmenl. while the other
workmeu contribute so much to make
up his amount of work while he reads. 3"
Such a plan does not cost each ia
borer probably one-tenth what he would
pay for copy of the paper, and he also
saves the time he would otherwise spend
in reading it.
There are many trades in which such
plan could be adopted in this coun-
try, like cigar-making and others
where there is little noise to disturb
the reader. and it is worthy of adop-
ton. Indeed, we believe it has been
dbODtGu mere IN lew SHOPS.
1t is better than the individual
reading of a paper. because in the
latter case the reader will skip articles
not of special interest to him, while in
the former the whole paper is read an,l
he is obliged to hear things he would
not himself read. Ii might be objected
that in some trades the reading would
disturb the workmen, but an hour or
an hour and half devoted to reading
! by one could not be much of disad.
vantage, even if it took the workman
attention somewhat; and if there is any
truth in the saving that labor is valu.
able in proportion TO its intelligence
| all such loss would be more than com
pensated for.
We should like to see this expert
ment thoroughly tried in this country

acquainted with events of the dav, con

the Bremen plan offers the easiest
cheapest and quickest solution of tn,
difficulty. 1t is worth a trial, ant
there is no reason why its adoption
should not have the same salutaIy cf
