The young women of West Scranton
are avaiing themselves of the associa-
ton. Many are desirious of entering
classes as soon as they can be formed.
The two important questions before
the association are: Will the West
Scranton people support the association
financially? and are the rooms large
enough:
There is no trouble in getting young
women in as we have a secretary who
has Il welcome for every class.

4 Wilkes-Barre physician, testifying
| before the presidents arbitration COM
| mission, declared that fully 80 per cent.
of the men who work in the coal mines
are anaemic. their health impoverished
and their general condition below par,
thus decreasing their earning powers.
The word "anaemic" Is Il medical term
| used to describe Il condition in which
the blood Is deficient in quality, giving
the victim pallid look, dull eyes and
lstless manner.
That ninety-nine of every one hum
dred miners are afflicted with this dis
| ease is n revelation to most people, but
Il fact of much deeper concern Is that
the conditions that promote this disease
exist in shops and factories in almost
every city throughout the country.
Physicians who appeared before the
commission testified that life is short
ened by work in the coal mines 1t is
equally true that hundreds of thousands
of men and women at work in our great
factories will die sooner because Of be-
ing there.
The testimony adduced before the
commission is substantated by the fol-
lowing evidence given by one of the
coal miners whose experience not only
points out a danger, but shows that a
remedy is at hand.
A COAL MINERS EVIDENCE.
David Collins, miner living at New
Straitsville, Ohio was a victim OF amaze
mia and the disease had reached that
stage called ''pernicious" which is gen.
orally regarded as hopelessly incurable.
In his statement he says:
''The disease came upon me very
gradually. One Of the physicians who
attended me said it must have been
coming on for about three years before
it finally brought me so low that I was
confined to my bed. I first noticed the
effects Of it about eighteen months be-
fore l took to my bed with it. My
stomach was most affected. 1t became
very sensitive and would not retain
food at all. MY bowels also troubled
me. my limbs were swollen and I had
frequent hemorrhages OF the teeth, and
gums and nose.
For nine months l was under 4 ply
sicians care but I kept growing worse
till I was obliged to stay in bed. After
