Checks are fashionable.
They are quite as much worn as last
year.
The huge plaids are not for large
women.
They range from pinpoint checks to
huge plaids.
Nothing is smarter than the blue and
green check.
Black and white shepherd checks are
perhaps most popular.

PACKERS GET CLEAN BILL.
Investigators Find Meat Is Whole
some and Yard Methods Good.

some and Yard Methods Good.
The committee of experts engaged by
the Illinois Manufacturers Association
md the Chicago Commercial Association
to investigate conditions at the Chi
,ago stock yards has made its reports,
giving the packing plants a clean bill
Of health. The products are declared
wholesome and the inspection efficient,
and nearly all the rooms are found
.leanly and under sanitary conditions.
The report covers a period of two
weeks, during which the committee in
spected conditions in fourteen packing
houses. On many points the inquiry
showed conditions satisfactory. Some
Of the comments on methods may be
thus summarized.
Night cleaning system is ample.
Carcasses of sheep, cattle and hogs
never touch floors.
Ante-mortem examination less impor-
tant than post-mortem.
Preserved meat can be, spoiled by i'm
proper handling.
Federal inspection laws sufficiently
rigid.
Condemnation of young carcasses too
strict.
Yards not injurious to live animals con-
fined therein.
Cattle inspection rigid.
Hog inspection reasonably efficient.
Sheep inspection less thorough.
Cripples and sdowners' sometimes
wholesome.
The experts made recommendation
touching sanitation in brief as follows:
Abolition of old sections of all plants
Obedience of bosses to anti-spittjng
cule.
More and modern toilet rooms.
Impervious material for killing floors.
Better light and ventilation for cutting
and trimming rooms.
Installation of fly screens.
Workmen's clothing should be cleaned
daily.
Requiring workmen to wash hands
Hospital for sick animals advised.
As to methods in vogue, improve
ments urged were in short as follows:
Preservatives should be subjected to
further inquiry.
Supervision on all materials used for
canned goods.
Clearly methods in handling picked
meats.
Scientific tests for canned goods.
Reform in methods Of utilizing unnutri-
tive meat.
Correct and explicit labels on cans.
Cleaner methods of handling sausage
meat.
Responsibility for any meat unfit for
human consumption that may in the
future get into interstate or foreign
commerce is placed squarely with the
federal authorities. In this declaration
the committee of experts represents that
it has examined the meat inspection
bill recently passed by Congress and
finds that its provisions are so strin-
gent that government inspectors are to
blame if any unwholesome meat is
passed.

the chair made vacant by the death of

will profit for lifetime.
Mime. Currie had taken a fully equal
part with her husband in the famous
discoveries of the properties of radium.
She had, indeed, been the first to study
the phenomena of radio-activity of GER
tain bodies. She and her husband
worked together in the laboratories of
the Sorbonne and were mutually de-
voted to the common aim.
Last year. when he accepted the chair

adequate laboratory in which he and

departed this life on September 2,

have no hope, for we feel that our loss
is his eternal gain. We miss him in
the church; we miss him in our home ;
a place is vacant that can never be
filed.
