is his bath. In India elephants are
used to draw the great guns of the
heavy batteries. They take their baths
in the barracks at the trougbs where
they drink, and they behave much bet
ter about it than many children. They

they are washed by their attendants.
They turn themselves about very
promptly to suit their convenience
The attendant rubs the hide with q
piece of stone instead of sponge, and
IL the stone slips out of his hand the

trunk and hands it back. After they
have been we'll scrubbed the elephants

Establishes s-Hour pay.-After a re.

Establishes e-Hour Day.-After re-
markably steady run throughout the
manufacturing season, the Deere &
Mansur company has established an
8-hour workday in all departments of
its plant, and this policy will probably
be maintained till the plant is closed
for the annual inventory late in June.
The workday will be between the
hours OF a. m. and D. m. The corn
planter shop has maintained a good
record throughout the period of bust
ness depression, operating the shops
constantly on 10-hour basis since
work was resumed last fall following
the usual inventory LII some depart
| ments the men were employed as high
as IL hours day at different times
when there was extra demand on the
stock. The total output ranges close
to that of more prosperous years. and
on some lines the output quite met
that of the best years in the company's
history. About GOO men are affected
by the reduced workday.

May Close Wednesday Evenings
1t is quite probable that within a short
| while the grocers of the city will dis
continue opening their places of bust
ness on Wednesday nights. Already
the butchers have taken action and
after May their markets will not be
opened after $50 on Wednesday
nights. Tuesday night at the quarter

| association, 10 grocerymen favored the
idea of closing on Wednesday nights,
and this will be definitely decided at

board of directors of the Moline club
Tuesday evening. To the present the
minimum age has been Is years. and
many of the high school boys availed
| themselves of the opportunity to join
| the club. With the approach of the
club membership to the point where a
| waiting list will be established, it was
| deemed wisest to make a change in
| the minimum age The resident mem
| bership today is about $50, and a wait

club includes 800 members. The di-
rectors also made arrangements for
the annual club election May -.
Discusses Athletic FieId.-A real eff
fort is to be made at once by the Bus
