Mapping the Nation

quadrangles. and show by system of
contour lines all topographic features,
giving elevations as determined by
the surveys spirit level work. The
quadrangles are areas limited by par.

longitude, and differ in size with the
latitude Of the areas and with the
scales Of the maps.

why He Couldn't cit Down.

Harry. aged six. is an orphan: but
an indulgent grandmother and kind
maiden aunt have taken care of him.
The first pair Of knickerbockers were
secured recently. and 1t was proud
moment for the boy when his aunt
put them on him on Sunday morning
and he was permitted to go to church
with his grandmother. Naturally
maiden aunts know very little about
the arrangement of knickerbockers.
and there was suspicious fullness in
front and an equally mystifying tight
ness in tho back to be observed, as
the little chap trudged happily along.
In church Harry sat down. but did
not appear comfortable and stood up.
Harry. sit down." whispered his
grandmother. He obediently climbed
back on the seat, but soon slipped on
again. Harry, you must sit down"
Grandma, l can't. My pants is chok-

than her dim sight had before permit
ted, and discovered the new little
knickerbockers were on hind side be-
fore. Harry stood up during the re-
mainder of the service.

SHORTAGE Of
LABOR FACES
RAIL ROADS
sentlnel specIal serrice

oeHtluel SpeClGI service.
Denver, Sept. 21.-Railroad COM
panies with headquarters in Denver
are complaining of a shortage of la
Dor In this state and in the west
generally. Recent attempts to Sc
cure men for work on divisions in
Colorado and other adjacent states
develops anu unusual shortage of this
class of workmen, and as result the
roads are considerably retarded in
their work of improvements and bet
terments.
The Rock Island reports that re-
Gently an effotr was made to secure
men to be used on section gangs and
that practically none could be had.
Recently there has been a demand for
this class of workmen on sections in
Colorado and Nebraska The road
announced that employment of this
kind could be given to at least $50
men.
The same condition prevails with
nearly every road running through
Colorado, and the companies are face
to face with genuine shortage of
laboTers.
The main reason assigned for this
shortage is the fact that better wages
are offered laborers in the orchards
and on farms than are paid by the
roads, hence the difficulty in getting
men to work on the roads.
In the past the railroads eXperien-
ced little difficulty in securing for
eigners, but they like the American
workman. are looking out for better
wages and are svailing themselves of
the unprecedented demand for help
in the orchards and on the farms
where they receive better pay.
LabCrers are not only scare in Col
orado. but the same conditions exist
in other states of the east, west,
south and north.
Pecarse of the shortage of common
lahorers esnecially are the western
roads hammered in completing their
Mans on nearly all the lines that ra-
date through this state. The Rio
crende has had much trorble in get
tine the men necessary TO keen work
