VERMONT LED NATION
In GRANITE OUTPUT
And Was Second to Pennsylvania in the
Total Output of Stone of Various
Kinds-Statistics Revealed by
Geological Survey.

According to statistics revealed to-day
by the U. S. department of the interior
Vermont led the United States in 1912
in the production of granite and stood
second to Pennsylvania in the output OF
stone, which includes granite. Il. f.
Burchard of the geological survey stated
that the quarrying of granite is one OF
the big industries of the country, the
total production being valued at $780,
234,04 last year. Vermont, the leading
producer, had an output Of S3,074,306,
while six other states produced more
than 81 100000 each and seven more
produced over 100000.
Over 80 per cent. of the total, or
So, ,l26,6T54, was represented in building
stone, S4,643,9l9 in monumental stone,
81 ,4S5750 in riprap, about S2,500,o00 in
paving blocks, and the rest in curbing,
tagging, crushed stone, etc. The great
er part of these values reported repre-
sent granite in the rough, the value of
the finished or manufactured stone being,
of course, far greater.
The Stone Production.
The total of the stone produced in the
United States in 1912 reached $7S ,2S4,-
572, an increase OF SI.l76,005 over 1911,
thus breaking all previous records. AL
though the percentage OF increase for
1912 over 1911 was not large, according
to Mr.. Burchard, and although some of
the varieties of stone showed a. decrease,
the total increase was considerably larg-
er than the increase of 1911 over 1910,
when the total value was s76,5205S4
the increase then being but $5s7 1888.
Pennsylvania has always held first
rank among the stone-producing states
except in 1908. when Vermont reported
the largest production. In 1912 the
keystone state produced li.6S per cent.
Of the total of the entire United States,
with Vermont second, producing Sal per
cent. Other large stone-producing states
named in order of output, are New York,
Ohio, Indiana, California, Illinois, Mas
Missouri, and Wisconsin. the
production Of each of which was valued
1T more than S2,000000.

Jim Scott, or death
Valley Jim," as his mates
and the fans call him, has
been the hero of the
White Sox this summer.
Minus the services of
the great Ed Walsh, who
was laid up with a sore
arm, the White Sox have
lowered between great
ness an dmediOcrity.
Jim Scott has been the
clubs consistent winner.
Behind him the team has
played like a stone wall
and he has held his oppO-
nents with ease ever since
he rounded into condition.
SCOTS greatest game
was one he lost when he
met up with Walter John
son in a hurting duel,
which was won by John
son when Ping Bodie fail
ed to catch a fly in the sun
field.
Scott has been with the
White SOx a couple of
years, and the form he
has been showing for the
past month speaks vol
Umes for what he should
do in 1914.

in our effort to show ourselves the true
friends of our SEX she said. I'VE
will do still better when we focus our
energies on the essential points of that
friendship. We best show our friend
ship for any one by giving her Il
chance to help herself. In other words,
we can help her by aiding her to turn
the key in the door of opportunity.
That is what we need to do. Women
should organize for opportunity for
women"
Casting a smiling glance across the
sea LondonWard she said: Not as in
an antagonistic way that may put us
back a hundred years or so. but by
making ourselves felt as a force for
construction and betterment. Every
woman should organize and be organ
lied in some movement to help her sex.
The Living Wage First.
What movements should women
favor as a help to their SEX"
The most vital is that of living
wage. If women would insist every
where and always that the difference
between the five and six dollars a
week that is generally paid for I'M
skilled labor. and the nine dollars a
week that a girl must have to live on,
is the difference between right and
wrong living, and align themselves ac-
cordingly, they would be helping their
sex. Strong public sentiment in that
direction would force employers to pay
living wages.
women could throw their powerful
influence in the scales for trade
schools, where girls will be so trained
that even in the domestic field there
would be no unskilled labor. They
could work for vocational schools and
for compulsory training in some
means of earning livelihood, in the
public schools. Whatever women be-
come thoroughly interested in they
bring about"
How can they throw this influence
in the scale as you suggest"
by working for 1t in their club or
clubs. And by forming clubs for that
purpose. Organization is power, and
we should organize more and more,
organize for opportunity for our sex.

we can do more good for our sex if,
while organizing, we consider most
thoughtfuly what our sex most needs
My own Judgment is that what woman
as such needs more than anything else
is modesty; and that what women most
need Is knowledge of the momentum Of
a word"
How do you distinguish between
woman and women in making that
statement"
in an abstract sense | think of
woman as representing the sum of our
sex qualities. Viewing us all as one, |
should say that our great need is mod
esty. Ii would seem that we appear to
have lost it. and the best first step to-
ward regaining it would seem to be to
remove all trace of makeup except
when you are dressing for the evening.
Once we could tell at q glance an eSti-
mable woman from one Of the other
sort. Now we cant. Prevalence Of
makeup on the street is to blame for
this We should set the example and
work, organize If necessary, to sup
press this folly We should impress
The most casual recognizes the COM
plexlon that is got out of box.
What women, thar is, every woman
singly considered, needs, is to know the
value of the word she utters. She must
learn not to babble. not to talk as an
hysterical vent but to weigh her words
knowing that each one has a strong
propulsive power. that words are things.
She should utter no word that means
nothing and she should speak no work
that hurts unless it is a hurt that, Hike
the wound inflicted by the surgeons
knife is necessary.
Men are far ahead of us in this
knowledge. A group of them can gath
er and discuss a matter in a purely i'm
personal way. Women find this hard "a
do. They must learn it, and a good
way to learn it is to organize. If you
belong to a club, any organization you
must recognize the power of parlia-
mentary law"
Smilingly she repeated her motto. the
motto she would have all Womanhood
follow: Organize for opportunity"
