BRYAN NOT AFRAID TO WALK.

Elevator operators in the state de-

to remain on duty while the secretary
of state remains in the building. Sec
retary Bryan believes that when an
elevator conductor has worked eight
hours it's time for him to quit.
Recently Mr.. Bryan was detained
in his office until $50 in the evening.
The elevator man who runs the lift
nearest Mr. Bryan's office still was on
the job.
What hours do you work." asked
the secretary.
From S:45 a. m. until 4:45 p. M"
said the man.
We'll, it's now after $50. You
ought to have been home long ago"
But it's against the rule when the
secretary is in the building" ex-
planned the operator.

remain while this secretary is de.
tanned after hours" said Mr.. Bryan
with emphasis. Besides, 1t won't

SEEK DEATH DATA
Investigation of Infant Mortality
to Be Thorough.
Probe to Reach Small as Wei; as
Large cities, and Work VIII Be
Taken UP and Completed In
Ono Place at Time.

Washington.-An investigation of
infant mortality that is something out
of the ordinary has just been inaugu-
rated by the children's bureau of the
department Of labor. 1t is different
in that it goes out of the beaten tracks
of such Investigations. Instead of
going through the large cities 1t Will
cover the smaller towns, where the
mortality records are not kept SO
completely as in the larger cities.
Miss Julia C. Lathrop, chief of the
children's bureau, who has just re-
turned from a visit to the south, de-
clared that while the investigation
had been started she could not at
this time estimate when the data
would be complete or even approxi-
mately estimate how long it would
take to compile the data, leaving out
the amount Of time which will be
consumed in tabulating it and putting
it into shape where any sort of con-
clusions may be reached.
The work will be taken up and
completed in one city at a time.
This, of course, will require more
time than If it were started stimuli
taneously in various parts Of the
country, but under the circumstances
this latter course cannot be pursued.
The investigators win go to a town
and take the births for a given year.
Having .ascertained these the real
work will begin. For the probers
will seek to learn the conditions un-
der which the babies were reared and
whether they survived the first and
subsequent years of their young life.
Not only will the questions cover
the period Of the baby's early life,
but will take into consideration every
condition under which the child lived.
Whether it's parents were able to pro-
vide it with sufficient nourishment;
whether 1t attended school, and If it
did, how long; whether or not it was

WERE THEY BOTH JoKING7

This is one of the best stories at
the copitol: Before taking his seat
in the new congress, Representative
Fred A. Britten of Chicago paid a
visit to Panama, accompanied by Mrs.
Britten, a strikingly handsome young
woman and several other congress
men and their wives. President Por-
ras of Panama rendered an elaborate
farewell reception to the party. he
took Mrs. Britten's hand in both his,
and bowed very low.
"Oh5 you beautiful lady, you beau.
tiful lady, good-by," the president
said.
Cut it out. Mr.. President, or I'll
kick you on the shin" said Represent
ative Britten.
President Porras stepped back
aghast
"Oh, no, no, no; I was only Joking
he said earnestly, and Britten made
the same excuse.
TITS hard to say who was the most
embarrassed, President Porras, his
wife, Mrs. Britten or myself" says
the former Chicago alderman.

compelled to go to work, the size of
the pay envelope, the conditions un-
der which it worked. These and
great mass of other questions will
be sought to be answered.
When all this data is complete 1t
will be tabulated. The tabulations, it
is hoped, will show how those who
were compelled to work and live un-
der detrimental conditions compared
with those who we're born of healthy
parents, and had every advantage,
start in life.
One of the reasons, it is declared,
for not taking the investigation to
the larger cities was the lack of ap-
preparations. In view of this fact it
was pointed out that the large cities
have efficient means of keeping very
complete mortality records, and for
that reason the children's bureau
probe should be confined to the small
er localities.
The results of this investigation.
decided improvement in the infant
mortality of the country and will even
result in bringing about better condi-
tions under which children work.
Confined to the smaller localities, 1t
probably will be the first information
of this kind which has ever been
compiled In such a manner as to
show how the many children pull
through the trials and tribulations
through which some of them In their
young lives are compelled to pass.
OF course. the children's bureau in
the advisory capacity in which 1t acts
cannot compel any change in condi-
tions which 1t may be shown are
needed. But 1t can make the investi-
cations and it can publish its find
tngs. Then either congress, the state
legislatures or what is perhaps strong
er, 1t may move public sentiment,
which in turn will start other machin-
cry going and that will undoubtedly
result in working the reforms which
are needed.
But when the tell-tale figures are
laid down In black and white showing
whether the child who has been born
and lived under model conditions has
a great and material advantage over
him who is born and is reared under
adversely. It is undoubted by those
who have the welfare of the little
ones at hand that any reforms which
may be shown to be needed will be
brought about.

TUMULTY GETS GLORY.

Masculine America should look with
awe and admiration today upon Jo-
seph Tumulty, secretary to. the presi-
dent, who, rising to the occasion,
fired his cook and lives to tell about
it.
1t is an easy matter to bluff office
seekers. to be an assistant president
and to know more than an encyclope-
dia. but to tell the queen of the
kitchen that her reign. is over is a
different matter.
There were no scars noted on Sec
retary Tumulty, though 1t must be
confessed he had a rather relieved
well satisfied air as he went about
his White House duties.
