LABOR WAGES ApvANclNa.

There was steady increase In the
scale of wages paid to labor In this
country In the past six years and this
was accomplished in the face of a
steady reduction in the working hours
of labor. Statistics issued last week
by the department of labor indicate
that labor now Is receiving more re-
muneration for fewer hours OF toll
than ever before. The figures are
based on comparisons of union wage
scale agreements, trade ualon reports
and working compacts In central cities
throughout the United States from
1907 to 1912 The inquiry was an
elaborate one and the result Is the
most comprehensive document of its
kind yet issued by the government. 1t
was prosecuted by segregating the
trades under the general divisions OF
baking trades. building trades, marble
and stone trades and printing trades.

DUTY OF THE SCHOOLS.

Dean Walter P. Sumner OF the
cathedral of Saints Peter ana Paul
in Rock Island said some very pun
gent things to the members Of the
women's club in that city at its meet
Ing last Saturday afternoon. There
were two matters OF especial interest
to which he referred in his address.
One related to the boys and the other
to the girls.
Speaking on the wage question for
girls Dean Sumner said that it is
wrong to force the employers OF girls
to pay more wages than they earn.
The thing for society to do is to SO
train the girls that they will earn
more for their employers then insist
on the pay. This duty. he stated, de-
volyed upon the public schools, and
he asked what the schools of that
city were doing. The Union takes
upon itself to make answer. IT says:
The schools of this city are prop
ably in advance of those OF the aver
age city OF The country Of like popu-
lation. They are just starting IN the
vocational work. So far the board o.
education has mad little encourage
ment from the parents OF the pupils
1 II has built fine building, one floor
of which is practically turned over
to the girls for vocational work When,
at last commencement time, this
building was dedicated to the sacred
work it was planned TO GO, there was
hardly corporal's guard Of the moth-
ers and fathers of Rock Island there
to witness the exercises 1t is doubt

THE CALL OF THE WOODS.
Once more the Autumn in her robes
of gold
Comes Ger the hills In festival at
tire;
Dead is the rose-but look the for
ests hold
A newer beauty for the hearts de-
sire,
Now are the days OF gorgeous color
ings;
The Master Painter touched the
world last night,
And every hour some added glory
brings,
Till all the scenes q ravishing de-
light,
The scarlet vines along the hedge
rows creep;
Tho sumac bushes turn to fiery red;
The far-off hills their misty silence
keep,
And like dreams the blue sky
Overhead.
There are the fields SO lately har-
vested,
And lanes hemmed in with plumed
golden rod;
And look! The woods. to every color
wed,

Enthroned beauty stamped on every
