KNOW WORKMAN BY THE HAIR
Blends Arc Inventive, Brunettes Con-
ssrvatIve, Is Assertion OF an
Employment Chief.

DR.. Katherine M. Fl. Blackford,
who has charge of the employment
bureau in the NJ. Rumely company's
machine works at Laporte, Ind, gave
an address before the Efficiency So
ciety and the Scientific Selection
and Assignment of Men in the Gre
alton Of an Organization" She said
that one of the greatest causes of
waste in business concerns was Gig
norance of human aptitude and the
requirements of different kinds of
work"
'Blonds and brunettes do not
work in the same manner" she said.
Generally speaking, blends are
speculative and optimistic; usually
mild and good natured, often inven-
tive; they like to make plans for
some one else to work out. They in
cline to aggressive work, such as
craftsmanship, advertising and pro-
motion.
"Brunettes incline to conservatism
rather than speculation; they are
often serious minded; sometimes in
clined to gloominess. They like to
work out and perfect the plans which
some other mind has made"

BOMBS FROM THE SKY.

Such marked improvement has
been made recently in the effective
ness Of bomb throwing from aero
planes that it is but short time be-
fore it will be possible for one of
these sky soldiers to drop a deadly
missile into the very vitals of a ship
through the tunnels. There is q de-
mand for some sort of shield which
will prevent this and at the same
time interfere in no way with the
passage of smoke and vapors from
the furnaces of the vessel. Several
attaches of the army and navy are
at work on the problem, which in
wolves more difficulties than appear
on the surface, and the attention of
inventors outside of these organiza-
tons has been invited with the hope
Of finding some simple means Of
meeting the demands.

RECALLS DAYS OF CHlvALRY
Remarkable Duel Fought Between
Champions One Of tho Happen
Inas In the Balkan War.

A correspondent of the Paris
Journal narrates striking story OF
the fighting near Tarabos. In the!
hospital at Rieka, he says, he saw a
young Turkish officer who had been
terribly hacked with saber cuts.
This man, who had command OF
an outpost before Tarabos, had rid
den forward on horseback in the face
Of the Montenegro bullets, and In
the manner of the knights of old had
challenged the bravest among the
enemy to meet him in single combat.
This took place in the evening, in
the light of the moon.
An old Montenegro, a veteran OF
many fights, accepted the challenge,
and the two battled together for a
long while, scrupulously observing
the laws of an honorable duel.
The Montenegro was wounded In
the shoulder only, but the Turk was
sabered in a frightful manner, and
though he resisted for long time,
half-blinded by his own blood, he
eventually fell. Thereupon his en-
envy bent over him, stanched his
wounds and called for assistance,
after which the injured Turk was
removed with all speed to hospital

1t is said here that both Germany

Many Of these emissaries, ii is said,

properly introduced, and carrying no
credentials from the President OF the
Cnited States or any other officials in

situation, in which two of the leading
nations of the world are sulkily refus-

Despite the fact that both countries
have given as the reason for their in
difference the expense of sending eX-

strongly reflects their resentment OF
the announced intention of the United
