The Boys Idea Of Efficiency.

Chicago Evening Post: Nobody has
quite such passion for labor saving
devices is the boy. He is the original
efficiency expert. Certain absurd
semi-reiigious notions as to the value
OF work which affIict grownups have
been Shared him. He will do any.
thing to save work.
In the latest instance which has fall
en- under our observation the boy was
pulling his Young Giant" express
wagon up fairly steep village grade.
The wagon was quite heavy one and
its axes needed greasing. 1t manifest
ly took. a great deal of effort to pull IT
up the cinder path from the main
street of the village.
But the boys face was wreathed In
smiles of satisfaction, and when boy
and wagon came near we understood
it. For in the fifty-ponnd wagon
which he was cheerfully pulling up
hill was a twelve-pound loaf of bread.
Is it any wonder that Mr.. Fontaine
Fox finds boys a fascinating subject?

The Old and the New.

Manchester Press: Last week,
while the new model 8 linotype was
being installed In the Press office, a
tramp printer sauntered IN, looking
for enough work to buy him dinner.
When he saw the machine he turned
around and walked right out. IT was
a picture of the old and the new.
Years ago, when all the type was set
by hand. tramp printers were az thick
as straw hats In the dog days The
country printer was almost sure of a
visit from one or two of the fraternity
every week They would come In,
work a couple of days, fill up on
booze and drift on, after mixing up all
the cases in the office and leaving pi
and grief in their wake The linotype
has put the tramp printer out of bust
ness. 1t has reared up class Of So
Der, Industrious and intelligent work
men, who take pride in their work
and can be relied upon six days a
week. The machine has not thrown
out OF work a single man who had am
hition and was devoted to the trade.
II has driven the shirk and the idler
and the vicious into the highways and
byways, however, and has cleaned up
the printing Offices of the country un-

power? Soldiers are summoned for
coercion purposes when workingmen
are fighting for their rights, and. IL
they can be used in that sense. l see
no reason why they could not re en-
|ployed in the protection OF the rights
|of free speech.
THE second reason given is that
the avowed policy of the Women's
Social and Political Union is to adyo-
cate the commission OF crime. AS
sumo that this is so; surely then the
remedy is to prosecute those guilty OF
giving the illegal advice. When Sir
Edward Carson and Bonar Law were
giving Illegal advice to the people of
the ncrth of ireland, no consequences
followed. the reason probably being
that, should results follow, the law
then would take its usual course and
punish. not only those guilty Of break
Ing the law by violence. but those
guilty OF giving the advice. Why
shouldn't the same policy be followed
lin this instance?
THE right of public meeting in this
country has been won and maintained
by very great task and sacrifice. This
order clearly interferes with this
right. The result can only be that it
will bring large numbers of people to
the side of the womens movement
who have been opposed to their tao
tics, with the further danger of forcing
the snffragettes to engage in under
lground methods.
The home secretary will be beaten
in this matter, just as he has been In
every tussle he has had with the
militant women. Fcrcible feeding has
admittedly broken down; and this new
method Of applying coercion, and at
the same time interfering with we'll
established right, is just as certainly
bound to fail. =
