THE PROBLEM OF

New York after a. series of interesting
sessions i'm which the problem Of the
jobless man was[discussed from many
angles. %%,$s@ - ii" @'"as ..*& r.,
The recognition of unemployment as
a social i'll, susceptible to treatment, is
an important step toward action that
may bring improved conditions. The
chief difficulty met in its consideration
is the great lack of information neces-
sary to arrive at the. exact nature and
extent of the problem and the best
means for its solution,
1t is generally conceded by students
of industrial questions that ~unemploy-
ment is a constant problem, Prof.
Scott Nearing says: IN a. normal
year one man in every two will be I'M
employed and the unemployment will
average sixty days, or one-tifth of the
working time. In a normal year the
average wage-earners under $3.50 has
one chance in two Of losing one-ffth

PERFECTLY LOVELY"
SPRING PREDICTED

Devils Lake, n. D., March 24.-The
farmers of the Red river valley can
look for a perfectly lady-like spring
breakup, according to Martin Hovde,
United States weather observer, who
received his first spring reports from
local river observers along the water
way between Wahpeton and the Cam
adam boundary. BY a Encouragement
of territory the Devils Lake weather
bureau is made the clearing house for
weekly telegraphic reports. At the
present time there is no snow on tho
watershed. An interesting feature Of
the information fled is the fact that
at WahDetOn the ice is only nineteen
inches thick while at Moorhead and at
points further north the covering of
the water has attained a thickness Of
thirty inches. Spring rains will Of
course have a great deal to do with
the character Of the breakup. but un-

JUDGE FISK HAS CASE

Devils Lake, N. D., March "a
Judge Frank Fisk Of Williston took
under advisement the case Of the state
Of North Dakota, ex rel. John Bloom,
against the county commissioners,
Auditor Kramer and Treasurer Duell

they should not be ordered to adver-

Of the class Of patronage which has

invitation of Judge G. w. Buttz who

AS soon as the business men get
located satisfactorily the campaign to
have the county seat removed from
Manning to Dunn Center will be
~inaugurated. This is expected to en-
tail a bitter fight. but the demand for
he county seat on the railroad, where
the farmers must haul their stuff to
market Is insistcnt and will be the
great factor in securing a removal.

Stanton, thirty-nve miles north of

heard. No doubt it was substantially
true. To continue to believe it now,
however, is to betray ones ignorance
of the industrial conditions that sur
round u.s.
The Importance of this ever-present
problem becomes clear when we on
slider the ills that flow from 1t. Idle
ness breeds suffering, poverty and
crime, involving a heavy burden upon
society, that, for it's own protection,
If not for reasons more humane, must
care for the dependent.
The individual causes of unemploy-
ment are mainly sickness, accident and
inefficiency; the industrial causes are
business depression. labor troubles,
seasonal trades, lack Of stock and
trades.
But even the individual causes, so
called, are largely social, resulting in
many instances from conditions over
which the individual has little or no
control.
OF course, the remedy lies in the re-
moval of the causes, but that involves
a vast amount Of fundamental work
on which we have barely made a be-
ginning as yet. In the meantime we
must do what can be lone by way Of
mitigation, and to this end the confer
ence by resolution urged upon the fed
eral department Of labor the import

more definite information may be
made available as to the extent Of I'M
employment, it's causes in specific To-
~calities and at specific seasons and its
significance as a factor in the general
social and industrial problem, and,
further. the creation of a bureau of
distribution, with power to establish
employment exchanges, supplemental
and city bureaus, where such exist,
and to direct the distribution of I'M
employed labor throughout the coun-
try.
A plan similar to this obtains in
Germany. The system would at least

Court Stopped a White Slave Reel

Court Stopped a White Slave Reel
New York Tribune: The Inside of
the White Slave Traffic, a moving
picture, was adjudged an illegal exhi-
bition recently by q jury in Judge
Swann's part Of general sessions. The
approval expressed ONE time ago by
Mrs. W. X. Vanderbilt and Mrs. o. H.
P. Belmont had no effect.
After thirty-five minutes delibera-
ton the jury found Samuel H. London,
author Of the scenario, and Harry G.
Bohn, manager Of the Park theatre,
where it was produced, guilty of a
mlsdemeanor. The jury recommended
clemency, and at the suggestion of

attorney, Judge Swami paroled the de-

your verdict" said Judge Swami to
the jurors. sit seems to me that the
world Is sex mad, and such plays as
this result. A verdict Of not guilty
would have been taken as a certificate
OF good character and the reels would
have been exhibited broadcast"
In his charge Judge Swami said:
Mr.. London's character is not an
issue. It is the character of the reels
and nothing else that is in question.
His intent does not enter into the case.
The test of criminality Is whether the
exhibition tends to deprave and cor

immoral influences. If the exhibition
is calculated to have this effect, the
motive Of the exhibitor is imma-erial.
This action is really very much in the
nature Of a trial of the reels"
The defendants were on trial, not as
reformers, but as showmen, MI. Hay

clared. He told the jurors that they
stood in the place Of every father in
the land. and they should consider we'll

BUSINESS SECRECY,
No One in a Big Establishment
Knows All Of It's E9epartnoer+s.

Worlds Work: Men who have be-
fore known all the facts Of an entire
business now know only a few facts
concerning q small part Of the whole.
Operating men now know little about
costs. Purchases are known only to
purchasing agents. Costs, in fact, are
now largely made up of overhead and
indirect expense, Of depreciation and
maintenance.
Even in the cost department no man
knows more than the cost of a por-
ton Of the operation. The final as
senbling Of costs is made only by a
confidential man, who is close to the
final executive. Statesmen know moth
ing Of costs or Of selling policies. They
know only that they can or, cannot

Of trade agreements, "gentlemen's

sales managers and executive officers
know nothing. Because Of the rail-
road the telegraph, and the telephone,

to earn money enough to support
these little children-she had to do
the dead fathers work and yet she
was their mother and she must give
them all the care that a mother gives
them.
This brave little woman did this
with no asking for sympathy or re-
lief She worked all day to earn their
bread and at night she mothered her
children, put them to bed, heard them
say their prayers, made and mended
their clothes, bound up their childish
hurts and kissed the spots to make
them well. She, my dear Mrs. Tenney,
had to do many things and she did
her duty outside her home in such
fashion that her employers valued
her work and she did her work in
side her home so well that her chill
dren did not miss a mothers care.
mo one seemed to think that this
woman was doing anything out OF
the ordinary, but in some way her
oldest child, a boy Of ten, appreciated
it, for when he came down to break
fast he always greeted her gravely:
Good morning, Father and she as
gravely replied: Good morning, son.
Then he said: Good morning, Moth
er, and she answered with kiss:
Good morning, my boy"
THAT is just the point I want to
make" said Mrs. Tenney, mo one
thinks that wonderful woman is do
ing anything extraordinary. They
are her children-she must care for
them. But if she had died and left
the children to the fathers care no
one would have thought for a mo-
ment that he could be to them a
mother and father, too"

give anything if had children" she

Mrs. Bill Tenney called on me yes
terday.
After admiring my house to an ex-
tent that satisfied even me, she re-
marked with a sigh:
Mrs. Waverly, you should be a
very happy woman"
81 think am perfectly happy" I
answered. 81 certainly enjoy my lit
tie home, although l find keeping
house more expensive than thought
l am just about choosing between a
new fall suit and a maid to help me
with the work this winter"
"A man would choose the maid"
said Mrs. Tenney,
How do you know that?" l asked.
We'll, in the first place, a man will
be comfortable whether his clothes
are the latest style or not. If most
men kept house they would have GER
tain things done for themselves just
as most men have their shoes black
ed or their faces shaved.
Men care more for comfort than
beauty for themselves and more for
beauty than for comfort for the wo-
man who must sit across the break
fast table from them day after day.
mo matter how ragged a man
gets, it seldoms enters his mind to
mend the rents, no matter how dirty
his shirt he seldom thinks he can
wash it.
Whatever else a woman does she
usually does all these little personal
things, not only for herself but for
others.
Men usually do one thing and do
it well without making life burden,
but we women try to do so many
things that we get the reputation of
doing everything in a slipshod fash
ion"

Mrs. Tenney?" asked, eff you are
