When the Workers Quit.

To the number of men under arms
add those engaged in making war mu-
nitions except food and clothing
though a great deal of war clothing is
wasteful in that it IL used up far fast
er than If the wearers were in a civil
occupation.
Economically considered, all these
men are idle. for they are producing
no wealth. For Great Britain their
number has been calculated at some
thing like half the total working popu-
lation. The proportion is probably
about the same for the other belliger-
ents. except Russia, where 1t is some
what lower.
painfully employed population of the
United States struck work, sat down
and twtddled their thumbs for two or
three years, being supported in idle
ness by the government during that
period. Suppose there was some de-
%struction of real property by blowing
up bridges, throwing explosives into
factories. burning villages. Suppose
there raj q very high casualty and
mortality rate among the idlers. Our
economic position would then be about
like Europe's. The government would
be borrowing immense sums to sup
port its millions of pensioners, and our
problem would be to Offset the drain
as much as possible by levying on
labor that is not normally employed
productively-the surplus labor Of
women, children, the aged and the halt
and by economizing in all possible
ways.-Saturday Evening Post.

Hog May Not Trespass.

Chief Justice Ailshie of the supreme
court Of Idaho makes the following
comment in Fall Creek Sheep com
pany VS.. Walton on the effect OF a
statute relating to trespassing hogs:
The man who drew the amendment
made swine an exception in the laws
of Idaho from all other kinds OF tres.
passing animals. So now when that
cloyen-footed q~uadruped OF ancient no.
toriety goes foraging beyond the pro.
tecting care of the swineherd he at
once loses his character as a domestic
animal and becomes ferae naturae
subject to capture by anyone on whose
premises he may at any indiscreet mo.
ment find himself, or course the hog
doesn't care much about his char.
anter; he would ordinarily Just as soon
be treated as a wild animal as to be
treated as If he had been domesti.
Gated for centuries. His fate is gen
orally about the same either way"

WOMAN'S HIGH PLACE
1T 10 HERS BECAUSE sHE CAN
KEEP A SECRET.
Mise Margaret NJ. Hanna Is One Of
the Most Trusted Employees 10
Office Of the Department
Of State.

There is only n woman in the
Emitted States who has knowledge OF
international events before they hap
pen. Her name is Margaret M. Hanna.
She is the confidential secretary and
assistant of the second assistant secre-
tary Of state, Alvey A Adee, who Is
the only permanent official Of high
rank in the department.
No matter who may be the executive
head of the department, and regard
less of whether the administration is
Democratic or Republican, the course
of the foreign office is steered by Mr..
Adee. All OF the diplomatic affairs
are managed by him. The complex
unwritten code called international
law is to him familiar in its every par
aRraph, and he has all precedents at
bis fingers ends.
But It goes without saying that such
business involves an immense amount
Of detail. Which is where the peculiar
and exceptional talent of Miss Hanna
comes into play. She takes all that
part Of the work off Mr.. Adee's hands.
To him she is like a card catalogue to
a librarian-and quite q bit more, in
addition.
Not until the present generation,
strange to say, was it discovered that
women are the great systematizers Of
detail. Even the cleverest men are not
in the same class with them at that
sort of thing. Hence the fact that
nowadays many captains of industry
prefer to employ as their confidential
secretaries ome who, with special
capability in this line, know how to
relieve them of all bother about the
petty machinery of their office bust
ness. Thus they are at liberty to de-
vote their entire attention to affairs Of
major Importance.
Such is the function that Miss Han
ma performs for the second assistant
secretary of state. Incidentally to her
duties she helps to prepare many state
papers that are in the last degree con-
idential in character. She is the custo-
dian Of many an important secret af-
fecting the welfare of the country;
but, from her point Of view, this is
merely a part of the days work. She
forgets the secret automatically when
she leaves the Office and goes home.
1t has often been said that a woman
cannot keep a secret. Perhaps most
women cannot. Holding that belief,
wrongly or rightly, the department Of
state prefers not to employ them in
confidential capacities. Too much is
often at stake to make the taking Of
any risks advisable. But the rule ia
broken in Miss Hanna's case. She
knows how to keep a secret, and The
government of the United States is
willing to bank on her reliability in
this regard.
