Jacob H. Schif, testifying before the United
States Commission on Industrial Relations, said
al suggest a permanent Federal employment
agency. l do not think employment agencies
honestly conducted can be successful except those
supplying domestic help, unless the United States
runs them. There is too much congestion-a
superabundance of unemployed labor-in this city
and along the whole Atlantic Coast. This should
be prevented. There should be some one to point
out where workers needed. There is ALWAYS
in this country some place where laborcrs are
van; d." 1t was announced some days ago that
the Federal employment bureau urged by Presi-
dent Wilson in his Indianapolis speech-though
the Progressives claim the idea originated with
them-is already in process of organization. 1t
suggests really practical way of dealing with the
problem OF unemployment Its possibilities for
good, appear limitless There should not be a
days delay in putting the bureau in operation.

looked through the years and saw himself with
the prizes of life in his grasp force for good in
the community, honored and happy.
Another voice spoke, subtle and alur-
ing: You have all those prizes and you can
have the diversions, too"
The man smiled A knowing look appeared in
his face. Life was going to be interesting.
A dozen years later the man stood in the high
way of life. He looked ahead. Those prizes were
still in sight; but they seemed to be far away
as they had been before
That voice spoke. quiet and clear: "See the
man you still be-"
The man shivered. He did not dare look

The other voice spoke even more subtle and
alluring than it had been before: Think of the
joys that have been yours. Would you give them
up? There are other joys waiting for you, just
as great. And the prizes are still there Already
you have had good share of success among men,"
The man looked away and laughed. Life was
good He would go on as he had been doing.
Why should he not take pleasure as it came?
Again the man stood in the highway of life.
Youth was gone now He was in the middle
years. On his face and figure he had left the mark
of what he had done and what he had felt and what
he had thought 1t was as if he had written to
the world message Of what he had become His
figure was heavy. His face was sad There was
dullness in his eyes.
Quiet and clear came the voice: "See the man

The man tried to look away But, in spite of
himself, he saw man OF his own height and of

He looked for the prizes They were no longer

"Nevcr mind" said that other voice, wonder

You and l belong to each other. Come and
will make you happy"
The man resisted. "You have destroyed me-"
he cried. you made me sell myself to you. Where
arc those prizes you promised me?"
The voice broke into mocking laugh. "Some
one else must have captured them while you were
carousing"
The man became reproachful. But the more
he talked, the more that voice Knocked
you can't frighten me, my friend. l taught you
to speak in that way myself. Why make yourself
miserable when you can forget all about this
little disappointment"
At the end of life, as the lay, besotted, he
heard that quiet voice. "See the man you might
have been"
Distinctly he saw himself old now, with gray
hair and with smooth brow, and with face
serene after the storms of life, surrounded with
his wife, old like himself and his children and the
children's children, honored beloved, happy

FLYNN WAS KNOCKED OUT
Throwing Up Sponge Equiva
lent to Being Counted Out.

A number Of boxing enthusiasts who
had some financial interest in che
Flynn-C oiTey battle have asked whether
or not Flynn was knocked OUT. Techni-
cally he was. Tie term "krockout' is
q contraction Of "knocked out Of time"
In the early days OF boxing knock
down terminated a round. and the
fighters sought their corners. II one
or the other was unable % resume the
battle al the expiration Of one minutes
rest he was declared knocked out. The
same rule held good If fighters sec
onds threw up the sponge 10 save their
man from punishment he was regard
ed as knocked out Of time. So II was
with Flynn, and In accordance with
the strict Interpretation OF the rules
he was knocked out.
The fans are wondering yet whether
Mike Gibbons got Of. on the wrong foot

or whether Mcketrick's man is better

there were who believed that Bartteld

the winner by slight margin, but gave

showing he made. Il might have been
