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 is used up far fast
err 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 it is some
what lower.
Suppose something like half the
gainfully employed population of the
United States struck work. sat down
and twiddled 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 was very high casualty and
mortality rate among the idlers. Our
economic position would then be about
like Europes. 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.

WOMAN'S HIGH PLACE
IT Is HERS BECAUSE SHE CAN
KEEP A SECRET.
Miss Margaret M. Hanna Is One Of
the Most Trusted Employees in
Office Of the Department
of State.

There Is only one woman in the
United States who has knowledge or
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
agraph, and he has all presidents at
his fingers ends.
But 1t 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 card catalogue to
librarian-and quite 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 women 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-
fidential 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 part of the days work. She
forgets the secret automatically when
she leaves the Office and goes home.
1t has often been said that 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 is
broken in Miss Hanna's case. She
knows how to keep secret. and the
government of the United States is
willing to bank on her reliability in
this regard. azl.s

Resourceful Winter Moth,

England's winter moth is one OF the
greatest pests with which the fruit
growers of that country have to con-
tend. II begins to appear in October,
and the female, whose wings are very
short and quite upadapted to fight.
climbs the trunks Of the fruit trees
and deposits her eggs. These hatch
out in the spring. and the caterpillars
soon devour the young leaves. Here
tofore II has been comparatively easy
to combat the ravages, of the pest.
Seeing that the female is unable to
fly. fruit growers place bands OF a
sticky substance round each tree. The
female, in climbing the trunk. comes
to the band, and is held fast
But wonderful thing has happened.
says the Manchester (England) Guar
dian. In recent years the female moth
has been found from time to time
above the band. and how she got there
was mystery. Finally, however, an
chronological expert unveiled 1t. He
saw the male and female moths to-
gether above the band on the tree
the male evidently having just depos-
tied the female.
There appears to be little doubt.
adds the Guardian. that in this we
have remarkable adaptation to cir
cumstances. The female cannot fly,
but the male can, and it would seem
that he had flown to the higher part
of the tree, carrying his wife upor his
back. This is one of the most strik-
ing discoveries in natural history. a~d
