Saturday work all night, until
nine o'clock in the morning"
That is the one inconvenience
that the world gives a shoemaker.
Everybody wants their shoes trim
and bright for Sunday.
For one reason, young Stepan
would rather work in Latin coun-
tries, especially among the French
and Spanish, where people from all
classes have shoes made to order.
There shoemaking has all the dig
nifty of a creative art. After he
has spent many years learning the
craft, people recognize him as a
designer and a craftsman, and pay
him accordingly, as much as ten or
twelve dollars a pair. Peasants
come to him for great tough
boots, hand-sewn with thick leather
thongs, that last not only lifetime,
but seven unto the third and fourth
generation. And in the cities
actresses and dancers and neladies
give him orders for thin, plant,
lustrous dancing shoes.
"But wherever | go | get work."
he says. Everywhere there are
shoes to be mended. am in good
fortune because people like me. One
lady asked me why | am always
smiling, and l told her. You see,
when was born my mother smiled.
Ever since | have been smiling"
Evening star., 1915-11-14
He Travels with an AWl

"nE a shoemaker and see the
ID world" is the sound advice
of Harold Stepan of New
York City. He is a Spaniard, only
twenty-one years old. For five
years he has accomplished two very
difficult and incompatible things
self-support and an extensive ex-
ploration of the Western Hemi-
sphere, "from Greenland to An
tigua almost. He is one of those
rare persons who indulge their wan
derlust without becoming derelicts.
He is always producer-the direct
descendant of a long and dignifed
line of journeyman cobblers.
"lf you want to be foot-loose, he
says, with a soft accent and radiant
white smile, "be a shoemaker.
"As soon as | get my second
citizen papers, | go. It's too hot
on land these days."
The Pleasantest Trade
SHOEMAkING, he thinks, is the
- most profitable and pleasant
trade there is. Even in New York,
where people don't have shoes
made to order, where repairing is
the only demand made upon his
skill, his average earnings are SIS a
day. And Saturdays-he made a
graceful foreign gesture.

"True Blue" Reunion

On Saturday, October 10, the "lrne
Blue class from Jackson Union Sun
Gay school held its annual reunion at
the home of the teacher, Miss hlmble,
at Appleton. Thirteen True Blues
and two visitors were in attendance.
With the exception Of the assistant
secretary, who has moved to Winning
ton, Del, all the officers elected last
year were there. The class president,
Miss Emily a. Scott. called the meet
ing to order. Miss Mary Brown, class
secretary then read the minutes of
last years reunion. After singing the
class hymn, "How Firm Founda-
ton, the Scripture lesson (Philip-
plans ". 49, was read This was
followed by prayer. The class aim
is: personal honor, loyalty to each
other and to God" The class then
sang "Sweeter as the Years go by"
The secretary's report showed that
Miss Clara Couden. Miss Mary Brown
have the highest records for attend
ance since last years reunion, October
il. 1914. During November, January,
February, March, May and June the
class made aprons, dust caps AMI
other fancy articles. Many of these
were sold at the "True Blue" lawn

have YOU WEAK LUNGS?

Do is settle on your chest or in your
bronc lal tubes? Do coughs hang on, or
are yCI subject to throat troubles?
Such troubles should have immediate
treatment with the strengthening powers
of Scott's Emulsion to guard against
consumption which SO easily follows.
Scott's Emulsion contains pure cod liver
oil which peculiarly strengthens the res
piratory tract and improves the quality of

the bureau report upon only II of
those SO cases.
No Change In Law Needed.
No particular change in the law is
required to place the bureau upon an
efficient basis. What is needed is that
the chief and the deputy chief of the
department be free to select men and
women because of their fitness, and
not to have them named by the Gov
ernor of the State because of personal
or political considerations. If the de-
partmcnts heads were free to name
their assistants, the responsibility
would be fixed definitely.
The chief of the bureau is Frank A.
White, of Talbot county, who is paid
50, 500 a year. The deputy chief is
is paid 81 500. She has had many
years experience in her work. In ad-
dition to the inspectors under their
charge. who have been named, Mr..
White and Miss Herkner have. under
the factory inspection appropriation,
one stenographer, who is paid 5000,
and another stenographer, under the
child labor appropriation, who is paid
S720.
The Ten-Hour Law Bureau, which
is charged with the enforcement of
the Women's Ten-Hour law, is separ-
ate from the State Bureau of Statis-
tics and Information. 1t should be a
part of it, for the work is closely al
lied and. if combined upon a proper
basis. could be done more cheaply.
This bureau has an appropriation of
$4,000 and is in the charge of Miss
Sarah F. Martin. who is paid 81 1900
year. She has two inspectors, who are
paid 5000 each. and a stenographer,
who is paid 5000. The bureau. of
course, has charges for rent, printing,
postage, etc.
Big Saving Could Be Made.
If it were combined properly with
the main bureau the work of the in
spectors of both bureaus could be CO.
ordinated, rent could be saved and
some of the overhead charges. In
suggesting the combination there is no
intention to reflect upon the work of
Miss Martin and her subordirates.
The information at hand indicates
that it is being done well. The point
made is that the work could be CO.
ordinated with that of the Industrial
Bureau and thereby handled as eff
cientlv and more cheaply.
1t will be remembered that there
are two inspectors under the factory
inspection appropriation. seven under
the child labor appropriation and two
under the ten-hour appropriation, or
eleven in all. If the work of these in
spectors were co-ordinated it would be
possible to make many of the inspec-
tions by the same Inspector.
1t often happens that an inspection
of a given factory must be made for
all three purposes. Assuming that all
of the inspectors were trained for the
work. one can appreciate the tremen-
dous increase ir the thoroughness and
efficiency of the work that would be
possible with the present number of
inspectors if there We're nroner CO.
