VOLUNTARY OR COMPULSORY
ARBITRATION

The State Board OF Trade at recent
nesengs. has had before II several
plans for the concilistion OF labor
disputes. A bill based upon the
Canadian law has been prepared by
Mr.. 9. Burgess Taylor. Hon. w. p.
Hubbard Of Wheeling. who has also
given the matter much consideration,
on occasion OF the meeting OF the
State Board OF Trade IN wheelinx,
vigorously criticised Mr.. Taylor's pro-
posed plan. At the meeting In Park.
ersourg few days ago. Hon. Taylor
Vinson OF Huntington. read a very
able paper. taking substantially the
same position as Mr.. Hubbard.
Tho practical dificuity involved in
any plan OF Cancellation or arbitration
OF labor disputes. is the unwillingness
OF both parties In such disputes 10
agree on any compulsory action by
the State. Employers and employees
are alike indisposed to arbitration,
except under conditions that their
judgments approve OF. The State
Federation OF Labor OF West Virginia
has gone on record against compul.
sorry arbitration or Cancellation. The
majority of the employers OF labor
have taken the same position.
While the rights OF the public are
not TO be lost sight OF. il must also
be remembered that the parties al.
rectly engaged in labor dispute
have rights. The State has no power
10 compel men to invest their money
In industries. whose MANAGEMENT in
essential features can be taken from
their hands by outside authority.
The State has no power to compel
working men to continue TO work IN.
der conditions OF which their judg.
ment disapprove The exercise OF
such powers on the part of the State
would mean the introduction OF com.
munistic conditions. which certainly
the people Of West Virginia are not
yet prepared for. The State may
well provide some Board OF ConciI.
iation to which parties in labor dis.
putes may voluntarily appeal IN
search OF a peaceful settlement Be.
yond the sphere OF voluntary acquies.
cenee. however. on the part OF both
employer and employee. the state
cannot go.

Menace of Dinktheria.

Kansas is facing real danger of cpl
demic Of diphtheria when the schools
open this fall, according to DIR. J. ].
Sippy, state epidemiologist with the
state board of health 1t has been years
since there were so many cases of diph-
iberia reported to the boa I'd in the sum-
mer time, when generally there are few
cases Of the disease. 1t is in winter
when the schools are in session, and the
childen carry the germs that diphtheria
generally is most common and most
feared. 1--WE are asking all the county
health officers, physicians, teachers to
take every possible precaution against
allowing any child with symptoms of
sore throat even to attend school, said
DR. Sippy yesterday. There is little else
that we can do. The law does not per-
nit the examination of pupils before
they start to school. On account of
the mild form in which the disese is pre-
valent this summer, few cases have
been isolated. In fact many of them
have been diagnosed as follcular tonsil-
tits" There has not been a severe
epidemic of diphtheria anywhere in the
state reported this summer, Dr. Sippy
says, but these mild forms of the dis
ease and tonsilitis seems to be common
ali over the state.

The Trouble With the World.

The great trouble with two thirds of
the world, they never prepare to act
their part. There are boys driving de-
livery wagons who should be molding in
to business men, There are girls behind
the counters who should be home
makres.
There are preachers in sleepy church
es who should be carrying the hod.
There are teachers who do not read
enough school journals to inspire mum
nay There are surgeons amputating
limbs who ought to be saving soup
bones Artists making pictures WIG
ought to be painting barns. There
are farmers who missed there calling
Mothers who should have been SPINS
ters. Housewives who are culinary as
sassins. There are knockers who were
born with useful instincts reversed.
and so We might go on through all the
eallings in Hfe.-Ex.

What Youm Eat Before You Die

If you are of average weight, height
and appetite and live to be Y you will
have eaten fifty-four tons of solid food
and fifty-three tons of liquid. That is
about 1900 times your weight.
If you were to stack the bread you
will have consumed in this number of
years the pile would equal fair sized
building. The amount of butter you
will have used on this bread would
come to ton and quarter. If you
are lover of bacon and were to
stretch that which you have eaten out
II single slices four miles would be the
lenght. Five tons OF fish and 10000 egg s
stand to your credit, while the normal
cheese eater would easily have consum-
Ell 400 pounds.
The vegetables you will have eaten
would I'LL train three miles long.
You will have consumed some 10, 900
pounds of sugar and 1,5O0 pounds of
salt. If you are a smoker you will
have used about half ton of tobacco
in pipes and will have smoked ], 900, 200
cigarettes

Normal Notes and { Comments

During the last week Registrar A. F.
Bieker of the Fort Hays Normal has
received requests from 488 people ask
ing for catalogues and making inquiries
concerning the school.
Judging from the number of inquiries
received during the vacation period,
Registrar Bieker believes that the en-
rOllment at the Fort Hays Normal on
Tuesday, September IA, will by be far
the largest in the history of tie institu-
ton.
The increase in the student body of
the Fort Hays Normal has BEEN rapid
in the last two years and it has tripled
within that time. In view of this heavy
increase the state board of admins
tration, Ed. T. Hackney, E. w. Hoch,
and Mrs. Cora G. Lewis, has increased
the faculty of the Fort Hays Normal
for next year by the appointment of
seven additional members who will be-
gin work this fall
The young men and women at the
Fort Hays Normal will enter two ora
torical contests this year After winr-
ing the Kansas Inter-normal contest at
Emporia last April and third place at
the Interstate contest in Wisconsin in
May the Fort Hays Oratorical Associa-
ton composed of students of the Normal
will also enter the Kansas Inter-colle-
giate Peace Association which holds an
oratorical contest at Topeka under the
auspices of the Worlds Peace Founda-
ticn.
The Kansas Inter collegiate Peace
Association is composed of ten Kansas
schools and the Fort Hays Normal will
make the eleventh. These schools are:
Baker University, Southwestern Col
lege, Paramount College, College of EN-
poria, Cooper College, Washburn Col
lege, Kansas Wesleyan, Ottawa Univer-
sity, Enporia Normal, State Agricultu-
raj College, and the Fort Hays Normal
The reason which Miss Kathryn
O'Laughlin, student and president OF
the Fort Hays Association, gives fol-
entering two contests, is that there are
so many students who have already sig
nihed their intention to compete that ii
will take two contests to give all ar
equal opportunity. She does not know
how many of the new students shall
compete, but the following old students
will contest for the oratorical honors:
Ralph Archie, Great Bend; A. C. Brun-
CART, Victoria; D.H.Leighton, Brownell
Burton M. Clark Hays; J. P. Callahan
Bouge; Roy E. Frey, Sylvan Grove
Lester Poland, Colby; E. H. Cummings
Grainfield; James Start, McCracken;
Fred W. Albertson, Hill City.

Happiness

On Talking Too Low

We Americans are of ;vsC k:r6s;
we either talk TOO loud or } low, par
ticuiarly IN public places A Eurorea-
fanily will sit down in public without
feeling the necessity of putting mute
or the voice and retiring as though
behind wall. They are not noisy or
gay, they do not toOt on tin horns, but
they say what they wish without low
erlng the tone to that painful depth
which we mistake for a cultivated
ncte. Let US be brave, and be our
selves; for nothing can be better than
that. Louise Closer Hale, in Cen

curtiss Brings Out New wsr.pIane.

A new Curtiss aeroplane, built es-
pecially for war purposes, and capable
of carrying three passengers, besides
the pilot, was tried out at Buffalo, n.
Y. recently and made most excellent
showing, easily breaking the American
records for Ginning with passengers,
apparently capable of great speed in
ordinary flying. With two passengers
an ascent OF 5000 feet was made in
twenty-seven minutes, and with three
passengers a considerably greater ele-
walton was reached, equally as fast.
In this second climb, with total live
load OF 800 pounds, a height of 8 300
was quickly attained, when the baro-
graph stopped recording. The ascent
continued another five minutes before
the descent began and those who OBJ
served the. fight are confident that,
with the same load, another ZOO feet
could be accomplished. The American
record for height, with two passengers
is 2,187 feet and the worlds record
with three passengers is held by an
Austrian avitor, who assembled Is, $50 ft
! last year. This new machine is of trac
! or type, with the passengers located in
q cockpit in front of the pilot, who sits
I behind the planes The engine develops
100 horse power. and the machine IS
+ capable of carrying load of 800 lbs.
dead weight. 1t is capable of flying at
great speed with full load, and 1t is be
.ieved that the requirement of climbing
rapidly from the ground with its load
+ has been satisfactorily met. Its control
appears to be very perfect for it is said
that IN these tests. the pilot flew at a
speed of "a miles an hour without touch
ing the wheel. Further altitude test
will be made as soon as Paragraph o
greater capacity is secured.-Scientific
