Less Time, More Work.

A very large printing plant doing
practically every line of printing, de.
cided several years ago to change from
a ten-hour day to one of eight hours.
AS competition in most Of their work
was very keen, the change could not
be made unless costs could at least
be kept from increasing The situation
was studied for many months, and as
leaks and wastes were found meas,
ures to stop them were put in effect.
problems Of power, light, heat, humid
ity handling of materials, etc, were
studied and conditions improved. Ade-
Quate methods of planning and dis
patching the work were installed, with
the result that delivery dates were
met and idleness in the plant reduced
to minimum. Finally the eight hour
day was inaugurated amid great re-
joicing on the part Of the employees
In fact the good feeling ergendered
was so deep rooted that it is still very
much alive in the plant The com
pany also has every reason to re-
joice, as costs were materially re-
iuced and profits were increased.
This is shown by the fact that the
stock has greatly increased in price
due to the higher dividends paid

Salome Active.

The activity in the Salome dis
trict continues to increas, accord
ing to a dispatch of recent date,
Notwithstanding it being the
summer season, when many peo-
pie shun the desert through a
fancy that the heat will interfere
with work. There is twice as
much development work going
on around there now as there
was in the middle of the winter
last year, when things are gen
orally at their liveliest. Now
properties are being started up
and many new mining men and
investors, prOSpectors and others
are coming in there, attracted by
the shipping ores at the grass
roots and the high grade possibil-
tiles of the district.

Masking the Guns.

Against aircraft observation one of
the first precautions taken is to splash
guns, limbers, and ammunition wag-
ons with different neutral tints, so that
they will blend with the ground about
them. Any earthworks, pits, ETC., that
are erected or dug are strewn with
leaves and branches, and the earth dis
turbed generally, so that from above
nothing unusual shall be spotted by
keen-eyed airmen.
A battery of guns is seldom placed
along the skyline, for there it is an
easy mark. Generally the guns are
concealed some distance down the in
cline in front of the skyline unless the
guns are howitzers, in which case they
can be best served from behind the
ridge. The idea of placing the guns
In front of the ridge is that the rising
ground behind them serves as an eff
fective screen, as the guns themselves
are painted to represent earth and TO-
liage.

Rabies i'm Nevada.

Rabies seems to be prevalent
among the coyotes up in Nevada
and fears are entertained lest the
scourge should spread to this
state and cause the loss of much
livestock. Apropos of this the
Goldfield Tribune says:
Three rabid coyotes recently
raided the Dugan ranch at Hot
creek. They bit all the animals
they could reach and attacked
children who were playing some
distance from the house. The
children ran and escaped into
the house. The coyotes followed
and attempted to get in through
the screen door. One of the an
imals was shot, and it's jaws
were found to be covered with
foam and blood"
The disease, which made it's
appearance in Wallowa county,
Oregon, five years ago, has
spread south through Nevada
and California, and is now threat
ening the southwestern states.
1t has caused millions of dollars
worth of damage to stock in the
territory over which it has
spread.

A railroad into Blythe is no longer
a dream. 1t is a fact
When last Tuesday morning at
9:2S O'Clock, the work train of the
California Southern railroad, follow
ing close ON the heels of the construc

incorporate limits and entered the
City OF Blythe the hope that has for
years spurred the pioneers of this
valley to investment and develop
ment, became reality.
AT noon on Tuesday the construc-
tion crew had reached the new gin
and when the Mexican and negro
worhmen stopped for lunch there was
a huge pile of watermelons and
generous supply of ice cream and
cake which had been provided by
the citizens of Blythe by way of
greetings to the men who have been
laboring ON the road
While the railroad is now In BLY,

of finishing details to be completed.
There will be switches to build,
station to erect and yards to in
stall. But these are minor consider
ations and their working out will
not interfere with the operation of
the trains between Blythe and the

President Tyler Married in Office.

I suppose the story of President Ty-
ler's wedding seventy-five
years old-will have been resurrected
by now.
The ceremony took the public a bit
by surprise. The president was a
widCwer of about a year and half's
duration, and he was much older than
his bride, who was Miss Julia Gardi-
ner Of New York. The wedding took
place in the Church of the Ascension
on Fifth avenue, New York, and a
small reception followed at the home
of the brides family in Lafayette
place. 1t was June wedding and il
concluded with pageant; the presi-
dent and his bride made tour of the
harbor, where many of the war vessels
were anchored Vogue.

And because our forefathers were a

bitter than il is, thank God, now,

Immortality.

IL Is n thing to be thankful for that
twentieth century thinking and twen-
tieth century science are confirming,
cumulatively, the dictum Of Christian
authority that the soul Of man Is i'm
mortal. To assert nowadays that the
universe Is the outcome of chance Is
to array oneself against the worlds
best thought. To affirm that the uni
verse is reasonable means, In the last
analysis, that the world acts as 1t
might be expected TO act had It been
thought through by mind."-George
Wharton Pepper.
