MUNITION WORKERS

NEW YORK. Sept. %. - Dangers
from accidents that menace the health
of munitions workers in the manu-
facture of high explosives were rec
ognized officially at the annual meet
ing OF the American Chemical society
here today, during discussion Of Occu
pational disease in the chemical
trades. It was shown that poisoning
from gases causes not only skin affec-
lions but leads 10 more serious all
ments, such as alteration in the blood
or acute degeneration Of the liver.
The number Of cases Of the fairly .seri-
GUS Industrial poisoning which have
occurred in this country since the out

AUTOMOBILE STOCKS.

One Of the financial craZes of the
period is investment in automobile
stocks. The more successful com
panies are making millions. Many
a small investor is tempted to draw
savings out of the bank, where they
are now earning an inglorious 4 per
cent, and take a filler"
But like the war munition bust
ness, it's case in which fools rush
in where angels fear to tread. The
hig dividends suggest that the price
Of motor cars has not yet reached
hardpan. II is the universal rule in
business that big profits can not con-
tinue indefinitely. Large gains stim-
ulate competition. The cream has
been taken off. Those who went in
early have grown fat. Those that
so in now may fare on skim milk.
There is rush of new concerns
into the business. II has been a
golden field Ambitious foremen and
superintendents are looking for cap
italists to finance their ideas. Capt.
talists are looking for chances to
invest. Many new companies will be
formed to struggle for the spoil.
Heretofore, car two or three
years old lacked some features of the
late machines that seemed absolutely
vital. Now the new cars seem about
perfect, II is hard to see how they
can be much behind the game even
in five years.
This should lead people having a
well-made car to hold on to it long
er. The extrayagance OF constant
trading off machines for the latest
models will become apparent. As
prices fall, people of moderate means
buy the machines. They purchase
with the purpose OF keeping their
cars for number of years. The
demand created by the incessant
rush for the latest models will fall
off.
With new consumption, less fire.
Quent changes Of cars, and closer
prices. it seems as II the business. as
far as profit goes. has passed the
high point OF success. Those who
buy motor stocks now should think
OF these tendencies.

Hanly's Ashland
Book Beautiful

]. Frank Hanly, ex-governor of
Indiana and the candidate of the
prohibition party for the presidency
of the United States, visited Ashland
and was converted into a worshiper
of Ashland, several years ago. The
impressions which he gathered and
the thoughts which a trip to Mount
Ashland awoke in him he has chron-
icled in a book, "A Day in the Sisk-
yous." which is a triumph of word
painting and artistic arrangement,
He introduces his story;
Ashland is a city beautiful, built
two thousand feet above the level OF
the sea
"A jewel set in the bosom of an
enchanted valley, surrounded by the
encircling peaks of the Siskiyous and
the projecting parapets of the Cas-
cades, in the midst of all but endless
summer, in sight of eternal SHOWS
"An aquarelle of contentment,
river bordered, mountain framed,
lighted by perennial sunshine
"A prodigal, lowered with un-
spendable portion-a perpetual. re-
curing heritage of flowers and fruits
and grains
"A siren, sentient with charm and
lure; held in the sensuous arms of
an amorlng, desire-fulfilling hills;
coaXed into forgetfulness by soft,
consoling winds, sweet and lingering
as the memory of a cradle lullaby,
and canopied by skies, chaste and
tender as a maidens soul.
Il knew her fewer than hundred
hours. But in that brief while she
broke down every barrier time had
set about my heart"
And so on through its fifty-four
pages of picture, poem and word
painting. A book which is in reality
a masterpiece of construction and
it seems "A sacrilege with thS book
before us-worth thousands to Ash
land as an advertisement.
The volume is nine inches by
twelve inches, bound in elegant ma
terial, embossed with gold and an
engraving OF Mount Mclaughlin
from Lake of the Woods. The story
deals entirely with a trip up through
Ashland canyon, sunset, evening,
night, sunrise and morning on Mount
Ashland, Every other page has an
appropriate quotation from the fam
Gus poets and thirty-eight full-page
color pictures of Ashland canyon and
scenes near Ashland contribute the
finesse TO volume which anyone
would be proud to own. The front
iSpiece is large panoramic colored
photograph of Ashland.
The volume is an artistic piece of
work, labor of love such as is sell
dom seen Ashland owes a great
debt to Mr.. Hanly.
The material for the book was
gathered on trip to Mount Ashland
taken with Homer Billings as his
companion when Mr. Hanly was here
on the ChautauQua platform several
years ago. The photographs are
duly credited TO a number OF Ash
land artists of the camera.
