USE CARE IN DRESS
TO PROTECT BABIES

Dress baby carefully during this
changeable weather"
This is the advice OF Miss Lillian
Mehin, city visiting nurse. Care
should be taken at all times neither
to dress babies too heavily or too
thinly.
They easily catch cold and this
often makes them dangerously sick.
Dress them to make them comfortable
and they will be in little danger Of
catching cold.''

General Fund Shrinking.


With practically all railroad taxes
in, the general fund of the state treas
ury continues to shrink. The balance
in the fund is $3,288,41161. On May l,
1915. the balance was $4,444, 1928. a
difference of $1,155. 900.72 over these
figures.
There are no incoming revenues of
the state that will make up this deficit.
In fact the fund will receive serious
setback when the authorizations from
the state highway commission start to
come in. The legislature passed bill
appropriating 100000 for highway
purposes. the money to come out of
the general fund. Most of this money
will be drawn from the state treasury
in September and October, for road
work done during the summer, al
though some of it has been spent al
ready.

for Technically Educated Men
Rapidly Growing.

MISUNDERSTANDING bridges, con-
structing railroads, retaining arid
land, working in gas, telephone. cleo
trio and water plants, busy in great
manufactures, in mines and on rail-
roads, LOO graduates of the college
of engineering of the University OF
Wisconsin are scattered all over the
United States and in many foreign
countries.
There is almost nc great engineering
project launched in the country or its
territories in which a Wisconsin engi-
neer is not engaged in some capacity.
Graduates are scattered over forty
two states, besides Alaska, the Dis
trict Of Columbia, Hawaii Philippine
islands and the Panama canal zone.
Ten foreign countries also employ
Wisconsin ngineers-Canada, Mexico,
Cuba, Jamaica, Argentine republic,
England, France, Germany, Russia,
China
About forty-seven per cent are en-
gagged by manufacturing concerns as
superintendent, craftsmen, designers
and in other capacities. More than
nine per cent are in government serv-
ice and nearly eleven per cent are
engaged in teaching, one per cent in
journalism; twelve per cent are con-
sulting and contracting engineers, and
about four per cent are statesmen for
machinery companies.
Many large concerns send repre-
sentatives annually to the university
to secure engineers, and the number
of others who call for men is ipcreas-
ing There is an unusually large de-
mand this year for engineering grad
yates. About 100 men will finish their
courses in June, and already many
firms have sent calls for men to the
college of engineering.
An interesting feature is the grow
ing practice of the smaller and more
miscellaneous manufacturing com
panies to make use of technically ed
ucated men in both manufacturing
and sales departments. Technical
journalism is another new field for
trained engineers which number have
entered. e. T. Howson, '06, civil engi-
neering editor of the Railway Age
Gazette, Chicago, is one of the most
prominent of these.
Among the prominent graduates
who hold important positions are Ed
ward Schildauer, electrical and me-
chanical engineer in charge of the
canal; G. G. Thorpe, vice-president of
the Illinois Steel company; q.

Portion of Law Illegal.

VI hiOii W Ia" s'iSS0''
That portion of the women's hours
of labor law delegating specific pow
ers Of supervision and regulation to
the industrial commission was held IL
legal by the supreme court, although
the main provisions were upheld
The opinion is written by Justice
Rosenberg. who says there are three
questions presented for determine
ton upon the appeal
First, does the statute limit the
number of hours women may be en-
pioyed in any calendar day where the
work is done party before and partly
after S o'clock p. m. OF that day? Sec
end is the statute void tor reason that
it unlawfully delegates legislative
power to The legislative commission?
Third, if it is held that the provision
delegating certain powers to the IN
dustrial commission is unconstitu-
ti0nal, and therefore void, can the
remainder of the act stand as valid
enactment?
1t seems to us clear that the iegIs

period of time during which female
might work in any one day at ten
hours. and in any enc week at fifty
five hours, says Justice Rosenberg
in the opinion of the court. he
statute specifically provides that
where all the work is done between
the hours of s p. N. on one day and
. a. NJ On the following day. it shall
be denCminated night work, and snail
not exceed eight hours.
The legislature has not stated in
expressed terms what the limita ION
should be where the work is per
formed partly before p. N and part
ly thereafter on the same day, Had
this matter been brought to its atten
ton it might have prescribed still
different limitation, but having failed
to make such specific limitation, there
is no doubt in our minds that the linn
itation as to the amount of work
which may be done in any one day.
meaning thereby the period from mid
night to midnight, is limited to ten
NC SSotSo
a cause of action"
On the second point as to whether
the statute was void for the reason
that it unlawfully delegates legisla-
tive powers to the industrial commits
sion, Justice Rosenberg declares that
this provision is void.
On the third provision the court de
clares as follows:
The question then arises: May the
remainder of the statute stand as
valid enactment 1t is clear that the
legislature intended to limit the hours
which women might be employed in
the occupation specified. and that
such regulations as are prescribed are
by the expressed terms of the statute
to remain in force for some consld-
cradle length of time. There is no
reason to suppose that the legislature
would have adopted the stature as ii
stands without the provision hereby
declared to be void as in violation OF
the constitution.
