In his Modern Painters" John Rus
kin says this:
No change OF place at a hundred miles
an hour, nor making stuffs at a thousand
yards a minute will make US one whit
stronger, happier or wiser"
Let US examine the evidence.
How do we make men stronger, hap
pier and wiser?
believe the method Is somewhat like
this:
Give men work as interesting as pos
sible, at a wage as large as possible
with leisure as much as possible.
The nature Of your work will ultimately
decide the nature Of you.
Doing things in a sixty-mile-a- minute
way multiplies production-and produc-
tion Is wealth.
A wealthy people are happy people
that is. they have enough to go round.
An the thousand-yard-a-minu meth
cd also means more production, more
wealth and-more leisure!
Wisdom comes with leisure, for It is
leisure that gives us the time to cultl-
vate that little patch that lies directly
meath our green velours.
Ruskin is not consistent, for In the
very same book he also says this:
ITO be strong we must work; to be
happy we must be kind; to be wise we
must look and think"
II work develops strength, then a
greater or lesser amount of work will
develop a greater or lesser degree OF
strength.
And your sixty-mile machine
has multiplied man capacity as nothing
else ever has.
Happiness" says Ruskin. denotes
kindness"
Then the machine that brings man
closer to man contributes more to hap
piness than aught else, for only as man
is active with other men does he come

CAR STRIKERS
STANDING PAT
No Relief in Sight in Strike

Local Labor Representatives Encour-
age Men to Continue Firm
in Walk-out.

I'VE are standing pat" yesterday de-
clared the striking employees of the Wash
ington and Old Dominion Railway.
There is no change In the situation" {"
was the statement from the railroad.
The unchanged situation for the rail-
road means that this morning the 1000
persons living in Virginia who work in
Washington and use the Old Dominion
will walk or "jitney" to District en-
virons. With its tracks becoming rusty
from their nonuse since Friday after
noon, hope of relief for the former pa
irons Of the railway line is not yet in
sight.
The strikers held an encouragement
meeting last night in the Potomac Saw
ings Bank, Wisconsin avenue and NJ
street northwest. One of the speakers
all of whom told the car men to keep
1t up"-was Crandall Mackey, Common
wealth attorney of Alexandria County
The gtst OF his talk was that the peo-
pie of Virginia suburbs were back Of
the strikers
They would rather walk than patron
lie a car operated by strike breakers, 8"
he is reported to have said.
Labor Men Encourage Strikers,
Other speakers were representatives
from various labor unions OF Washing
ton. Several were from Local $50, the re-
Gently formed union of employees Of the
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany and Capital Traction Company
Their most encouraging words were
that their union as well as other labor
organizations were at variance with the
American Federation Of Labor in its re-
ported contemplated plan Of revoking the
union charter of Old Dominion employees
They promised to investigate and to act
II the charter is revoked.
a. Rosenbaum. president of the strikers
union, yesterday made a tour of in
Vestigation along the Old Dominion route
TO Bluemont. He reported all of the
twenty stations closed, with every car
man. telegraph operator station keeper
ana even roustabout in the waIk-out,
None OF the strikers had shown signs
OF weakening, he said.
W. b. Emmert, vice president and gem

night the company did not intend To
operate cars today. He could NOT saw

would not say whether they would wait

STOLEN ART COMING TO U. s.
Many Churches Robbed in Italy
During the War,

Rome, May 1.-THE recent robberies Of
valuable paintings from st. Peters s
Basilica at Perugia and Etruscan gold
jewelry from the Museum of Corneto,
as we'll as thefts of minor works of art
from small churches in Tuscany, are
suspected to be due to the increased de-
mand for Italian works of art abroad,
and especially in America.
In fact, despite the war art dealers in
Italy are doing a profitable business.
Many American buyers for museums and
collectors in the United States are now
in Italy. An ancient statue has been sold
for $4,000 in Rome, two figures by Dona-
tello have fetched 100000 in Florence,
and similar big deals in paintings and
sculptures have been made in Venice and
other cities.
1t is admitted that business transac-
tons In works of art with American
buyers have been aboveboard and legal,
but 1t is believed that art dealers agents
resort to robbery to satisfy their custo-
mers. Since mobilization the Italian
churches and museums are not so well
guarded as before. 1t is probable that
the fine art department will suspend the
granting of expectation permits during
the remainder Of the war.

In the Treatment

remember that first aid to relief is
found in abundance Of fresh air-day
