The child nodded. ''He often brings

Why Labor Is Scarce,

Here is one reason which YOU may
have overlooked why labor is growing
Scarccr every day in the United States :
We have now In Pennsylvania alone
22o,000 automobiles. Onc-third Of them
are pleasure cars driven by chavf-
fcurs, an army of 10000 ablc-bodicd
men removed entirely from produc-
tive work.
The army Of pleasure car chauffenrs
in the whole country must exceed half
Il million mcn-all nonproducers. In
deed. there is another great big army
Of men building pleasure cars to be
operated by these other nonproducers
Of essentials.
They used to complain in Germany
that every taxpayer had to carry n sol
dicr on his bnck. We vary 1t IN the
United States by carrying chauffeur
on our backs, says "Glrard" in the
