Captain Lane had retired from active
pursuit of his beloved calling and had
turned his attention to town affairs
Having succeeded in rousing the citi
z"ns to the need of drinking fountain
ana also to the need Of two coats of

felt himself valued and important
person.
One day he was asked by a sojourn-
err in the town to give his opinion OF
the present administration.
''!t's pretty fair" said the captain

Workshop Environment,

We cannot ignore the influence Of
surroundings upon the mental condi-
ton and therefore upon the spirit and
efficiency of a working corps. Attrac-
tive buildings and pleasant surround
ings very distinctly make for higher
tone and n better class of workers.
even if they do not show an immedi-
ate increased productive efficiency,
which it is maintained they actually
do. And, whatever else may be said,
grass plots instead Of cinder piles. oc.
casional trees instead of scrap heaps,
vines or shrubbery instead of insight
ley fences or sheds. certainly tend to
make factory life less disagreeable
and more pleasant to those obliged to
live it and cannot fail to be, therefore,
worth while intrinsically.-O.M NJ. Beck.
