'"The Steel shares under the leadership

chiefly to covering of shorts. The short

talize a somewhat more cheerful senti-

CUBA is BEST SHOE MARKET
offers Greatest Possibilities of ANY
Country in World for American
Manufacturers, 1t Is Said.

Cuba is at present the best market
in the world for American footwear,
says a report on the subject just pub
lished by Uncle Sans bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce. AL
though the climate is tropical, very
few even of the poorest natives go
without footwear of some kind, and
the per capita consumption of shoes
is therefore very heavy. Over so per
cent of the business is done by Amer
ican firms, as there is no competition
from local manufacturers and not any
of great Importance from Europe.
In spite of Americas strong position
in the market, however, the author of
the report, Special Agent Herman G..
Brock, asserts that there are many
ways in which our hold on the market
can be strengthened, as there are a
number of features in the Cuban trade
not well understood by the American
manufacturer.

Strontium Ore Produced.

For the first time in many years
strontium ore has been marketed from,
deposits in the United States, accord
ing to J. M. Hill of the United States
geological survey, department of the
interior. Most of the ore marketed in
1915 was produced in Arizona and
California. The ore mined in the state
of Washington was not marketed. The
domestic output was equal to about
10 per cent of the ordinary demand,
which amounts to 1000 tons. The
British embargo on strontium salts
need cause little dlsquiet among Amer
lean users, 1t is declared, for abundant
ore is no doubt available in this coun-
try, and American chemists have
shown that they can profitably make
the salts needed here.

HEALTH IS IMPORTANT
Basis for All Work in Schools,
Declare Experts.
Uncle Sans Agencies Arc Working to
Extend Sanitary Regulations Of
Cities Of Rural Communities.

The most important element in the
education of children is the establish
ing of good health and right living
habits, according to those experts OF
Uncle Sans bureau of education who
make this their life problem. Half a
century ago the attention of those re-
sponsible for the care of children In
city schools was drawn to these I'M
portant features of school and life and
work, and much has been done, say the
experts, in the last two decades for
the improvement of the sanitary fea-
lures of school houses and grounds and
for school regimen in cities.
Only recently, however, it is pointed
out, has much attention been given to
health conditions in country schools,
but rural school sanitation Is now re-
ceiving the attention of several govern
mental and state agencies. An inter-
esting study of rural school sanitation
has recently been completed by the
United States public health service in
certain part of the state of Indiana.
1t is thought that the conditions
found in that locality are, at least in
the main, those that exist to more or
less degree in many of the rural schools
in the country. For one thing 1t was
found that there is an undue number
of one-room. rural schools. Among
other things it was thought by the Of
ficials making the survey that an un-
due number of old buildings are being
utilized which have largely passed the
limits of usefulness for educational
purposes. Many of these, it is said.
were without the proper sanitary IA
cilities and some were even without
any water supply. Many had faulty IL
Elimination of the classrooms and still
others were without adequate class
room equipment; some were improper
ly heated and poorly ventilated and
still others presented evidences of in
efficient janitors service.
The large number of children pre-
senting physical defects of such gravity,
as to demand specialized medical and
surgical attention, say the experts, is
an evidence of the need of medical
supervision of the school children of
the counties in the interests of the
childs educational advancement and
for the protection of the community
health.
The undue number of mentally de-
fective and retarded school children
revealed by the study made emphasizes
the necessity, say the experts, of the
mental classification of the children for
the purpose of revealing those who are
in need of institutional or individual
lied treatment.

UNCLE SAM NEEDS 10000
STENOGRAPHERS AND
TYPEWRITERS AT ONCE

Washington, D. c., Oct. 24.-Now
that Uncle Sam has the young men of
the country in training for military
service, he finds that he needs 10000
typewriter operators and stenograph-
ers and typewriters, both men and wo-
men, for the Departments at Wash
ington. The Civil Service Commits
sion has notified all of its 5000 boards
of examiners that they should put
forth their best efforts to secure these
urgently needed workers. While ex-
aminations am now held weekly in
$50 cities, the Commission states that
arrangements will be made to have an
examination held at any accessible
place where a small class of appli-
cants can be secured. The entrance
salaries range from $1,000 to $1,000 a
year, Promotion is reasonably rapid to
those whose services prove satisfac-
tory. No appointments can be made
to these or other positions in the Fed
eral classified civil service unless au-
thorized by the Civil Service Commits
sion under the civil service law Any
information to the contrary is unau-
thorized. This is a splendid oppor-
tunity to serve sour country. Full in
formation may be secured from the
secretary of the board of civil SER
vice examiners at the post Office in
your city.
