REGULATING HOURS or LABOR


That the length Of the working
day should not be fixed arbitrarily
but should rest upon the results Of a
rigid scientific study was the conclu-
sion reached by Prof. +. $. lee in
his late address to the American
Public Health association. Some
kinds of labor are more exhausting
than others and laborers are net all
alike, and the study should aim to
classify work and workers on the
basis Of the physiological effects Of
different occupations and the physio-
logical capacities Of different labor
ers. Such an inquiry, which is be-
ieved to be not impossible, would
probably lead to an elastic system, in
which the work would be adapted to
the worker and the workers to the
work. In one industry the duration
Of labor might be eight hours, in an
other it might be more or less than
eight hours and in a single industry
one worker might labor longer than
another. Such a solution could be
made to satisfy both economic and
social demands, and lead to the maxi
mum of individual and national eff
cheney. Any formal regulation of
the day is only for those employed
by others. AS a man leaves this stage |
he is free TO choose his working time,
and it is noteworthy fact that the
daily task of the worlds leaders is
limited by no consideration of 8, 10,
IL or 16 hours.

Rivals SChumaRn-Hsink As Drawing Card
on Return Engagement.

One of the interesting things about
Miss Sarah Mildred Wilmer is that
she is not on the stage, but on the
Chautauqua platform instead, by de-
liberate choice. The stage had long
sought to claim her dramatic ability
but the Chautauqua won out in the
struggle because of the clean, con-
Bistent opportunity to reach the masses
which it affords. Always wishing to
do her share toward the developing in
the public mind a love for and appre-
citation Of the good and pure in peo-
pie and literature she finds in the
Chautauqua her most profitable field
of endeavor. On the Monmouth Chau-
tauqua Madam SchumannHeink and
Miss Wilmer filled return engage
ments during the same session. We
quote from the newspaper report re-
garding Miss Willmer's evening: "Be-
fore an audience which equaled in
number that of the opening night
when Madam Schumann-Heink gave
her recital Miss Wilmer completely
won the hearts Of the Monmouth peo-
pie The most eloquent testimony
that could be given in regard to Miss
Willmer's recital was the profound

REGENERATION
full OF LAUGHS
Politics Woven Around the Elixir Tablet
of Eternal Youth.

Now that the Glare Vaughan Wales
Lyceum Players are assured for our
Chautauqua, it is a bit interesting to
note that their play Regeneration"
was the first one to be offered to the
Lyceum and Chautauqua people. Of
course, Shakespeare's plays have from
time to time been given with small
companies, but this play by Warner
Harding is the first to be especially
written for the work. 1t meets the de-
mands Of the people who favor clean,
wholesome dramatic art in preference
to transforming.
Regeneration" is a modern, up-to-
date cOmedy-drama and has we'll been
called the play of the hour with a
punch and as a committeeman once
said each punch rebounds with
laugh" Even the pathetic old grand
mother has her sense of humOr. The
wit Of the play varies in it's style from
the witless Lord Deconsfeld to the
powerful political boss Norton. There
is just enough comedy to relieve the
dramatic intensity that grips the audi
ence at the opening Of the play and
holds them till the last. The interest
in the plot never Wanes for an instant
from the time it is apparent that the
old lady will "rejuvenate" to the time
when she becomes the wife of the new
governor. Politics and sharp, clean
comedy are woven about the Elixir
Tablet of Eternal Youth-whereby

the hygiene of childhood. 1t is said
that some of her demonstrations are
truly remarkable and that her lecture
is interesting and instructive to men
as we'll as women. On many Chautau-

1t would seem from this that the

half Of what is said about her work
is true we are to be distinctly favored
during the Chautauqua. We under
stand she will give the new play Eek

church and club ladies will plan a re-
ception for her while here, if her time
will permit.
That she is practical may be Judged
from the fact that during the fourteen
weeks she gave to lecturing at the
ChautauquaS last summer she found
homes for 48 girls and the last town
reported as follows: Mrs. Robertson
has won for herself the distinction Of
meeting personally and winning the
friendship of more people along the
Chautaqua route than any other per-
son on the circuit"
We understand that her family has
recently met with some serious re-
verses and as she is announced to lee
ture on Success Where You Are"
her lecture will be awaited with con-
siderable interest This lecture en-
phasizes the home interest phase of
ChautauQua. She is a favorite with
enlightened civic organizations
throughout the country. Her admir-
ers agree that as a speaker she proves
herself as charming as her written
work would indicate.

The pictures we reproduce herewith
are expressive of two sides Of the
Sadler ability-the handcar indicates
that they are on the offensive
against the entrenched. forms of dis
ease and that they get to their dates
some other way if the regular modes
of travel are not available. They are
not accustomed to giving up to OBJ
stacles. The other cut indicates the
graphic way in which they bring
within the range of the ordinary per-
son the findings of medical science.
The instrument which made this rec
ord is a very delicately adjusted ma
chine by which the action of the heart
is recorded on a smoked drum. There
is a similar instrument by which the
record is made of the depth and regu-
larity of the breathing. By compar-
ing the readings Of this instrument
taken under pleasurable and unpleas-
ant influences the physiological and
psychological effects Of faith and fear

the famous rhyme "Of Agin, On
