a nationwide appeal to the electri-

Schuyler S. Wheeler, past president
OF the American Institute of Electri-
cal Engineers.
Never before In the history of
this country" DR.. Wheeler said
has the electrical industry been call
ed upon for greater service. Ger
many has made this a war OF steel
and iron. a mechanical war; the
United States will make 1t an cleo
tricla war. Every man connected
with electrical industry is vitality in
terested In the war, and the United
States expects the electrical inventors
and engineers to carry the Stars and
Stripes to victory.
The country leads the world in
the application of electricity to the
arts OF peace-now II must lead in
applying that great force to war.
Here we have thousands OF the best
trained and most active brains In the
world engaged In electrical industry;
thousands of universally used cleo
trical devices were invented here.
Let those brains grapple with the
problems of the war and It is likely
that we shall see the appliance de-
veloped that will end the war.
I'VE are starting our warlike prep
arations for war years after the other
belligerents-let US make speed and
through our inventiveness bring
about an early peace. The most
deadly weapons OF the war. such as
the airplane and submarine, are
American inventions-let us make
history repeat itself. now that we
are facing the vital necessity. One
invention may save the lives OF mill
lions OF men who are sorely needed
to do the worlds work. Let all Amer
lean electricians, from the highest to
the lowest, concentrate on aiding the
government. now that the United
States is forced into the world war"

School for Man Building.
(By John M. Oskison.) }

tBy JOnn Nj. OSKlBOn.)
Henry Ford's spokesman In his
school for man building. which Incl
dentally makes motor cars in large
numbers. said the other day:
I'VE receive every man on six
mon tbs probation. This is our-pre-
paratory school. in which a man
qualities for profit sharing 1t is dur
ing this time that we make a careful
study OF his habits.
III at the end OF six months we are
satisfied as to his ability to make use
OF his profits. we place him on the
profit sharing list. He must have
demonstrated the fact that he spends
money in constructive way.
There are but two ways of spend
ing money. One builds up and the
other destroys the man. his family.
and the community In which he lives.
Much has been said about the
home as the foundation OF state and
church. We have made the discov-
cry that the family is also the basis
OF right economic and Industrial con-
ditions. The welfare OF the factory.
no less than the welfare of the state
and church depends upon the home.
Therefore We keep close watch on
the home. We encourage better
housing. We take families up bodily.
II need be. and move them into bet
ter neighborhoods.
I'VE insist that a man shall pro-
vide generously in proportion to his
means for his wife and children.
Should he fail to do this, we may
turn his profits over to his wife until
he learns to do the square thing. We
impress upon the mans mind that the
one condition on which he will share
profits with him is that he in turn
share them with his family"
No home In which a Ford worker
lives must be shared by boarders or
roomers, and wives seldom object to
this ruling"
The reorganization and re-estab-
lishment OF the home-on a basis OF
adequate pay-seems to be the one
outstanding feature OF the modern
social workers program. Saving
and the proper use OF the money
spent, are essential to the mainte-
nance OF the home.
See what happens at Ford's place
when a man fails to show that he
spends constructively. He is called
into the office and warned that he
must cure himself Of destructive hab-
its-until he does, his profits will be
withheld. II within 80 days he
makes good. these withheld profits
are paid; II he takes 60 days to get
right, only rs per cent Of his profits
OF that period are paid. If he is still
incurred at the end OF six months. he
is discharged automatically.
The Ford plan has this to recon-
mend-it works.

The fact that Major f. w. Bowles.

The reason for the transfer IL because
in the present methods OF warfare in
Europe very few cavalrynen are used.
The change also means that the train
