What FRANKS time can play! The

Phelan of The Honor System" is a
case in point Twenty years ago, in
1897, Cannon, prosperous young
tourist, passed through Yuma, Ariz.,
and as special privilege was permit
ted to go through the old state peni-
Tertiary there. which has since been
discarded. He surveyed the grim old
hooks of the place and congratulated
himself that he did not have to stay
there over half an hour and was free
to leave it at will. In the fall of 1915
Doc Cannon again went through the
old prison. But this time he spent
eight weeks in and about it and was
in fact the warden" of it, since he
was engaged, as movie actor, to lord
it over the horde of mimic convicts
with which it was now peopled Doc

PROMOTING THE
HAPPY FAMILY PLAN IN
AMERICAN INDUSTRY
How One Corporation Works In
Harmony With Its Men.
AN INDUSTRIAL DEMOCRACY

All Grievances Presented by Men
Through Representatives Reach Head
of Company and Are Honestly lnves-
tigated.
For more than a year a large and
progressive industrial corporation with
plants scattered over large territory
in several states of the southwest has
been improving its relations with its
employees through the medium of So
called industrial representation plan
an Industrial constitution drawn on
basis of democracy and mutual conf
dence between the head of the com.
pany and the workmen who number
from 10000 to 10000.
To deal with the diverse interests
of such vast body of men is serious
task involving stern responsibilities.
Nevertheless the company. through its
representation plan, has not only car
ried on social and industrial betterment
work on comprehensive scale but has
succeeded In settling all grievances
without friction and without interfer-
ence from the outside. During the
year several increases in pay have
been made upon the initiative of the
company.
Altogether the plan has demonstrate
ed itself to an important forward step
in the establishment of amicable re-
lations between all the factors in i'll
dustry. more widespread adoption
of such schemes in plants and fac
tories is heartily recommended by the
broad minded manufacturers of the
country who have started the National
Industrial Conservation Movement for
the purpose of getting employers and
employees together. The supporters
of the conservation movement realize
that the captain of industry and the
workingman must fight shoulder to
shoulder to protect American industry
against conditions that are sure to
prevail after the War
Workers Elect Representatives.
The Industrial Representation plan
was adopted in its present form by
the directors of the company and by
a referendum vote of the workmen.
By secret ballot the workmen in the
company's various plants select repre-
sentatives who act as their authorized
agents in all matters pertaining to en-
ployment, living and working condi-
tons, the adjustment of differences,
and other matters Of mutual concern
and interest. On the other hand, the
president keeps in direct touch with
the workmen through officers known
as presidents industrial representa-
tives.
Employees have been made to under
stand that they are absolutely free to
present all their grievances even
though they involve charges against
the foremen or superintendent under
whom they work. Through the work

HONORED ST. PATRICK.
First-Class Entertainment by the Cecili-
an Club Management.

After observing st. Patrick's day in a
very liberal manner by the wearing OF
the green, the descendants of the Emer-
aid isle taxed the Knights of Columbus

where they paid noteworthy tribute to
the patron saint of Celts in an entertain
ment planned under the auspices of the
Cecilian club, the affair taxing the form
of a box social
Not the least pleasurable feature Of
the evenings entertainment was the va
ricd program, with local talent rendering
songs, and people of the circle posing as
living pictures to represent the songs
which were sung. After the program
was completed. boxes prepared by the
women were put up for the supper, com
plotting the most successful entertain
ment in every way.
For the successful outcome of their
St Patrick's day observance, too much
credit cannot be given the committee
which had charge of the plans for the
performance, and their subcommittee
worked well with the general committee
to make the whole affair booming festi-
val. The hall was lastly decorated in
green with the words "Cecilian Club" on
one side, in gold letters, while on the
letters were draped small American and
Irish flags. The platform was enclosed
with curtains throughout the entertain
ment, but afterward the curtains were
drawn hack, and two large flags, the
American and Irish, were exhibited, sus-
pended from the ceiling to the floor.
Not hitch occurred in the program,
and the audience lent careful ear to
the musica, as well as watehful eye to
the picture, and no time was lost in call.
ing for an encore of music and reappear-
ance of the living model. Each and every
one performed excellently in their roles,
and not dull moment was encountered

gram ended with the appearance of Mrs.
