 Thus yesterday Benson intro dueed an eight hour day law for females working in mercantile estab- lishments, hospitals, telephone and telegraph offices. Inasmuch as all of these practically work but eight hours now, the idea is to shut out the actual ten hour female workers

BERNIE, March 18.-That Ger many is inclined to placate national opinion in the United States is seen by the arrival of fifty-five men, all of them citizens of the United States who were on the Yarrowdale. Many of them express great satisfac-- ton at being on the way home and were, astonished to find that on crossing the border, they were told that all diplomatic relations had been broken with Germany. Swiss officials requested the released pri- s0ners not to discuss conditions in Germany nor the German treatment of them within the confines of the Swiss territory. This request has been recognized and is not being violated by the Americans now on their way home

Two of the leading men of the Spit made an eff fort to have some action taken but encountered no sort of encourage ment from those city fathers whom they interviewed.
 Not being n authority on either the fauna or the flora of the coun- try, reporter of the Worker who received the following story with some skeptical interests thinks it worth passing on to our readers:
 Tt is stated by an old timer that during the last summer while walk ing in from one of the camps on Snake river, as he was proceeding along the Hot Air ditch he was startled by a splash in the water of the ditch and looking quickly he saw what he supposed was turtle. On investigation his supposition proved to be true. The turtle was about the size of the palm of his hand.

The Length of Life

From Youth s Companion.
 Sickness and death have always existed in the world and always will so long as mans physical constitution remains what it is. The body is evidently intended to fast only a certain time, although man himself has unquestionably greatly short ened the length of it's endurance. The limit of threescore years and ten, set by the Psalmst, deprives us of many years that are our due.
 Students of longevity have established the rule that the animal body, including mans, should endure, barring accident, five times as long as it takes it to reach full maturity, as marked by the complete justification of the bones. In many that period is about 20 years, and man should therefore, live to round out a century. That he usually lives only half or three quarters as long is his fault and the fault of his ancestors.
 A French writer once asserted that a man is as old as his arteries, meaning that the degenerative changes of old age were dependent upon or measurable by the degree of hardening of the arteries That is undoubtedly true to a certain extent but epigrams do not solve prob lens or even explain facts. It affords slight comfort to know that we are as old as our arteries if We do not know how to prevent them from aging prema- turely

SANDPAPER TESTED
 TO REDUCE COSTS
Minute Items Watched to Raise Stand
 ards of Quality in Dodge Cars

"Of the countless details entailed in
 tho manufacture of Dodge Brothers motor car. one of the most unique is the test which determines the relative worth of two seemingly insignificant articles-sandpaper and emery cloth,
 said Don Drennen of the Birmingham Motor company.
 Ordinary manufacturers are usually content to use any one of the many
 brands which are offered to users of abrasives, feeling that the difference between them Is so slight that any
 possible saving would be insignificant
 But Dodge Brothers. in their desire to
 reduce costs and raise manufacturing
 standards, felt that even the selection
 of sandpaper could be made on an ef- ficiency basis.
 With this, end in view the experts in Dodge Brothers laboratories designed machine which indicates very accur- ately the quality of the various makes of sandpaper and emery cloth submit ted to the purchasing department. At the end of a predetermined per fod. accurate weighing indicates which sample removed the most grams of wood per gram loss of sand. Thus a standard is set and the decision of l the purchasing department is based upon it.
 "The test for emery cloth is substan- tially the same, except that blocks of 1 soft steel are used instead of wood Large quantities of these materials I are used in the pattern making de- | partments, the die shop, the body plant and in the machine and carpenter shops of Dodge Brothers works at 1 Detroit which lends considerable sig. ! nificance to the extremely simple test 1 of their quality"

 CALL IS ISSUED
Young President of Auto mobile Concern Subject
 to COnscription

Don Drennen, president of one of the largest automobile and accessory con- cerns in the state, Is just A years of age, and if Congress decided that eonscription is the proper means of raising the United States army to the necessary fighting strength, he will have to join the colors. But this does not seem to worry MT. Drennen. as he states that he is ready when the call comes to go and do what he can for his country
 MT. Drennen sees no reason for fear in the automobile business, believing in the stability of business conditions in this line. and says that he can see noth- ing but signs of increased business ahead:
 "When the United States broke off re- lations with Germany, I felt that the time would come when would feel obli- gated to place myself at the disposal of the military authorities he said. And consequently I have been only waiting the time when the government should have finally decided on what military policy 1t would pursue"
 "If I am chosen in the operation of the selective draft system, I will gladly go and do what I can towards the suc- cessful prosecution of the war. If Con- BreSs uecldeS on a volunteer system, 1 shall volunteer my services he con- tinued
 1T shall ask for no favors or exemp- tions from the government, and don't think anybody should. At a time like this the importance of unified action on the part of the country cannot be over estimated, and I. for one, am disposed to let the officials at Washington do the thinking and the planning-and when the time comes to do my part I shall do it unquestioningly.
 Meanwhile, I have business interests that take up all of my time and if for this reason I may not seem thoroughly zealous, I hope my friends will not mis- understand. I do not see how will bet ter serve my country by neglecting my present business-but when I do take up my military duties I expect to give them the same whole hearted attention,' he continued.
