Invariably buttressed by a strong

FOR ITALY'S BABIES.

Motherhood in Italy just now is not
the JOY that it might be, for the poor
women are at their wits ends to clothe
the children already In the family, not
to mention the preparation for the lit
tie newcomers. Perhaps the most ap-
preciated gifts of the American Red
Cross at this time are the layettes
which are being given to the mothers
OF Italy. Each layette consists of
twenty-four pieces and includes four
bright colored swathing bands, so dear
to the heart of the Italian woman
Twenty layettes week are needed at
Chioggia alone.

FOREIGN SERVICE ATTRACTIVE.
Job Applicant Drew Lots and Went
to Africa Instead of France

While the mems division of the Dis
trict of Columbia Office of the United
States employment service places sew
eral thousand mechanics and laborers
every month, it also supplies stenogra-
pliers, typists, craftsmen, interpreters
and clerks for positions in the various
states, and even distant countries.
when it was made known some
time ago that the department of state
wanted young men for foreign service,
we had many applicants anxious to go
to the war zone" said Edwin NJ. Kline,
examiner in charge of the District of
Columbia. "Ten stenographers were
selected from the number that quali-
fled and then it was announced that
in order to play fair they must draw
lots for locations.
Naturally, all expected to be sent
somewhere in France and there was
n surprised young man who found that
Africa was PLAINLY marked on his
slip. But he was game and he went
away declaring that a little jungle
experience might make him fit to fight
in the barbed wire entanglements of
the front line trenches, when the time
came for him to exchange his type
writer for rifle"

HOW WOMEN MAKE LIBERTY BONDS
AT UNCLE SANS ENGRAVING PLANT
Great task of Preparing Securities
Depends Upon Busy Feminine Patriots; Placing
Eight Thousand Sheets Per Day Is Work
of Average Girl

"a large part of the work of pre-
pairing the millions of bonds for the
Fourth Liberty loan is done by wom-
en-" says James L. Wilmeth, director
of the United States bureau of print
ing and engraving. "All of the count
ing and examining of the bonds and
much assistance in printing, requiring
accuracy and skill devolves upon our
1000 women employees.
"The amount of speed required in
getting out the bonds has completely
revolutionized the art of revenue print
ing. We are achieving results we
never thought possible. More speed
has been made in revenue printing in
the last eight months than was made
in ten years previous to the war. This
is because it has been necessary to
find new methods and to employ es-
tablished methods to the limit to
speed up the issue of the bonds. Dur
ing the first issue of Liberty loan
bonds the extra work involved was so
tremendous it was impossible to de-
liver the bonds until weeks after the
drive began. The Fourth Liberty loan
drive finds US fully prepared to meet
the demands of the banks, and when
the drive opened on September 81 We
had sufficient bonds ready for the
treasury department to meet require
ments.
Story of a Bond.
Most of the work of plate printing
the bonds can be done in advance of
the issue and particularly so with tenn
porary bonds, which have been stand
ardized. The story of the bond, which
differentiates one issue of temporary
bonds-from another is printed in when
the details of the issue, rate of inter-
est, date of maturity, ETC., are fully
decided and authorized"
Women in the bureau of printing
and engraving do not wear uniforms
but most of them chose immaculate
white blouses and dark skirts. They
are of all ages, some having come
into the plant as girl ushers and risen
to positions of responsibility. Sew
eral of the departments are in charge
of women, among them being the ex-
amining. stamp perforating and num-
bering divisions.
1t is interesting to trace the max
ing of the bond from the time the
especially prepared paper is opened in
the wetting room, until the bonds are
packed in bundles of thousand each,
ready for delivery to the United States
treasury.

GRANT HAMILTON FORMS WORKING
CONDITIONS SERVICE IN LABOR DEPT
Is Member of Denver Typographical Union
Der of Years Was Head of the Legislative Department
of the American Federation Labor
in the National Capital

In order to guard against the mis-
takes that England and other coun-
tries made early in the war thru
working employees too long hours and
otherwise disregarding proper work
ing conditions in industry, the depart
ment of labor has established a work
ing conditions service, the object of
which is to maintain the most helpful
conditions possible for the great body
of war workers in the United States.
This service will be intrusted with
the task of examining into working
conditions in the variuos war indus
tries. 1t will determine standards
which shall be maintained in the war
industries, and will adopt rules en-
bodying and explaining these stand
ards. 1t will also determine the best
means of insuring the adoption and
maintenance of such standards and
will cooperate with state authorities
for the purposes mentioned. Grant
Hamilton, long with the American
Federation of Labor, is director. Ham,
ilton is member of Denver Typo
graphical Union No. 40.
The inspection work Of other de-
partments will not be duplicated, but
the service will endeavor to combine
their functions in a way that will
cover the entire field of war indus
tries by bringing together represen-
tatives Of other departments in the
formation Of a uniform policy. Work
ing conditions will be considered not
only from the point Of view Of pro-
duction but also from the point Of
