Throughout the United States rail
roads are employing women In many
capacities. and in the interest OF eff
cheney they are opening schools of in
structionS in connection with the vari-
Gus branches In which there lis need
for woman labor. Women are rapidly
replacing men as ticket agents. as
freight clerks and as package check
ers, and are performing their work
VITA satisfaction to their employers.
II the yards and shops women have
already demonstrated themselves as
the equals, and in many cases as the
superiors. OF men as car cleaners.
A note OF warning has been issued
In connection with the employment OF
women in railroad labor in the United
States. In their eagerness to take
work abandoned by the men who have
gone into military service they have
overlooked the limit placed on fern
mime strength. II was found by in
vestigators that in some Of the rail-

lions OF New York and New Jersey.
This phase OF woman's work has been
deemed especially well fitted to fem
mime hands. and many delicate women
have found themselves growing strong
at their open air tasks.
Openings for women In the less
arduous lines OF city work are to be
found In the elevator. messenger. and
kindred forms Of unskilled labor left
open by the men and boys called to
military duty. Tho telephone and tele-
graph companies are calling for wom-
en- to aid them in their extending serv-
ices. and the banks are admitting
women to their offices.
Safeguarding Health
With women crowding into industry
the Government realizes the necessity
for the exercise OF protective meas
ures in the matter OF safeguarding the
health Of the women. limiting their
hours OF labor and setting a wage
standard for them. 1t believes that
to save wastage of woman strength
Is even more essential than to avoid
waste OF materials. Measures are be.

Marine CamounaEc.
Marine Camoufage began early in
the war when Germany hid her Y
boats by using her wireless masts as
supports for sails, which made them
appear to other vessels as harmless
sail boats until they were close enough
to their prey to fire torpedo.
Another camouf.age by the U-hoat is
70 surround the periscope with DRIFT,
wood which gives 1t the appearance
OF harmless looking mass of sea
weed or debris. and before the ship
selected as a victim gets close enough

hagc of the ocean. Recently 1t has
been suggested tina. the superstruc-
ture OF the ship be painted a blue To
match the sky or some other color to
blend with the horizon. Another idea
Is to paint the ship in a wavy design
to represent the ocean. This makes
the ship rather indistinct In the eye
OF the periscope.
