THE AIRpLANE SHORTAGE

"Our airplane industry is more and
more reduced to relying on the work
ing up OF instruments and motors
saved from destroyed airplanes. The
supply of material for the front has
become essentially dependent on the
return OF waste material from the
front" In other words, they are re-
duced to making airplanes out of
junk.
From recent utterances made in
England and America. ii might be
fancied that this refers to the allied
air service IL happens to refer to
the German service, and serves as a
good index to the serious predicament
i'm which Germany now finds herself.
Let us keep our perspective
straight. II the Allies are hampered,
let IL not be forgotten that Germany
is in far worse plight. Nearly all the
aviation news from the battle front in
the past few weeks has indicated a
great superiority on the part of the
Allies. The British and French al
ways, and the Americans generally,
have dominated the air They have
kept the German planes on the defen-
sive, scouting back of the German
lines almost at will. blowing up Ger
man bridges and roads, harrassing
Germani columns in retreat, attacking
German batteries, bombing German
trains and factories, and in general,
making the life of the German army
miserable back as far as, and even be-
yond, the Rhine.
The only trouble is that, though SUI
perior, the Allies still lack the over
whelming superiority which they need
in order to accelerate their victories
and shorten the war as they desire.
1t is eagerness. not despair, that lends
force to the leaders complaints.
This is, indeed, thoroughly sound
reason for fastening our part of air.
plane production to the utmost. But
we needn't add worry to our hurry.
We are going to beat the Germans in
the air in any event. 1t is merely a
question of how thoroughly and quick
ly we're going to do it.

HELLO GIRLS"
DON'T LIKE NAME
To BE known 0flicially as Weman's
Telephone Unit of American
Signal Corps.

Although people who have TO wait
long for Number" often feel like
the first syllable OF a telephone call,
or want 10 say il backwards to ex-
press their degree of disgust, the
Hello" girls. who got their name
from their call, object TO the pseu-
donym.
American telephone girls in France
have registered the same kind of pro-
test against nicknames that the SOL
diers have, Y. w C. A. representa-
tiyes here have announced.
The War Department has trans
mitted their protest gainst the hello
girls" appellation. Hereafter, accord
ing 10 official statement, they are TO
be known as the Womans Telephone
Unit of the American Signal Corps.
Two homes for these girls have
been opened by the Y. W c. A., one
at 80 Rue Hamelin, Paris, formerly
the Hotel Ferras, in charge of Mrs.
Lulu Frick Taylor, of Detroit, and
the other at Tours, formerly the Ho-
tel Moderne, in charge of Miss Eliza
beth f. Fox, of New York.
The girls operate typical American
telephone exchanges, installed by,
American telephone men, and handle
all telephone connections for the diff
ferent departments of the American
Expeditionary Force between head
quarters and the different bases. The
homes and foyers provided for the
girls were all established by the Y.
w. C. A. War Work Council, under
the supervision of the commission on
training camp activities.

MADE SURE HE WAS DEAD

The enterprising company in the
Soudan decided to lay railway into
the wilds and many blacks were en-
ployed in its construction.
One day the telegrapher at the
nearest civilized spot received this
telegram from the foreman of the
constructors:
white boss dead. Shall / bury
him?''
Yes" wired back the clerk. But
first make sure that he is quite dead.
Will send another white boss tomor-
row."
A few hours later another telegram
came from the foreman:
Buried boss. Made sure he was
quite dead. Hit him on the head with
a edge-hammer" -Tid-Bit

NOAH,S VOYAGE

He marched the animals two by two
Into the Ark, except the gnu.
He, with his mate, was left outside.
They'll be all right when the floods
subside,"
Said old man Noah. "Start the cruise.
Therell aye be gossips and therefore
gnus."
The elephants were the worst to load,
One almost stepped on the left-hand
toad.
1t took some searching scrutinies
To see that the dogs had but two
fieas.
The leopards wouldn't stay in place,
But changed their spots with nimble
grace.
The tall CRATES stood hour by hour,
With heads way up in the coming
tower.
BY day he kept the hawks outside,
AS being the passengers sharpest
eyed; q
BY night, the owls, who best could
see,
For fear of submarines" said he.

CHILD LABOR LAWS
FOR WHOLE NATION
Congress Will Be Able To Pass Con-
sstitutiOnal Laws Despite Decis-
ion OF Supreme Court

Congress will be able to pass con-
stitutional child labor law, in spite of
the decision of the Supreme Court on
the first Federal law, according to
Prof. Thomas l. Parkinson, Director
of the Legislative Drafting Research
Fund Columbia University. Mr.. Park
inson has drafted new bill which has
been introduced in the House of Rep
resentatives by Congressman Heating
as a war measure and which is printed
in full in the current number of the
Child Labor Bulletin. IF this meas
ure should be adopted says Mr..
Parkinson, "it would effectively con-
troll the premature and excessive en-
ployment of children during the war
and would permit of careful study of
the whole situation as basis for per-
manent legislation to take the place of
the original act. Indeed, it might hap
pen that a war measure would be eff
fective until a favorable opportunity
is presented for a review by the SUI
preme Court of its decision"
The Bulletin presents important
data showing the effect of the war on
the children of the belligerent coun-
tries. The past few months have seen
startling increase in the amount of
child labor in this country. In some
states the number of work permits is
sued to children in two months has
exceeded the number ever before is
sued in an entire year. The efforts
that England and other countries are
now making to correct conditions due
to neglect of the children in the first
years of the war are reviewed in the
Bulletin.
A timely article deals with Rural
Child Welfare and the Red Cross" by
Mabel Brown Ellis. Miss Ellis looks
upon the Home Service Division of the
American Red Cross as affording an
unusual opportunity for the collection
and presentation of data on rural So
cial conditions, about which very little
accurate material has hitherto been
available.
The National Child Labor Commit
tee presents a further study of rural
school attendance, following its sur
vey in Oklahoma. A survey has re-
Gently been completed in Alabama,
and the first of the studies to be pub
lished is on the subject of school at

GET FULL VALUE FROM
YOUR ENSILAGE CORN

Cutting corn for the silo before it is
ready is too general practice. warns
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. The full feeding value of the
crop can not be obtained until the soft
dough stage is reached. The lower
leaves will then be dead, some of the
husks will have turned down, and the
ears will be hard, but the stalks and
upper leaves of the plants viii still be
green and succulent Cutting before
this time is like marketing cate or
hogs before they are finished.

WAR ORPHANS DAY

Tennessee found a fitting way to
celebrate Lafayette Day. On that day,
a Statewide campaign was carried
out in behalf of French war orphans.
People and organizations who had
pledged themselves to support such
little war sufferers during the past
year were urged to renew their
pledges Others who had never taken
part in this form of war relief were
asked to do so.
The system of adopting" French
and Belgian orphans is one of the
most beautiful war charities to which
Americans have gladly opened their
hearts and purses. The pitiful condi-
ton of homeless refugees of the war
zone is sad enough in any case. but
chiefly so in the little children whose
happiness and safety were cruelty
wrenched from them by war they
could not comprehend. Many of those
little folks have witnessed such hor-
rors and endured such suffering as hui
man beings have usually considered
unbearable.
Homeless, penniless and worst of
all. orphaned. they have not been ut
terly friendless. Their own govern
ment is doing a great deal to restore
to them some of the things they have
lost 1t is a tremendous task, and
every bit that American "godmothers"
and "godfathers" have been able to
accomplish by giving money and
clothing and friendliness is more than
repaid in the sweet gratitude of the
children.
