The fact that Scissors is a great
railroad center, that from it run great
arteries Of transportation, makes it of
great military importance to both the
allies and the Germans. These rail-
roads are useful in an advance in any
general direction toward Paris.
The double track railroad from
Laon, linking up with the entire sys-
tenn Of transportation behind the Ger
man lines. runs into Scissors and
there connects with similar lines run
ming west to Compeigne, southwest to
CREEPY. and another line running
southeast to Rheims. 1t is this line
that is of such vital Importance in the
present operation. The road runs
from scissors to Bozoches, thence
southwest along the Ourcq, midway
between the Aisne and the Marine. A
single track railroad branching off at
Nanteuil-Notre Dame runs due south
to Chateau-Thierry. A few miles east
of Bozoches, at Fismes, another single
track railroad runs southeast to. Sacy.
There is still another little line
branching off from this last road,
which run down to the Marine at
Verneuil.
Effects Entire Salient.

Mountain of Paris means control Of
the rail transport in the entire Marine
salient. 1t is significant hat General
Manoury, after turning Won Kluck's
flank in the first battle Of the Marine,
followed up the %retreating Germans
until they reached the Aisne at Sois-
sons. There they made a stand. but
by taking the Mountain of Paris,
Manoury was able to force the enemy
out of Scissors and prevent them
from taking the place.
During the long months and years
that followed, the Germans made re-
peated efforts to reach Scissors, but
were unable to do SO. Lying on the
south side of the river. scissors can
not be held easily in the lace Of at
tacks from the south, since the de-
tenders are always in danger of hav-
ing their retreat cut off by the de-
struction Of bridges.
With their guns IN high ground
within a mile or two Of scissors. the
Franco-American forces can easily
command the vital rail connections Of
the whole Marine salient. And so long
as they hold these positions any ad-
vance toward Paris in future must
start fully twenty-five or thirty miles
farther back than vas possible before
the Allied counter-offense began.

Are You An Employer?
(By Roger w. Babson.

1T am sorry, Jack" said Mrs.
Hampstead to her husband as he came
home hungry to dinner, but h cook
has left. and I have no dinner for
you"
How does that happen?" asked
Jack, angrily. And Jack was angry.
Anyone who understands men, knows
that there is a very close relationship
between their temper and their
stomachs. When a man is cross it is
usually because he is hungry. In fact,
this probably is the basis for the IA
nous answer of the woman who was
asked how to keep a nan happy, and
she replied "Feed the brute"
Jack Hampstead was a, big manu-
bottom of things. He therefore ross
questioned his wife until he found
these to be the facts:
Some three weeks previous the
Hampsteads had the Browns in to
dinner. Mrs. Brown was very much
impressed with the cooking at the
Hampsteads. Her cook being unsatis-
factory. Mrs. Brown made up her
mind to secure Mrs Hampstead's
cook. She knew that every Wednesday
Mrs. Hampstead went to a Red Cross
meeting and left the house alone. On
the following Wednesday when Mrs.
Hampstead was out she stole around
to Mrs. Hampstead's back door and
offered the coo a dollar more a week
to come YER to the Browns.
The cook did not know what to do.
She liked Mrs. Hampstead. She, how
ever, had been with Mrs. Hampstead
so'long that she didn't dare to tell her
h was going to work for
else. She told her h was tired and
needed a vacation-needed a change.
1t was a terrible mix up, and I can't
go into all the details; but 1 know that
the Hampsteads were awfu1ly mad
about 1t, because stealing the neigh
boris cook" is h objectionable sin
among w~ell-regulated families
But why is it any worse for Mrs.
Brown to steal Mrs. Hampstead's
cook, than it is for Mr.. Hampstead to
steel Mr.. Browns foreman? Why
should n rule apply to IN and
not apply also to men? Why should
one rule apply to households and not
apply also to families? The truth is
there should be one central market
for labor, n that both households
and families should deal through this
central market All stealing and
poaching should be cut out.
II we want a cook for a household,
or a foreman for u mill. we should
go to the United States employment
service and get them. If n cook is
not satisfied with her mistress or any
workman is not satisfied with his Job,
he should go to the United States en-
ployment service and ask for another.
WaSeworkerA should be free to
change, n employers should be free
to ofer more money; but these chang
es and offers should be made through
the United States employment service.
