SHOPS AND THINGS

| SO they have instituted vocational
system in their organization. Every
girl is listed, watched, consulted as
to her job lest there be dissatsfac
ticn and given every opportunity to
find the work she likes best. Once
placed satisfactorily, it has been found
that interest in the occupation will
keep girls where nothing else will hold
them.
AT Macys and at the Charles Will
lam Stores Of Brooklyn, there has
been found an efficacious method to
hold the Grant cmploye. Both firms
are giving bonuses for regular attend
ance at work during the rush months
from October to Christmas. At Mays
the bonus is extended only to the
delivery department. Elsewhere well
Garc organizations keep the bond Of
goodwill between the working force
and the management. One girl has
+ worked up w. S. s. business which
is keeping her on the job. She has
! sold 100000 worth to date.
But the delivery clerks are now
tempted With . bonus of 81 for every
week, providing they stay with Macy's
from October to Christmas.
At the Charles William Stores they
have gone a bit beyond the idea Of
sharing with labor the profits of CO.
operative effort. The bonus system is
intended to put upon the employc a
share of the responsibility Of STABILIZE
ing production. They are asked to
stick to the job, and if they do so
during the fall rush they will receive
sum equal to 10 per cent of their
salaries.
'"The fixed bonus has an appeal"
says Mr.. Eiswa!d, president Of the
stores. at is more alluring than q
regular raise in salary because it Is
harder to attain. And it is popular,
for since we announced our bonus sys-
tenn we are actually hiring more labor
than we did before"
a L last the dark cloud OF the '.f1u'

Health Commissioner, DR.. Royal Cope
land which, overlooking less wcighty
considerations, perceived in such an
airy tribe an accessory which still re-
tanned traces of the protective nature
of clothing.
There is something historic in that.
Though delicate draperies have re
ceived aesthetic justification from the
time OF Salome, through the harcm

it will remain for us to say that We

Good, sound, common sense advice,

WHERE BATHTUB is UNKNOWN
Alaskan Town Should Be Close APP
preach to Paradise for the Az
erage Small Boy.

Etah is the most nOrtherly town in
the world. 1t Yves visited by MacNlil-
Ian, the great Arctic explorer, to whom
we owe good deal for the interesting
information he has given US about the
life of the people in this remote part
of the earth.
AS is the custom of the Indian
squaw, the Eskimo mother of Etah
carries her baby on her back, and
often she has it here while she is at
tending to her household duties. Pos
sibly the youngster on the back of the
cheerful-looking Eskimo mother has
never gone through the process of TAX
ing a bath, for we are told that the
Eskimos have a superstition to the eff
feet that it makes babies cross to
battle them. Explorers tell of babies
several months old that have never
been touched by soap and water.
