Nothing doing" said Ann Hubbel.
81 don't Suppose there ever will be
anything doing with me, except dish
washing and making over old clothes"
Ann was woman over thirty, not
pretty, but healthy and wholesome,
with clear gray eyes, large mouth,
too-high cheek bones and plenty of
capable and courageous, but little sad,
disappointed lines were creeping into
her face when she was not smiling
Ann had moments when she would
have liked to throw all the dishes out
of the window and take an AK to the
sewing machine. Probably other wom-
en- have had the same moments, but
all of them have not kept on repress-
ing this inclination for 10 years. Par
TALLY aroused by AIMS desperate tone,
Mrs. Sweet stopped counting the
stitches in her knitting and looked up
In a surprised, bewildered way.
"There are lots of worse things than
DISTINGUISHING" was the trite, oracular
reply.
Yes" assented Ann; 81 suppose
having no food to soil the dishes might
be worse. 1t isn't because l want to
shirk and be idle. It's because 1 want
to do something else, something Of
more account"
Mrs. Sweet looked with a mixture
of curiosity and intolerance at Ann
and asked; "What do you want to
do2"
I'D like to paint, use beautiful col
ors-"
"My land !" broke In the other wom-
an; there amt any money in that"
NO." said Ann, that's just i'll And
worse luck, it takes money TO learn,
before you can earn anything. Then,
too, I've always wanted to plan beau

and lovely colors in the walls and
hnngings."
81 wouldn't have those heavy cur
tains and 'porchers' IN my house, just
catching dust !" Mrs. Sweet broke in
emphatically.
Ann ignored the interruption, being
too full of her subject To halt there.
"I've got TO look at the awful things
In this house, and go on standing 1t,
because l can't afford TO buy anything
else. I've got TO make overalls and
children's rompers because there's Just
enough In It to buy my food and shell
ter. Now, what's the use of spending
your life doing something you hate,
just TO keep your life going?"
This question being so far beyond
Mrs. Sweets comprehension that an
extra stitch was of vastly more inn
portance, she gave all her attention to
her knitting. and Ann, exploding her
pent-up mental gases, went on:

According to the latest statistics of

Cancer, if one or even both of an indi-

that individual is no more likely than
anyone else to die of the same disease.

The daily Nome industrial worker., 1918-01-05

WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. l.
 During the past few years there has been widespread interest in the subject of industrial accidents and thcir prevention, and important safety campaigns have been carried on by many employers and by many private aud public organizations. No doubt these efforts have been successful in reducing the huge toll of death and suffering which mo- dern industry leyies upon its work CTS. But the effectiveness of all such efforts has been seriously han dicapped by the general lack of in- formation regarding the prevalence, causes, and effects of accidents in the industries of the country.
 A recent report of the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U. s. Depart ment of Labor entitled Accidents and accident prevention in machine building" supplies this detailed in
