PROFIT SHARINC PLAN
FOR SHIPBUILDERS

LONDON, April 10 (by Associated
Press) Sir William Crisswell, chair
man of the shipbuilding firm of Will
lam Gray and Company, has inaug-
urated at the plant profit sharing
plan in the hope of bringing the work
ers and the company closer together.
1t differs from any other profit shar-
ing plans in that the total profits &C
cruing from the operation of the bust
ness shall be divided once each year
80 per cent to the company and 20
per cent to the employees.
Included in the plan are all of the
1000 employees, over 81 years of age.
The amount which each employe is to
receive will be figured on the annual
income exclusive of overtime, and
willful loss of time to the extent of
more than - days year will be dis
qualification for a share in the profits
of that year. Allowance will be made
for illness and recognized holidays,
and time lost by reason of lockout,
or general or district strike is not to
be bar to participation in the plan.

the mission by a generous contribu-
ton. The church Is of English archi-
lecture, the plan Of the present priest
in charge and was constructed by Mr..
BARLEY Howard to whom credit is
due for his workmanlike execution of
the plans. The church will be stained
dark brown with a moss green roof
as soon as the frost is gone. The in
terror is fir paneled in oak finish. The
altar piece Is a copy of Reubens
Descent from the Cross, a memorial
to Mrs. George G. Hazelet in loving
recognition of her valuable help and
inspiration in early days, was painted
by and is a gift from the present
priest in charge. Two bronze tablets
mounted on oak will be installed
upon their arrival from the states,
also a memorial to M. J. Heney, who
willed to Bishop Rowe, ten thousand
dollars for the work Of the Episcopal
church among the natives of the in
terror. A rich red carpet covers the
chancel and choir. An indirect light
lag system has been installed, and the
latest heating appliances keep the
chapel comfortable. The handsome
pulpit was made at the shops of the
railroad company. A bronze memorial
bell the gift of a generous friend in
the east is in transit, cathedral chairs
are also on the way and will be In
stalled within short time.
Taken as a whole the new chapel is
a. credit to the people who have SO
generously contributed to make its
construction possible as we'll as to
Bishop Rowe and to the Rev. f. +.
Zeigler and to the town Of Cordova.

DEDICATE EPISCOPAL
CHURCH TOMORROW

The new Episcopal church at Cor
dova, which will be consecrated by
Bishop Rowe on Easter Sunday, is
the outgrowth of ten years of activity
in the local field of the missionary
society of the Episcopal church
During the summer of 1908, Rev. E.
P. Newton, D. D. under authority Of
Bishop Rowe and during construction
days of the Copper River and North
western railway, established the Red
Dragon Club house, designed to pro-
vide social home for those men, who
without family ties in Alaska, had
been called by the lure of the North
and by the hope of gain and adven-
ture and who found the open saloon
and gambling house the only place
where they could meet their fellows.
The Red Dragon was enthusiastically
received by hundreds of men. A pool
table was donated by M. J. Henry, a
piano installed smoking, social card
playing and chess were permitted and
the club house was open seven days
in the week, the only restriction being
that the visitors should conduct them
selves as gentlemen. This was the
first mission of it's kind in the church
and the prestige thereby gained auto
matically and naturally accounts for
the welcome of the church building
today. The wide reputation gained by
the Red Dragon is shown by illus
trated articles in national weekles
such as Golfers, Literary Digest, ETC.
Rev. E. P. Zeigler, the present. priest
in charge, has recently completed his
tenth year at Cordova and to him
great credit is due for the construc'
ton of the church, the outgrowth OF
his ministry. Rev. Zeigler's work has
been varied In early days, when no
suitable buildings were to be had at
construction camps and towns along
the railroad, services were held in
saloons, Footballs and sometimes in
the open air with several hundred in
terested auditors. During the past
year the Red Dragon Club House has
been used as the headquarters for the
Red Cross.
Through the generous donation OF
the people of this section, the new
chapel has been built at an EXPENSE
of over Ave thousand dollars Num-
bered among the contributors to the
building fund are people of all creeds,

ENGLISH FARM HANDS
DEMAND LARGER WAGE

LONDON, March 10 Correspond
ence of the Associated Press) On
the heels of report made by inves-
tigators for the board of agriculture,
taking a rosy view of the farm labor
situation in England, comes a demand
from the National Union of Agricul-
tural Laborers for S. week increase
of the present minimum wages. The
Agricultural Wages Board is endeav-
oring to effect compromise between
the union and the farmers, who refuse
to meet the demand.
An official of the union says the
situation is grave. ~"We-are doubtful
of being able to hold our members if
the negotiations are protracted," he
stated.
A government inquiry into the con-
iitions of their work ION the same
lines and with the same publicity as
the coal inquiry" is urged by the farm
laborers.
The union has called a national
conference to meet next month to
consider the following program:
Forty-four hour week all the year
round.
National minimum wage of $3.50.
Overtime only when absolutely ne
cessary, apart from haymaking time
and harvest.
Overtime paid at time-and-a-half
rate.
Double rates for Sunday work.
Other problems to- be considered
are old-age pensions Of IS week for
laborers so years old, pensions for
widows and children and state owner

She was thinking in the terms OF
wages and toll.
She was going to earn fift thousand
a year some day, but she supposed
that at first she would earn very little
twenty-five dollars a week. perhaps.
For the first time in her existence
she wildly understood how all these
fairy tissues were the products of hui
man labor, paid for with wages and to
be sold for other wages. Pearls were
drops of sweat; perfumes were the
signs of weary men; soft fabrics we're

Bayard was even now racking his
brain to accumulate what three wOm-

So Daphne meditated as she had
never meditated before and might not
often mediate again. She refused to
buy a thing. Her mother could only
explain her mood as a symptom OF an
Illness and advise her to get home to
bed. There was something suspicious
in the condition Of a girl who could
look with qualms of conscience or ap-
petite on such a banquet.

not eaten and the hour was late. She
called for her luncheon and they went
together to a tearoom. Here Daphne

had another attack of eccentricity n
stubborn determination to go home
and send back to Dutilh the wicked
gown that she had bought of him on
credit.
She had left the house without re-
turning it and she was afraid that
there would be difficulties If she de-
layed. Fortunately there had been no
alterations In the gown.
Perhaps there is nc form that satan
takes oftener than that OF a fashion

women the conquest of the world. But
Daphne resisted him and said to Leila !:

period-a period so lengthy that she
wondered If Clay's love would Outlast

She did love him and the thought
of losing him alarmed her more than
the thought of losing the precious
gown.
Leila woke from her meditation with
IA sudden "Come along; we must dress
for the tea-fight."
Mrs. Kip, senior, amused the young
Kips by thinking aloud: II wonder If
that nice Mr.. Duane will be at the
tea"
'Ohl shame shame" cried Leila.
Its a regular intrigue. No. he won't
be there. Telephone him at the Rae
quet club and he'll come to you. He's
usually there"
She did not see the start the artless
hint gave Daphne, who had learned by
accident what she had not known how
to find out otherwise. Daphne con-

the Dutilh gown. She folded 1t up and
laid 1t back in the box as If 1t were q
baby she was about to leave on q door

the lid over 1t and tied it up with a
crazy combination of strings of vari-
Gus sorts.
She refused to go to the tea party,
now that the gown was lost, and she
said she had letters to write.
But when her mother and Leila had
left her she wrote only one letter@
note Of regretful rejection to Dutilh.
She pinned ii to the box and sent IL

that she preferred to see him at her

The adjustment of the connecting

these bearings wear faster than the
others is that they are not fabricated

system described below has given very

Most of the oil delivered to the main

Leila's sobs had stopped now and

seemed to have caught him about the
