THERE ARE 13,eoo UNEMPLOYED
 PERSONS IN CONNECTICUT

Hartford, Conn, May 14.-David Elder, field representative of the United States Employment Service, stated today that according to the es- inmates received from the nine offices throughout the state connected with his department the number of unem- ployed persons in Connecticut at the present time is 13,600 There are more unemployed in Bridgeport than in any other town in the state. The number in that town is given as $500, which Is 100 fewer than the number reported last week. New Haven comes next with 1000 unemployed and Waterbury reports 400. MT. Elder said the labor situation in the state is i'm proving satisfactorily. He said it
 was extremely hard to supply the de- mand for carpenters and painters, particuarly for the latter. The ave- rage pay for unskilled laborers was thirty-sever and one-half cents an hour, which is only little less than it was when the labor market was more affected by the war conditions than it is now The farmers began the spring operations on their farms with the expectation that there would be ans appreciable falling Off in the rate of wages for farm help but they find that their expectations are moi being realized Farm help are paid from S3O to $35 a month and board.

S3,eoo,ooo FOR RELIEF
 IN THE NEAR EAST

New York; May 14.-The largest
 sum ever appropriated for relief in the
 Near East-sS, 600. .00o-was voted here
 today by the executive committee of
 the American Committee for Arnen-
 ian and Syrian Relief at a luncheon
 given by Cleveland H. Dodge. the
 treasurer, at which notable men, in
 cluding Ambassador Elkus. Dr. John
 H. Finley and others told of the wide
 spread desolation and misery throughout Asia Minor.
 One million dollars of the amount will be spent for clothing and sup plies, it was announced, and. in addi-
 tion, the following allotments were
 made: Persia s50e.e00; the Caucasus sS25, 900; Beirut. Cnrfa and Mardin $500, 900; Aleppo $10O.000 and Constan- tinople s650.0 .000 The balance of the ! sum, $225,0e0, will be held in reserve for emergencies.

Washington, May A.--Even in
 America "the greatest builder of the
 past" no feat of construction has
 ever approached that involved in the
 completion in go days of Is canton
 ments for the national army and Is
 tent cities for the national guard, says
 the official war material history
 made public today by the war depart ment. The task involved the erection
 and equipment of 32 cities capable of accommodating 10000 persons each, with all the requisite water, lighting, sewerage, hospital and heating utili- ties and in addition the preparation of the strictly military features. such as parade grounds and rife and artillery ranges.
 The creature comforts enjoyed by the American soldier of 1917 is con- trasted with those afforded the man of '61-'65. Substantial barracks, heat ed by steam or stoves. took the place of tents; chemically pure water re- placed that secured from the casual spring or stream: scientific laundries cared for the national army recruit s clothing, and field bakeries gave him 1 the modern successor to the ashy hoe cake.
 Lumber used in the environments alone the report says, was equivalent l to a board walk F inches wide and one-inch thick ito the moon and half way back" while the na1is Of one pop
 ular size would "girdle the earth 1-2 | times"
 The race between the contractors to
 complete the cantonments in the time l for the initial draft is eloquently de-
 scribed, the builder of Camp Taylor, ai Louisville Ky, winning by a narrow margin. The cantonments occupleo 167,741 acres of land. which cost ar average s393 per acre. and the con | tractors profits were given as less than ? 1-2 per cent. of the gross cost 1 of construction.

FEAT OF CONSTRUCTING ENVIRONMENTS

Expenditures for the cantonments
 represented TO per cent. of the total
 for the Panama canal, but the time consumed was less than 90 days against 10 years for the canal. Supple mentary building projects undertaken by the department aggregated much larger project than the cantonments and included enormous storehouses, | factories for various purposes. proving l grounds, army posts. embarkation fla cilities,, docks, magazines, railroads,
 aviation fields and hospitals.
 l "On November ii, 191s.'' the report says, ''tf,e construction division was conducting 535 operations in 442 local ities involving an expenditure of S1,- 1 000, 100000. ThesS touched every ! state but one"
 1 As the construction crews developed team work, remarkable instances of speed were reported. Precautions l taken to assist the contractors in- cluded the detail of a disbursing off ] cer on the spot with the check book ready so that material could be paid on delivery. and 50 that special equip ment could be obtained at a fair rem l tai and a steady flow of building ma terials be insured. The last feature finally necessitated the sending of the soldiers into the forest to cut logs and piles and to load them on railroad cars
 which were guarded by soldiers tc their destination.
 When a shortage of stoves threat ened the health of the new army. off l cers of the construction division were sent to the factories to speed up pro- l duction with the result that the army obtained 15,000 in 3 months although that number Is 8 years output of the l industry"
 Fire prevention at the various ar my projects was so efficient that the per capita loss was only 46 cents com pared with the civilian rate of s2.42.

not know it by what he expresses? Was it not the manifestation, the ex- pression of the power, the Mind, the Spirit, the Life, the Truth, and the Love, which are altogether good, God that made Jesus the best prepared, the safest, the most efficient, most able or powerful, the most godlike man that ever lived? Did it not make him so godlike that all Christendom has called him God. worshipped him as God? It has done this, too not withstanding the fact that Jesus re- God, but merely good, saying, There is none good but one, that is God He did this because he recognized as no one else ever has, that even all that he manifested of God did not be- gin to express, but only indicated the infinite good that is God. This is shown by the fact that he expected not only the emulation of his example by his followers, but more-'He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father;' because I illustrate the way, and show, as he again said, that the Son can do nothing of him. self, but what he seeth the Father do; for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.'
 This Teaching Scientific
 That this knowledge of God and of man, the knowledge that was taught, illustrated, and demonstrated by Je- sus the Christ, is Christian all will concede. But, it may be asked, is it scientific?
 "This question can be answered, must be answered in one way alone that of demonstration or proof. It was so answered when Jesus did his marvellous works; it was so ans wered when his disciples or students repeated these works; it was so ans wered when, for over two centuries after them, their followers, the early Christians, did these works. It was so answered when Mrs. Eddy, through

This one power then, this one Spirit, Soul, or Mind, this one existence or Life, this one reality or Truth, this one infinite Love, this divine Princi- pie, was all that constituted the Sa- viour who is the same yesterday today, and forever, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turn as God? It has done this too, not just what Christian Science defines God to be, as will be seen from the following passage: God is incorpo- real, divine, supreme, infinite Mind, Spirit, Soul, Principle, Life, Truth, Love Science and Health p. 465).
 Man
 "Not only did Jesus illustrate, not only does Christian Science teach what God is, but in doing this Jesus illustrated and Christian Science teaches what man is.
 <FDoes not the father want the son to be like himself, and does not a son want to be like his father? So true is this, that right in the beginning we read that God created man in his own image. male and female created he them.' In other words, He created them just like Himself. Now, how do we know what a man is like? Do we
