IDLE HALF THE TIME

When the railroad brotherhoods
say they can't live on present high
wages someone ought to ask them
why they don't even up the difference
between the cost of living end wages
by working more and loafing less.
The railroad mans trouble is not
low wages, neither is it the high cost
Of living, but rather is it a matter
Of trying to live high while working
less hours than any other class of
labor. Their present wage is higher
by far than the average throughout
the country.
For it is recalled that in their last
national convention the engineers
limited the mileage any engineer
would be permitted to run during a
month TO 1890 for engineers on pas
senger trains and $500 on freight
trains. after which, although this
would mean working only about half
he time. they must stop end loaf
during the remainder Of tho month
This is the crux of the situation and
explains why they are not earning
more-because they refuse to work
like other people.
1t isn't a question of too high
prices or of too low wages. but of
TOO little work and this is a point
and question to be dealt with before
further burdening the public with
higher rates.
And the same applies to many lines
of industry. Increased production IS
the only sure remedy for high cost
of living and increased production
will not come out of the air or with
out work

SIGNS OF HYDROPHOBIA

A dog belonging to George Hine-
man showed signs of hydrophobia.
and Tuesday morning Mr.. Hineman
requested Marshall Stanton to kill
him. which he did. 1t was q dog
which Mr. Hineman thought great
deal of. in fact he would not have
taken 500 for him, but to avoid
any possibility of an outbreak OF
the rabies in this locality he was
willing to sacrifice the dog This
spirit should be manifested by every
one No matter how much one may
think of a pet animal. all the pet
animals in the world are not worth
one child's life.

HAND GRENADE BANKS

Banks of the Twelfth Federal Re-
serve District have ordered 10000
hand grenades which we're ready for
shipment to the American Expedi--
tionary Forces when the armistice
wss signed and which were turned
over TO the Treasury Department for
use as savings banks to stimulate
thrift. The only alteration made in
the hand grenades to convert them
into savings banks was the removal
Of the INT charge and the cutting
Of a slot as coin way.
The Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco, which is handling the dis
tribution of the grenades to the
banks and trust companies. antici-
pates orders aggregating 100000 OF
the war souvenirs. Robert +. Smith.
director of the War Loan organiza-
tion for the Twelfth Federal Reserve
District, said These American
made hand grenades constitute one
of the best souvenirs of the war one
could possibly get Some months age
an eastern firm managed to get some
Of them and disposed of them read
lily at one dollar each.
1t is planned to distribute the
grenade hanks to the public through
banks and trust companies exclusive
ly The only conditions imposed by
the Treasury Department are that Il
gain ownership of a grenade:
Persons l to y years of age mus
purchase one So War Savings Stamp
Persons u to IS must purchase a
least two IS War Savings Stamps
Persons over IS years must bu.
either one 800 or one $1,000 Treas
ury Savings Certificate which is tn
big brother to the War Savings Staml
bearing the same four per cent in
terest compounded quarterly an
running for five years.
Naturally the supply of grenade
is limited" said Director Smith
"Orders for them will be filled in tn
order received and after the suppl
is exhausted. no more will be manu-
factured Eastern banks and trus
companies have asked for hundred
of thousands of them. In all the Wa
Department had only 100000 q
them. "
