RECORD SEEMS HARD TO SET
Just What May BE Accomplished in
One Working Day Shown to
Be Variable Quantity.

The most difficult task of the coal
commission. says London Answers,
seems to be to discover how much coal
cutting is a fair days work for
collier. 1t appears that in good
place man will cut four tons of
coal in shift, yet the yearly output
of coal per man was only go tons last
year.
1t is rather interesting to glance at
other forms of work, and to see just
how much other toilers do in day.
Take blowing for instance. The man
who, with a single pillow, turns an acre
In day, is well earning his money.
In completing his task he will have
walked and guided the pillow about
fourteen miles.
Harvesting in the old days used to
be slow work, and the man who cut
by hand half an scre of wheat was
doing WELL With the modern horse
cutter and binder one man. with the
assistance Of two "shockers," has been
known to cut and bind twenty acres
Of wheat in one day.
At one time the setting of three hum
dred bricks was considered a days
work for bricklayer. But at piece
work, and using special soft mortar,
man has been known to lay 1.4OO
bricks during an S-hour day and to
continue this average for days on end.
Packing fruit is no easy task. Take
oranges, for instance. These average
$50 ito the box, and each fruit has to
be separately wrapped in paper. Sew
enty boxes is considered very fair
days work, but a man has been known
to pack 100 boxes in 10-hour day. He
had to handle and wrap $4,000 oranges
to accomplish this task.
The work our men did in France
when marching in full kit is far be-
yond that of an ordinary laborer. The
worlds marching record is held by
detachment of the London Rifle
brigade. In April. 1914. these men-62
In number-marched from London to
Brighton, a distance of 50 miles, in IA
hours and % minutes. They were in
full kit, and carried rifles, total
weight of 40 pounds, yet not man
fell out.

According to DR.. S. H. Kirkwright,

I According to DR.. s. H. Kirkwright,
president of the American Bible So
ciety, there were 35,000,000 copies of
the book of God sold in the world
during the last IL months. Of this
number, 6,400,000 were sold by the
society of which he is the head.
DR.. Kirkwright spoke before the M.
E. conference pastors this morning
and gave the ministers these facts. He
said that the Bible has been translated
into and is now being distributed in
$50 living languages. In Russia, par
ticularly in the Ukraine, so hungry
are the people for the word of God, he
said, that they are paying $1O0 each
for Bibles. The speaker urged a
league of all Bible societies of the
world and said that a meeting for the
formation of such an organization
would be held in New York City.
Twenty-six years ago there was
held in Owosso Methodist church a
revival which resulted in 500 conver-
sions and added 3Oepto the member
ship of the church. The evangelist
was E. H. Miller, now of Chicago, who
is still in evangelistic work and who
travelled 1900 miles from western
Manitoba to be present at the confer
ence here.
The conference adopted resolution
adding $3.50 to the budget of the De-
troit area to help bear the expenses
of the two weeks summer course for
young pastors at Albion college.
The Detroit conference, during the
closing hours of it's session Monday
afternoon, adopted resolution intro
duced by DR.. George Elliott of De-
troit, endorsing the peace treaty.
The resolution was adopted after a
great deal of discussion which at times
was heated. Rev. G. A. Fee, of St.
Clair Heights declared that he could
never subscribe to a treaty containing
the Shantung provision and asserted
that in comparison with this interna-
tional robbery, Germany's crimes of
the past were petty larceny.
Another pastor declared that for
the Methodist to endorse the treaty
containing the Shantung clause and
then to send missionaries to China was
inconsistent to say the least.
