Although game breeding in the

there are today more than a million

sportsmen vile are working for bird
and game preservation. says the Amer

bird-house building contest to aid in
this worthy movement. 1t has been
shown that many wild game birds a

SAME JOb,SAMEpA
FOR j. S. WORKERS
Senator Jones Says Reclass-
ifiers Will Make No Sex
Discrimination.

Women in government departments
will get the same salaries as the men
in the same positions, as the result of
the work of the congressional joint COM
mission on Redistribution of salaries.
This assurance from Senator A. A.
Jones. given in reply to a pointed queT-
ton at the conference held with supervi-
sorry heads of the various government
departments and bureaus at the Interior
Department, brought JOY to many wom-
an workers throughout the service.
Equality of wage scale for equal work
will result inherently from the way
the joint commission is conducting its
work, it is pointed out The commits.
sion rs engaged on a Redistribution of
positions in order to get at the reclaSSl-
f1cation of salaries.
In reclassifying the positions the
entire commission. both members and
experts engaged in the work, are
keeping in mind the primary aim of
the whole thing. which is that they
are classifying employees of the gov
eminent of the United States, not de-
partmentS or groups.
The job is the thing. in this case.
and whether it is filled by a man or
woman makes no difference to the
commission. No thought of salaries
or titles enters the mind of the COM
mission workers now
Completion of the classification of
positions is expected by early fall.
and then the work as to salary recon-
mendations will be taken up. The
salary scale will be based on the
amount of work done. and it will
make no difference whether a man or
a woman does the work. Equal work,
equal pay" is to be the motto.

Twice Subject of Citation.
On one of the occasions when this
dog was honored, the French COM
mander of the company at one Of the
outer defenses of Verdun officially
recommended him for a citation. and
another time. Loost was cited by a
colonel and paraded before the CRATE

In all probability, Loost never will
see his native land again. Mr. Nc
Kelvey has a large country place in
northern New York. and there the
war hero will go to live, having moth

than occasionally to drive home the
