WORRIES

Not all worry is preventaDle, but for the most part it can be avoided.
 Most of our fears are never realized and as rule, if we meet our troubles day by day as they come without wor- rying about them before they arrive or freeting over them after they have passed, we will find that We have the strength to rise above them.
 Worry undermines the health to certain extent It really weakens the mental forces by tiring them out by doing nothing.
 Usually the relief from worry rests with the victim of this unfortunate habit himself, but sometimes the real causes are not the ones which seem to explain the condition and we must go deep into our lives or have the as sistance .of those who are skilled in unravelling mental processes.
 In most cases the best antidote for worry is a change of mental occupa- tion, a getting away from the scenes which provoke worry, exercise in the open air a good Dook, pleasant re- creation or a temporary change of oc- cupation.
 Every sufferer from this unfortu- nate condition owes it to himself to discover some simple healthful means of getting away from habit which destructive to health and peace of mind alike.

Labor on Fifteen Dollar Shoes Only
 Ninety Eight Cents, Asserts Worker

WASHINGTON, Nov. Mrs. Cath erine Derry, Toronto, Canada, weighs less than 100 pounds, yet she is here vlgirously representing the 100000 working women of her nation at the International Congress of Working Women. She proves once more that good goods come in small packages.
 And she represents the working wo- men ill reality, for last week she got iii six full shifts at making boots and shoes in a Toronto factory. This week she is exchanging ideas with the femi- nine working leaders from all civiliz- ed nations.
 incidentally, Mrs. Derry knows something of the high cost of shoes.
 They are saying the workers caus- ed shoes to go up" she said. Tt is rot so. At an investigation in Toron- to it was shown that the cost of labor on a pair of $15 shoes was 9S cents. The retailers admitted they got 50 Der cent profit for handling the shoes The jobbers and brokers took even more"
 When Mrs. Derry isn't taking big part in world labor movements she works at a machine making shoe tops to support herself and mother.
