THE NEW EXPERIMENT

John P. Frey, one Of the most in
fluential leaders Of the American
Federation OF Labor, has been
strongly urging that workers be
given a voice in the determination Of
their industrial fortunes" BY this
he mans giving the employees Of any
concern place on the board OF d.
rectors or other governing body, and
letting them cooperate with the en-
ployers in determining working con-
ditions, wages and the policies Of
the industry in general.
Mr.. Frey was asked whether he
through the organized workers, if
they were taken into the business"
so to speak, and given chance to
examine the books and help run
things, would not take a selfish, one
sided attitude. Would they be will
ing. for example. to abide by the re-
suit Of hard times as we'll as in pros
porous times? Would they accept
cuts in wages, when profits go down,
Just as they would demand raises
when profits went up?"
Y Positively yes" he answered. BY
the very fact OF the employer grant
ing a position OF partnership in in
dustry to his employe, the latter is
given a sense of loyalty which he did
not feel before.
He will stand the gaff as we'll as
the employer. II did not believe
this would not believe in the future
Of America. If the character of any
concerns employees is such, as re-
CARDS intelligence and fairness, that
they will not be good sports alike
in good times and bad times, then
the workers of this country are not
worth bothering about"
Many other labor leaders take the
same position. Their views are said
to be corroborated by the conduct
Of the workmen in various concerns
where such a policy has already been
adopted.
The plan as yet is still new. 1t
has such strong support, however,
from clear-headed thinkers Of all
classes, and is winning its way so
rapidly in practice, that it will soon
be possible to discuss the matter
from the standpoint Of actual ex-
perience.
1t seems quite in keeping with
the American idea Of democracy
and surely will work in America
where the spirit of fair play is 50
strong, II it will work anywhere.
II 1t does work, it may prove tc
be the long-sought solution for the
biggest Of economic problems, end.

ing after the food-Ararat, mean
ine Noah's mountain.
The whole world, according to
the Bible story, was submerged dur
ing the period of the deluge and
Ararat's topmost peak was the first
dry land to appear above the water
for the simple reason that it was the
loftiest-in Armenia, at all events.
AS viewed today it gives a notion
of the depths of the flood, inasmuch
as the peak is more than three miles
above sea level. 1t is dome shaped
and its slopes for 5000 feet from the
top are covered with everla sting
snow and great fields of glittering
ice.
The climb down must have been
rather difficult for Noah and his
family and all the animals disem-
barked from the Ark. As for ascent
to the top, it was formerly believed
to be impossible.-Boston Herald.

Many Have Died.
Only the most rugged among the
refugees managed to get back to
Serbia, according to reports. Many
dropped by the wsyside and died Of
exhaustion and exposure. The Red
Cross mission on its arrival in Us
kub found a large number of the
homeless people in an old Turkish
inn, part of which had been given
over to horses and oxen. FAMILY
belongings were found heaped on
the floor with men, women and chill

and lack Of food, huddled about in
an atmosphere of filth and desola-

first given hot baths and later rub

Red Cross give them fresh clothing.

1T is a JOY to see these unfor-

They stay in the bathroom as long
as possible. After being cleaned
up the families are housed in sep
arate rooms, and given rations of
bread, rice and milk. Mattresses
and blankets are also passed out to
them. After a few days rest they
are started toward their homes |
along the Albanian border. While |
many of these refugees have died of |
starvation, being too far gone when
relief reached them, hundreds have
been saved and conditions which
threatened typhus and smallpox cpl

Town Crier Not --ytinct.

In old days the town crier was a
recognized institution throughout
France. But when the art of print
ting came in, the newspapers drove
the town crier out of business. There
are parts of France, however, where
the town crier still makes his an
nouncements, according to the men,
bers OF A company, 18th engineers.
In an obscure little town where this
unit is camped, there is an old man,
who stands at the main street cor
ner to attract the attention of the
populace when there is news to be
given out. There is no newspaper.
When the armistice was signed the
people of the village learned it from

Lorene twisted the little gold ring

eyes with a tiny handkerchief, but
she did not cry.

by the father to take down all the
