THE LABOR SITUATION.

Dillon is by no means in the same
predicament as the large cities Of the
country, where returning soldiers
have to some extent "glutted" the
labor market.
The experiences Of England and
America are identical in this respect
Scarcely anything else could be e1.
pected, as it is impossible to absorb
hundreds Of thousands Of men into
industry within the space of their re.
turning from the battlefields Of Eu-
rope.
We have been doing very well
however. A large percentage Of the
soldiers who have returned to Dillon
for instance, seem to be at work; but
the trouble is that many of the sol,
diers returning are like immigrants
Of the sort who flock to the big cit.
les.
But let 40 one in Dillon overloob
the fact that there is work for all
And for this reason:
Practically every home in the land
is in need of the products of labor
For years there has been curtailed
buying. Everybody knows of some
thing that he wants to buy and is
merely waiting for lower prices.
The immense market of our owr
country. therefore, will in a shor
time take care of the labor energy Of
our returning soldiers. By spring al
will be employed at producing the
things everyone is anxious and ready
to buy.
Our plants are rapidly being chang
ed from a war to a peace basis ant

Y. M. c. A. SECRETARY
H0NORED FOR BRAVERY
Brooklyn Man Is Awarded Croix de
Guerre by Commander of
Polish Forces

Paris, Dec. 11.-"For heroic and un
firing work for the soldiers while un
der fire." Stanley Modra, of 2123 Ca
ton avenue, Brooklyn, Y. M. C. A
secretary, has just received the CroiI
de Guerre from General Haller, com
manderin-chief Of the Polish army
and has been mentioned in the Off
ciap Citations. He is the third Y. M
G.. A. man thus honored for conspicu
GUS bravery.
Modra has been with the Polish
forces continuously since his arrival
in France five months ago, and h%
given many notable exhibitions OF gal
lantry and fidelity to duty. During the
last days of the hostilities he served
with the First division in the Vosges
in charge Of hut in narrow valley
between the first and second line
trenches. From this hut he made triI
after trip, carrying supplies to the mer
at the most advanced posts, and wal
under fire repeatedly.
When the fighting was at its heavi
est Modra and the men associated with
him in Y work continued their minis
trations to the soldiers, serving cocoa
cakes, when the men were in position
to receive them, and cigarettes. Thii
service contributed much to the higl
morale of the troops and won not only
the praise CT the officers but the last
ing gratitude of the men.

AUTOS SHOW THE WAY.

The automobile industry held ii
allowance for nearly two years, is
perking up. 1t is ION high" and with
in a few months the new cars in Dill
lon will tell the story of rejuvenat-'
ed reconstructed industry.
The motor truck industry is espec'
tally showing exceptional signs OF
life. The war has been tremendous
factor in demonstrating the value oi
motor trucks, and their manufactur-
ers pointedly tell us that they are
equally valuable in peace times.
But for a motor truck to give ef-
ficient service requires good high
ways. Consequently the influence OF
motor trucks on the good roads
will be of enormous i'm
portance.
Already plans for extensive high
way improvements are everywhere
being discussed, mostly as method
of taking up the slack in the tenn
porary labor surplus.
1t is impossible to forecast the con-
dition of our highways ten years from
now without being accused Of being
a radical optimSt.

TO THE PATRONS OF
THE DILLON SCHOOLS
Do You Favor the Suggestion Of the
State Superintendent?

With the resumption Of indoor
work again. we have to face the
problem Of making the most Of the
remaining school time. Patrons of
the schools will please read the fol-
lowing comments and suggestions of
State Superintendent Swearingen by
way of preparation the question fol-
lowing. which you are asked to an
swer:
There remains about four months
during which pupils will be in
Schools" said Mr.. Swearingen. II be-
lieve that good reults will be secur-
ed if the recitation period is length
ened. Say a teacher has been giving
20 minutes to a recitation; let her
give 25 minutes or more during the
next four months. or course the
teacher will have to map out her
work to a certain extent for herself,
she knows in what branches her pu-
pills are behind, and she will be able
to stress certain branches in accord
ance with the needs Of her individual
pupils.
MANY schools close at o'clock in
the afternoon. II necessary, let the
schools remain in session until 4
o'clock. These extra two hours will
enable the teacher to make up con-
siderable part Of the lost time, and
do not think that the health of the
pupils will be injured by the longer
session." Mr.. Swearingen said.
"The teacher knows what subjects
in the text are more important than
others, and the important topics
should receive careful treatment
while the less important can be given

SoAnsEHING FOR FISHERMEN

DS,&oa via in a few months pro-
Aace its aansal quota OF fishermen.
Nven tho best OF the local John Wal
tons don't know everything about
fishing, and one thing they should
bear in mind If they would be true
sPsrtsuea.
There are no nerves in a fish's
mouth, therefore he does not feel the
hook when he gets it. But he does
suffer intense pain if allowed to die
outside the water. A real sportsman
will kill a fish after he hooks him,
not let him die-according to the ex-
perts.

that's a difficult proposition. So long

the papers will be filled with human

world "busts up" some enterprising
editors will be able to get out at
least one edition before the final fin

Larson Invites All
Odds Dealers to Meet

What will probably be the largest
dealers assembly brought together by
any one organization during the period
of the show is being arranged by C.
H. Larson, of the Cutting-Larson Com
pany, New York distributors of the
Oldsmobile cars.
1t is the custom of the Cutting-Lar-
son firm to invite its dealers each year
to devote one day of the show to see
ing and learning all they can about the
new models, listening to interesting
practical talks from the engineers, and
then at night to reassemble at a ban
quet as guests of the company. This
year Mr.. Larson is going one better.
He has issued invitations to every Olds-
mobile dealer in the United States to
join the party and share in the useful
knowledge, the exchange of ideas and
the goodfellowship that will be the
order of the day
1t is very seldom that distributing
company makes its invitations country
wide, but Mr.. Larson is enthusiastic
about this years Oldsmobile models
and also wishes to signaize the oc-
casion of his being chairman of the
automobile show.
This years Cutting Larson assembly
and banquet will be held on Wednes-
day, February 5, at Riesenweber's. AS
Mr.. Larson expects not fewer than 500
guests, he has engaged two of the
restaurants largest rooms on the sec
ond floor.

all of US were "resuming" just as hard

were still talking about it in our spare

American business man has, by the

the talk he INDUCES in at that time

just his way of enjoying himself
