PROFIT SHARING IN FRANCE
Idea Is More Widely Held in That
Country Than Any Other Part
of the World,

Profit sharing is being widely dis
cussed in England now, in connection
with the nations war activities, and
much consideration is being directed
TO experience in France, where it has
been in operation for 20 years. There
Is in France a society organized for
the purpose Of promoting profit shar-
ing, and this society has been recog-
nized by the government as a public
utility"
In the French proft-sharing plans
generally benefit funds are Instituted
to provide for emergencies in the life
of the workers. Ordinarily workmen
do not receive their share of the profit
in cash, but in the form of a fund,
which goes to purchasing shares in the
business or to old-age pensions.
There are various systems of profit
sharing' in vogue in France. One of
these gives a percentage Of the net
profits over the wages, the manage
ment, and the various benefit funds.
Another bases the percentage on sales
or total business done Still other
| forms base the amount given the work
ers on the dividend rate, the amount
of capital, or as a bonus at the dis
cretion of the employer. Certain com
panies are able to share with their
workers any savings they may make
in the cost of producing goods.

SURELY SOME CRAP SHOOTER
Dusky Stevedore In France Was Rap
idly Getting Rich at Expense of
His Comrades.

They used to shoot some craps in
stevedore company No. -, but they
don't any more. This as q conse-
quence of a stern company order is
sued after a prolonged argument with
the dice which followed the first pay
day on this side.
There was game at every Oppor-
tunity for about week, and then
came lulI. simultaneously with the
lull the men began to turn up shy of
apparel and equipment. Investigation
disclosed that one dusky private with
a pair of dice that behaved particu-
larly well had made q sensational
cleanup.
He had gathered most of the
francs in the company in the first
three days and then started On per
sonal effects. AT the conclusion of
| the series he had nearly enough
francs to finance a war of his own
and more clothes than the SzIply
sergeant, not to speak of 36 sdentifi-
cation tags, seven boxes of &C
pills, a bottle of castor oil, II tow
els, most of the soap in the com
pany and a packing case full of other
articles. At the suggestion of the
captain he returned all of the belong
ings and most of the francs.

FEW SHIPS ARE TOTAL LOSS
Vessels Sunk by Mines or Torpedoes
Patched, Raised and Taken to
Port for Repairs.

Any one who imagines that all the
vessels sunk by enemy U-boats or
mines are left at the bottom of the
sea would be surprised if he could
be told the whole story of ingenuity,
resource and unremitting toll of the
British admiralty salvage corps
Almost as soon as q vessel is sunk
salvage operations are commenced.
Divers are sent down to take accurate
measurements of the size of the hole
made by the torpedo or mine Small
holes are plugged with wood, but large
ones are patched with Standards
patches. These are made of 12-inch
wooden beams, and patch sometimes
weighs as much as 20 tons.
As may be imagined, the size of the
hole varies greatly. In some cases il
has measured 40 feet long by 20 feet
wide, and in one case it has been
! known to be 48 feet long by 25 feet
wide.
When the vessels have been plugged
and patched Sneir cargo removed and
the water ptnnped out of them they
proceed 70 the nearest port where they
| can be permanently repaired.
Several vessels have been torpedo5t
after being relocated and have agail
been successfully raised and takeI
into port.

CHAPTER XVIII.

Perhaps 1t was because they had
seen so many horrors during the past
four-nnd-twenty hours that these
seemed all to have fallen away that
night at staff headquarters. There
was a brief hour of rest after inter-
minable labors, the lines had been held
and the great assault repelled in con-
fusion; for that hour every man seemed
bent upon forgetting the incidents of
war, and something like galety ruled
in the messroom.
All the past seemed very far away to

DoINes OF THE SCOUTS.

The boy scouts of Butte, Mont, dis
tributed literature Throughout the city
instructing the people about the work
of the Y. M. G. A. and asking their
aid.
In Waterbury, Conn, the Rotary
club furnished 60 auto trucks, and 240
boy scouts collected piles of books set
out for the army camps.
McKeesport, Pa, scouts bought
second hand six cylinder auto for the
purpose of teaching the boys some
thing about auto repair.
The scouts of Wolsey, S. D.. aided
an in-alid woman by carrying fuel and
water land doing chores about the
house, and have often wheeled her to
church.
A troop of "a boy scouts have just
made the trip to Washington from
Turtle Greek, Pa, delivering message
to President Wilson from the mayor
of Pittsburgh.
A banquet for their fathers, in
which all the cooking was done by
the scouts, was undertaken by troop
IN IlttSDurgn, Ia.
The Orange, Tex, boy scouts cleared
warehouse site.
The chief good turn of a Brooklyn,
n. Y, troop of scouts was the taking
up of the carpet in the Church house,
which had not been removed for sew
eral years, and cleaning the floor.
When the Red Cross in Ostervi1le,
Mass, decided to give a clam chow
der supper Troop No. 1 of the Boy
Scouts of America did their good turn
by digging the clans.
To encourage people to write to the
boys at the front, the scouts at Shen,
andcah, Iowa, put up booth and sold
! stamped and addressed postcards and
furnished pen and ink.

SCOUTS IN TRANSPORT WORK.

That scouts can be relied upon for
any patriotic duty is shown by this let
ter from the general superintendent
of the United States army transport
service. If there is any place where
the order to "allow only Americans on
guard tonight" should be repeated, it
is on the docks from which our boys
board the ships for France. Here is
the letter to national headquarters
from Lieut.. Col. E. P. Jackson:
Sin reference to telephone conver-
sation regarding boy scouts, I have
two employed in the supplies division,
army transport service, as messen-
gers. Their duties as messengers re-
quire them very often to carry Off
cial documents of a confidential ma
ture from the various government Of
fees, piers, etc. I believe boy scouts
give more satisfactory services, due to
their training, and can be relied upon
to carry out strictly any instructions
given them"

SCOUTS DISPATCH BEARERS

George Creel, chairman of the COM

dressed the following letter to the Boy
Scouts of America in appreciation of
their services as dispatch bearers for
the government:
'Dear Mr.. West-I wish to take this
opportunity to express to you my ap-
probation for the assistance the Boy
Scouts of America have been to the
committee in its work.
s'Public opinion stands recognized as
a vital part of national defense, a
mighty force in national attack. The
strength of our firing line is not in
trench barricade alone, but has it's
source in the morale of the civilian
population from which the fighting
force is drawn.
GAS dispatch bearers the boy scouts
have carried the message of our pres
ident to more than five million homes,
and as result of the postcards en-
closed, the committee has filled near
ly two million requests for pamphlets
on the vital questions of the war.
''The battle for public opinion has
been won. There is no organized dis
loyalty. Individual disloyalty has been
isolated and marked down. We have
unity in the land today unexampled in
the history of this or any other nation

Need for schools Of PoIlteness

Many people laughed when they
read that the London county council
was running a school of politeness"
for walters AS matter of fact, it
would be an admirable thing if as
soon as the war is over, everybody
who is still of teachable age were sent
for a term to a school of politeness.
Few people can doubt that the
standard of manners has fallen during
the war. Coupon systems, food short
ages, overcrowded busses and trans,
and various other circumstances have
added to the irritations of life, to say
nothing of the necessarily strained at
