Granted Railroad Employees
To-day by Director
General Hines
TO MEMBERS OF
BROTHERHOODS
New Rates Are Retroactive
Since Jan. L Average
Yearly Increase $3.50

Washington, April ll.-Wage advances
aggregating sos 100000 were ordered to-
day by Director General Hines for AGO..
600 railroad engineers, tiremen trainmen
and conductors in both passenger and
freight service members of the big
-Four" railway brotherhoods retroactive
since Jan. /, 1919. The brotherhood de-
mand for time and Il half pay for over
time was granted only for men engaged
in yard service, and for the others this
question was referred to the railroad
administration board of adjustment
No. |, already created for consideration
of disputes relating TO railway trainmen
or enginemen.
The increases were arranged according
to contemplated schedule, one Of the
aims of which was to restore the wage
relationship existing before the railroads
increase in wages last year. The aver
age advance in pay per man per year
will be about $3.50.
This action practically completed the
war cycle of wage increases granted
railroad men since the government took
over the management of the roads 10
months ago, Only a few minor requests
for more pay remain to be acted upon.
Including to-day's order the aggregate
pay increases allowed by the railroad
administration to the 100000 railroad
employees is at the rate of 1922 81 900 a
year. more than 800 average per man.
Thus the total payroll OF Americas rail-
roads is raised nearly to S3000,O00,000 a
year from the basis of approximately
s., 000,000,000 on Jan. l, 1918, when the
roads passed into the governments
hanaa
m. SOS 100000 aG1ed TO the psyrolls
of members of the big Four brother
hoods brings the total granted this class
of employees in the last three years to
approximately S275,000,000, or approx
imately $500 per man. This takes into
consideration the $l40,000,000 estimated
as the brotherhood's share of the general
wage increase last year and S700O0.0O0
estimated as the fruit for these men
from the Adamson act, which established
basic eight hour day but did not put
into effect the brotherhoods' pleas for
time and a half for overtime
Back pay for work since Jan ] will be
given the brotherhood men as soon as
railway paymasters can work out the
amount due. This may take a month
or even more to complete

A very pleasant evening was spent at
the home of Miss Bernice Davis April s,
when the school children met and gave
their teacher a happy surprise in honor
Of her twentieth birthday. Games, stor-
les, music and eats were the special func-
tions of the evening, with many little
gifts and small sum of money from
the little folks. They all went home at
II o'clock feeling very proud that they,
as children. had been able to keep such
a grand secret, as it is said, "Children

SAGE AND SULPHUR
DARKENS GRAY HAIR
It's Grandmother's Recipe to Restore
Color, Gloss and Attractive
ness

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded,
brings back the natural color and luster
TO the hair when faded, streaked or gray.
Years ago the only way to get this mix
ture was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays, by
asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will
get large bottle of this famous old
recipe, improved by the addition of 9th.
er ingredients, at small cost.
Don't stay gray! Try it No one can
possibly tell that you darkcned your
hair, as it does it so naturally and even
ly. You dampen sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at time; by
morning the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy
and attractive.-Ady.

ssWoman" Pleases Audience
AT Opera House Monday Night

Despite the inclement weather
Monday night, a. full house Witnessed
Maurice Tourneur's Woman" which
is booked for two days at the local
theatres. The picture itself, like all
productions of this character, brought
out a great lesson to both young and
old, and the efforts of Tourneour in
bringing before movie fans a picture
which would present teaching of
morals, has been accomplished in the
presentation Of "Woman". While the
picture is without plot or famous
movie stars, the omission of both has
made little difference, and after one
has witnessed the play it could not
fail to instill into the hearts of men
a greater respect and admiration of
womaxhood.
The scenes throughout the play
were wonderful, each one seeming
more beautiful, and the sunset thrown
upon the canvass in the Garden of
Eden scene, proved the wonderful ac-
complishment of mans effort, and
the development of the motion picture
camera.

The American Red Cross is about
to distribute to the hospitals of the
United States approximately 25,000,-
600 yards Of gauze, such distribution
being based upon data procured and
recommendations made by the Ameri-
can Hospital Association. Inquiries
have already been received from vari-
GUS hospitals as to this possibility of
utilizing the services of Red Cross
workers in making up this material
into surgical dressings. Assisting tha
civil hospitals of the country in this
manner is thoroughly in accord with
the present policies of the Red Cross.
"Chapter will be urged" says re-
port from Lake Division headquarters
of the American Red Cross, to volun-
teer the services of their workers to
supplied by such hospitals into the
surgical dressings, hospital garments,
or hospital supplies.
"By thus offering to hospitals the
service of Red Cross workers the
value of the contribution to be made
will be greatly increased and the Red
Cross will effectively demonstrate its
appreciation of cooperation given dur
ing the stress of war;"
These recommendations made re-
