The Wage Bill as drawn up pro-
vldes for an inquiry by a commission
to decide what shall be the minimum
wages for adults and for young per-
sons, the commission to consider the
cost of living. 1t is also provided
that the minimum wage shall be
adequate to meet the increased living
cost.
The bill intended to make As
hours constitute weeks work does
not apply to domestic servants, sea-
men on ocean-going vessels, nor to
employees in positions of trust and
confidence. An inquiry is to be held
regarding the working conditions of
domestic servants and seamen to
determine whether they can be
brought within the scope of the bill.
1t is stated that if the bills are
approved and accepted by the work
ers effected by them, the trade unions
will be asked to aid the government
in organizing a National Industrial
Council to be representative equally
of employers and trade unionists.

Los ANGELES, Aug. 4-Oscar
Lawler, former assistant United
States Attorney-General, who was
seriously burned yesterday in a fire
and bomb explosion which wrecked
his home has a chance of recovery,
his physicians said today. They
seemed certain of the recovery of
Mrs. Lawler, who was badly burned.
The police say the explosion was pro-
badly the result of desire for re-
venge by group of dynamiters
whom Lawler prosecuted some years
ago. The merchants and manufac
turers association has offered a re-
ward for five thousand dollars for the
arrest and conviction of the perpet-
rators.

FAIRBANKS is
PROMOTED TO
!. RANK OF COLONEL
t"'
st. JOhnsbury Man Made
Record in War and Wins
Deserved Advancement

Notice of the promotion to the rank
of Colonel of Lieut. Joseph
Fairbanks Of this town has just beer
received by his family at Brantview
This is the 4th promotion given Col
Fairbanks since he entered the army
two years ago.
One of the first of the st. Johns
bury boys to enter the service Col
Fairbanks left home for the Officers
Training Camp at Madison Barracks,
N. Y, in less than a month from the
time the President declared war. He
received his commission as second
Corps in the summer and was order
cred to Camp Dix but October was
assigned to the Judge Advocate Corps
with the rank of Major and was trans
ferred to Washington. His First
work, under General Crowder in the
office of the Provost Marshal General
concerned the settlement of appeals
to the President from the decision of
the various draft boards throughout
the country. He did important work,
also, in the revision of the question
naire in the shape of promotion to
the rank of lieutenant-colon
When the draft work halted at the
signing of the armistice, Col. Fair
banks asked for his discharge but
was transferred to the office of the
Judge Advocate, General to do some
especial research for General Crow
der. In January of this year his re-
quest for discharge was again set
aside and he was made legal advisor
in the Purchase, Storage and Traf-
fc Division of the War Department,
of which General Goethals was chief
during the war. That his record as
legal advisor was brilliant one is
shown by the fact that in May, Gen
eral Burr, the present Chief, appoint
ed Col. Fairbanks member of the
Board of Contract Adjustment-the
Board authorized by Congress and
the Secretary of War to settle the
many government contracts which at
the time of the armistice were sus-
pended or terminated. The recent
promotion is recognition of his able
work in organization and administra-
tion-work which has earned for him
the highest commentator of his of
fetal superiors.
The many st. Johnsbury friends of
Col. Fairbanks congratulate him on
his distinguished record in war SER
vice.

CARE OF TREES ON ARRIVAL
Make Examination Immediately on Re-
ceipt and See That They Are Free
From Disease.

Examine your trees as soon as they
arrive and see that they are free from
disease and insects. 1t is best to set
them out at once, but if for any reason
this cannot be done, heel them in. To
do this dig trench about one and a
half feet deep and spread the trees
thinly In this trench. Fill with soil,
covering the trees six to ten inches
deeper than they were in the nursery

Barquin & Sealey are decidedly the
milliners to patronize in st. Johns

and experienced buyers. Knowing
the tastes and wants of their patrons
they buy accordingly. They know
instinctively what is best suited for
each Individual purchaser, and their
lady friends say that their judgment
is never at fault. Their notion is
that the hat should fit the lady, not
the lady the hat. The assortment of
ladies' head wear for summer will
suit all fancies and all purses. Every
