y Ever SINCE the day, now some gen
erations ago, when the country rea-
lized that =. it's advancement was
measured by it's transportation FACT
ities, men have dreamed of q gate
way from the inland states to { the
sea. The question is as old almost as
the search for the historical north
west passage -: <s..=. .:z
Today, after years Of discussion
and study, it has become a national
issue to determine whether the
waterways which lose themselves in
the Atlantic, shall become connected
for navigation purposes and form an
outlet for the products and materis
ais produced by the states west Of
the Allegheny mountains. Practical
men and theorists have studied and
figured and the last of the evidence
is being compiled, preparatory to
final action. 3. :

result of the Great Lakes-St. Law

at, Detroit, July 22-24,: when all the

project through.

Byron makes her Cora in his ia

Modern writers favor her. both

captivating capricious heroine of
many a modern story, the most
memorable example perhaps being
the Cora of Booth Tarkington's
book, 1.-THE Flirt." Poets have new

Hope for Building Trades
Harmonv.

Hope for a permanently better showing in
the building industry is held out because OF
the secent creation Of board Of jurisdictional
award by the United States department. OF Ia
Dor the main duty OF which will be to adjust
difficulties arising between the workers them
selves Ending of much friction and decreas-
ing OF the cost Of large construction enter
prises is predicted when the board gets in op-
Grafton.
What is commonly known as "snowballing."
or disagreements among tradesmen themselves
as to which shall do certain kinds Of work
has been responsible for no less than IS per
cent OF the strikes and Is per cent Of the days
Of idleness in the building business in the past.
This surprising statement is made by Franklin
+. Miller, former director of the division OF
public works and construction Of the depart
ment Of labor, and head OF one Of the big con-
struction concerns Of the country. Only per
cent Of the disputes which have tied up work.
he says have been between employer and en-
ploye. taking the industry as a whole during
a period Of years.
Mr.. Miller, who has been in touch with
the construction industry in this country for
Is years cited the case Of big Chicago hotel
costing millions, the work on which had been
delayed he said, more than year because of
a disagreement between skilled workers as to
who should handle certain DOORS because Of
the preponderance of metal over wood. This
he said was an inevitable consequence OF the
rapid development Of the industry. Analysing
the situation and the building outlook for 1920,
Mr.. Miller said:
The creation of board Of jurisdic-
tional award by the United States depart
ment Of labor, board composed Of
architects, engineers. contractors. mate
rial men and wage earners, promises a
solution of one Of the most difficult labor
problems in the building industry. Asa
result OF it decreased cost OF construc-
ton may be expected. The board Of
jurisdictional award has been formulat-
ed with the full approval Of all interests
concerned, who seem to have entered
into it without reservation.
The labor outlook in the building in
dustry thus promises a condition Of
greater stability during the coming year
because Of the organized dealings be-
tween employers and employees. with full
recognition OF the term. contract and
arbitration principles.

Of the general system that no one can UNI

Just as . certain class Of shoe
merchants has beguiled many
thoughtless people into consulting
the shoe clerk about diseases OF the
feet instead OF seeking the advice
of the physician or orthopedic sur

and hair diseases of which they
know nothing in fact. The clothing
dealers and milliners are rather be-
hind the times; they should estab-
lish branch departments for the
treatment of spinal troubles and

The skin is an organ Of the body,
as much as the liver or lungs, and
as an organ it is subject to those
laws OF health and disease which
govern all OF the organs. 1t is
nourished by the same blood stream
which nourishes the liver and the
brain; it is under the control OF the
same nervous system which con-
trolls the heart; it is vulnerable to
the same germs which frequently
invade other organs OF the body;
its condition, appearance. beauty
and functional activity are each and
all as directly dependent upon the
functional integrity OF the ductless
glands as is the individuals mental
alertness or circulatory efficiency.
All OF this is mere physiology.
