COURT
KICKS CURIOUS
Young Ladies, Signing
For knowledge, Nib
BILE of Fruit

When several young ladies employ
ed in the vicinity of the court house
expressed themselves a few days ago
as desiring some time to see the
workings of the well-known and just
ly famous lawyers Masolory Court,
arrangements were put on foot by
accommodating lawyer acquaint-
ances to satisfy their curiosity. As
result, the court met in extraordinary
session at the court house Saturday
morning with full attendance of the
bar-and the ladies. With Attorney
W. I. Lane presiding, the young
ladies were promptly hailed before
the court as accused and put on trial.
Miss Clara Moore was charged with
making a sutfragette speech. Miss
Myra Halsteaa was charged with lar
ceny from the person in stealing the
heart of young man. Miss May
Branch was accused of practicing law
without a license and Miss Katherine
Williams, connected with the district
highway engineers office, was charg-
ed with a form of vagrancy, being
associated with an office that had
shown few visible means of support
While the young ladies were being
arraigned, it was decided to broaden
the procedure and prefer charges
against all the bachelor members of
the bar. Gordon Howell was accused
of shimmying Friday night; Lewis
Ellis offense was riding in a fiv-
yer; Robert Lane was charged with
undertaking to organize a baseball
team in Americas; E. A Nisbet was
accused of high crimes and misde-

turn on alternate Sundays.

In many cases the work is far from
continuous, the big furnaces need
ing only general oversight with
strenuous attention to their needs
at only certain intervals. But even
on that basis, the men grow tired
chronically tired. Especially if the
having of a family means going, as
it did for some of my "buddies," for
a year or two without more than one
or two turns off of any kind what
soever.
The same chronic tiredness comes
sometimes from bad living condi-
tions. Even where the hours were
short we would come into the plant
every morning without the energy
we were paid for if we lost sleep
night after night from living one
entire family to a single room, as
did thousands in the district or, as
did, from trying to sleep in a room
through which all the other roomers
passed on their way to the bathroom
together with all the ventilation
from the bathroom.
Whether caused in the plant or in
the home, the resultant state of body
is wasteful even from a dollars and
cents point of view.
No amount of money will get such
men to give. energy to their shovels,
or any kind Of care to their respon-
sibilities. They simply haven't it to
give.
The best that can be done is, often,
to set over such men a foreman who
tries to get action by the use of
rough methods and the most super
heated language-and, usually, the
driven know that along towards early
dawn their driver will himself hide
away for little sleep!

he stands pretty falf cnance OF get
ting a better hearing than even he
may have the courage to expect.
Luckily, in many plants confer
ences are now going on in the eff
fort to discover just how the fur
naces and rolling mills may be kept
going without requiring. such long
hours and also without materially
lessening the earnings of the men
or increasing the cost of steel to the
public.
Luckily, too, more and more cities
as well as more and more employers
are seeing the connection between
good homes and good workmen as
we'll as good citizens-and between
all those and safe and happy
