be called to establish a proper min

this branch of industry. The patti
tion recites that many of the women
working in laundries are past IN d
die age and have families dependent
upon them for support. The COM
mission is asked to call conference
at an early date, as the present mini

be insufficient to maintain workers in
health and comfort.
Members Of the welfare commits

The petition is the first to be filed
by workers in any branch since the

fixing an SIS minimum for hotel and
restaurant workers was sustained by

THEN CONTINUES JOURNEY

Caught in a terrific wind and rain
storm near Waterbury. Connecticut
recently, H. c. Forth and his Ford
car stopped en- route long enough to
turn over several times before pro-
ceeding ON their journey.
"The velocity of the wind was in
creasing so fast. said Mr.. Fortin. that
I decided to seek shelter. Then with
out the least warning. the wind lifted
the car bodily from the road. at the
same time blowing the top some five
hundred feet into meadow. The
car rolled over and over for a distance
OF about one hundred and sixty feet.
1t stopped right side up. with radia-
tor caved In, bows broken. brackets
bent, tenders broken and bent, and
windshield off at the dash. I found
the seat cushions two hundred feet
away and the tools all over the road.
II inspected the gas tank. oil gauge
and water in radiator, but found that
nothing had happened"

FORD WILL OPEN

STUDENTS WILL BE PAID
School Year Divided Into Study and
Work Periods Alternating
Every Two Weeks.

The Ford Institute of Technology
will be established in Detroit in the
not distant future, according to q
recent announcement made by Henry
Ford. Instead of paying tuition as is
required at most private schools, the
students at the new school will re-
ceive pay while studying. starting
at $40 a week for freshmen, and
higher for advanced students. The
courses will lead to degrees in
mechanical, electrical and chemical
engineering.
Like all Ford ventures, the Ford
Institute presents its own deviation
from customary systems. The school
year is divided into two parts, half Of
the time being spent in class, lee
ture rooms and laboratories, and half
in the shops doing actual work under
actual working conditions. This reg
linen is so divided that the students
work alternates every two weeks.
The reason for this class-to-shop
and shop-to-class method 10 given IN
the school announcement: The Ford
Institute Of Technology proposes to
give that education which is life, df.
rected by purpose. in order that there
need be no period Of adjustment
after graduation. Theoretical work
is supplemented by experience IN
practice, and by contact with actual
conditions in life. Commercial STAN
dards relative to methods and costs
Of manufacture. shop organization,
accuracy, production and time are
stressed.
1.-THE laboratory at the disposal Of
students includes the Highland Park
plant. the tractor plant and blast
furnaces at River Rouge, railroad.
q mine, lumber camp and many
subsidiary operations. Every phase
Of engineering is covered. not By .
meager equipment for denomination
and experimental purposes, but By
millions Of dollars worth of mashiu-
cry, and apparatus-all the iatest
word in scientific Development !
Although the Ford Tsebnteal 1nsd-
tute was announced but short time
ago. more than 1000 applications
have already been received. Every
state in the Union has had it, appn-
cant, and many letters have come
from Canada.

MRS. VAN ETTEN ACCEPTS
THURSTON GUARDIANSHIP
FOR EUROPEAN RELIEF

Mrs. Clara Van Etten. who recent

ma. in the Near East. where she has
been in charge of an Armenian or
phanage, was named last week as
chairman Of the Thurston county re-
lief for starving children in Euro
pean countries which is being con-
Quoted throughout the nation by Her
bert Hoover. State Chairman l.. H.
Burnett Of Tacoma wired Mrs. Van
Etten asking her II she would accept
the post and she consented in view OF
the nature Of the cause.
There are no two ways about It,"
said Mrs. Van Etten. 1--WE must raise
Thurston county's quota Of $500 for
this drive if we let everything else go.
The call of the starving children who
cannot help themselves and whom we
people in America must aid or they
must die. must not fall upon deaf
ears"
Will Expedite Drive.
Mrs. Van Etten states that she in
tends to organize her drive imme-
diately and get things systematized
much after the fashion of war time
Liberty loan drive so as to expedite
the raising of the amount required.
Special representatives are to be
placed In each lodge, society and civic
organization and these representa-
tives are to constitute the nucleus Of
the campaign.
81 know that Olympia and Thurs
ton county people have been milked
dry with charitable appeals and that
we face uphill work seemingly" she
declared. But that is not the point
in this instance. It is Christmas
time. In Europe those helpless chill
dren 3re starving for want of oar
aid. The helpless little ones call to
us. This is not a question Of stretch
ing our charitable resources. it is one
OF saving little lives"
