Mrs. Curtis caught her daughters ex-

at Philip.

said, 81 wouldn't give hang what the

"And, oh, Cousin Jonn." gasped
Katherine. But the doctor was too

Paul Pendlehaven smiled and

I've told her that every day. Go along,

Philip seized her hand to lead her
away, but Tony turned to the bed.
Then she stopped and kissed Paul Pen

mebbe It'll only be half an hour before
I'm back to YOU"
For many minutes after the car
started Philip paid strict attention to
his driving. and Tonnibel allowed her
self the luxury Of taking a sidelong
look at him now and then. Once
within sight Of Beebe Lake, Captain
MacCauley slowed down and stopped

he finished.
Tony closed her eyes. All the IN

that moment like vanished burden.
He had said she was his little girl.

Philip. "And this time-Oh, Tony,

branch of the industry as distin-
guished from printers,

In April, 1919, a joint conference

extend the average life of en-

Last year the average age of

the 21year-old printer, is but 32.17

all American citizens, places the
Expectancy of the average 21-
year-old American at slightly more
than Al years, indicating an aver
age age at death of over 62 years.
Printing craftsmen are therefore
dying about nine years before the
average citizen.
Before the printing trades were

North Dakota People

Washington, March 5.-Sympathy
toward the government and the peo-
pie of North Dakota was expressed
by the conference of trade union

mended to the trade unions of
America the friendly consideration
of a proposed bond issue by that
state.

conference, and asked for assist

gram.
1t was stated that opponents of
these measures had contested then
in the courts, but the state was up
held by the United States supreme
court. Then the banks refused to
float the bond issue.
"The word has gone forth, the
ban has been placed" said the
North Dakota representatives "And

There is no question about the
legality of these bonds. 1t has been

New York, March 9.-To bring

dustry itself must put into effect
Well-tested plans for regulariZing
production, and unemployment in
surance, with resulting accumula-
tion of information, will furnish a

This is the conclusion set forth
by employers, labor representatives
and industrial relations experts in

will be issued this week from the
national headquarters by the Amer

tion.
Other measures advanced as nee
essary in effectively combating m-

gent planning of public works.

detailed explanation of their sys-
tens of unemployment insurance

declare the measures have been a
success in averting suffering and
the breaking up of working forces
during the existing industrial de
preston.
Continuous production throughout
the year is insured by the MasSa-
chusetts concern through plans for
getting advance orders from their
customers, increasing the proper
ton Of non seasonal orders with a
long delivery time, planning stock

"out of season" items and varying
the lines Of stock so as to balance
one demand against another.
Both employers, after several
years experience with voluntary un-
employment insurance funds, re
gard the general adoption of social
insurance against unemployment as
an effective means of providing a
financial stimulus to industry gen
orally to prevent unemployment as
we'll as to relieve distress among
workers and their families due to
unavoidable idleness.
This conclusion of employers is
concurred in by Sidney Hillman.
president of the Amalgamated Cloth
ing Workers of America, who writes
from the viewpoint of American
workers. In demanding unemploy-
