SAFETY DEVICES WOULD
ELIMINATE MANY ACCIDENTS

Nearly three-quarters fthe fatal
elevator accidents that occur could be
prevented if elevators and shaftway
doors were equipped with well-design-
ed interlocking devices, a survey and
study conducted by the Bureau of
Standards of the Department of Com
merce has shown.
A large number Of elevator fatali-
ties occur at the shaft door, either
through an open door which allows a
person to fall down the shaft or it
allows a person to step from NOV
ing car and be crushed between the
car and the door frame. An inter-lock
prevents the shaft door from being
opened except when the car is at rest
in front of the door.
Elevator safety is declared to be
as important as street car safety as
the Bureau of Standards investigators
have found that about as many ride
on elevators as on all the city traction
lines. Postmen messengers, and 9TH
ers reply on them and their safety
devices to large extent.
In providing vertical transportation.
elevators travel long distances each
day and make many stops. For in
stance, an elecator in the Woolworth
building travels about 40 miles Gay
and makes 1000 stops in that time.

"T'he lessons Of the international

The graphic teachings fthe Interna-

Why Etiquette?

COMETIMES. as was the case In
- the court of Louis XIV of France.
etiquette runs away with itself and
becomes ridiculous. In that court it
was a breach of etiquette if any one
but certain nobleman handed the
king his royal undershirt when he
awoke in the morning. Another noble
man held his washbasin. and another
held the taper to the prayer book
when he went through his kingly de-
votions
If We look far enough back in his
tory we could find that even these
absurd regulations had their bass
in matter of convenience. Eli
auette is the lubricating oil that
makes the wheels of society run
smoothly. and when royal etiquette
stipulates that a dozen or SO gray
boards. including the prime minister,
should be present at the birth Of
kings son. you may be sure that that
rule originated SO that later no one
might suggest that the heir TO the
throne was a changcling or an i'm
postor. And the custom or etiquette
goes on after most folk have forgot
ten the "why or whercfore' of il.
In present day American etiquette
constant weeding-out process is TAX

for certain piece of etiquette passes

to convenience or consideration. Take.

Mrs. Charles E. Hughes.
RY MARGARET Il. DOWNING.

BI MARGARE:T II. DOWNING.
When the Federation of Collegiate
AIumnac met in Washington recently,
one of the most active members was
the wife of the Secretary of state,
Mrs. Charles Evans Hughes. The
higher education for woman is one
of. the guiding principles of Mrs
Hughes life. and no duties. however
pressing. can keep her from promot-
ing its interests.
Size was sent to college at the time
when the majority of parents were
only half persuaded that 1t was
good thing to do, some believing that
it made girl bookish and impract-
! cal and added little to her chances fo'
a happy or successful life. She went
first to Wells and then to Wellesley,
where in the latter institution she
took the B. \. degree. 1t is logical
, that Mrs Hughes has been convinced
that tn" more education man or
woman possesses the better the
equipment for all and any duty. From
inc neg INNING OF h'r Hld'tlHdi fNfei'-
ence she tried out her chiidrcn's
minds with a view Of aiding them to
shape their after life.
The wife Of the secretary of State
has several signal achievements,
which may be traced to her influence.
not the least the universal good which
must come from the Shcppard-ToWn-
er maternity bill which made gen.
Gated mothers. The need of such
measure was apparent to Mrs. Hughes
long before the national legislators
acted. She founded the very first free
clinic for working women in New
York city and Albany nearly twenty
years ago. and then, finding that her
prospective clients were diffident and
suspicious she formed body of aids
among women with whom she was
associated. who traced down patients
in need and by kindness and encour-
agement soon had them regular at
, tendants at the dspensary and elm
les.
When the world war began this
clinic doubled and tripled its activi-
! ties and only the municipal authorl-
ties of New York know what it ac-
complished during the influenza cpl
fdemic and for the wives OF absent SOL
diers.
| Mrs. Hughes believes in the most
! practical training for every boy and
! girl in no matter what walk Of life.
| Discussing the British standards with
some friends at the Collcgiate Club
| the other day. she said 50 many of the
! most highly placed men and women
there gave their children not only a
college training. but also a business
| one, and that some of the maids on
| the loftiest plane make their bow to
society after having graduated from
shorthand and typewriting courses
and from thorough instruction in
bookkeeping and expert accounting.
This intensive training has not yet
eached this eide, but she lre1ed ie
would When men and women were
educated all round. in business meth

gentler themes Of learning. it would
