BELGIAN LACE INDUSTRY.
Its Prosperity Depends on Production
of Hand-AIade Kinds

The manufacture of handmade lace
in Belgium is at a low level just now
because of the smaller number of work
ers. The lace industry has existed in
Belgium for over 400 years, during
which time it has passed through various
phases of prosperity, but the number of
workers has dwindlcd constantly since
1870. There now remain only about 30.
00O lace makers. in contrast with the
5000 before the war. This decrease
of 10000 workers has occurred. espc-
ciaIly since the urmisticc, owing to the
extensive employment of female labor in
factories during the last three years.
Cigar factories. gloye-making, lingerie
and various other small industries have
taken quite few lace makers away
from their original occupation In these
and other industries female labor often
receives six, eight and even 10 francs
for a days work of eight hours, where
as only good lace makers can at present
earn four francs u day. Numerous con-
vents and lay schools give instruction
in lace making, Leigh w. Hunt. secre-
tary to the United States trade cont
mission at Brussels, explains, but these
workers leave the lace industry for more
rcmunerative labor when they approach
the age of s years.
\ serious source of competition for
Belgian handmade lace is imported ma
chine-made lace from Germany, France
and England. German competition in
torchon and Cluny laees is especially
serious, as these two kinds are partic-
uIarly adapted to machine-made imita-
tions. The recent Belgian tariff in
| creases on German products include a
! 30 per cent advance on lace of all kinds.
French and English machine lace imi-
| tates the finer laces, such as Valen-
! cienneS. and. offers excellent Limitations,
| but Belgian manufacturers of the hand
made article state that these limitations
/ do not equal the better quality of real
| lace All bobbin-made lace is more or
| less successfully initiated, but needle
made lace (BruSsels. Venice, rose) has
not vet been well duplicated.
| II is evident that the prosperity OF
the handmade industry depends greatly
on the production of the finer laces that
lcannot be we'll initiated by the machine
made article. and it is precisely for these
! laces that the supply of labor is the
Ileast. The quantity of lace produced al
lpresent is only about half the pre-waI
production, but values having more thar
ltrebled it can safely be said that the
annual production is now in the neigh
borhood of 2J,O00,000 francs. OF thu
Total production about % per cent il
lCluny and torehon, % per cent Nalen
ceinnes and II per cent Venice, Brus
sells, Bruges and Milan. or Flanders
laces form a large portion Of the re
lmainder of the production. ChantIlly l

YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE
SKATING PARTY
Forty from Methodist Church Visit Re

at Hall & FarweI'5.

The young people of the First Metho-

together last evening. when 40 strong
left the church about 80 and went to the
skating rink on the Retreat meadows.
where a skating party was held. In
spite of the fact that the electric lights
were out of order, the event was thor
Oughly enjoyed by every one present. The
presence of SANDY" Daniels with his
lantern facilitated the matter of getting
skates adjusted and keeping them so. Be
cause of the darkness several head-on col
lisons were precipitated, but no serious
damage was done. Practically all in the
party confined themselves to skating on
the hockey rink and left the larger rink
to others. The ice was in excellent con-
dition and the weather could not have
been more favorable for genuinely joy
Gus evening at skating.
After an hour and a half of skating,
Hermann Kuhner. director of recreation
corraled the entire party in the little
covered shack and announced that ar
rangements had been made for a lunch al
Hall & Farwell's Skating togs were
speedily removed, and soon the whole
group moved down the middle of the road
toward Main street. Some were com

wholesome enjoyment, was a complet,
