Section Men Watch Step.

Section men are known for their
deliberate movements. They never
get In a hurry unless there is some
urgent work to be done. AS long as
they are on the go they are supposed
to be working fast enough.
Track workers on the subway lines
are even more deliberate in their
movements than men employed on
regular railroads Where the old-time
section workers had to look out for
fliers and occasional freight trains,
the subway track men have to be on
the watch for express and local trains
passing every few minutes. In addi-
ton, they've got to have care for
the third rail. In crossing the tracks
every movement Is taken with the
death-dealing current always in mind.
A hurried, reckless step might end
fatally. Probably in no other line Of
work Is efficiency so measured by
slow work.

OPEN FIREPLACE A NUISANCE
Women of Past Generations Consld.
cred the Huge Affairs of Those
Days as Unnecessary.

Nowadays one Of the most eonyinc-
ing proofs that you can give TO the
fact chat your city apartment is of
the highest class and unlike the ordl-
nary is to say that 1t has 'opeu Gre-
place. Even single "opon fire
place" in an apartment is enough to
raise it from the shoddy majority.
And, of course, when we dream of
owning a house in the country most
Of US, nine out of ten of US, think of
an open fireplace as q sine qua non OF
such an abode.
But our grandmothers had no such
opinions of open 1replaces.
Open tireplaces were a real humili.
alton to the woman who had them In
her house so years or more ago. At
least that feeling prevailed in this
country. A small CRATE fire, that held
a few shovels Of coal, was another
matter, but the sort of fireplace where
logs burned across firedOgs was-well,
it was one Of the crudities that most
persons did not like to possess. Yes,
there was time when a Franklin
burner or a drum stove was consid.
cred more Of an ornament to the we'll
furnished drawing room than the
sort of wide-hearthed fireplace that
we covet nowadays.

possessed Of his loved one was a small
photograph, and this lacked much of
the fine animation that had character

Taking the photo Mr.. Hawiey went
to Arthur G. Learned, q rising young
artist. and asked him to make a por.
trait that would recall something OF
the inspiration the girl had been In
her fathers life. The picture was
made and it exceeded the hopes of the
grtef-stricken father. The latter was
so greatful that he became on the clos

Way Up in Old Vermont

There's a smell of maple sugar,
An enhancing steam of sap,
Tho as yet, the world old mater
Holds big snow banks on her
lap.
And the wind strikes thru and
thru us,
AS it Slaps us n the face;
But we can bear the challenge
With good and silent grace.
We can easy bear the burden
OF things we do not want,
Since sugaring is coming
Way up in Old.Vermont.
March winds have howled and
clustered,
To spring---they hold the key,
While the cornet of the blue
bird
Calls up the chicadee.
And here's to recollections
Of childhood's kettle, black,
That held the seething nectar
In bubbling sweetness back,
The smoke pursued and blind
ed us,
But nothing would us daunt,
For we were sugar making
Way up in Old Vermont.

DAVIS DENIES DELAY.
Answers Critics Who Say. Govern
ment Has Been Dilatory.

Replying yesterday to critics Of the
administration. who have accused
government officials of delay in han
ding the coal strike situation. Sec
retary Davis asserts, in letter ad-
dressed to Thomas D. Mullins of Pitts
burgh, that only once before was
there a parallel to the present strike.
others have acted more quickly and
with greater effect in the past in sit
uations such as that which has arisen
in the coal industry" Mr.. Davis said.
The only time in which situation
was anything like parallel to that of
the present was during the Roose-
welt administration, and then it must
be recalled that the strike had been
in progress for twenty-three weeks,
with no signs of relief. Further
more. not only was there a coal fam
inc. but action was not taken until
cold weather had actually arrived. 1t
which now confronts the country. in
the early part of July.
Another mitigating factor in the
present situation was the accumula-
tion, at the beginning Of the strike, of
q surplus supply, 65,000,000 tons of
coal, which Is being supplemented by
a weekly production of 5000, 900 tons.
There is no actual famine and no con-
dition of cold weather confronts US;
and the strike has been in progress
only fifteen weeks. Personally, 1
the crisis has been reached, and that
the Arm stand taken by the President
before any suffering has occurred
will insure that the operation of the
mines at full capacity will be re-
sumed in the near future"

WEEKS ORDERS 5000 TROOPS HELD
READY FOR STRIKE CALL IN TEXAS

Acting on representations from c.
q. Schaff. receiver OF the Missouri,
Kansas ana Texas lines. that the au-
thorities Of Texas are not affording
proper protection to the railroad ter
minal at Denison. in that state. the
Secretary Of War yesterday afternoon
instructed Maj. Gen. John l. Hines,
commanding the sth Army Corps
area. at San Antonio, to prepare a
sufficient force of troops to perform
that service. Receiver Schaff declar-
'ed that the state protection was only
partial and that many of the en-
ployes Of the road had been beaten up
and commerce was being interfere
with by the strikers. United States
marshals were unable to cope with
the situation, the receiver said.
In reply to Mr.. Schaff, Secretary
Weeks suggested that he should de-
mand protection from the Governor
Of Texas, and promised IL that was
not forthcoming the federal govern
ment would take such action as
necessary to afford protection.
In his message to Gen. Hines, the
Secretary said: Receiver Of Mis-
souri,. Kansas and Texas lines, operat-
Ing In Texas. reports that his opera :
tions are being impeded by lawless-
ness and violence. He will appeal to
the Governor of Texas for protection

ment will take action. and you win
prepare q sufficient force for that
purpose. The receiver of the lines
referred to is acting under appoint
ment by United States court"
Gen. Hines has approximately
$4,000 troops under his command in
the Sth Corps Area. There are no fed
eral troops at Denison, but ample
forces Of both mounted and foot
troops are available to meet any sit
uation that may arise, 1t was said at
the War Department. 1t was pointed
out also at the department that Texas
has more than 5000 national guards
men now enrolled in units recognized
and equipped by the federal govern
ment and available to the governor to
back up the peace officers of the state
in preserving order. Secretary Weeks
pointed out that In Kansas, where
Gov. Allen has taken such steps,
there Is no necessity at this time for
federal intervention.
1t was indicated that orders to Gen.
Hines to send troops to Denison would
go forward from Washington imme-
diately should the governor fail to
take what is regarded as adequate
steps to preserve order and keep the
lines in that state in operation. The
case Is held to be Of a particularly
aggravated character because Of the
fact that the roads subjected to the
strike violence reported are under the
Jurisdiction Of federal courts.

miters.
AS the mine, which employs thirty
five men on an open-shop basis. was

arise" he continued
I'VE are suggesting today to the
