VARIETY NEEDED.
A Man Who Il Bored Cannot Work
Efficiently.

A man who Is bored cannot work
! efficiently; moreover, he Is likely, un.
consciously, TO become careless and To
cause accidents. Both inesficiency and
accidents are costly to the employer
and so, aside from any altruistic mo-
tives, progressive managers have found
that it pays to organize their indus
tries 30 that workers do not become
sinduIy weary mentally or physically.
A writer in the Engineering and Min
| ing Journal.Press says that the divi-
sion of each twenty-four hours into
three shifts Of eight hours apiece was
the first logical step toward the miti-
CATION Of industrial fatigue. Soon
after the war broke out in Europe the
American embassy in London was be-
sieged with applicants for advice and
relief The result was chaos---and in
dustriai fatigue. It was Hoover who
took the common-sense attitude; for
he divided the working day into three
shifts of eight hours each, and so
the problem was solved.
Next to the establishment OF ra-
tional period for recreation and rest
comes the necessity of seeing that
the conditions of work are as varied
as possible. This is practicable in
most instances in which the eight
hour shift is in vogue. A regular
change In regard TO the hours of work
is a preventure of industrial fatigue;
it permits time and opportunity for
recreation and leisure and for indul-
gence in hobbies, and this draws at
tention TO question of national i'm
portance.
What does the average worker do
with his spare time, whether he be
laborer, artisan, or salaried official
II is pity that 80 few employers
take an interest in their men in this
respect, for the choice of hobby on
the part of the worker is often indie
alive Of character and efficiency and
desire 10 excel Such change of
occupation may prevent the industrial
fatigue that Is aggravated by idle
ness and lf-commiseration.
Modern industrial conditions are ia
vorable TO the worker. His attitude
depends almost entirely on what he
does in his spare time So long as
libraries are empty Of readers, so
long as ideas and impressions remain
unrecorded and unpublished. 50 long
az gardens remain uncared for. few
other than the overworked multi-mil-
lionaire should complain II Industrial
fatigue.

AMERICAN ENTRANT
WILL FLY LOW
Thereby Honeywell Hopes to Win the
Gordon Bennett Balloon Race
in Europe.

| ST. Louis, Mo-, July l5.--H. E. Hor
eyweli, pilot of the uncle Sam" on
of the three American entrants in til
international balloon race for the Cor
don Bennett cap. starting from Geneva
Switzerland, Aug. 8, hopes to win frs
hcnors by flying as low as possible am
staying in the air longer than othe
entrants, thereby making more dis
lance
Expecting to land in Russia, Captain
Honeywell said his plan Of fight prob
ably would be different from that o.
most of his opponents in the race
which is the fourth international even
he has entered
"Other entrants probably will a,
over the Alps" he continued, "and tbs
altitude necessary to accomplish this
will greatly shorten their time in the
air, and their distance. A balloon which
flies over the Alps cannot stay in the
ak more than "a hours.
" expect TO get out of Switzerland
either through the Rhone valley to the
south or through the Rhine valley on
the north. want TO fly as low as pos.
sible-keeping always below 5000 feet
If / can manage it--and win be able
therefore TO remain in the air perhaps
as long as AZ hours.
IF ! find ii necessary 10 cross any
mountains. may have to rise to $4,000
feet or more, but this | hope to avoid.
II my plans go as ] expect, viii land
in Russia
During his career as ballonist, Hon
eywell declared he has made nearly 800
flights, having participated in more
than score Of races in which he al
ways has ranked high in honors. He
holds many distance and endurance
trophies, and probably has the expert
ence Of flying in more parts Of the
world than any other balloonist.
Probably his most adventurous fight
was in the international race from
Stuttgart, Germany, In 1912 He few
] $50 miles and landed in Russia, 100
miles west Of Moscow. His balloon was
torn to pieces and used for clothing
by the peasants and he was held by
the Russian authorities for almost
week suspected of being a spy. The
American consul effected his release.
Then, again in 1920, he covered more
than 1000 miles winning the American
race from Birmingham. He landed in
Canada.
II Honeywell should be successful In
winning the race from Geneva he will
obtain possession of the Gordon Bar
lett cup, silver trophy, which he re-
aims until the next International race. |
rhe country whose entrant wins has
he privilege of fixing the place and
late of the race for the following year. |
Honeywell is 40 years old and served |
n both the Spanish and the
World wars. He was an official OF a
'alloon manufacturing concern until |
be United States government took |
yer the manufacture Of balloons aud |
he company went out of business. His |
wife and daughter accompanied him to
'eneya to see the start of the race.

CIRCUITS CHALLENGE OPEN.


Paris, July Is. lBy the Associated
Press Eugene Criqui's challenge for
the worlds featherweight title sent
through Paul Rossean, president of
the French boxing federation, is imper-
sonal and directed ito the champion of
the United States, champion of the
world" The impersonal nature of the
challenge is due to the fact that the
French federation is all at sea regard
ing the officially recognized American
champion, owing to the forfeiture of
Johnny Kilbane's title in New York
by the state boxing commission.
M. Eudeline, Criqui's manager, told

 Beginning his business career in Nor- wich as a young man, he left here to en- ter the employ of Swift & Co, and was considered by them as one of their most efficient managers and one of their oldest men in years of service.
 He was married in this city many years ago to Miss Kittie Arnold, who died sew eral years ago. leaving daughter, Mrs E. A Farnell, of Woonsocket. About three years ago he married Er/. Franklin in Brooklyn, N. Y.
 Mir and Mrs Burdick were guests ir this city over the week end last week al the home of MT. and Mrs. C. Edward Smith, as Mrs. Burdick gave her lecture on Alaska in the Central Baptist church last Monday evening.
