 The Misses Howard served their school apprenticeship with MT. and Mrs. W. ]. Jones, in the famous Pineland School for Girls. There Mss Pearl was in charge of the literary department for five years, while Miss Bonnie governed the music depart ment during the same time.
 What care is taken for the girls who attend the institution is shown by the fact that all young men who are bidden to attend any receptions or social affairs must come recom- mended. Their schools or others must vouch for them. This list Is carefully supervised.
 There is also kept on file cata- logues by which the girls can select future colleges they wish to attend.

!. So far as Miss Bonnie and Miss Pearl Howard are concerned. they let God lead. and He sent them to Bir- ,Gingham for the establishment Of
 their girls school.
 Miss Pearl told the story the past
 week.
 "Sisters, we made a pact with each
 other that we wanted to do some z good thing for our time and our gen.
 eration. We felt we had a call to ' establish a school.

 There Is room for 20 boarders, and

 German Films Also
 If British competition seems tho reverse of formidable, that of the Germans Is something to think about. Representatives of English firms. re- gently returned from Europe, declare that Fritz is about to fairly over
 whelm Europe with new films of high quality. The are striving with intelligence and artistry to make pie lures having an International appeal. The first series of historical subjects, in which they are specializing, will be shown in London this fall. One important London exchange has no less than twenty of these in stor- age.
 Miles Mander. F. R. G. S., who knows more about the movie business in Europe than anybody else in London. has just returned from a tour of Ger
 many's Hollywoods. He thinks the German hope of "capturing" the world market Is not extravagant. Labor. thanks to the exchange, is absurdly cheap in Germany so that armies of mechanics-and supers- 1 may be employed. Near Munich, Mander saw film town" big enough to contain several Venetian canals and full sized replicas of the Doges' ! Palace and the Campo San Marco. He saw another Hollywood" a CO., >f h. L. square of Pisa Cleaning tower and alp and a portion of Fleet Street. London. as 1t was 300 years ago. In Berlin a week ago, he saw an army of 1000 supers, all dressed in me- ticulously correct costume, storm an ancient Italian castle. The movie engineers of the Fatherland haven't yet attempted life-sized reproduce ton of the San Francisco earthquake, but. as a discouraged enough pro- ducer said the other day while walk ing in the intending rain, Give them time; if the exchange continues to drop they can do anything"
 Plan Rubber Paving
 It Is typical of the crazy finances of contemporary Europe that it Is cheaper for Germany to stay homo and buy their Leaning Tower or their London street than to pay the rail- road fares of their actors for a jour- ney of a day or two.
 If experiments about to be made by London engineers prove success full, owners of the worlds huge rub- Der surplus will have a far greater market than that now provided by manufacturers of bath tub toys and sling shots. London street Is to be paved with rubber blocks. After heavy traffic has done its. forst for three months. the engineers ana municipal officials will deliver their | verdict.
 The blocks are faced with rubber. | the base being a harder rubber com- l position. It is claimed that they will | last 15 years, and they will. of course. silence practically all traffic noise. As London has no IL" and street cars are rare birds, London | needs only to lay rubber pavement-l and substitute bicycle bells for au- tomobile horns to wholly solve the noise problem. But. alas, the new paving blocks are far more expen- sivs than the material now used.

always floating population of ap- proximately 100000 wage earners out of employment.
 These figures do not include the striking railway employees but apply only to wage earners who have been deprived, temporarily, through no act of their own, of means of liveli- hood.
 Labor Scarcity Expected
 All returns to the department point to coming scarcity of labor. both skilled and unskilled. How soon tho country will experience a labor shortage depends upon several fac tors, labor department officials state chief of which is the unsettled rail situation. When that is adjusted, good times. apparently. have a clear road ahead.
 A shortage of labor before winte-, is expected, however, by many gov ernment officials. These expecta- tions are based on the belief that the rail situation I.ll be adjusted within the next 30 days.
 The year has been featured by thre. of the greatest strikes ever experi- enced in the United States. Two of them have been settled. The work CTS in those two strikes number about 700,000 men. In addition to these strikes. the department has acted as mediator in IFS minor strikes since January 1. The total number of men involved in those strikes is about 5000.
 The task of putting s,50o,ooo men back to work has been accomplished by American industries, the depart ment's figures disclose, with re- duction of not more than five per cent in the rate of wages paid. In other words, the wage cut has aver aged during the past 12 mouths less than five cents on tho dollar. There
