A woman sailing in the Aquitania
recently held the following converse
ton by the aid of man with meg
aphone with her granddaughter on the
quay at Southampton as the vessel
was leaving:
"What have you done with grand
mas spectacles" bawled the man with
the megaphone. "She says you took
them from the piano to play with, and
you are naughty child"
A leather-lunged official on the quay
put his hands to his mouth and an
swered: "She says she gave them
back to you"
"She didn't" came the answer.
"All right" came from the quay ;
"she remembers putting them on the
piano again. She will send them on

"Goodby, Effie!" shouted the mega

"Goodby, grandma !" was the reply.

run to shelter when they see shad-

Horses become helpless at the first

At a fire in a stable last week a
groom tried to cover the horses eyes
with blanket and lead them to
safety. The quivering, shaking ami
mails drew back and refused to bulge,
fighting off their rescuer Alive to the
necessity of getting the animals from
the blazing barn, the groom thought
of a way to quiet them and got down
their harness. AS soon as the horses
felt the accustomed straps and buckles
in place they followed their caretaker
through the smoke and flames, even
where they were singed, to the open
air and freedom.-Portland Oregonian.

WOMEN AND ALCOHOL,

The Literary Digest's straw voit
on the liquor question shows con
Sidcrably more women than men
standing firm in defense of prohibi-
ton.
This is precisely what might have
been expected. Alcohol has never
had the same appeal To women that
il has to men, any more than to-
bacco has had. Drinking has been
essentially mans institution. AT
the same time, the ravages of al
cohol, resulting from excessive drink
ing, have always borne harder on
women than on men.
Women usually have seen the
worst side Of liquor. Not knowing
or caring much about it's peculiar
appeal to the male Of the species,
they have known only too well its
direct effects. mental, moral and
physical, on the men Of their fam
lilies, and its indirect effects OF
hardship and suffering for them
and their children.

better progress might be made on all
railroads. OF the two evils, the
grade crossing is by far the most
menacing.
Railroads put most Of the blame
for crossing accidents on the public,
and perhaps they are right. Auto
mobilists especially are prone TO
carelcssness in driving across tracks,
and the result is toll Of deaths
amounting TO more than 1000 a
year. The ideal remedy, the elm
ination of grade crossings, is enor-
mously slow and expensive, yet al
most invariably pays for itself in
the long run and is therefore to be
pushed with all possible vigor.
Meanwhile a great deal might be
accomplished by both railroads and
motorists through the adoption of
better mechanical safeguards and
the exercise Of more plain human
caution.

APPETITE FOR SCHOOL.

OnG.sOl the most curious io'ioHS
extant Is the tradition that children
do not want TO start TO school in
the fall. Year after year this fall
Lacy comes out i'll newspaper car
toons and paragraphs. and even in
the comment of the parents and
friends OF tho pupils themselves,
who ought TO know better.
Look at the shining eyes and
eager faces OF the children as they
flock TO he schoolhouse on the
opening day. No reluctance there,
and no regret. Listen to their chat
ter, before and after the formal
opening. There is keen interest
and pleasant anticipation, with sell
dom a discordant note. Ask any of
the children at random whether they
are glad school is opening, and if
they give ain honest answer out of
their own hearts, as children usually
do, they will say "Why, of course y

AT the end of the school year,
after a lot of hard work, with hot
weather coming on, the hoys and
girls rejoice to get free. After a
summer of freedom they rejoice no
less 10 get back into the harness
again. 1t is perfectly natural human
process. Stated with work, people
went to play. Stated with play, they
turn TO work again.
In each case, perhaps the real
incentive is desire for change. SO
wise people, natural people, go on
through life, ripening into one
change after another and facing
every new experience with zest as
they become ready for it. Unhappy
people are people in ruts, who keep
on doing the same thing too long
at a time, whether it's working or
lOafing.

LABOR Union STRENGTH.

Random talk Of general strlKe
in support Of the railroad shopmei
has invited comparison OF the
strength OF union and non-uhloh
labor in this country.
According to the last census, there
ore altogether no less than 10000
900 workers, that is, people en-
gagged in .tgainful occupations.
There are known to be about 4,ooo'-
OOO members of labor unions. That
,eaves non-union labor with about
$4,000. 900, or, nearly o to one.
The figures however, are deep
tive. Many millions OF those put
down as ,nom-union workers are
women and children who could not
under any imaginable circumstances
he considered possible competitors OF
union labor or substitutes for it.
A fairer comparison, which includes
persons engaged in manufacturing
or mechanical work and mining,
gives a ratio of four to one against
union labor. But this does not take
in the unorganized agricultural
workers.
Whatever the fractional part OF
the national man-power represented
by the unions, it must be admitted
that if they all quit. by concerted
action. it would tie up American IN
dustry pretty thoroughly. The nom
unio1f workers numerically might
seem ample to replace the strikers
in important industries, but in prac~
tice they could not do it, For most
Of the union labor is skilled or spe-
cialized labor, not readily done by
novices. Besides, millions OF non
union people always hang on the
fringes of unionism, and could be
counted on to support the unions in
Il crisis.
All this, however, is purely
academic As a matter of fact, no
we'll informed person pays serious
attention 10 the general strike
talk, knowing that the men who
control the policy of American labor
unions have more sense than TO at
tempt any such radical stroke and
If they did attempt it, they would
have a big mutiny on their hands.
