M important work on an in

any publishing house than was Of
fered to the public last week by
e. p. Dutton & Co., in 1.-THE
Twelve-Hour Shift in Industry" It
presents the findings Of the en-
cheering experts who investigated
the question of the length of the
Industrial day for the committee
on. work periods in continuous in
dustry of the Federated Engi-
neering Societies. The book is
wholly the result OF searching for
facts and using those facts in
realistic way.
There is no organization in the
country whose conclusions carry
more weight than, the Federated
Engineering Societies. When it
entered upon the investigation OF
the results of the ''long day" in
continuous process industries it
appointed a committee of eight
prominent engineers representing
Industrial, mining, chemical and
mechanical sections Of the pro-
fession, and this committee di-
vided the field into two parts,
the iron and steel industries and
those Of other kinds.
The study Of the comparative
results Of the eight-heur and the
twelve.hour day in the former
group, and of the technical as
poets Of changing from a two-shift
to a three-shift system was put
into the hands Of Bradley Slough
ton, a metallurgical engineer Of
high authority, who has held sew
eral important posts, while the
task of investigating in similar
way the same questions in other
industries was assigned to Horace
B. Drury, now a member of the
staff of the Institute of Economics.
The reports presented by these
investigators are models Of Jul

number OF these beasts In Africa.
Carl Akeley, who headed the ex-
petition. and an authority, be-
lieves the age limit Of gorillas
corresponds very nearly to that
of man.
They breed undisturbed. but
very slowly. In the specimens
shot. Carl Akely did not find q.
hint Of disease. Their hair was
as soft and pure and as free
from insects as a freshly tubbed
kitten. The young and females
have very black, shaggy fur,
like bears. The males are dis
tinguished by their silver-lined
back.
The gorillas sleep on beds and
not in trees, as do the CHM
panzees.
The Karisimbi forests, where
the gorilla, dwells, are veritable
fairylands, according to the
photographs. Certainly these big
apes display splendid taste In the,
selection Of their homes.
Mr.. Bradley killed the giant
gorilla OF Karisimbi. His first
shot merely wounded the beast,
who made off, leaving a trail Of
crushed greenery and blood that
was easily followed. AS the
gorilla emerged from the bushes
on the slopes above he looked
back over his shaggy shoulder
as the gun crashed again. as If
trying to comprehend this sud-
den assault upon his solitudes.
Here let Mrs. Bradley speak:
"Then he went plunging down
the slope, passing near Herbert
CMr. Bradley, who put in the
finishing shot. The great body
struck against a tree and lay
still. There had been no sound
from him: no bark or roar. He
had shown no instinct to fight;
nothing but the rush Of a wound
ed beast to escape.
1--WE found him dead against
the tree. face down, huge,
shaggy, primeval thing, like
something summoned out Of the
vanished ages. And the scene
in which he lay had beauty
that was like nothing earthly"
After all, the book il nothing
more than a high-grade piece of
travel writing. But Mrs. Bradley
has done good work, despite the
fact that only about one-fifth Of
the book is devoted to actual
gorilla lore.
Her description. of the famous
Victoria Falls, which the natives
picturesquely term Smoke That
Thunders; Lake Jkivu, the most

ton was the first party of

Africa is cheap place in
which to live. Eggs are four

Cinderella. in 'gThe Dim Lam
tern" the latest novel from the
pen Of the popular fiction writer,
Temple Bailey, is Jane Barnes.
She is the twenty-year-oId sister
and housekeeper of her brother at
their modest home in q supurb
OF Washington. IL.
Jane Is fortunate Cinderella In
that she IL twenty, slender as
Florentine page and fairly pretty.
Then she was in love with life.
"She enjoyed good food as she
enjoyed new frock. violets In the
spring, the vista from the west
front OF the Capitol, free verse
and the Book Of Job. There were
really no limits to James enthu-
siasm, and IN place Of the prince
on dashing charger she had two
suitors FOR. her hand, one OF
whom came in q limousine OF dis
tinctive make.
In characteristic Bailey style,
the poor little heroine captures
the heart OF the wealthy Fred
erick Towne despite all the beau
tiful and gorgeously gowned
women who surround the affluent
magnate, while the war shattered
neighbor, Evans Toilette. worships
at her shrine in silence, after one
school boy proposal.
The illness Of James sister takes
her from Washington to Chicago
and brings the question Of mar
rying the rich sutton to Q head.
For money to help the sick sister
and her family, the sick-at-heart
cinderella unwillingly accepts the
hand. that offers money in ex-
change for the love Of youth.
Then Just at the eleventh hOur,
before the wedding bells ring, IN
overheard conversation and an un-
expected check won by the broth
er in a magazine cover contest
make it possible to cancel all
obligations and the rich sutton In

When the clock strikes q ngura-
tive twelve. this Cinderella, clad
in a loose straight frock Of
orange cotton, feeling actual ply
steal freedom in the breaking OF
the bonds, swings along the path
to the little grove and on to the
man she loves. And standing
there, with his head against her
breast, Jane knew that she had
found the best. Marriage was not
a thing Of luxury and soft liv-
ing. of flaming moments, Of wild
emotions. It was a thing OF hard
ness shared, of spirit meeting

And so she lived happily ever

ton is a country where
no bicycle or automobile can
enter, a land tourists sInun?
Where the only means Of travel
Is on foot or mule-back? Where
Mountains were old, very old,
before the Alps and the Andes,
the Rockies and the Himalayas
were nodded into their primal
shapes? And ''as one Climbs
from the river to any OF the main
peaks he passes through the
same floral zones he would en-
counter in travelling from mid
Georgia to Canada?''
Did you realize that in these
mountains dwell a race seldom
heard of before the civil war?
A people more English in speech
than Britons themselves, more
American by blood than any
other part Of America, whose
everyday conversation includes
words Of Chaucerian English, yet
who are so unschooledeas to con-
fuse verbs with nouns? Whose
language is so pure that only
three words of directly foreign
influence may be noted?
These facts and. many other
little-known and amazing truths
are excellently set forth in the
revised edition Of "Our Southern
Hfghlanders" by the sympathetic
author, Horace Kephart.
To the author this people in
the mysterious realms Of the
Southern Appalachians were as
something hidden that called him
to go and find them. So he
writes his experiences in ( terms
of glowing adventure, tells of
hunts for wild animals, camping
trips into the forest primeval, and
gives a comprehensive and at all
times readable discussion of life
among the mountaineers.
The chapters dealing with the
"moonshine land" shed light on
the vital part that whiskey plays
in the lives Of this hidden folk.
''Whiskey," ip the vernacular of
the country, means more TO US
mountaineers than hit does to
folks in town, .whar thar's drug
stores and doctors" Men, women
and children drink whiskey in
family concert. In spite of this, 81

Sparks Her Husband
When He Misbehaves;
Court Approves Plan

DETROIT, Feb. 8.-JoSeph Les
zynski, thirty-one, will behave for
the next year if spankings and the
continual presence in his home of
a probation officer have the proper
effect.
Mrs. Gladys Leszynski, his wife,
proved to Judge Thomas M. Cotter
yesterday that she was capable of
spanking him-had been doing it for
long time-and was instructed by
the court to administer the punish
ment whenever she believed it. nee
essary. She then was made a spe-
cial probation officer for the period
of year, to see that her husband
came home at a reasonable hour,
avoided bad company and conducted
himself as dutiful husband should.
Hell get spanking tonight, if
you say so. I'll spank him every
day." Mrs. Leszynski, flushed with
her new authority told the judge.
The court made no plea for mercy.
