WOMEN IN INDUSTRY.

Charles Cheney, of Cheney Broth.
 CTS, South Manchester. gives womer
 something to think about when he
 says, in opposing the plan of shorter
 working hours for women than for
 men engaged in the same industry,
 that it is a mistake for women to add
 arbitrary handicaps to be surmounted
 by them in their competition for en-
 ployment and compensation.
 Representing the National Associa-
 tion of Manufacturers, MT. Cheney addressed the Women's Industrial Conference in Washington Saturday and men working side by side were parts of the industrial organization and that if women's hours were shorter than mems they would have to account for not only the work they failed to do while, the men were still working, but also for the loss of eff ciency of the organization as whole after they had quit for the day and only part of the plant was left He stated that women should not work at all when not fit to do so but that when they did work they should not dis organize the industrial machine by working only part of the time that machine was running. ets
 It would seem that this begs the matter of women's in- ability, owing to lesser strength, to work as long hours as men. But the women would not care to have this argument advanced. They want to be considered equal to men in ability to produce. They seek equal pay. MT. Cheney's argument is d good one if women are to work side by side with | nen. It would seem, however. that | here is a place for women in indus ny in which they might do their full | ihare without disorganizing the whole | industrial machine when they work he shorter hours which they should ! nave with shorter pay. They | hould not consider themselves com ,etitors of men to the extent of houldering burdens as great as men ire able to carry.

Hotv to Make Pine Cough Syrup at Home
Has no equal for prompt results. Takes but moment to prepare
 and saves you about $2.


 You know that pine is used in nearly all prescriptions and remedies for coughs. The reason is that pine contains several peculiar elements that have remark able effect in soothing and healing the membranes of the throat and chest. Pine is famous for this purpose.
 Pine cough syrups are combinations of pine and syrup. The syrup" part is usually plain sugar syrup.
 To make the best pine cough remedy that money can buy. put 2Ea ounces of Pinex in a pint bottle, and fill up can use clarified molasses, honey. or corn syrue, instead of sugar syrup. Either way, you make a full pint-more than you can buy ready-made for three times the money. It is pure, good and very pleasant-children take it eagerly.
 You can feel this take hold of cough or cold in a way that means business. The cough may be dry, hoarse and tight. or may be persistently loose from the formation of phlegm. The cause IS the same-infamed membranes-and this Pinex and Syrup combination will stop it-usually in 24 hours or less. Splendid, too, for bronchial asthma, hOarseness. or any ordinary throat ailment.
 Pinex is a highly concentrated com pound of genuine Norway pine extract. and is famous the world over for its prompt effect upon coughs.
 Beware of substitutes. Ask. vour druggist for "2h ounces of Pinex" with directions, and don't accept anything else. Guaranteed to give absolute satis- faction or money refunded. The Pinex O., Ft. Wayne, Ind.

 found in the pockets of amold. ragged
 coat belonging 10 one of the patients
 of the Chicago poor house. after the
 mans death. It was sent to lawyer
 who read il before the Chicago Bar association and q resolution was passed ordering II prohated.
 The will disposed of nothing which the poyerty-stricken testator had n right to beaueathe. IL purported to give life's beauties. happiness. joy to children. to lovers. to the old who might find happiness only in memor- les II was will inspired by an appre- citation of the beautiful. great hu- man sympathy. IL breathed senti- ment, gentleness. and yet 1t came from the pen Of one to whom life had evidently been cruel.
 This will" it's history and inspira- ton present the pathetic picture of a life of failure which might have been productive of something beautiful in il world needing now more than ever beautiful things. beautiful thoughts. The hard, practical" person may read this will and laugh or call it rot" Yet the influence 1t gives to many. seeing all that it's creator saw is the sort of influence that surrounds every kindly act and unselfish deed. Even the most practical will admit | that such acts and deeds alone make life possible in many distressing stua- | tions. The man who drew that will died in poor house, "a failure." But he left to the small part of the world which reads his last will and testa- nent something of real value.

REDEEM YOUR STAMPS.

The situation in regard to unre-
 deemed war savings stamps, not only
 in New Britain but all over the coun- try, emphasizes the carelessness of Americans as savers. In New Britain alone $50.ooO of these stamps were bought which have not been re- deemed. Similar amounts are report ed from various places in the country. Postmaster Delaney asks that persons who have failed to redeem their stamps do so at once so that the rec ords may be completed.
 Of course these stamps are not drawing any interest. Interest stopped January first. Money represented by them is lying idle and the government is not selfish in asking that they be redeemed. It would seem that people would not delay in redeeming them if they know just where they are. And this brings up the probable fact that it is likely many hundreds of thousands of dollars will be saved to the government, not only in interest for the time the stamps are held after Interest ceases on them, but also from the loss or destruction of stamps. Where the stamps were registered it is barely possible the owners may some day recover for them provided the government is given absolute proof that the starips have been de- stroyed, but there has been no pro- vision made for such recovery yet. The government is now concerned in having all the outstanding war saw frgs stamps redeemed, and the peo- pie will benefit themselves. as well as aid the government, if they attend to this business matter.

 But it is certain that unless the German government reseinds it's or der to mine owners to refuse to de- liver coal. even in return for payment by the French. there will be less pro- duetion Of coal under French man. agement than there would be were Germany 10 give full cooperation. And even the German government cannot secure full efficiency in the mines without the whole hearted work of the miners. This will not be forthcoming under French manage ment and it is to be doubted if France can furnish the many thousands of | competent engineers, estimated at 50,- | 900, necessary to run the mines.
 Meanwhile Lithuania, which is al- | ready causing trouble, Turkey. Rus sia and even Greece are on the watch, | ready to take advantage of any turn in events that might benefit them. Germany will not officially resist !, Frances advance with the German army although there may be clashes of troops, merely because Germany is not unit and is not ready.

DON'T ASK PERMISSION
U. s. Soldiers Marry German Girls, Then Tell Their Officers About It

Boblenz, Jan. 16. (By Associated ress)--Marry the girl first then ask the commanding officers approval. This seems to be the policy of the American soldiers as the time for their separation from the Rhineland approaches.
 The usual method of procedure in- wolves three ceremonies: the civil and religious rites take place at Luxem- burg. followed by another before the army chaplain if the consent of the superior officers is obtained. There have been 49S such marriages dur ing the occupation and already more than 100 non-commissioned officers and privates have applied for permis- sion to take their brides to the United States aboard the transport St. Mihiel.

MAYOR STILL WANTS
 PUBLIC ARCHITECT
Has Not Abandoned Hope Of Hay
 ing Plan Adopted

l Additional arguments for the hiring of municipal architect is being ad- vanced by Mayor A. M. Paonessa 1T the form Of an answer to a query sent the school board regarding the amount paid for architectural services in connection with the Nathan Hale school on Fremont street. The school board informs him that S18,1S2 was the fee.
 The mayor believes that the city could secure the services of a com potent man for less than one-half this amount on yearly basis. He has the assurance of a competent archi- tect that first class service can be procured for s2,500 a year, plus ac- tual costs, which in no case would run to more than s3,o00, he is certain. With an elaborate school building pro- gram now to be taken up which will call for the construction of one school year for Several years, the mayor is confident that one permanent man could easily take care of the work at big saving to the city.
 Mayors Argument.
 A man working for a salary would be inclined to cut down expenses as closely as possible so as to make good impression, while architects be- ing paid a percentage of actual costs would not be likely to do so, the mayor argues. He questions whether work is now being awarded in com petition, as has been said. The mayor says he is in possession of informa- ton that two school additions were given out to architects without giving others an opportunity to bid on the work.
 May Separate Taxes.
 The charter revision committee be- fore it's adjournment last night voted to allow. the mayor to call another meeting if he desires for action on a proposal to have separate tax and separate budgets for the school board, and it is probable that the matter of a municipal architect will come up at that time.
 It has been decided that the pro- posed revisions to the charter will not come before the council tomorrow night as had been first planned, but
