FLORIDA

Florida and California both have
glorious sunshine. Both have the
richest delights of prodigal Mother
Nature.
But California, as state, doesn't
merely take from its people; it also
gives.
California gives the protection of
good laws. Florida apparently seeks
to be merely a paradise for the rich,
for the spenders, for the proiteers
and spectators.
For example, a workman may be
killed at work in Florida and the an
cient doctrine of assumption of risk
still applies.
There are no laws for compensation
of workmen or their families for in
jury or death in Florida.
1t isn't so long ago that an innocent
man was fogged to death in an un-
speakable turpentine camp in Florida.
Florida puts men in Jail so that its
road gangs shall be filled.
Florida imposes no state income
tax, no state inheritance tax. 1t seeks
to be the taxless haven of the rich.
And withal, Florida basks in golden
sunshine and it's soil gives freely in
an outpouring of fruit and flowers.

creased by only AZ per cent. The
year following materials went on up
to an increase Of 1877 per cent, but
wages climbed to only SO per cent
over pre-war rates. In 1922 the
break between materials and wages
was even, at an increase Of 83 per
cent, and at the end of 1924 wages
stood 9 little over double the wages
of pre-war times and materials at a
little less than double. Now that the
deficit in building is largely recouped,
wages will no doubt follow prices
downward.
Over the entire ten-year period
wages in the building trades advanced
by So per cent, SO the wage Garner has
right to the margin in his favor for
some time in the future. When the
balance is struck he will still be be-
hind, because he fell far behind in
the lean years and only forged ahead
when the period of prosperous build
ing was about to come to its end.
The cost Of things, in abnormal times,
goes on seven-leagued boots while the
average of wages trudges along in
brogans. The workingman pays when
costs rise, and he pays again when
defiation brings less work. In the
first case the increased cost of living
outruns increases in wages, and in
the second he shoulders the loss of
employment.-The Christian Century.

Science Comes to Aid
Labor of Shoueling

Have you ever noticed that the hard
est part of shoveling in tough material
is getting the shovel in? You push and
you bang your anatomy against its
handle, until part, at least, of shovel
full has been bitten off. But it is hard,
killing work, asserts the Scientific
American.
But suppose you had a helper whose
job it was to strike the rear end of the
shovel. All you would have to do
would be to hold the shovel and keep
it pointing where you wanted it to
work.
Such contamination is contained in
a one-man clay digger recently manu-
featured. First, there is pneumatic
tool which does not differ greatly from
the pneumatic riveter This forms the
handle and strikes 500 sharp blows
minute. Then there is the shovel
or spade, very strong and husky-much
more so than a common hand shovel
The air line is flexible hose which at
taches TO the handle end of the spade,
and there is hand trigger to start and
stop the compressed air.
1t does not require an engineer TO see
the potentialities of this combination.
Anyone who has watched a pneumatic
riveter mash riyets into heads in tep
seconds. or a pneumatic chisel wreck.
ing steel work, knows how fast they
eat their way through.
These shovels are not meant for
shoveling coal or sand, but for tough
jobs. For instance, cutting through
frozen ground, tunneling in tough clay
or digging postholes in mean" soil.

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

eide by side on the picture page of
~ one of our Sunday newspaper sup
plements appear two pictures, one of
girl, twenty-one years old, who is only
thirty-six inches tall, and the other
of the biggest man in Europe, who re-
Gently arrived in this country. He is
seven feet and nine inches in height
and weighs three hundred and fifty
pounds.
Probably there have been smaller
people than this little girl three feet
in height, and taller people than this
giant of nearly eight feet. History
records astonishing variations in hui
man beings. The celebrated Tom
Thumb, whom Barnum exhibited all
over the world, was only twenty-one
inches high. Chang, the Chinese giant,
who was another of Barnum's freaks,
was eight feet tall.
Nor are these the limit. History tells
of member of Frederick the Greats
regiment Of giants, who was eight feet
and six inches tall, while Button, the
French naturalist, says he saw man
who was only sixteen inches in height.
What is the difference between these
very little people, who never grow
beyond the size of childhood, and these
giants, who are like the monsters OF
fable? 1t isn't age. 1t isn't the food
they eat, for they have all had much
the same diet as ordinary people. 1t
isn't their surroundings, which are
much the same 1t isn't heredity, that
scapegoat on which we are fond of
unloading all our shortcomings. The
parents of both pygmies and giants are
usually ordinary-sized persons.
What is the difference? Nobody
knows. Yet it must be some difference
in the machinery or working Of their
bodies
Modern scientific study has shown
that each part Of our wonderfully
complex bodies, no matter how small,
has definite work to do, and that we
have normal development and health
only as each part does its work. If
any Of the numerous glands in our
body either overwork or underworld, 1t
affects the entire body.
Some of these glands we know a
good deal about. We know that IL the
gland or its secretions are less than
they should be, the body does not grow
to natural proportions.
Most of the dwarfs one sees on the
streets are persons in whom, in child
hood, the thyroid gland was deficient.
Wonderful changes have been pro-
duced in these "cretins," as they are
called, by feeding them the thyroid
glands of sheep or calves. Giantism
is probably due, in some cases, TO dis
ease of the pituitary body, gland at
the base of the brain. But how TO pre-
vent it or TO cure it no one knows.

GROWING PLANTS BY
ELECTRICITY

THE electrical experts of the West
= inghouse Manufacturing company
have worked out plan by which
fruits, vegetables and flowers can be
grown and developed at will, regard
less of the season. This is done by
system of electric lights which furnish
an artificial substitute for sunlight
This light can be turned on, day or
night, all the year round and the
plants can be kept growing on rainy
or cloudy days, in winter as well as
in spring or summer
Old man Fessler had the same idea
many years ago, although he didn't
know anything about electricity. In
one of his quaint poems, James Whit
comb Riley told Of old Bee" Fessler
down in Posey county, Indiana. Fess-
Ter was not only great authority on
bees, but he was also a thrifty soul.
He hated to see his bees loaf all win
ter, so he boxed his hives and took
them down to Florida in the fall When
he turned the bees loose, they thought
they had slipped up on their calendar
and that it was another spring. So
they went to work as hard as they
could, making honey. In the spring,
Fessler took them back to Indiana,
where they worked al summer, and in
the fall, he shipped them down to
Florida again. In this way he got
twelve months work out of them, in
stead of six.
But afterwhila the bees got tired of
perpetual work. They got confused in
their calculations. Riley says they said
seems like this summer never vi
end" So they went on a strike and
refused TO work al all.
Evidently. the growers of vegetables
by artificial sunlight are wiser than
Fessler. They plan to let their plants
sleep for an hour after shutdown end
then turn the lights on for five hours,
during which time the plants work on
the night shift. Then they turn the
lights off and let the plants sleep until
sunrise.
If this plan is successful. the food
question will. be solved for all parts of
the world where electric light can be
secured. Whether these electrically
grown fruits and vegetables will have
the flavor and nourishing qualities of
those grown by sunlight remains TO be
seen. We know that sunlight is nee
essary for the growth of all living
things. But there may be qualities In
the light from the sun that cannot be
produced artificially. This world has
needed and used light from the sun for
of years and there may be
something in the sunlight that neither
the electrician nor the chemist has yet
discovered.

LUCK
BY THOMAS Ankle CLARK

by F1OWNS An l. SLNftN
TOE MILLER sat on a rickety chair
j in the .'office" of Hicks elevator
dividing his time between whiting a
pine stick and picking the snarls out
, of his ragged unkempt beard. He
was forlorn looking figure. unwashed
and unattractive, his. lips stained
with tobacco juice, and his hands
grimy with dirt. How Joe had kept
soul and body together during his six
ty or more years no one could quite
guess, for he had little property and
he had never been caught working.
Joe really blamed all his indulgence
and misfortune on luck.
Now there's Bill Smithers." Joe

he touches turns to money. He's al

Joe did not remember that Smithers
had been hard worker since he was
boy, that he had saved his money,
that he had educated himself. that he
knew nUre about his particular line
of business than anyone in the coun-
try. What had been won by shrewd
