nesday was a godsend. not only be- cause 1t made 1t possible for planes equipped with sklds to land safely on the ground as well AS on frozen lakes, but also because 1t provided the first real test of the efficiency of skids.
 "The skids proved themselves gloriousiy. Yesterday and Wednes- day 1t was as though we were land ing our planes on feather beds"
 Lieutenant Ennies c. Whitehead, the engineering officer. said that Private Thomas Rodgers discovery Wednesday definitely ended all trou- ble In starting engines under Arctic conditions, without coddling them in any way.
 Rodgers used hls gloved hand to regulate the mixture which was en- riched by ether.
 We never had been able to prove before that we didn't need to drain our engines at night and use hot water and hot oil in starting them in winter" he said.

'DO NOT SMACKE,'
 IS MANNER GUIDE
Book Three Centuries Old Also
 Warns of Hot Meat

Liverpool, Feb. 20.--Letters and ether documents dealing with man. ners and customs of daily life in the 17th century which came to light recently tend to show that 1t was cus omary in those days for per sons Of quality" to have sets of their own spoons. knives and forks which they took with them when invited out. These papers were of particular interest just at this time to collectors of antiques in connec- ton with an addition made recent. /, to the British Museum. This was the earliest hall marked table fork known, engraved with the crest of Manners and Montagu, 1882. About the same time a silver spoon of identical hallmark and crest was taken to Haddon Hall.
 Mention of such a set is made in the will of Mrs. Katherine Ridge- way dated May 9, 1927, which was among the documents destroyed in fire some time ago at the Four Courts, Dublin. The will says:
 "I bequeath to the Right Honor able the Lord Chancellor my little seller of chrystal bottles item. give and bequeath to my Ladye of Five my guilt spoons with the forks and penknife suitable to it." Mrs. Ridgewayg was widow of George Ridgeway, secretary of the Irish council, and the Lord Chancellor was Adam Lotus, Lord Loftus of Ely.
 Books of etiquette and table man. ners were far from being the prero- gative of the Victorian age, 1t is revealed, as in 1863 there was pub lished In London 8 book entitled 'The Accomplished Lady's Rich Closet of Rarities," in which the fol- lowing rules are laid down:
 "A gentlewoman being at table abroad or at home must observe to keep her body straighte. and lean not by any means upon her elbowes nor by ravenous gesture discover voracious appetite. Take not when you have meate in your mouth; and do not smacke like pig-nor eat speenemeat so hot that tears stand in your eyes.
 Tt Is very uncourtly to drink so large a draught that your breath is almost gone, and you are forced to blow strongly to recover yourself. Throwing down your liquor as into a. funnel Is an action filter for a jug gler than 8 gentlewoman. Tn carv- ing at your own table distribute the best pieces first, and 1t will appear, very decent and comedy to use fork: so touch no meat without it."
 Reference to the fork was of par ticular interest to the museum au- thorities, for those present-day in- dispensable instruments had not then been long introduced, 1t ap- pears.
 Forks were first imported from Italy, and their use in England at the time was considered pedantic and laughable. One writer of the time speaks of silver fork as being used of late by some of our spruce galants." which did not tend to make the fork popular at all among certain sets.

ARMY PLIERS DO
 WELL IN WINTER
Recent Tests Prove Efficiency
 Under Arctic Conditions

Camp Skeel. oscoda, Mich. Feb. 20.--Fliers of the first pursuit group of the United States army air serv- Ice. winged homeward to their Self ridge field base today. their winter air maneuvers ended and, according to Major Thomas c. Lanphier. com manding. a complete success.
 The maneuvers demonstrated, Ma jor Lanphier said this morning as the planes were warming up on the ice of Lake Van Etten for the home- ward flight, that the army air serv- ice can maintain an effective mili- tary campaign under Arctic condi- tons without any recourse to ground transport of any kind and without the aid of any other branch of the nations military establish ment.
 We could carry an attack from Michigan to Alaska as effectively as we launched an attack form Camp skeel over the the Straits of Mack inac Tuesday," Major Lanphier said. We could do this without using any kind of ground transport for moving our supplies and mechanics. It would make no difference to us if every highway and railroad between Self.

 We could carry on this trans continental campaign into the Arc tic with the same equipment we used this week. plus a few moro transport craft. Climatic conditions could not stop us in any way. That we have definitely proved at Camp Skeel."
 Various officers detailed by the chief of the arm yair service to ob- serve special phases of the rnaneuv- CTS commented on the performances of the planes today.
 Lieutenant Alfred Lyons, who studied the transport service said:
 T am fully justified in reporting that our transport service. although 1t comprised airplanes built for oth- CT purposes, functioned 100 per cent all week. and could have con- tinued indefinitely. Our success in obtaining replacement parts is typi- cal. Although Camp skeel Is 200 miles from Selfridge field. we regu- larly obtained the needed parts within three hours after they had been ordered by radio"
 Lieutenant Sam Lewis who acted as radio officer. also reported 100 per cent performance for the week. although the radio equipment fur nished by the government could serve a radius of only forty miles. The radio used actually functioned on radius ranging from 200 to 400 miles. It was improvised by Lieu tenant Ellis and his detachment.
 Captain T. E. Tillinghast, who act ed as operations officer. said:
 "The fact that every airplane in the expedition was in the air on the last day of the rnaneuvers speaks for itself. The snow that fell We'd

A re- port has been received from Princess Royal Island. on the northwestern British Columbian coast, that bears of the same species are at large there. Smaller than polar bears, they have a limited habitat and, owing to the isolated and rugged character of the islands, 1t is almost impossible to capture the animals alive.

BOSTON, Mass. - The national
board Of jurisdictional awards in
which building trades unions and

Among disputed points to be settled

common laborers or skilled workmen;
what craftsmen have exclusive right
of cutting chases, channels and open

CONSTITUTION OF
ALTO, USED TO
BREAK STRIKES
So T extile Workers
Change it

FALL RIVER, Mass Constitu-
tional red tape that made the calling
of strikes difficult has been unwound
by the Fall River Textile Council of
local unions affiliated with the Ameri-
can Federation of Textile Operatives,
Independent.
The constitution now permits all de-
partments Of a mill to be called out
in support Of strike in any one de-
partment at the order Of the emerg-
enoy committee, consisting of the
secretaries Of the affiliated locals.
And a general strike Of all mills in
the town may be called by a two
thirds vote Of all the members voting.
Formerly two-thirds of the unions
had to sanction a general strike. Thus
the will of the larger unions, having
more than two-thirds of all unionists
affiliated with the council, could be
thwarted by a minority of small
unions, having relatively few men,
bers.
1t is expected that the New Bed
ford council may follow suit. In that
neighboring cotton city last winter a
general strike against the 10 per cent
cut was prevented by the constitution.
Tho more than two-thirds Of all union
lists voting supported the general
strike idea they were negatived by
the failure of enuf Of the smaller
unions to ratify.
The weavers, largest organized
body, voted four to one for the strike,
for example but they and the other
pro-strike unions were blocked by
small craft groups.

FIRE CARPENTER
AFTER ATTACK
BY BOSS JENSEN
Left Winger Punished
For Defending Self.

w. S. Nilsson, progressive carpenter,
who was attacked by Harry Jensen.
president of the carpenters district
countil, on May IS, was discharged
from his job with William Morris and
Son, an inside carpenter firm, when
he went to draw his pay on Saturday.
Milson, member of Local No. 1867,
was distributing circulars at Wicker
Park Hall, advertising the candidate
opposed to Jensen in the carpenters
election for district council, when the
reactionary boss" of the local car
penters struck Nilsson with his fist.
Nilsson declares it is very signi-
ficant that he was fired shortly
following Jensen's attack on him.
When asked why he had dis
charged Nilsson. Louis Hansen, the
foreman replied that 81 had orders
from the ONCE" Milson could get no
other information as to why he was
thrown into the ranks Of the unem-
ployed.
Progressive carpenters are asking
whether the incident shows a connec-
tion between the bosses and Harry
Jensen, Gear Hutcheson's lieutenant
in the attack on the left wing.
