will find its place on many a family

Jessie Hersey's products.
Mrs. Hersey. as all of Maine now
knows, makes potato chips. She also
manufactures marmalade and sailed
nuts. These are much priced de-

they will be used as Christmas
presents. Not only that, but they

dinner and Christmas lunch. for
they have flavor that is unsurpass-
ed and as they are made with the
greatest care from the purest of
products there is genuine pleasure in
eating them.
Mrs. Hersey has been less than two
years in business, yet in that time
she has built UP a business that is
known all over the State. Good
Yankee energy and hard work and a
belief in the quality of her goods
have been responsible for the popu-
larity of her products.

Employees Have Shares

Take that huge institution-the
United States Steel Corporation,
just because demagogues have al
ways connected it with old-time
capitalistic ownership ideas and
many still think of it as great ag-
gregation Of mills and money held
in the hands of Morgan, Gary,
Baker, ct al.
The modern picture, when you look
at it more closely, is quite different.
There are today more employees
holding steel Common" than out
siders.
The enormous financial interest
which the steel corporations mill
workers have in the company is a
fact which seems to have escaped
most of us. over $4,000 steel en-
ployees own nearly 100 million dol
lars worth of Steel Common alone.
When it is realized that the total
number of stockholders of the
United States Steel common stock
number only $4,000, it will be seen
that numerically the employees of the
steel corporation outnumber all out
side stockholders of the company.
The general total of U. S. Steel
common stockholders is actually de-
creasing-but the employee stock
holders are increasing.
The United States Steel Corpora
ton, in all its many plants, has a to-
tai of 100000 employees. Nearly
one fourth, or about 24qc of these
employees are now stockholders: a
total of over $4,000 employees. This
is, actually a conservative figure, as
investigation discloses further that
there are many other employees who
have purchased the corporations
stock from outside sources, but are
not recorded as employee stock
holders. The average number of
shares held by these employee stock
holders is 1879 shares, and these
shares have been held over a period

Silver Polish May Be Unnecessary

That the weekly task of polishing
the household silverware may be
done away with is the hope held out
to housewives by DIR. E. E. Free,
Science Editor of The Forum. This
possibility arises, says DIR. Free,
through the recent development of
methods of electroplating the little
known metal. chromium. on surfaces
of other metals, much as gold is
plated on silver or brass to make the
cheaper varieties of jewelry.
Chromium has been known for
some time but few uses have been
found for it, except as a. minor
constituent of some special kind Of
steel. The perfection of electroplat-
ing processes will open up, DR.. Free
believes, many new and important
uses for the metal A thin film of

Thousands of ''Babes in the
Streets" are found each
year by New York
Police.

THE low, heart-broken sobs OF
1 an exhausted woman, and the
steady tramp, tramp of disraught
man broke the midnight quiet of
the police station. For a day and
half Alice and Jane Paul, the two
little. daughters of the couple, had
been missing-lost somewhere in
the great jungle of the largest city
IN the world.
Half mile away, at the same
hour, Patrolman Mcclure was turn
ing into dimly lighted street where
he saw, stretching away from him
on his right, a long line of newly
constructed and as yet vacant
houses. Could the little girls, wan
dering into one of those houses,
have locked themselves in so that
they could not get out? The idea
flashed through the patrolman's
mind and was acted upon on the
instant.
What the FlashIight Showed
Into one house after the other
went Patrolman Mcclure and the
Waterman on the premises. In the
fifth house Mcclure paused before
a locked closet while the Waterman
fumbled with his keys and finally
swung open the door. The cleo
trio current had not yet been turned
on Room and closet were as dark
as the bottomless PIT. There was
no sound from the black recess be-
fore them.
But when the long finger of light
from the patrolman's fash1ight
probed its way through the closets
cave-like darkness the two search
ers saw still breathing mass in
the far corner. There, clasped in
each others arms, just as they had
cried themselves to sleep, lay Alice
and Jane Paul. Half an hour later
the two children, still dazed with
sleep, and the terror of their long
ordeal, were carried into the police
station in the arms of Patrolman
Mcclure and restored to their par

A Busy Guardian
According to Commissioner En-
right of the New York Police De-
partment, the policeman in New
York and in the other large cities
of the country, has many functions
to perform which are quite aside
from his duties as the maintainer
of law and order. One of the most
important of these functions is the
restoration of lost children to their
homes and parents. The policeman
is the official, even though largely
unrecognized guardian OF all the
children m the city.

ADDS TO ACTIVITIES

The Riverside Laundry of Gardiner
and Hallowell is now more than a
laundry. Up to short time ago, one
thought of this establishment only as
place where clothes could be sent
to be washed and ironed.
But it is much more than that
now, for. with the requirement of a
plant in Hallowell. cleansing and
pressing Of clothes have been added
to the other work done. Dyeing is
also accomplished by up-to date
methods.
August Ochsner. the proprietor of
the Riverside laundry, has a thor
oughly modern and UP to the
minute cleansing plant at Hallowell
and not only are the clothes thor
oughly cleansed but they are disin-

In addition to the family wash
suits, dresses and coats may now be
called for and delivered by the River
side truck and all the needed clean
ing improvements of the family's
wardrobe be cared for in one trip.
Deliveries are made in Gardiner,
