SOUTHERN PREACHERS NAMELY APPEAL TO
COTTON MILL MEN TO IMPROVE CONDITIONS

7-day week which still exists in some
industries; the employment Of women
and children between ID and 16 at
overriding periods of labor; low wage
standards in some industries, with
consequent depressed standards of
living; the general absence Of labor
representation in our factories.
Mill Life Bad.
"Life in a mill village under COM
pany control has generally proved in
recent years, to be unfavorable to
education, and to understanding and
sympathy between the citizens of the
mill village and those Of the larger
community.
eve do not undertake to suggest
the forms which employee representa-
ton in factory government should
take, whether arrangements negoti-
ated with regular unions or forms Of
works councils. But labor is human
and not a commodity. Labor gives
all it has, including capital through
savings, and since labor also has wis
dom, skill and ingenuity to contribute
to the greater productivity Of our
industries, II is desirable and helpful
that it should have proper share in
making and enforcing the regula-
tions."

FROM A GALLERY OF FUTILITIEs.
3. An Indignant Author.

AS Ambrose Smith walked to his Greenwich Village
studio after unsatisfactory-yes even huiliatng
interview with the editor, he soliloquzed somewhat
along these lines:
80 my stories commonplace, are they? What
they need is real plot, is it? What was it you said
I must stop using fictional ciches?
"You asst You idiot just want you to get This
straight Every insult hurled at me hits Conrad and
Kipling and Rex Beach and Sinclair Lewis and score
of others living and dead The story you threw aside
in your offhand way-what it you said about it p
hopelessy uninteresng trite, lacking in dramatic APP
peal Why took it right out of best-selerl It's dra-
matte appeal drawing millions to it in the movies
"You set yourself up as an editor do you? per-
spcacous editor, no doubt You have your fingers on
the pulse of public taste, you think. Why, you can't
even recognize firstclass plot when you it. You've
rejected the leading authors of the day when you could
have had them by paying cent and half word.
Bah! You're no editor
Damn you, plagiarize only the best and the most
successful writers and you dare to cast aspersions

WOLF TRAPPING IN
 NORTHERN CANADA

Wolves are notoriously the most difficult of all animals to E kill or capture and for this reason they are very seldom hunted or trapped except some special in- ducement is offered such as a bounty.
 The Canadian government Is now giving special attention to the eradication of wolves for the protection of the caribou herds which are the main dependence of Indians and Eskimos as well as many white trappers and set tiers for food and clothing.
 The Canadian Dominion gov ernment in 1915 offered a bounty of S20 per head for each wolf killed in the northwest territory, the skin to remain the property of the trapper or hunter. This bounty, however, did not seem to be sufficient inducement to trappers as the number killed did not materially increase, where upon the bounty was increased to $50 on condition that the pelt be surrendered to the Depart ment. This seems to have given a greater impetus to the wolf ex- termination campaign as many more are now being destroyed. In January of this year 946 wolf pelts were sold by the Canadian government for SIS, ,861.
 Alaska is seeking for the con- trol of wolves and other preda- tory species by government hunt CTS similar to the methods pur- sued by the Federal government in the western states. The Ca nadian government has pursued wolf eradication campaigns to some extent in this manner, one expedition of 1923, east of Great Slave Lake having accounted for 320 wolves.

 Todd Browning, author and d. rector of Outside the Law, , jumped into fame when this pie ture was first shown. His big successes, The Unholy Three, . and The Blackbird', in which Chaney is the star, have brought forth a lively discussion among critics throughout the country as to which of these productions is his greatest work. Many review CTS contend that both the direc- tor and the famous character ae- tor achieved their best in Out side the Law"

A Plea for Captive Bears

Is there not something that can be done toalleyiate the sufferings of captive bears, chained up and exploited to attract customers to road stands? While touring in New Hampshire last summer at one place, a baby bear was out in the terrific heat, chained, and running around obviously in great distress.
 At another place a friend of mine told me how a bear had been forced to climb a pole when he was positively in no condition to do so.
 To see these fur-elad animals out in the heat, chained up and with but a little bit of space in which to move, is appalling Can not something be done to abolish this unnecessary cruelty?-Miss Ella B. King of Providence, R. l., in the Christian Science Monitor.
