sTEINKE Is CHALLENGER

After Lewis had taken two out OF
three falls from Stecher in st. Louis,
the Stranger and his manager asked
the press to make it clear that Lewis
had not resigned the heavyweight
championship but that he had sue
cessfully defended the championship
The old familiar tune was then
sung that Lewis would meet all the
challengers in turn and that old and
equally familiar melody was repeated
when Steinke walked up with forfeit
money and a challenge.

won't monkey with set-ups,'' Steinke

The failure of the st. Louis contest
to produce recognized and accept

of the public to become aroused in

Curley again if it is to get out OF the

One charming feature of the St
Louis contest was the intentness with
which the occupants of the press

the contestants to see if they were
really rasslin' or just in there putin

auctions follow hard on the heels

great attention.

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DR.. c. "A. Z. Reed

VOU may be engaged ~ .
i worker in some industry. II
so, you are interested in main
tanning q wage-earning efficiency.
You are entitled to, and have q
right to demand, conditions con.
ducive TO health upon which all
human efficiency primarily de-
ponds. You should know, there
fore, what abundant experience
shows to be true, namely, that
depends, among other things,
protective devices against injury
or infection, facilities for relaxa-
ton, first aid in the event Of ac-
cidents, medical service including
a general clinic. care Of GONZALES
cents and a wholesome canteen
service.
The sanitary conveniences in.
Guiding wash rooms and toilets
must be closely supervised and
maintained above reproach. Many
large firms pay an attendant who
is responsible for providing a con-
slant and readily available sup
ply of clean towels, soap and
other toilet necessities.
Many firms. especially those In
hazardous industries, provide
their employees with protective
clothing, such az overalls, which
are necessary when they are do.
ing dusty or dirty work; goggles
to protect their eyes and gloves
to protect their hands. The health
supervisor is responsible for the
issue and upkeep of these articles.
Some factories have their own
laundries where overalls, can
teen linen, etc, are washed, and
the health supervisor should have
control OF the laundry staff.
In cooperation with the fore
man this supervising can often
make useful suggestions to insure
protection from machinery and the
fitting of safety devices. When
an accident occurs he should al
ways be consulted to enable him to
devise a method of preventing it
from happening again.
Workers should have seats pro-
vided for them wherever it is pos
sible, and when these are properly
designed and used they reduce
fatigue very considerably and add
to efficiency.
The function of a rest room Is
to provide a place where employees
who fall i'll or have an accident at
work can recuperate for an hour
or two instead of having to go
home and lose whole days work.
Many accidents cause a consider
able shock, for which rest and
quiet are essential, to avoid the
after-effects. which may mean the
loss Of much time.
Cloak rooms should be well
aired and provide facilities for dry
ing and changing oVeralls. Each
employe should have his own
locker or peg and shelf for his per-
sonal possessions and outdoor
clothes.
Provision for first aid and treat.
nent of illnesses Is now compul.
sorry by law, but many factories
have found that well-equipped
surgery, with a trained nurse or
qualified attendant in charge, pays
for itself handsomely in prevent
ing the loss of time and in saving
compensation.
The nurse who should be under
the health superintendent, Is re.
sponsible for equipment and main.
tenance and for the restocking OF
all first aid boxes. and for refer

Twenty years OF bitter judging,

She, too, felt that she had cheated

by the events which have gone to
