Up TO the revolution our factory
was q small shop Of about 500 work
ers, working With out-ot date ma
cllinery. Tho workers worked II
hours a day, for which they received
one rouble. At the beginning of the
var this factory was changed to a,
naunition factory. a special depart
rnent was built to manufacture bu1-
lets.
When the revolution broke out the
most active workers went to the front
To fight our enemies and only 200
workers remained on the job, In
1882 the factory started TO work full
force, The machinery for producing
bullets wss thrown out and a trans
mission department was installed for
producing transmission for our shops
and factories. We have completed
new buildings In one of those build
tngs we are now producing machines
that we're never produced before, such
as machines for our lumber industry.
At present 1000 workers are EN-
ployed lin 1920 only 2oo). In other
words 20 times over. This year we
are completing a new section where
a thousand more workers will be en-
pleyed,

We work seven hours a day. -Four
days we work and on the fifth we
rest We have built q dining room

have built nurseries for the children
of our women workers who bring the
children there in the mornings and
take them home after work. Women
workers work under the same con-
ditions and receive the same pay as
the men We have a factory school
for children which has 1000 children.
The children get hot breakfasts.

The committee announces it win

count Of the terrific overhead. There
are upwards Of 1900 Investigators
and office officials ON the payroll OF
this new swindle.
The bureau claims that it. will not
be guided In distribution by political
considerations, but the stations are
grouped in wards so that they come
directly under the influence Of the
Tanmany district leaders. II is plair

BY Helen Rowland.

Love is the only thing that
will keep a mans nose to the
grindstone, and at the same
time keep him happy and hope
full, instead Of breaking his
spirit.
Love is the magic veil that
enables a woman to see the
dashing wooer of her courting
days in the strange creature
in a faded dressing gown, who
is making faces at the looking
glass through a cloud of shaw
ing lather.
Love is the only Sorcery that
will enable a man to perceive
the eternal feminine charm in
a woman who is squirting at
the mirror through a veil of
cleansing cream as she ruoS
the mascara off her eyelashes.
Love is the only thing that
makes it possible for two"people
to sit opposite each other ct
the breakfast table every morn
ing, without yearning to drop
ground glass in each others
coffee cup.
Love is the only thing that
makes your work a joy and
an inspiration, instead of drudg-
cry, your ambitions worth stliv-
ing for, and your successes and
achievements worth while.
You may marry for money,
for adventure, for expedience
Or just for a change. But
If you marry for LOVE. and
don't GET it. you've simply
been taken for a ride"

There is one definite proper
treatment to be used to resus-
citate a drowned person. There
are a great many wrong and
unnecessary things to do, and
they are usually the ones that
are done. Every persons educa-
ton should include a knowledge
Of the one proper indispensable
procedure to carry out.
The first thing to do is to
get the patient started breath
ing. Do not do anything else
first. Don't try to get the
water out Of his lungs or
stomach by rolling him on a
barrel. Don't try to get him
warm. Don't try to loosen the
clothes if he has any on. Get
him to breathing. And don't
stop trying for at least four
hours. Don't give a drowned
person up for dead until you
have worked on him as long as
that.
The dangerous and fatal fea-
ture in drowning is paralysis Of
respiration. This is a nervous
reflex, apparently, and is not
related either to the amount
Of water inhaled or the length
Of time the person has been in
the water.
There is one good and sew
eral less good methods of start
ing breathing by artificial respi-
ration. The one recommended

Love and the Law

Love and the Law
A man cannot obtain an an
nulment Of marriage just be-
cause a woman married him
under false pretenses, according
to the latest Supreme Court
decision. That is, not if those
false pretenses" consisted in
merely pretending that she
LOVED him, when she didn't.
OF course, if she had de-
ceived him about her age or
her past or her race or some
thing really important, it would
have been different. But just a
little thing like love! What's
THAT-to the judicial mind?
And yet, the man or woman
who marries for LOVE, and
doesn't get it, is the most
cruelty cheated person in the
world. Because, in these days
Of good jobs for women, and
bachelor flats for men, love is
about the only thing to marry
for.
Love is the only thing in the
world that makes it possible for
two human beings to find any
Joy in facing the struggles and
vicissitudes of life together.
Love is the only thing that
enables a woman to put up
with a mans moods, demands
and grouches, overlook his con-
ceit, bear with his tardiness
and idiosyncrasies. and listen
to his alibis, without feeling
her nerves snap.
Love is the only thing that
gives a man the strength to
stand woman's nerves, endure
her smothering, overlook her
capriciouSneSs, cater to her van
ity, listen to her chatter and
forgive her weaknesses, without
losing his mental balance.
Love is the only thing that
will make serving three meals
a day, washing the dishes and
counting the laundry a joy, in
stead of a sentence at hard
labor.

prone pressure method.
This is the way to do it:
Stretch the patient face
down on the ground. Stretch
the legs out. Stretch the right
arm out straight up past the
head. Bend the left arm so
that the patients forehead or
cheek rests on it. This raises
the mouth and nose off the
ground and allows air to get
in. The fact that the patient
is face down is better than on
the back, because the tongue
will not fall into the back of
the throat and obstruct breath
ing.
Sit astraddle the patients S
bVttocks, facing toward his
head. Put, your two palms on
each side Of his chest and bear
down, squeezing all the breath
out of his lungs. Maintain this
while you count three. Then
snap your hands off the chest,
when it will expand, drawing
air in, while you count three.
Then snap your hands off the

Keep this up until the patient

accord.
