WHY ARE WAGES
DIFFERENT
Subject of O. S. f. of L.
Broadcast

Wages differ because of the char
acter of the industry, the nature Of the
work, and the number of persons
available to perform that work, DR..
Alma Herbst pointed out in her broad
cast last Monday evening sover Sta
tion WHKC, Columbus. DR.. Herbst
was speaking on the radio educational
program presented by the Ohio State
Federation of Labor. She is profes-
sor of labor relations at the Ohio
State University.
DR.. Herbst also stated that those
engaged in skilled work receive more
wages because of the amount of skill
involved in performing the work,
thereby placing those persons in a
better bargaining position, and their
bargaining position is usually further
enhanced because skilled workers are
generally organized, thus enabling
them to engage in collective bargain
ing.

Surgical Dressing Mgr.
Says Low Wagers Must Go

New Brunswick, N. j. (ILNS)-
Robert Wood Johnson, who supplies
surgical dressings for half the United
States and has 5000 employees, de-
clares that the long hour, low-wage
captain of industry must be driven

very old. In
other days a false sense of mod
esty made women think they
should keep the matter secret,
even from the physician. But in
our healthier-minded present day,
motherhood is no longer regarded
as subject for a whispering cam
paign, and a perfectly natural
event is recognized as something
for frank, open discussion.
Another reason, however, that
comes in nowadays-the grim spec
ter Of expense-may prevent some
couples from seeking medical adj
vice at the very beginning. This
Is an idea that should be dispelled.
Physicians quite generally make no
more charge for advice all through
the prenatal period, as well as at
tendance at delivery, than they do
for the latter alone. They recog-
nize the great advantage to them
of a thorough acquaintance with
the physical condition of the
mother.
Prenatal care as at present un-
derstOod, includes first a careful
history inquiring into the POSSIBLE
ity of pre-existing disease, such as
tuberculosis, tonsilitis, rheumatism,
scarlet fever and syphilis, on &C
count Of their possible bearing on
the condition of the heart and kid
neys.. The heart and kidneys can
be carefully examined to determine
whether they are perfectly sound.

phasiZe the usually because sur
prises do occur. Mrs. Dionne, /
believe. did not believe in prenatal
care, and the quintuplets nearly
caused the only paternal fatality
in DR.. Dafoe's experience.
The most reliable means of de-
termining whether the mother is
developing any of the poisons OF
pregnancy is by urine examination
and taking the blood pressure.
These are simple, routine pro-
cedures which any physician can
carry out. They give fair and.early
warning so that the prospective
mother can be safeguarded against
these insidious dangers.
The physician is able to give the
mother advice about such almost
regularly present symptoms as
nausea and vomiting.
All prospective mothers wish to
know about diet and exercise and
hundred other things. Each case
is individual, and sometimes rest is
necessary and exercise should be
prohibited, and sometimes a good
deal of exercise is advisable.
There is widespread belief that
working women have an easier
time than sedentary women in
childbirth. This is not by any
means necessarily true. Mary
Sherwood, in the Journal of So
Geologic Medicine, argues for statu-
tory provisions to protect expectant
mothers from employment at hard
labor, with a rest period of several
weeks after childbirth with wages
continued. Undoubtedly with the
new birth of social consciousness
in our day, the mother will receive
larger share Of protection than
ever before. ~--

luxuriously furnished. One room,
equipped with twin beds is most

bath. For the discriminating per-

would please them.
FURN. APT. IN PRIVATE HOME:
This is a chance to have COM
Portable and attractive living quar-
tiers and at the same time keep
within your budget. It is the en-
tire second floor of a private home,
consisting of two rooms, kitchen,
private bath. The apartment has
just been redecorated throughout,
and is completely equipped with
new furniture. There are only
two adults occupying the balance
of the house so you can easily see
what quiet, restful place it would
be to live in. In the rental price
of $45 light, gas and heat are in
cluded.
FURNISHED APT:
This is another very attractive
proposition. There are two rooms
that can be rented as an apart
ment or separately; one is fur
niShed as a bedliving room in rose
tapestry furniture and Chinese
rug on the floor, and the other
is furnished very attractively as
a bedroom, and you may have the
privilege of using the kitchen. This
is located in a private home just
a little ways from downtown
where there are buses and street
cars to bring you down in a few
minutes. Call me for further de-
tails.

Another very attractive room
was in a private home occupied
by the owner and his wife. The
house is a lovely detached new
home with a deep yard in the rear,
nicely sodded. The room over
looks the yard and has two expo
sures and there is also a window
in the bath, which is strictly priv
ate, opening right off the room.
I feel secure in predicting very
happy and satisfactory surround
ings for the lucky person who rents
this room and bath. Rental is So

APT. ON CONN. AVE-:
Imagine living on Connecticut

rent of $46.50. It really doesn't
seem possible, yet you can actually
do that very thing if your choice
falls on this two-room, kitchen
and bath apartment. 1t is a we'll
arranged unit with good closet
space and many possibilities for
furnishing. The electric refrigera-
