me any harm, I hoped. The barge
was being made fast to the landing
with the moorinG ropes.
The little cook was nervous.

Hell get lost in this fog" big
Bill growled. Don't worry, I'll get
back quick. And it won't hurt you
to hold this barge ten minutes"
I wondered WhJ Bill wanted to
stay with the barge, now I knew
that he was not a member of th5

steamer out of San Francisco. Il

We followed the hand trucks

Akron had the lowest proportion of
the metropolitan Offices in placements
of youth in "white-collar" jobs, and the
highest proportion of youth placement
as service workers, according to the
analysis.
Dayton was also low for the "white-
collar" group and high for the service
classification. Canton, because of a
large proportion of placements of
youth as salespersons, was highest
among the metropolitan Offices oper-
ated by the Bureau in "white-collar"
placements.
The Cincinnati office of the BUG had
the highest proportion of youth place

Cleveland had the lowest proportion
of placements of youth as unskilled
laborers while Akron had the high

In further breakdown of the total
placements made by the Employment
Service in 1889 through all Bureau Of

women were placed in jobs, and 3d.
300 men found work through the Serv-

we want a large array Of them from
which to choose.
Beyond the simple buying Of goods,
consumers always want more and more
services. Delivery often is just the be-
ginning. Consumers want recipes, in
structions, repair and upkeep service,
advice, credit, periodic testing g-and a
wide variety of other things"
On the other hand, it is pointed out
that it was 'some enterprising pro-
ducer or dealer, seeing a possibility
for increased sales, who first offered
each one of the new services to the
public. The increasing cost Of dis
tribution that results from them can
not be set down as wholly the fault of
consumers or distributors"
Plans For Cutting Costs
In conclusion the pamphlet summa-
rizes the proposal of the Twentieth
Century Fund Committee for reducing
distribution costs. The Fund Commit
tee suggests study of system which
would clearly show the separate prices
for a single article, depending upon the
amount of services involved in it's sale
"The Fund Committee also believes
that there should be an increase in

ment agencies to provide information
about qualities, standards, and grades

ers to get better value for their

ability both in the field and in the box.
They defeated Fairmont last season
AZ in the final for the championship
and although big league scouts made
some inroads on the club, Detroit being
especially impressed with center field
er Cherry Hughes, the nine has been
strengthened more than enough to
stand the loss for this campaign. A
majority of the team received all-state
ranking. Minerva rather laughs the
championship off, stating that club
can win championship in West Vir-
ginia and still play on the back lots
around Minerva. It's good thing we
have a difference of opinion else how
would we have so much fun around

Mr.. Green took advantage of the
broadcast to extend greetings to the
San Francisco Union Label and In
dustrial Exhibition and to congratulate
the A. F. of l.. members on the West
Coast for their enterprise in making
this exhibition success. He said:
81 am proud of the fact that organ
lied labor is not waiting but is contin-
uously striving to forge ahead. l con-
gratulate the members of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor on the West
Coast who are sponsoring the San
Francisco Union Label and Industrial
Exhibition. They are doing their part.
Because the union label on product
means that it is made by men and wo-
men who are paid high-standard union
wages and who work under high
standard union conditions The work
ers of this country are its greatest
consuming market. By making the
workers conscious of the need of pur-
chasing union labeled goods, the San
Francisco exhibition is serving to pro-
mote the best interest of our country"

Now, there is nothing against the
Congress receiving contributions from

where there is a split in the labor
movement, for it to receive practically

thereby, destroy the united front and

employment can be made without a
shorter work-week, he said.
Later he said all surveys of the eff
feet of shortening work ing hours
showed that at first there was a let
down in production but that when adj
justment had been made, production
returned to it's former level under the
same number of workmen. Workers
would not agitate for a shorter work

creased pay.
The position taken by Lyons was
