Businest Statesmanship
H AILED as "a piece or Indus
trial statesmanship o( the
first order" by New York's state
industrial commissioner, the Gen
eral Electric company's new co
operative plan for stabilizing em
ployment and Insuring relief to
employes during enforced lay-offs
Is to be submitted to each com
pany unit for acceptance. Should
every plant approve the plan, a
tdtal of 75,000 workers would be
affected, ayB an article In the Na
tion's Business.
"tJerard Swope, president of the
company, lias explained that- the
iiuJividual contributions would be
the same from president down to
otflce boy, one per cent of the in
cjjnc. While no minimum Is set
iif the plan, the lowest relief pny
njbnt will be about I 10 a week, but
In-no case will it be more than $20
alweek.
VVlien employment falls below a
certain figure, non-members will
ba required to pay Into the fund,
provided they are employed nt
lyast 50 per cent of the time, and
unemployed members will not be
required to contribute, but will re
ceive benefits. The company also
uSrees to stabilize Its force by hlr
Ifig new workers as slowly as pos
(flilo when business is increasing,
ijiil by keeping layoffs at a mini
mum during dull periods by main
tenance and similar work,
'industrial Interest in achieving
fl equitable continuity of employ
ment Is taking Its place in I ho pub
lit' consciousness. When Procter
irml (Jumble, sonp makers, guaruu
lilod 4S weeks of work each year,
Mle practice was acclaimed by the
press as "a pay roll that floats."
T)ie measures proposed by tile
general Electric company help to
Jjhflrm belief that long-range pro
visions for unemployment are bo
toinlng a Bottled policy of Ameri
tan Industry.

Advice to Girls
By
NANCY LEE '
SOME ailments or infancy and
chlldhod are really terrifying.
Convulsions is one of iheni. it
strikes terror to a mother s heart.
Convulsions In an infant under
one year Is u condition more seri
ous than In older children. Hut up
to the age of three It should not
be regarded lightly. 1( rarely at
tacks a child after the sixth or
seventh year.
The attack comes ou suddenly.
In the first stage tho arms and
legs become still, Uio eyes roll up,
the breathing appears to stop. The
head Is thrown back, and the
body is rigid.
Then spasms occur in the legs
and anus. T'lere is distortion nt
tho muscles cl the face. The whole
body appears to be In convulsive
movement.
Indigestible Foods
In a few minutes (he attack
passes off. Hut it may come back
again.
In the case of an inrant a form
of lover may be followed by con
vulsions. Not only a high revor, but ane
mia, exhaustion and various toxic
conditions of the system may
briug on convulsions. Certain
brain ailments may be ushered in
nith this symptom.
.Most of the common ailments ol
babies may be traced to wrong
teedtng. Convulsions are a very
likely result of Indigestion. Coagu
lated milk, or oilier Indigestible
substance, can produce this
trouble.
It an attack appears tho first
thing to do Is to call a doctor, l.'n
tll he conies you must do some
thing to draw the blood from the
head to the extremities. This may
be accomplished by immersing the
child in a bath o! warm water, not
hot water, of couiae. You must he
very careful about having the wa
ter warmer than the body tem
perature, but not hot enough to
scald Ihe child. He extremely care
ful about this.
Tho Treatment
Place the child lu the bathtub
being carei'ul to keep the bead
uhnvo water. Apply cold waler or
ice iMicks lo the head. The idea is
to keep the head cool and the body
warm.
Hectal enemas should be given
so as to empty the bowels. This Is
very Important.
In an attach of conmlMoiib
there are three things to remem
ber first, send lor a doctor; sec
aud, place the child up to the neck

The County
By It. XI. WOOD
There are perhaps a number of
men und women living In Douglas
county who well remember the
thiyd of the Modoc Indian war, aud
ho.v the first raid of "Caittaln
Jack" aud his followers bi ought
tne pioneers lace to face with the
horrors of another series of mur
ders by enraged Indians. Then
came the volunteers to the rescue
and troops from western forts to
suppress the uprising. Troops from
Walla Walla and Vancouver, as
well as from nearby pouts, were
hastened to the Klamath country
and the lava beds were finally sur
rounded, to all practical purposes,
and the Indians at last gave up
the struggle. All these things were
vividly brought to mind one day
last week when, over on a little
farm just out of Wilbur along the
Davis hill road crossing to the
Calapooia, an "old timer" was dis
covered who had participated in
the scouting and skirmishes that
led to the corralling of the .Modoc
Indians in the lava beds. This "old
timer" Is no other than F. L.
Spencer, born at ABhland of pio
neer parents in the days when
Oregon hiaotry was in tho making.
lu 1N7U, two or three years be
fore the war broke, the Spencer
family moved from Ashland to the
Klamath county. At that time what
Is known as Klamath Kails was
then Uukville, and when the
S pence i-s settled on a tract of land
bordering the Klamath river, there
were but seven houses in the town
of Llnkvilte. This homestead of
H. K. Spencer and family was 18
miles from tho present site of
Klamath Falls, and the crossing of
the river on the ranch was known
to pioneers us Immigrant ford.
Hpcncer was ulways friendly with
(he Indians, aud through all the
trouble was never molested by the
Modocs. CHptain Jack was a fre
quent visitor to the homestead, and
(he subject of this sketch, as a
hoy, lilts vivid recolectious of the
many times the old Indian was a
guest at the homestead, ami was
well acquainted wllh him. Young
Spencer, although just a lad, was
mini liar with all tho country
around for many miles, aud after
the first raid often guided the vol
unteers, under command of Cap
tain Hoiser, on scouting expedi
tions against the Indians.
Arrow Wound Leaves Scar
On one of these scouting trips
the volunteers met a party of Mo
doc warriors and in the nmniug
finht hd Indian arrow to mid a tar
get in young Fred Spencer's left
leg. aud tho ragged scar resulting
from the wound js still "worn" by
the old man of today us a trophy
of tho fight. Among tho victims ot
the first raids made by the In
dians the men folks of the Uodte
family were murdered, the wile
and mother escaping. Killing the
men of the Urotherton family, the
savages spared Mrs. ltrothci ton
mil daughter.
Scalped Man Survives
In his rt'citat of the rumpalmi
Mr. Spencer graphically told of the
killing of General Canby by "Scar

By
DR. R. S. COPELAND
DKAK NANCY LEE:
I am a girl past the age of
twenty. I have been going with a
boy my age for almost two years.
This boy has always been a little
jealous, but here lately he has be
come more jealous than ever. We
were planning on marrying but I
c..w t make up my mind whether I
care to or not. In fact, the nearer
the time comes the more I dread
it. I have to live with my relatives,
as I have no home. Some advise
me to marry him. Before I went
with this boy 1 went with auothei
boy. I care more for the first boy.
We broke up and It was my own
fault. This second boy Is even
jealous of my people and myself.
Now Nancy Lee, 1 know 1 have
never given him any cause to be
like this. There is no reason at all
for it. X want you to advise me
what to do. What can I do to earn
my own living? I am anxious to
do something for myself. There
is nothing I can do here in my
homo town. I am interested in
home work and would love better
than anything else to have a home
of my own, but that seems im
possible, and 1 would like to have
some kind of employment. You
don't know how much your -advice
will be appreciated. 1 am waiting
Impatiently for your answer.
ANXIOUS.
ANXIOL'S: Jealousy has wreck
ed many a marriage. It is bet
ter if it wrecks , an engagement
rather than allow two lives to be
made uphappy by It. Why not have
a quiet, frank talk with the man,
tell him that you are willing to do
your utmost to make life happy for
you both, but that- you cannot do
tt without' his cooperation and
faith in you. As to your obtaining
employment I do not know what
you care for and what talents you
may have. Hut almost every wo
man with the will to make good
can find something which will give
her employment and open the way
to independence, for there are mo
many professions open to women
now.
DEAR NANCY LEE:
We are two girls, who don't
know just whut to do. We each
have our respective boy friends,
living In two distant cities, whom
we would like to ask for their
photographs, but as we do not cor
respond, except to send greeting
cards on holidays, do not know
how to approach them on the sub
ject without seeming too personal
and presuming.
t- BABE AND BILLY. '
BABE AND BILLY: I do not see
how you could ask tho boys for
their photographs without seeming
presumptuous, since you are not
steadily. corresponding w Ith them.
It would be easier, when you see
them, to suggest how much you
would appreciate such a memento
of your friendship, " rather than
make tbe request in writing.

fehe SEA BRIDE'
By BEN AMES WILLIAMS
CHAPTER XXXVII. j
"Who says I stole whiskey?" Roy ,
demanded.
"1." Faith told him. I
"Who Somebody lied to you!"
"No."
Roy was near tears with baffle
ment. "Why what makes you ','
"Don't you want to tell?" Faith
asked quietly.
"It's a lie. I say!"
She looked at her husband. Noil
saw they were all waiting on him,
and he tried to rise to the occasion.
"By Jupiter, Roy. what did yoj
go and do that for? Can't a man
have a ship without a pack of
thieves on her? Mr. Tobey, yon "
He wavered, his eyes swung
helplessly to Faith. He seemed to
ask her to speak for him.
"Take him on deck, Dan! she
said, "till Cap'n Wing decides."
"I tell you."" Roy insisted, "I did-
Put DanT Tobey hushed him.
Dan'l was getting his first glimpse
of the new Faith, and he was
afraid of her. He took Roy's arm,
led him out and away. Faith and
Noll were left alone.
At noon that day, at Noll Wing's
profane command, Roy was put in
irons and locked in the after
'tween-decks to stay a week on
bread aud water. The boy cursed
Faith to her face for that, and
Faith went to her cabin and
dropped on her knees and prayed.
But she kept a steady face for
the men, and in particular she kept
a steady eye for Dan 1 Tobey. She
knew Dan'l now ! Dan'l had
warned Roy before bringing him to
the cabin. He must have warned
the boy, for Roy was prepared for
the accusation. He must have
warned the boy, therefore, he must
have known what Faith would as
sert.
And Faith knew enough . of
Dan'l's ascendancy over Roy to be
sure the mate had prompted her
brother's theft.
She must watch Dan'l, fight him.
And she thanked Ood for Bran
der. There was a man, a man on
her side. She was not to fight
alone. - -
She dreamed of Brander that
nisht. He was battling for her, in
i her dream, against shadowy and
unseen things. And in her dream
she thought he was her husband.
An unrest seized Noll Wing
an unrest that was like fear. He
assumed, by small degrees, the as
pect of a hunted man. It was as
if the death of Slatter prefigured
to him what his own end would
be. His nerves betrayed him; he
could not bear to have any man
approach him from behind. He
struck out nervously at Willis Cox
one day when Willis spoke from
one side, where Noli had not seen
him standing.
The continual storms of the So
lander Irked him; the racking work
of whaling, when It was necessary
to rnn to port with each kill fretted
the flesh from his hones. They
lost a whale one duy in a sudden
squall that developed into a gate
and swept them far to the south
ward, and when the weather mod
erated and Dan'l Tobey started to
work hack to the grounds again,
Noll would have none of it.
"Set your course to the east-
ard," he commanded, "I'm fed up
with the Solander. We'll hit the
islands again."
Dan'l protested that there was
nowhere such whaling as the So
lander offered, but Noil would not
be persuaded. He resented the at
tempt to argue with him.
"No. by Jupiter!" he swore. "A
p'ty if.. a man can't have his way.
M U (with Solander. Dan I. I m
sick o storms and cold. Get north
to where it's warm again."
So they did as he insisted, aud
ran into slack times once more.
Tho men at first exulted In their
new leisure; they were well enough
content to kill a whale and loaf a
week before another kill. Then
they began to be impatient with
inaction: discontent arose anion;
them. They remembered the am
bergris; and their talk was that
they need stay out no longer, that
the voyage was already a success,
that they had a right to expect to
head for home.
Koll was wax in Faith's hands
In these days. His fear, prowing
upon him, had shaken all the fibre
out of the man. He could he
swayed by Dan'l, by old Tichel
by Faith, by almost anyone save
in a single matter. He was drink
ins steadily now. and drinking
more than ever before. He was
rver sober, never without the
traces or liquor tn ins eyes ana
his loose lips and slack muscles.
And they could not shake him in
this mutter. He would not be de
nted the liquor that he craved.
Faith never felt more keenly the
fact of her marriage to Noll and
her Identity with him than now.
She never thought of herself apart
from htm; and when he debauched
himself she felt soiled as if sh
were herself degraded. Neverthe
less, she clung to him, lived the
vow she had given him.
There were other times, after
that first, when she dreamed of
Brnnder. She could not curb her
d rea m s . He was m u eh in them;
but waking, she put the man.au ay
from h'r. She was Noil's; Noi'
wait hers.
Brander avoided her. His heart
was sfek: she possessed it utterly.
But he gave no sign: he never
relaxed the grip in which he held
himself.
Now and then, on deek. when
Noll pworw at her or whined or
fretted. Brander had to swim; away
and put the thine behind him:
hut he did it. He was strong
enouuh to Ho this: he was almost
strong enough to keep his thoughts
from Faith. Almost but not quite.
She dwell always with him: he
was sick with sorrow nnd pity and
veai ni tig for the right to cherish
her
They spoke when they lisd to. hi
the cabin or ou deck; hut they
were never alone, and they avoided
each other as they . would have
shunned a precipice.
Save for one day, a single day,
a day when Faith called Brander
to her on the deck and spoke to
him: a day that would have been
but for Faiths stwmgth, tne
bloody destruction of them both.
The incident was the climax of
two trains of events, extending
over days extending, in the one
case, back to that first day when
Dan'l had roused the jealousy in
Noil and blown it into flame. Dan 1
had never let the flame die out.
He fanned it constantly, and when
he saw in Faith's eyes, after the
matter of Roy's theft of the whis
key, that she had guessed his part
in it, he threw himself more hotly
Into his intrigue. He kept at Noll's
side whenever it was possible. He
covertly taunted the captain with
his growing fear of Brander. He
roused Noll to gusts of rage, but
always these passed In words, and
Noli fell back into his lethargy.
Dan'l began to fear there was not
enough man left in Noll to act.
Noll, moved though he might be,
had In his heart a trust in Faith
which Dan'l found it hard to shake.
He might never have shaken It had
not luck favored him. And this
luck carje to pass on the day Faith
sought speech" with Brander.
That move on Faith's part was
the result of an increasing peril in
the fo'c's'le. The men wrere gal
ling drink again.
This began one day when a fore
mast hand came aft to take the
vysel. Old Ticrfel sraelled the
liquor on 'him, saw that the man's
feet were unsteady, and flew into
one of his tigerish fits of rage. He
drove the man forward with blows
and kicks. Ho came aft with his
teeth bared, and flamed to Noll
Wing.
Men were sent for and ques
tioned. Three of them had been
drinking. They were badly fright
ened; they were sullen. Neverthe
less, in the end, under Tichei's
fist one of them said he had found
a quart bottle, filled with whiskey,
in his bunk the night felore.
Tichel accused him of stealing it:
the man stuck to his tale and could
not be shaken.

to a department executive at the
Hudson's Bay company store, the
largest institution In Victoria.
"It's pretty dull," was the an
swer. "Oh, ot coures, we did a lit
tle more business last monlh than
the year before, but I've an Idea
that some of the other places are
running quite a bit behind."
So, you see, quaint or no quaint,
Victoria is a pretty average sort
of place.
THEY have no lawyers here
only barristers and solicitors.
Still, If you get Into trouble, you'll
have to hire one, and pay him his
fee. So qunlntness, after all, Is
only skin deep. It doesn't, affect
the fundamentals.

At any rate, tiie streets aren't

there are plenty of bootleggers
who will take care of you without

SUPERIOR BOATSTO
OUTWIT U. S. GUARD
NEW YORK, Aug. 22. Although
Hum How, that notorious anchor
ing ground (or liquor-laden ships
just outside the New York terri
torial waters, has been wiped out,
liquor-smuggling organizations,
more iowerfully organized and
equipped than ever before; are
landing bona fide whiskies and
wines along the eastern coast at
the rate ot at least 10,000 gallons
a day.
Phelps H. Adams, New York
newspaper man who has made a..
recent siuuy ui um biuuksuu;; sit
uation, gives this estimate.
The tactics of Itum Row, where
slow and heavily laden freighters
simply dropped anchor and waited
f;r fast small boats to take off .
itieir cargoes, have been antiquated
by the development of a warfare
between the smuggling syndicates
and coast guard which utilizes ev
ery applicable invention of science
and engineering, says Mr. Adams.
At' least 100 boats now operated
by the smuggling interests have
been especially built for thetr Work
in Nova Scotian shipyards, he says.
Nearly all of these have secured
the protection of British registry,
although they may be American
owned. Known to the coast guard as
"blacks," these boats ply between
the French Islands of St. Pierre
and Miquelon, off Newfoundland,
and ports in the West Indies, tak
ing on their cargoes at both ends.
Guided by outlaw radio stations on
shore, they meet a fleet of fast
motor boats at appointed spots In
the dead of night and are relieved
of their liquor which is rapidly
transferred to a shore fleet of mo
tor trucks and dispatched to New
York and other east coast cities.
"These boats are desi.smV with
almost as much care as is given a
vessel of war," says Adams. "They
are broad, low-masted and sit well
down In the water, so that they are
difficult to see. They are powered
by the most modern type of en
gines, provided chiefly by a well
known American firm, and are cap
able of operating at high speed, lu
many cases the vessels are partly
armored, and almost always they
are equipped with unlicensed ra
dios. A few of them are able to
throw out dense smoke screens in
time of need, and all are registered
under foreign flags so that they
may not be searched unless they
come within an hour's sailing dis
tance of the shore, which they are
careful not to do."
How many of these especiallv
built vessels are operating in addi
tion to the 100 known to the coast
euard it is Impossible to estimate.
But the writer shows by quoting
government figures ' that innumer
able other smugglers are operating
successfully and 1 that the ' coast
guard's hops of making such smug
gling unprofitable has never ap
proached realization in spite of the
intensive efforts of that service
with its 350 craft.
