"The -overseer held In his hand a pajter, from which be was apparently reading out Instructions. It was some thing like this: " To No. 1, three blue threads, one white, two green; No. 2, four yellow, one white and so on, each child re peating after the 'master' the Instruc tions given.

In deaciibin-' rTM,m Industries Mrs. Hume OrUL. Li the Veil In Persia and Turkish Arabia,1 tells how the beautiful carpets of that country are made, of course without ma chinery of any kind. The warp is stretched on a loom, which is. merely a frame. The woof consists of short threads woven nnd knotted by hand without the aid of a shuttle. When a row Is finished It is pressed tightly to the rest of the web by means of a comb inserted Into the warp. "The weaver does not see the oat- tern as he works, for he sits with the reverse side of the web toward him. The looms are generally kept in an underground vaulted room, often with water running through the center. At eacn loom three or four workers sit, according to the size of the carpet. Sometimes the workers consist of one man and two children, and occasional ly the owner UBes boys and girls only lor the weaving. "I sat on the high stool by the side of a tiny girl, whose fingers were working away so fast I could hardly follow her movements. The overseer was walking up and down the room calling out Instructions to the work ers. To me it sounded a horrible', In coherent Jumble, but the children seemed to understand. 11 perfectly.

' " ' You are afforded an opportunity to invest your savings or surplus funds in an oil company that promises to reap large returns.
