I'liruniclos i Abolishing Seasonal Layoffs L'luisual interest attaches to the announcement of a soap man u fact in inji ciiiii))any that it will guarantee its employs steady em ployment t'hu year round. The explanation made seems to hold piomise that the evils of seasonal employment in a number of j other industiics may be reduced or abolished. It is news to most people that theie are dull and active seasons! t..,. I UT ,. .. ....m' ...... ti.,, ,i..,.,,,,i c... ii,;,. f i jwi nirnji. wiri'oi'ii mil; nvuiii nil. iiiium iwi kin.? jiimiuk.. is as constant as for bread, making allowance even for a type of human who "don't want to bathe much in cold weather," apparently this assumption is correct. Notwithstanding-, the corporation men tioned, doing an tnoimous country-wide business, has felt period ical depressions due to jobbers purchasing heavily. This made it "necessary to operate the factory at high speed for a few months. Then would follow the natural reaction aiid it would be necessaiy to lay off thousands of employes." This condition is to be changed by an alteration of the selling and di.tU ibuling system of the com pany that will eliminate middlemen. It has been lecognized for long that seasonal layoffs of largo numbers of employes by a great variety of industries were a dis turbing factor in commerce and social life as well as in manufac turing. The apparently unavoidable unemployment coming period ically tu certain classes of workers made for instability. It ac counted in large degiee for the "floating" worker and for an un economic labor turnover in factories and offices. How to avoid sea sonal unemployment has been a problem engaging many minds, including those of government invesligalois specially assigned to study it. Small progress has been made for reasons that are read ily understood in view of the soap company's statement. Admittedly there will always be a largo amount of seasonal business clue to the necessity of bowing to nature's laws. Hut it i." evident; that where there is disposition to change existing prac tices in lines which can free themselves fropi periodical depres sions artificially caused improvement is possible to the benefit of society and industry both. The example set by the soap com pany is worthy of emulation by every manufacturer who can ad just his business as this one has done. Hi . xt &' s'M.bfa' .'.W .......

The labor situation in Canada is desciibed as being so serious that the call for (11 ,000 men' to help with the immense harvests there must be met through the impoi taliun of men from the moth er countiy Kngland. The incidcu. is referred to as offering the first instance in history where a country of such size ;lnd propor tions as the Dominion of Canada has been obliged to call acrosn the Atlantic for help in i n agiiculttual enterprise!. Happily, in Canada ovoiy means is at the disposal of tlu? gov ernment I'm' assisting the farmers. Tho railroads are offerina- !ov'''' f ;" Unusual transpoi tation facilities to those who desire to assist in harvesting Canada's great crops. The steamship lines are co-t per illing in carrying out thin nt rpi ise. W hatever of individual gen ius and influence can be used is freely given to the government in its effort to solve this problem. I A rather interesting situation thus developed is that in Kng land the plan lias the whole-hearted support of (he Ihitish govern nn n'.. which sees in the cnterpi isi it fine chance to relieve ii'inkr ially the unemployment situation in Croat llritain, at IcaSt tern poralily. The ion nils will ao;uiie work at profitable vnge,- ami nv ny of them d' tiblless, will be so cliamoi'i.d of Canada that they will elect '.n lalio up thrir future luimos there. So nni.-h in tho way of settling a serious economic (Ueslinn will have been done through the harvesting demands of Canadian fanners. ' ' Al-clillialii !

I , COLONIAL Draperi 7aj6ricg COOP TASTE WITH ECONOMY CREATION Throughout the generations that havo marked its development from the' first sturdy settlers into tho great commonwealth of today, America has been & nation of home-makers. From the ancient arts of Europe and the Orient its people have brought the finest decorative ideas, leaving the tawdry and the gross. Blending those age-old achievements with the freshness of American inspiration, these home makers have created a distinctly American taste for things beautiful in the home. Colonial Drapery Fabrics are the embodiment of the American home-maker's individuality, and they are within his reach though his means be limited. uU doaler suys lo-ks arc lmvim.
