Because a wal nut went to Germany Instead of Eng land a romantic f young French girl Is being overwhelmed with offers of marriage from Germans, much to the disgust of her patriotic relatives. Dur ing the Christmas festivities at Halle Germany, a wealthy manufacturer had a huge Christmas tree ladon with presents, candies, etc., and when the tree was being disponed one of the guests took a walnut from the branches. Instead of it kernel, the surprised German found a letter in French signed "Alfredlne Maurand. of Tureane, France." The letter stat ed that Alfredlne, having finished her school studies, wanted to perfect herself In the English language and wished to enter Into correspondence with a young Englishman, and she hoped that chance would cause the walnut to reach some such destina tion. The romance of the situation ap pealed to the young men of Halle and letters offering marriage flowed In on Alfredlne to such an extent that she had to Insert an advertisement In the newspapers indicating that her sympathies leaned wholly toward Englishmen, nnd that anyway she wouldn't look at a German.

ItobinHon Anthipates Xcw Laws and Impovc plant to Jloct De mand Ha Spent ThouMands of lxllars In Pat Year in Modem Ma"hlnery, J. F. Robinson, proprietor and owner of the Domestic laundry, has Just Completed a year's program of Improvements to buildings and equip ment which makes him the proud master of one of the best plants of Its tuna in ine norxnwest. He has spent a good many thousand dollars in this work but believes the investment will b'e a profitable one to him. The changes in his laundry are the result of his foresight, being made to meet the new standards established by new laws. Two years ago he saw the drift of legislation and set about to get his laundry in condition so that he could operate it In conformance with the new demands and still real ize a profit from his business. The changes in his building and the addi tion of new machinery has taken the teeth out . of the nine-hour, employ ers' liability, minimum wage and sanitation laws. The addition which' he built to his brick building on the corner of Court and Thompson street as well as the purchase of an additional lot has more than doubled his floor space so that there is no congestion any place. Every worker has plenty of elbow room. By means of high windows and big fans, a system of ventilation that gets rid of the steam and suf focating heat has been introduced that takes the laundry far out of the sweatshop class. Most Improved Machinery. The new machinery which gives Mr. Robinson almost a complete new equipment, has been arriving at In tervals during the past year but last week the last and largest shipment arrive.l and is now in place. It con sisted of an entire carload. The prin cipal piece of machinery in this car was one of the Troy Laundry Ma chinery Company's famous Trojan Flatwork Ironers for ironing sheets, pillowslips, towels, napkins, etc., be ing the modern successor to the old styled mangle which has been a ter ror in name and fact to laundrymen for many years. The machine weighs over five tons and is a huge affair. It has an iron ing width of 120 Inhes which means that three feeders can be used at all times, two on sheets, and one on tow els or napkins. With towels and nap kins not over 19 inches wide, six feeders can be used. Inasmuch as a folder is required opposite each feed er and four shakers necessary, sixteen workers can be used at one time on mis macnine at rush times such as during the Round-up. And one of the beautiful features of it is that these workers are protected from in- Jury by a guard rail In front of the rollers which throws the entire ma chine out of sear as soon as the hand touches it. mis style or Trojan lroner has a capacity that can hardly be overtax ed. One of these machines in the laundry of the Blackstone Hotel, Chi cago, turned out 16.270 pieces In 10 hours and one in the Middlesex Steam Laundry of Lowell. Mass., 6000 towels in one hour. Besides having the ca pacity, the machines do superb work, giving a finish equal if not better than the average hand work and at one-fourth the price. In addition to the flatwork lroner. Included In the car last week were a Huebisch clothes dampener, a ma chine that throws a hot spray over the starched goods and prepares them for rolling in a cotton blanket for seasoning, a collar and cuff Ironing machine, collar shapers and body ironers. With this modern machinery. Mr. Robinson is able to work his employes the nine hours, which is the limit placed by law, and still get out his work for his patrons in this city and other parts of eastern Oregon without delay. He Is now employing thirty people in his plant and his weekly ravioli runs from $325 to $400. Some of his employes have been' with him for twelve and fourteen years and it is upon them as well as his new Im provements that he relies for effi ciency of service.
