The Netting of standard in not an opportunity for Iho workman to get mora money for let work, or for the manufacturer to get more production for lea pa. It la Instead a tiuula by which both ran find their juat dues. "It hai "heroin o tvnyualy mxig nixed that aclcntlflr time atudy la the only fair method by which to set standard of production. A time atudy la an effort to break down Into the primary elements all the com plex movement that ro to make up a working operation and then to re cord the tlmo of thpae elements. It In remarkable how comparatively few of theao almple elements there arc. even In the performing of the moat varied and romj Ilcntod work. "Time atudy taken into account all the lime necet-aary to produce a given reault, regardless of whether tho time la apent directly on the gar menta or la apent in contributing to the reault. For Instance, It reckons not only the time taken In closing a aeam. but alno the time neeenttary for getting ready the garment, get ting the thread, unbundling the gar ment, threading up the machine., etc., etc. "The contributory times( particu larly, cannot be atandardlced for all plants, for the. syatem of production used in each ahop wllj have a large influence on these times. Even on Hie direct times, the syatem of pro duction will have considerable effect for it is obvious that a workman can do ten garntenta of the same kind ia leas than ten timea the time he takes to do one. Standard rates do not, therefore, mean that the time for doing a garment aha! be the same In all shops, but only that the making of the garment shall be based on standard elements.

BOSTON m v : mi wll make hev- O' T7 man able to earn a certain sum per week in one ahop could go to an other shop and with exactly the same amount of effort earn the aame sum. Standard rntea mean that all men of equal ability and skill In their handi craft can make equal earnings, re gardleaa of the. tmnnetft they are working on or the shop conditions under which tho garment la made. Standard rates do not mean that the aame garment wl)l bejar the aame rate In every ahop. In those shops where every help and aid la given the workman the rate for the gar ment would naturally be lower than In the shop where the workman ia expected to look out for himself. In the first shop the management spend extra money to help the workman. "Nor does this neceswarlly work to the detriment of the 'self help' shop, for whereua ita labor coat may be higher, ita expense or organiza tion cost ia considerably lower. For it 1h a fundamental rule that, given equal wages for workmen, a decrease In direct labor coat necessitates an increase in expense cost. "It will greatly facilitate tha tak ing of the aiuJies and work out to the beat advantage of both workman and employers if the standard rate U set at a reasonable figure; reason able in that a very large majority of the workeis can do better If they desire to, and without undue exer tion. It can b-.irfit (.either side to aet the standards very high or very low, for the result will be the aame In either case, although they will be more difficult to arrive at. ..WHAT WE ARE DOING George Davenport, Chairman of Springfield Locaj No. 70 is again on deck after a week's Illness.

This entertainment "Uncle Sam's Neices" presented to a full house by four young ladies is one of the bet ever presented to the people of Springfield and was greatly enjoyed by tho audienceas evidenced by their applause and comments. Theii .musical numbers anfl lm personations prove that they are ar tists in their line and the Meneley Lyceum Syatem is to be complimented In securing such a talented troupe. At the beginning of the entertain ment Mr. Geo. Davenport, Chairman of the Loyal Legion, explained the principles of the 4L organization and its scope of work in this vicinity. He stated that the Impression was prevalent with some people who were not familiar with the Loyal Legion, that Its main object was' to secure a big wage for a short day's work; which assumption, be Informed, was erroneous; for the Loyal Legion , of Loggers and Lumbermen, being an association of employers and , em ployees working on a 60 50 basis to provide methods for the maintenance of harmonious relatione and the pro motion of each others welfare, ia en deavoring to make everyone a loyal cltlsen of these United States.
