HOW RIVETERS ARE MADE
Joint Wolf, Ho Island Expert,
Describes His Method
John Wolf, hailed at Hog Island as
champion general riveting foreman of
tho world since his record-breaking drive
of September 13. when 195,224 rivets
were put In by his ganss. Is one of our
most methodical shlpviorkers. He has
spent foitj -one out of ftft -eight .veais
In shlpvards, nnd when he talks about
building ships others listen with cars
wide open,
When the war broke out Wolf was
one of Fncle Sam's most valuable aides
In the Ehlpvnrds Mechanics had to he
tmde In a hurrv and Wolfe fitted Into
that work ndmliably. Speaking of ills
woik, tho general foreman said.
"liefoio the American troops over
sender make a drive on the Huns thej
in ike careful prep 'rations. 1 follow
the ame principle In getting ready for
n riveting drive. Itlveters were as
soiree ns monkej wrenches In a parlor
when Uncle Sam opened the ball in the
shipbuilding game. We've had to make
them, that's all.
"I'very one of my forty-three gangs
of riveters was as green ns fresh pine
only a short time ago. I got 'em from
om training school. Ive worked like a
ronl heaver whipping this raw material
Into shape, ind I want to say right now
there are no better workltiR buddies In
the world. I'll stack my huskies against
the creim of the famous Scottish ardj
on the Cljde.
"What Is the secret of the success of
my gangs? Well, It h as simple ns mi
nose on our fare. The first thlng'T do
Is to put mv huskies next to tho big Idoi
In the shipbuilding game. I hammer it
Into their heads that every rivet they
drive Is equal to a stout nail Into the,
cofTlii of the Kaiser. In other words, I
make their part in this war game seem
so ical that they pound rivets like the
lmvH over there pump machine guns
When things opened up I Ind the holes
nil reamed nnd the pioper tools all In
Plate. So when the drive started we
had a whirlwind start.
".Morale Is blamed Important In any
m er rtvetln rivets, yWv ft to
.-ive Boyi mentally and -physically nt.
f itlm to keep my huskies standing
right up on their toes most of the time
In keeping lbs boys In a fighting- mood
I nm sided by my boss riveter, Joe
Plnmond, who hs been In the game for
more than twenty vears, nnd has worked
In shlpvards nil over the country,"

As the sun of life
sinks toward the west
Life hns been said to consist of a constant
succession of breakdowns and repairs.
In old age, the former predominate.
, The body machine is more or less worn
out. Digestion is less perfect, elimination
,of waste is increased in quantity, but
reduced in efficiency.
Hence, constipation k particularly pernicious.
Constipation means more th.in mere failure of the
bowels to move recularly and thorouehly. It means
stagnation of the contents of the intestine, increased
fermentation, putrefaction and germ action, the
production of irritatinu and poisonous substances,
that are absorbed into the blood and carried all over
the body.
This is alwajs serious in old age it is especially '
daneerous.
Constipation c.innot be cured by drucs at any ace.
It is especially harmful to an aged person to use pills,
salts, and similar stronc purees in order to force the
bowels to act
But The Nujol Treatment for Constipation is not
only safe, it is in every way efficient.
Nujol is not a druc, docs not act like any druc.
Nujol helps natuie to re-establish easy, soft,
thoroueh bowel evacuation as "regular as clock
work." Nujol softens and keeps properly moist the in
testinal waste.
Nujol makes it easy for the intestinal muscles to
act, and prevents them from' ov crw ork,
Nujol absorbs poisons and carries them out of
the body.
Get Nujol from J our druceist and take it accordine
to directions.
JVirtliurf NUJOL is sold .only in scaled
t r Ul flUtg . bott,.s bearinc the Nujol Trade
Mark. Insist on
substitutes.

The gravity of the situation

of Public Health and Charities.
Read it carefully!
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND CHARITIES
Mr. L. H. Kinnard,
Vice President and General Manager.
The Bell Telephone Co. of Penna.;
Phila., Pa.
Dear Sir:
I am advised that by reason of the increasing shortage
of operators due to epidemic influenza, you will be forced
within a very short time to close certain of your telephone
central offices.
I am further advised that such action can be avoided only
if the public will refrain from making all calls not required
bv war work, sickness or other absolute necessity.
Therefore, in the interest of public welfare and of individ
ual health you are hereby directed to take such steps as will
deny service from all telephones observed to be used for the
making of unessential calls.
Only by the vigorous pursuit of such a course may the
continuance of service be guaranteed to those now and here
after suffering from the epidemic.
