JEWELRY WORKERS NEEDED Disabled Soldiers Sought to Relieve, Shortage In Industry "Disabled soldiers who are either skilled jewelers or who are willing to go through n course of apprenticeship in order to learn jewelry manufacturing nre in great demand in all jeweliy cen ters of the United Htntes, particularly in Rhode Island," it is announced today by the War Depaitment through Colonel Arthur Woods, asistant to the secre tory of war, and in chnrge of the cam paign for the rc-emplojment of ex service men. The labor situation in the jewelry trnde is very acute, it is leported. Several reasons are assigned by members of the jewelry trade for the present labor shortage. There lias been no apprenticeship system in vogue in the jewelry business in many jenrs. There has been a general dependence upon immigration to suppl labor for the cheaper and rougher process. 'Im migration has been stopped, and there Is, therefore, a decided shortage of skilled jewelers and a small shortage of unskilled labor.

They were wildly cheered h the throngs in front, and had great dlffieultv in getting them quiet. Finally a hush fell over the throng and then those man clou? voices sang the "Mnrsellalse," as the crowd stood bareheaded and sileut in reverence nnd awe. It was a wonderful sight for the Americans. The had often heard how , that famous song hnd rung through the streets of Paris, but to nctuall hear ' it themselves nnd be a part of that great rejoicing and see the artists whs a reali zation of some of their wildest ilieanis. As the night wore on the more ex citable grew the throng, and it was genuine, for the cafes all closed call anil there was no evidence of drink in nny. The Americans, ns 'usual, began to take the lend in the performance of wild stunts. One first Looey climbed up i a lamppost with a prettv French girl and proceeded to mnkc loe to her there, hign above tne test, tne pair made a pretty picture, and some one suddentv took n flashlight of them. At that the girl decided she had enough and from her perch leaped clear down into the nrms of those waiting to latch her below.

I lie 1 rench girls did not have it all their own w:i, for there were American girls n -plenty on all sides Tied Cross workers, nurses. Y .

I Eric Doolittle. head of the astronomy departmcut at the T"niersity of Penn sylvania, nt his home near Darby. Professor Doolittle was Informed ot the plan of Prof. Avis Todd, scientist and nstronomer of Amherst College, lo ascend next Sunda; at Toit Omaha In one of the giant balloons belonging to the Hnr Department, to nttempt com munication wun me pinner, .unrs. " hen no mention is made of tho means of communication it is hard for an one to iienniteiy comment on tne chance of success I suppose wireless telcgrnph will be the method employed. nre millions of miles between." The question was put to Professor Doolittle as to how the sender of the message would know that it had been received No Proof of Life There "That question is an Interesting one,' he replied. "I suppose the messag would be sent In flashes of regular in- tennis, sn ju some such order as three long Hashes, two short ones, four lone ones nnd n on, all on the supposition that if the message went to Intelligent ears, n similar answer would be re turned, perhaps in the same order of flashes. Hut of course this is merely supposition. As yet the most power ful telescopes have failed to prove tho existence of life on the planets." No further explanation is given In the Omaha dispatch concerning the plans or methods of Professor Todd. He will usreud with Captain Leo Stevens, chief balloon Instructor of the War Departnuut. to n height of 30, 000 feet and perhaps higher. Captain Stevens holds the altitude record for ballooning. The party will remain, In the air from thirl -six to forty-eight hours. Professor Todd hns made two at tempts to communicate with Mars, one in n balloon, when the highest point reached was 22.000 feet, and the other from the peaks of the Andes Moun tains. Ilnth attempts were failure!.
