BIRDHOUSES ARE
WORK OF PATIENTS
Mont Alto Sanatorium People
Are Giving Much Time to
the Outdoor Effort
Birdhouse building has become an
established industry with the patients
at the State tuberculosis sanatorium
at Mont Alto. Some weeks ago the
manual training class, which is com
posed of patients who have sufficiently
recovered their health to engage in
light tasks, was stimulated by the offer
of prizes for the best birdhouse to be
gin the construction of various types
of tempting tenements for feathered
summer visitors.
The ingenuity displayed and the
knowledge which was acquired from
the available literature on the subject
was astonishing. Many of the patients
are men who were skilled in other
crafts and they had no difficulty in
turning out tiny structures excellent in
workmanship and attractive in design.
The competition has grown so keen
between the different competitors that
i» was not considered advisable to
trust the awarding of the prizes to a
local jury. Commissioner of Health
Stunuel O. Dixon arranged with Dr.
Wltmer Stone, of the Philadelphia
Academy of Natural Sciences, to act
a.-? Judge in the competition.
Visitors at the institution have ex
pressed much interest in the work and
the majority of the entries' have al
ready been purchased. The demand
has been so great that this promises
to become a profitable industry for
the patients. j
ORGANIZED LABOR I
WELL TREATED
IN LAST YEAR
Wage Advance General the
Country Over; Hours
Shortened
Washington. April s.—Organized la- I
bor received more in the year end- |
ing with May 1 in increased wages,
shortening of hours and legislation
than ever before in its history, ac- j
cording to officials of ihe American j
Federation of labor. Wage advances 1
were general the country over in vir- j
tually every line of industry and laws j
benefiting labor were put on the stat- i
ute books of every State in the union j
except five-
Wage increases were greatest in the i
metal trades, many of which were j
stimulated by war orders. Cotton
manufacturing was the only main in- j
(1 us try which did not grant substan- :
1 tial increases. The metal trades, i
i too. claimed the greatest number of!
'strikes during the year, though many'
| plants increased the pay of their men ;
land cut working hours voluntarily,
j One benefit brought by the indus- j
I trial revival which labor officials con- j
■ sider as important as increases in j
i wages was the effect on unemploy
ment. which has disappeared within |
!the past year. Statistics just com
pleted by the department of labor I
! show that men of all trades have been
j called in to work. Iron and steel I
mills have on their payrolls now I
thirty-six per cent more men than
were employed a year ago and the
car building and repairing industry
has increased its forces by about the
same percentage. Manufacturers of
boots and shoes are employing twenty
per cent more men than this time last
year.
Wage increases during the year
i have ranged front five to fifteen per
| cent. No statistics have been com
! piled by either the department of la-
I bor or the American Federation of
1-abor. but reports coming In to both
i tell of what is being accomplished in
[manufacturing plants in all parts of
the country.
1.500 Strikes.
j The department of labor puts the
(country's 1915 strikes at 1.500. about
| 300 more than the year before. About
two-thirds of them were for wage in
j creases or decreased working hours
and most of them were successful.
Munitions strikes starting in the sum
mer of 1915 attracted much atten
tion. Most of them were for short-
I er hours without pay increases. Short
er hours generally were obtained by
the munitions workers, but where j
wage increases were asked the work- !
j ors seldom got as much as they asked ■
for.
Strikes In the clothing industry in !
eastern cities involved a number of I
jstrikes. but their duration was com
paratively short. A middle western i
clothing strike, in Chicago, however, |
lasted for three months and involved |
from 6,000 to 25.000 workers. Other
i strikes of importance during the year
included the building trades strike in
(Chicago, which halted building in that
city for a time; the oil and chemical
' strikes at Elizabeth. N. .T.. and neigh
boring cities and the Chicago street
car strike. The eastern Ohio coal
istrike was settled just a year ago.
I The causes of strikes and lockouts
were numerous. In a total of 1,200 I
strikes three hundred were for wage j
increases: 133 for a shorter working!
day; 90 because of wage cuts; 60 be
cause of discharge of union men; 40
because of employment of nonunion
men and 20 for open or closed shop.
.Many Compensation laws
The most significant feature of the
year's labor legislation is given by
labor leaders as enactment of work
men's compensation laws. The
growth of the industrial commission
plan is considered of great import
i ance also. This plan unites in one
authority the administration of work
men's compensation, factory inspec
tion and other labor laws. It was
adopted during the year by Colorado,
Indiana, Montana, Nevada and New
York.
Unemployment received the atten
tion of a number of legislatures. Il
linois established a commission on un-
I employment; California and Nevada
' investigated unemployment condi
tions and Idaho provided emergency
employment through county boards.
Public employment officers were es
i tablished by California, Idaho, lowa,
j New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Illi
nois, Michigan and Oklahoma ex
tended their public employment sys
tems. Seven States provided for
i licensing and supervising private em
| ployment offices.
Laws relating to the employment of
I women and children were passed by a
I number of States. Arkansas and
, Kansas enacted minimum wage laws
| and California, Massachusetts and
Washington amended minimum wage
! laws already in force. Eevlen States
now have minimum wage legislation.
Arkansas and Pennsylvania passed
child labor legislation during the
year.
In the field of safety provision the
I most detailed enactments were those
formulated by the Industrial Com
| mission of Wisconsin and the indus-
I trial boards of New York and Penn
i s.vlvania. The seamen's act, the
' Alaska and Arizona old age pension
laws and California's apointment of a
. commission to report on social insur
' ance were other important enact
ments.

Leave Your Car Alone
Says Jackson Distributor
"Athough forewarned by every in- J
struction book ever issued by an auto- j
mobile concern and despite the advance .
of every experienced motorist, the ave- j
rage man driving his first car. can
scarcely forbear tinkering with the ad- ;
Justments on his machine," says j
this locality.
"Perhaps one in every fifty actually
secures better results by altering the :
adjustments, but the ordinary Mr. Fus- j
ser without any mechanical knowledge j
is simply stirring up trouble for him
self. Taking out spark plugs to clean
them, cleaning the breaker parts in the ,
magneto, changing the adjustment of
the pinion and bevel in the real axle
are just a few of the score or more !
little adjustments that Mr. Fusser finds
indispensable.
"Unless the owner has some real
mechanical ability and knows what he
Is doing, he will be adding little by j
little to the eventual cost of overhaul- |
ing which his car is bound to face.
