HAPPY DAYS FOR
READINGSHOPMEN
Some 'Employes Disappointed
Because Names Are
Not on List
Rending, Pa., Dec. 24.—A1l of the
mechanics and other employes about
the shops of the Reading Railway
Company are now receiving their
back pay which was allowed them
from May 1, last. According to the
statement of an official of the com
pany in this city the average to each
man did not exceed 140. They were
allowed four cents an hour. The
amount paid out in Reading aggre
gated many thousands of dollars. It
is said that the amount of back pay
the men were entitled to all over the
I Reading system aggregates J150.000.
Some Dinnppointed.
j Many of the foremen employed by
1 the Reading Railway Company about
,! the shops, not only in this city but
at other points along the system,
. complain that they are not being
treated fairly. They claim that be
cause they are monthly men they are
i not entitled to any increase in pay. It
is said that they are not permitted to
, become affiliated with the unions.
The shop men on the Central Rail
road of New Jersey are being paid
the overtime allowed by the U. S.
I railway administration from May 1
last. The back money will average
about the same as that on the Read
ing. •

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
The Star of Bethlehem: Its Message.
By the Rev. J. Owen Jones, Pastor of the Sixth Street United
Brethren Clmrcli •,
I
"And the star they had seen rise
went in front of them till it
stopped over the place where the
child was." Mt. -2:9 <R. V.)
I am the star of Bethlehem, and
this is my Christmas story.
I was one of a million of worlds,
without any special brilliance to dis
tinguish me from my companions.
There had been much whispering
about a task that God wanted per
formed. But it was rumored that it
was work that only the brightest
could do.
You can imagine my surprise when
I was selected to fill the place. At •
first, I hesitated, for fear 1 would J
fail in the undertaking.
But, as soon as I said I WILL, I I
began to grow brighter, until I shed j
forth such a radiance that men began I
to inquire concerning me.
Then I began to move, and as I
Journeyed, my light lit up a pathway
i that led over hill and vale. .
j In the light that shed. I noticed a]
! few men slowly plodding where 11
. led.
I After a time, God told me to stop, '
| and I saw that my rays revealed a |
\ humble stable, which the men soon j
' reached and entered.
How I wondered what it all meant. ;
j Then the Heavens parted, and a i

Factories Of! Fifth i
Avenue in New York
Business men of Xe-,v York City arc
going- to move an entire industry—the
garment trade—employing thousands
of workers and millions of capital and I
I housed in hundreds of buildings, from !
one section of New York to another.
Tiie movement known as the "Save I
Fifth avenue, project, started several j
years ago and has just now assumed'
1 tangible form.
Factories which have long despoiled I
part of America's most famous shop- 1
ping thoroughfare, scores of them j
within a few months will have pack
. Ed up, bag and baggage, and transfer-!
I red their activity to another area of !
'Manhattan —west of Seventh avenue
> from Thirtieth to Thirty-ninth street!
| —there to establish the garment cen- |
I ter of the United States,
i Fifth avenue for years has borne'
i the reputation of being the city's best '
residential street, the downtown sec-;
■ tion being devoted to retail shops of
, high and most diversified types. Into j
i this region of imposing business 1
[building and exclusive merchants, as I
j time went on, the cloak and suit man-!
ufacturers made their way. Soon the i
' sewing machine bade fair to elftni- 1
[ nate the yard stick. America's prom- !
enade of elite trade and style was be- j
i
great chorus of angels sang. "Peace
On Earth, Good Will Toward Men."
This was followed by a stillness
and a voice which told me I had been
used by God to invite the world to
meet its Savior.
How miserably I have failed, said
I, for only a few men came.
"Failed," said the voice; "know you
not that they were the Wise Men."
Suddenly my brilliance left me, and
for years I pondered over the toil of
that night.
Through these many centuries I
have learned much, and now it is all
plain and simple.
From my far away place in the sky
• I have observed, that God is now
j using men to do His work,
j What a change I note in these men
j from the very moment they begin
I doing God's will.
I How bright they become. Indeed
so bright that I can always pick
them out of a crowd.
How the same light that filled me,
' now abounds in them. How pure and
I clean and new it makes them,
j At first there were only eleven
| who were calling the world to Jesus.
I Now there arc millions who are I
| telling the glad message,
j But, this I would have you know. |
I That now as then, only the Wise Men ,
j follow the Trail that leads to the j
l Manger.
I
ing transformed into a factory district
I whore noon and closing hour whistles '
vied with limousine motor horns.
These cloak and suit manufasturers '
however, most of them patriotic I
Americans and Jealous of the welfare
of New York, got together and, co- •
operating with u group of men known ,
as the "save New York committee,"
formulated plans for the erection of i
factory buildings in a less exclusive
section of the city.
nought \ew Locations
Carrying the idea of co-operation
still further they purchased many
pieces of real estate, totaling 92,000
square feet in 'he Seventh avenue
section, jrnd have obtained options on
102,000 square feet more.
l'lans now contemplate the con
struction of four co-operative factory
buildings of sixteen stories each with
a combined fl° or space of 1,400,000
square feet at a yearly rental cost of
approximately 1700,000, about 50 cents
a square foot, as against $2.50 a
square foot which many of the man
ufacturers are now paying. The men
interested in the project estimate a
saving of not loss than 3,000.000 a
year in rent alone, and other similar
economies, they say, will effectively
slush the Ills'- cost of living as re
gards women s garments." Sixty gar
ment manufacturers with an annual
output valued at 650 million dollars,
are to begin the new venture.

The same beautiful simplicity which I

The service will be opened by the !
choir in the choir rooms, singing \
"Joy to the World." This gives the'
effect of distance and echo and as
was noted on Sunday evening greatly
enhanced the beauty of the hymn.
Mrs. Lee Izer, soprano soloist, will
render Ton's "The Infant Jesus" and,
the choir will sing William's "Bright
and Joyful Is the Morn."
The Rev. Dr. H. W. A. Benson'

Forty Feet of Material
Goes Into India Turban
In certain parts of the world, where |
exposure either to extreme heat or |
cold is a great danger, we find hats |
designed primarily for protection. Cu- I
riously enough, with all our modern I
discoveries, we have not yet been able I
to improve on these types, and ex-1
plorers of to-day resort to the gar- I
nit nts and methods of protection in |
use among 7>eoplcs in such zones of
danger The sub-arctic people from
the frozen tungas wear a snugly-fit
ting bonnet witli ear laps, designed
to exclude the cold as well as to con
serve the heat. Although the utili
tarian side is the essential feature,
and each of the twenty or more little !
pieces used in the construction of the |
bonnet are necessary to make the j
shape, the people who wear this head
gear have adapted ornamentation to!
its limitations.
Fur is the basic material, but there
arc effective inserts of different col
ored strips of leather, some of which
are woven with leather of a contrast
ing shade. In introducing the bright
colors they depend almost entirely
I 011 quill work, although occasionally
bits of trade cloth are used. The aes
thetic value of the colors, in a cold
climate, is an important aspect of
this type of head covering, which re
mains structural and in good taste.
In India we find the turban worn
to protect the head from excessive
heat, the thickness varying according 1
to the climate in each locality. These
turbans are made of cloth of from
2') to 40 feet long and from 12 to 18
inches wide, and are wrapped around
the head in endless variety, according
to rank and taste All those who can
afiord it wear a band of ten or twelve
feet long, made either partly or whol
ly of gold thread, on top of the tur
ban There are a number of accessor
ies worn in combination with the tur
ban. One beautiful ornament, limited
to the use of kings, princes and no
bles, is a beautifully embroidered vel
vet band about six inches long and
two broad, into the middle of which
! i inserted a gold plate set with prec
| ious stones. This is worn obliquely
I in front of the turban, and the band
i is tied behind by means of a silk
| thread fastened to each end.
I The natives of the Philippines and!
I South Sea Islands wear large sun
hats as a protection from the heat.
Palm leaves of various kinds furnish
the material generally used, but the I
| shapes differ Some are woven flat
| and some with a peak. The common- i
; est form in the Philippines is made of!
| paint leaves covered with cane, a ;
j cane bandeau giving an air space j
j above the head. The ornamentation i
of these hats is very simple. No col- '
I ors are used with the exception of !
| blown, which is occasionally intro- I
1 duced in the use of hemp .
In China we find, in addition to the j
large peaked coolie hat used as a pro
! tection against heat, that hat which j
jis emblematic of rank. The social j
! position of a Manehu woman, for in- i
j stance, could be always determined !
| by the ornaments on her bonnet, of- |
ton consisting 'of precious jewels. I
These hats ranged in price from a j
| few dollars to as high as SIO,OOO |
apiece, making our so-called extrava- j
gant hats of sound cheap in
comparison.
One of the most interesting speci
mens on exhibition at the Brooklyn
Museum is a hat covered with deli- I
cute ornaments of turquois blue king- !
fisher's feathers in imitation of jewels I
formerly used, fastened to a frame |
of a stiff black open mesh These or- !
naments, which are made with a met- !
al foundation, stand out about half j
ati inch from the hat itself, and are j
beautiful both in design and color. It
is easy to imagine the life of inac
tive, passive luxury that developed
such a type of head covering.
