Employment in the steel and iron
mills decreased 18 per cent in Janu
ary as compared with December, ac
cording to figures issued by the goy
ernment. It was the largest slump in
jobs registered among thirteen manu
facturing industries survey, by the bu
‘reau of labor statistics.
} The reason is obvious of course—
the other industries were*hit harder
and earlier. But the drop serves. at
any rate, to emphasize the arguments
for the adoption of the three-shift day
in steel and iron, writes Arthur M.
Evans in the Chicago Tribune. With
the plants operating at the present
gait, the establishment of the eight
‘hopr day in the continuous processes,
‘lt is estimated, would gilve work to

Prehistoric Cemetery.
An interesting discovery was made
it Crail, Scotland, recently. When
some men of the telegraphic depart
ment were at work on the west links
they unearthed a stone coffin with a
bhuman male skeleton inside. There
Is nothing to show the date, but it is
obviously of great antiquity, and prob
ably belongs to the same remote pe
riod as other stone coffins that have
been discovered at various times near
the old burgh. .
Look Ahead.
It is well enough to stop and rest
now and then. But while we rest,
our eyes ought to be on the hilltop
that is to be scaled rather than on the

Blake in Chicago Daily News. °
