It occupies a site near the River Potomac, selected by the man whom It honors. In 1788. The cornerstone was laid on July 4, 1848, and the iHHt stone* set on De cember 9, 1884. It was dedicated on February 21, 1885. The proportions of this mammoth obelisk are*., colossal. The foundation goes down 38<*eet and Is 55 feet square. The walls are 15 feet thick at the base, 1V4 feet thick at the top and taper one-fourth of an ln<*h to the foot ; 23,000 stones were used. The cap stone weighs 3.300 pounds. It Is 555 feet high and Is said to be the highest monument in the world. The white marble used in Its construction came from the quarries of Msrylsnd. It Is clslmed that there Is room enough In ythe Interior to house an army of 12,000 men. The stairway to the top contains approxi mately 900 steps. An elevator makes the top easy te reach, so thst sll visi tors stay see and enjoy the magnificent ?lew of the national capital, its his toric surroundings and * the romantl-' cally beautiful river the man It honors loved so well, whlcfc is visible In the bird's-eye view from the top.

INDUSTRIES IN NEED OF WOMEN Small and Agile Hands Are Spe cially Adapted to Certain Work. ' ' ? MANY EMPLOYED SINCE WAR They Now Make Watches, Electric Light Appliance* and All Klnda of Garments?Many Married Women. In the Induetrlee, Chicago.?"The forewoman ha* come to stay," says Mrs, Anna Lalor Hur dlck, special agent for trade and In dustrial education for girls and wom en, federal hoard, for vocational educa tion. "The typical watchmaker of the United States ta a nineteen-year-old girl. The nqmher of married women In Industry has Increased 100 per cent alnce the war. Certain Industries are limited in their expansion only hy the number ef woman employees to be ob tained." In the course of her work Mrs. Bur dtck meets all aorta and conditions of women. Following are some of her Interesting observations of women In Industry: Hands Suited for Certain Work. "Women's small and agile hands are "WpSfflalTy" adapted to the work of cer tain Industries. Women are needed In garment'and hat work, the hosiery In dustry and soapmaklng, The expan sion of the hosiery knitting and gar ment making industries is limited only hy the number of women obtainable. "Women make and assemble the del Irate parts of adding machines, office appliances, Mazda lamps, electric light equipment and appliances. In 1914 five eighths of the employees of the Wal tham watch factory were women. It Ik surprising to know that the typical watchmaker of the United States Is n nineteen year old girl, "Before the war there was only the foreman in all Industries where wom en were employed. Sin^e the war there are both the instructional fore woman and the production forewom an in a1\ woman-employing Industries. In vhe.Betts Artificial Limb company, Hammond, Ind., women are admitted to tho classes in foreman training along with the men. Women In Many Line*. "In the Betts company women also do the set-up work. Certain machines have to be 'set up' to run a job lot through. Formerly a 'set-up* man set up the machine and a woman operated It. The machine got qut of order and she raised two fingers as a sign for the set-up man to come. Today wom en do this set-up work. "In Milwaukee, WlsH a street car ad vertisement from some factory which needed woman workers exhibited a picture of a bride, groom aild Hfffldte. er. Underneath were the words, 'Many marriages site ftafle ln otir plant. Come down and pick out your Job.' Then there was a long list of the social advantages accruing to the girl who'would work In that factory. Needless to say, the factory did not expect the girl to quit work after her marriage. "Married women In Industry have in creased 100 per cent since the war. "At Grand Rapids, Mleh., the furni ture factories advertise for housewives who will work at least two hours a day, suiting their own convenience as to when they will come/' Dog Ends Five-Year Vigil, Dying on Master's Grave ? Faithful unto death. This is the tribute that can be paid to Jack, a homeless yellow cur, known as the graveyard dog, found dead on his master's grave near Hamburg, O., having perished In a recent blizzard. For five years he had kept a lonely vigil over the grave of John Dlndore, leaving It only long enough to obtain food in the neighborhood each day. County ministers have preach ed sermons on the love, devotion, and grief shown by this dog. STAKE NEW DIAMOND CLAIMS Advontursrs Start Ruth In tti Pre toria District of South Africa Mines.
