The Wonders of Amorici
By T. T. MAXEY
THE WA8HINGY0I* MONUMENT.
rIS gigantic shaft, unique, Impos
ing, dignified, jet simple to an
extreme, is a most fitting and suitable
memorial to the Father of Our Coun
try. 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. On a
clear day, a prominent peak. Sugar
Loaf, in the Bloe Bldge mountains,
fifty mll?* or more to the northwest, is
plainly visible.

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

"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

there are both the instructional fore

In vhe.Betts Artificial Limb company,
Hammond, Ind., women are admitted

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.

'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.
