Mention of the difference between the oboerv-
nnce of Labor day In this country and in Europe,
where It was the occasion for democst rations to
“emphasise their organised demands and griev-
ances," recalls the fact that there was a time In
the early history of I-sbor day In this country
when the greatest concern of American working-
man wag tor tho "right of labor." That concern
was expressed In i n editorial ottered by the late
8a oilier Gompers In the first I-ahor day editorial
which bo wrote after congress had made It a
legal holiday. The editorial, which appeared In
the American Fedcratlonlst for September. 1894,

The Polaris Chronometer
YN 1812! Uncle Faro purchused a

assembly. In accordance with custom.
It was sent to the Navnl observatory
■t Washington for adjustment and
regulation for ship service.
On June 28. 1871. It was axslgned
to the good ship Polaris which went
north on a polar expedition. Tho
Polaris was crushed In the Ice. Some
four years later this chronometer wag
found In the snow at Newman’s hay,
Alaska. >y t'nptaln Nsrea offfR* Brit-
lab navy, who sent It to hla govern-
ment which. In turn, returned It to
Unde Sam.
The observatory had It carefully
overhauled. wound and started. De-
spite the fact that It had been ex-
yooed to a temperature estimated to
M 1IH degrees below freexlng point—

mental Investigators give the results
of experiments on which they bused

These tests were the busi* of the

In addition, the department carried

The conclusion of the Investigators
Is that “the use of Internal niedlcu-
tiotir against externa! parasites Is det-
rimental to the poultry Industry in
that It not only Involves useless ex-
penditures* but allows the parasite* to
continue their ravages when they
might lie destroyed by recognized
methods."
