He was accepted and is still to be found at that plant on the job as ever. A great many changes have taken place in the factory, however, since Mr. Turkarth's first appearance inside its walls and from a force of less than 500 men, he has seen it grow double and then even exceed its new mark twice again. Few factory employes in this city have had the distinction of round- ing out such a long record of steady work as Mr. Burkarth. The more noteworthy is the fact that he is on the job every day and has taken charge of a new department. The only other long record employe of the Russell and Erwin plant is Jeremiah Horrigan. Mr. Horrigan rounded out a half century of work for that plant about two years ago. When Mr. Burkarth applied for a position he was given work in the miscellaneous hardware department. He remained at the plant for 18 years steady, later accepting work at the Landers, Frary and Clark company where he stayed some six months. He then went to Cornwall and Bishop's retail hardware store where the Abbe Hardware company is now located. After six months in that place he returned to Russell and Erwin’s where he has remained since. Mr. Burkarth is known to every man and woman in the factory and h taken a hand at working in practically every department there. Changes at the plant will eventually see a grating, drilling and sorting room of which Mr. Burkarth will be placed in ~harge. CITY ITEMS Graduation gifts reduced at Morans’ —advt.

Washington, June 27.—There were 2,090,132 more males than females in the United States in 1920, making the ratio 104 to 100, as compared with 106 to every 100 females in the period of 1900-10, the census bu- reau announced last night. A preponderance of males has been shown in every census, due primar- vy, the announcement said, to the considerable number of foreign- born residents, among . whom the males greatly outnumber the _fe- males. Thirteen per cent of the caun- try’s total population in 1920 were foreign-born. Every state except Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York, North Car- olina, South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama had an excess of males over females. These seven states had ratios ranging from 96.3 to 100 for Massachusetts, to 99.9 for North Carolina. The District of Columbia had a fa' greater excess of females than any state, its ratio being only 87 males to 100 females, and Nevada had 148.4 males to every 100 females, the highest ratio of any state.

FRESH AIR CAMP OPENS THURSDAY Kiddies to Spend Two Weeks Enjoying Farm Life Miss Carolyn Bartlett, secretary of the City Mission, left this morning for Burlington where she is superintend- ing the arrangements preparatory to the opening of the New Britain Fresh Air camp. The first lot of children, about 30, will leave for this camp on June 30. During the months of July and Au- gust it is planned to accommodate children of this city, whose health is below normal, in groups of 30. Each group will remain two weeks. The camp is restricted to children who would be unable to enjoy a vacation any other place. There are accom- modations for about 140 altogether. No pains are being spared this year to make the Fresh Air camp for chil- dren the greatest event @ the lives of the city’s youngsters. Children, whose physical make-ups are such as to be unable to stand the terrific heat of the summer without the necessary tonic of God's sunshine and fresh country air, will be enabled to spend a health-giving two weeks romping, frolicking, resting, fishing, drinking fresh milk, eating fresh eggs and but- ter, drinking the ever healthy butter- milk and spending their time grow- ing strong and healthy out where the grass grows green, far from the dust and grime and contaminated air, damp cellars and unhealthy corners of a busy city. One sight of these happy, light-hearted youngsters as they return, browned with the rays of the outdoor sun, rejuvenated by the diet of country products right off the farm, and the last vestige of doubt as SOCIALISTS IN SESSION Attitude on Strikes and Lockouts Be- ing Considered Today Detroit, Mich., June 27.—The social- ist party’s policy toward general and political strikes and its attitude toward organized labor was set up for deci- sion in the party’s national conven- tion today.
