The United States ctvil service com mission is urging as a patriotic duty that women, as well as men, apply fo examination for the government ser wvice in positions for which they have special knowledge. These positions in. | clude stenographers and typewriters and aleo clerks.

The United States em- ployment eervice is prepared to place women as well as men in the occupa- tions for which they are best fitted. and the Willimantic superintendent welcomes both requests for positions and inquiries about any line of wom- an’s work. About 75 members of the cone wind- ing department of the American Thread company of this city, who are working on_government orders, have refused to work because one of the men employed in the room is not a member of the union to which all of the other workers belong. The work- ers refused to work Friday afternoon about 5 o'clock. They remained at their machines until closing time and Saturday morning. They aiso report- ed for work Monday morning, but would not start thefr machines. Later in the morning they left the mill. One of the government officials who is _employed as an inspector at the mill tried to persuade the people to return to their work, but they would not. Officials of the Textile Workers of America have been notified and are expected soon. The New York direc- tors were aleo motified by telephone. The walkout was still unsettled at closing time Monday. A meeting of the cone winders who are not out on strike because one of the winders does not belong to the union was held Monday evening at Labor Union hall. Nothing definite was done, but they decided to await word from umion officials. They will not return to work today, and_they expect word’ from the union officials in regard to their future conduct soon. It is possible that other workers in the plant will strike, but nothing au- thentic was given out pertaining to this proposition. The plant is engaged chiefly in war orders, Private Edward J.

A supply of Red Cross yarn for stockings has arrived at Champeau's store. Because of the fact that over 200.pair of stockings have been turned in which are too small, and because of a letter of suggestion from the Red Cross headquarters, the Putnam chap- ter is issuing the following general directions: “Stockings _ for _soldiers must measure at least 10 1-2 inches in the foot. It has been proved that drilling, marching and the wearing of the large army shoes all actually in- crease the size of a soldier's foot. Stockings less than 10 1-2 inches are not larze enough to he of use in the army; 11 inches is better, anq 11 1-2 still_better. Some may be even inches long. The leg should be madc large in proportion, with at least three inches of ribhmg. Be sure the two socks are of equal lensth in the feet.
