Instead, most of the apples are entirely un- jcored and much of the peeling left on, During the process of “cuttin, japples, the workers’ hands become | cut, or, rather, slashed, and the arma |ewollen from trying to cut with |knives that are a disgrace. These |knife blades are hacked terribly, and |nome are even broken close to the |handle, and one might as well use |sawe ax these knives, and they are jal alike |. We are seated on benches that have no backs or any support what ver for our backs at all, and conse- quently, after sitting eight and sometimes more, our backs are ; Just about broken. The apples that the women have to handle all day long are as cold as tee and chill one thru and thru. The |temperature in the cannery could easily compete with that in a refrig- erator, and therefore we are more ike chunks of lee than human be- ings ere we are there many minutes. Water drips from the ceilings and runs on the floor. In fact, the floor looks more Mke a swimming tank than anything else As to the sorting or grading, which |has been a very recent nightmare. |The worker has two boxes, where originally there was only one needed to put the “cut” apples in. They are told to put the large and perfectly ut apples in one box and the «mal! and imperfect in another box. The boss and foreladies don't seem tc |know just what they mean therm selves by that, and occasionally find & good deal to kick about. Occasion ally, also, as the worker tries to work |fast the apples are bound to get a | trifle mixed, and one or two of the fopr or fiv: sticks her nose in the box and be- comes horrified and makes some re- mark about getting paid well for our work, I worked there for two weeks and my health is greatly impmired after working under these conditions, in there any law to compel those | people to change apch conditions? Is there any law ainet a company jgiving us such knives that we are finally forced to buy our own? Also, have they any right to hire people cut” apples and then core, peel, to "| be affectionate; third, she must hours, | cut, cut off brown #pots, cut out worm holes and grade them? Alno,altho 1 hired to “cut” apples, the forelady was bound that [ should arry garbage and heavy boxes of |cut apples back and forth on the | slippery floor, flooded with water. ed to do this, as I have heart | refu , and physically Iam not very trouble strong. 1 was picked on by her from |that moment till I finajly quit in | ding ust AN EX-WORKER. 1 would advise you to feport | this place to the state labor commissioner, Alaska building, city: Nother Idea of an Ideal Wife Dear Mins Grey: My idea of an |ideal wife could be included in four characteristics, namely: First, she “must be virtuous; second, she must be truthful; fourth, she must have good |mother wit or judgment | Any woman having thone qualities | would make any good man with com- mon sense a first-class wife. If she was lacking in anything, her good |judgment would enable her to make good. M. B.A. | Etiquette for Engaged Girl | Dear Miss Grey: Is it proper for & young woman who is engaged to accept invitations from other young men when her fiance is out of town? ELSA. It is conventional, provided that she has an agreement to that effect with the man she is engaged to, and if the young man who invites her out knows she is to be married. Some young men object to go- ing with an engaged girl, and are indjgnant if they are de ceived DIVORCE WHY? av 3 a4 0 Rachael foreladies comes by and) A BY DR. Back in 1889 such a thing as the practice | “painless dentistry” was unknown, No- body had a tooth pulled until the tor. tures of pain actually |} drove him to a den- just. IT found the greatest dread of a patient was when I took hold of a tooth with the forceps be- fore the tooth was drawn out. The prob- lem to me then was, not to find a way to make the whole oper- ation painless, but | only ato find a way to stop the | pain when the forceps were firat } applied. That I would ever be able | to take a tooth out without caus. | ing pain never entered my mind. I ke that drugs were used in surgery to deaden the nerves in making operations, and won | dered if some such method could | Rot be used in dentistry. It hap- | pened about that time that T had dog whose tooth had been a | broken off by a boy who. hit the | dog with a stone. The dog was = great pain, as the ne of the toeth was exposed.
