Washington, Dec. 22.—Before the
war began the United States Gov-1
ernment employed approximately I
500,000 persons in the civil branch. |
New that this country is actually 1
engaged in the conflict, the great
army of workers behind th© fight
ing forces i,s growiug by tens cf
thousands. A good example of
this rapid addition of employees is
in *sa civilian force of the Ordnance
Department of the Army. Seven
large privately owned office build
|C( in Washington are required to
house the officials and clerks of
thin force, in addition to the usual
quarters in the State, War, and Na
vy Building, which were sufficient
before Uncle Sam began to prepare
for war. The Gun Division alone,
which did not exist ns a separate
division before we entered the war,
now has more than two thousand
clvil'an employees besides about
three hundred commissioned offic
er', and it is estimated that this
division will be three times its pres
ent size within a J'ear. The great
manufacturing plants of the Ord
nance Department in various parts
of the country employed about
10,000 men last spring. Now 20.
000 are at work in these establish
ments.
The task of supplying these
thousands of workers in the face of
the greatest demand for labor the
country has ever known is tne
oroblem of the United States Civil
Commission. At this time great
numDers of men and women are
needed to fill stenowaphic and oth
er positions in the offices at Wash
ington and mechanical trades and
technical positions in the Govern
ment plants for manufacturing ar
tillery and ammunition. T8e lo
cal boards of civil service examin
ers at the post offices in all cities
are furnishing detailed information
concerning positions in which men
■and women are needed.

Wall stm t In the days when Wash
ington was the lirst president of the
United Statc3. v.hen Alexander Hamil
ton and Aaron Mnrr were rivals at the
bar, was perhaps the most popular and
populous thoroughfare in New York.
It was so named because it followed
the line of the city's first defensire
stockade or "wall," and throughout Its
length were enacted many scenes that
are part of the nation's larger history.

Little Jennie bad been eating very

"Jennie," said her mother. "I don't
believe I ought to give It to yon. You
are about as full as a little girl can
possibly be. Another mouthful and
you'll surely burst."
"But, mamma, my neck's left yet!"

it is when we feel least like it

Solitude is a matter of taste. It has
been the subject of much discussion.
Volumes lwve been written in praise
or condemnation of it. But perhape the
real value of solitude ban never been so
subtly and so accurately expressed as
