"New Crop Nuts." Just above the written sign was does not appear that it has ibeen an eight hour day, but the iron and steel industry uses the short week, and in 42 out of 70 paper boxâ€"boards plants in the United States twoâ€"thirds of all the employes were working five days a week months beforé Uncle Henry startled the American Federaâ€" tion of Labor and got its endorsement for his grand idea. Foundriesg and machire shops, and the garment working industry, as well as some of the trades engaged in fur working. hats, caps, waterproofing, ete.," have long been on the fiveâ€"day basis, In fact coal mirers have been striking for years largely owing to their inâ€" ability to work as many as five days a week. It seems that it wasn‘t Henry. Ford, after all, who discovered the fiveâ€"day week, as the Monthly Labor‘ Review issued by the United States Departâ€" ment of Labor shows that the fiveâ€" day week has been in fashion in many American industries for years. It FIVEâ€"DAY WEEK BUT NOT ALWAYSâ€" WORK Henry Ford Did Not Originate the Plan; Lots of Firms _ Know About It : But the thousands of Armenians so soon stricken, directly orvindirectly, with earthquakes following two invaâ€" sionsâ€"which had> followed, in turn, the most extensive massacres in modâ€" ern timesâ€"possess now no suggestion of the capital and resources that réâ€" mained to the afflicted communities of Florida and California. © Almost nothing is now left to the surviving peasants except life, and the vague changes of the future. I J Winter‘s Grim Menace } The climate of their country grimly accents the worse prospects of the villagers who survive. Six thousand feet, and at some points higher, above the sea, the villages have long since entered upon a winter like that of northern Michigan; but with Arctic gales more numerous and with a snowfall much deeper. A brief blizâ€" zard prevailed at Leninakan as early or injured. From one little village of 600 inhabitants 128 dead, a quarter of the population, were dug up out of the ruins. At Leninakan, the specâ€" ially afflicted city of the district, with 40,000 residents, threeâ€"quarters of the buildings, despite the prevalence of brick or stone walls, crashed down before the earth wasâ€"still. & Twenty villages have been destroyâ€" ed by the earthquakes beginning on a fateful Friday, Oct. 22, and lasting, with intermissions, for five weeks. hundreds of villagersâ€"the number must remain indefiniteâ€"were killed Survivors of California earthâ€" quakes, of Florida storms, had capital and other resources at their disposal, the accumulation of long prosperity. But these people in Armenia were only fairly prosperous before the World war, when their land, year after year, became the battle ground of Turkish and Russian armies.‘ Nor have these peasant folk enjoyed the same ‘chance for recuperation that was granted, through the Armistice, to most of the warring nations. Turks Return | The Turks came back, in 1920, deâ€" stroying agriculture, removing live stock, invading homes, exposing men, women and children who could.not esâ€" cape, to renewed atrocities. It has been only since 1921, five years ago, that the Armenians of their homeâ€" land could begin to reunite surviving families, reâ€"establish homes, make fields once more arable, and, with the aid of generoug Americans, again proâ€" vide themselves with more essential elothing and with sufficiency of plain The victims of themmtm in the Leninakan district of i northwest of Edivan and Mount Araâ€" rat have suffered more, and will sufâ€" fer longer, than would the vietims of a ‘like catastrophe in the United States. Complete reports of the disâ€" aster have just been received by the Near East Relief headquarters. . * PAGE SIX INHABITANTS MOSTLY POOR Unlike People In Other Tremor W eas, They Have Little Capital to Aid Them; Some Facts _ ‘ A JOKE PUBLIC NOTICE is Rereby given that the Board of Local Emprovements of the City of Highwood, County of Lake and State of Illinoi§} has filed in the County Court of L County, Iiliâ€" nois, a certificate t the following improvement has beeh completed, and that it conforms ubstantially to the requirements of ‘the original ordinâ€".
