-MRS. DOAl^
FEOXDIEKT KOCKVILLE CEITTBE SPEAKER STIES BBOOKLTN ^UDIEHCE TO ACTION.
Industrial conditions on Lou^ Island were discussed last Sunday night at the regular weekly confer- •nce in the Hall Memorial Parish House of Holy Trinity P. E. Church, .in Brooklyn, by Mrs. Jeanne Marion .Doane, of Oceanside, ex-President of the Rockville Centre Etjual Suffrage •Club. In the general discussion that followed Mrs. Doane faced a rapid fire of questions that ranged from the .eTll of work in tenement houses to tbe pro«(pect of another rebellion in the South should the National Child Ijabor Law be enacted and the United States government attempt to enforce it. She had a ready answer for each and every query and amused her large audience in one instance when shei waa asked:
"Do you think people realize Just bow dangerous an economic evil child labor Is?"
"No," Mrs. Doane responded, "I am

sure they don't. I was scheduled to speak In a little up-State viiiage on Child Labor, and do you know tbat som« of the old maids there thought 1 was going to discuss twilight sleep and they wouldn't come. (Laughter.)"
In her address Mrs. Doane said that it would be much easier to tell what Industries w<erei not conducted on Long Inland, rather than those that were. She admitted that Long Island did not have an ostrich farm, had no gold or diamond mines, and did not manufacture rice paper.
"We have a good many unusual in¬ dustries on Long Island, some of which you here in the city are not familiar with. You know we have whalers at Southampton and Sag Harbor and Indians who make bead work and birch bark picture frames. Nearly all the gold leaf used in tbe United States is made in Brooklyn and I am sorry to say that we have some contraband industries. Among these I will mention moonshine whis¬ key, illegal shooting of birds for their quills and unlicensed manufacture of cigars.
"At this time when eo much dis¬ cussion Is under way about prepared¬ ness, it strikes me as important to mention that Long Island is the key- atone of the United States industrial system, for within a few hundred miles either way is concentrated ap¬ proximately 80 per cent of the entire manufacturing business of the coun¬ try. 1 had the pleasure of listening yesterday afternoon to a talk on pre¬ paredness by Mr, Henry A. Wise Wood, one of the Naval Advisory Counsel. Mr. Wood pointed out that Long Island, because of it.s position in relation to the country's industries, was a vital link that would be en¬ dangered if we were embroiled with any foreign foe. It therefore he- hooves us to guar this preclou.s key¬ stone, if our nation would survive,
"Incidentally, speaking of this topic, let me tell you that after this war l.s over, whether we are entangled or not, this country faces a very seri¬ ous Industrial problem. We ahould prepare for that now. The losing nation, no matter how high its efflci¬ ency has been in the past, will be com¬ pelled to let down the liars In regard to the employment of women and children in order that the huge In¬ demnities uf necessity raised by taxa¬ tion, may be paid. That means there wiil be a flood of cheap labor goods foisted on this coumry unless we adetjuately protect our workers. We are all working uow to secure the passage of the National Child Labor Lavv that shall end child slavery in this country, but in justice to our manufacturers we must have an abso¬ lute prohibition in our tariff acts agalnat the importation of any article made under conditions less humane than thoae we insist upon for our¬ selves.
"To show you conclusively how closely preparedneaa and child labor are linked, let me tell you that the greatest foe to adequate preparedness now Is Claude Kitchin, of North Caro¬ lina, mafjorlty leader in the House of Representatives. The greatest advo¬
cate of child slavery, who appeared before the Honse Labor Commlttei* recently, to protest against the Na¬ tional Child Labor bill, waa William Walton Kitchin, ex-Oovernor of North Carolina, and brother of the House leader. Thus you see Claude fights preparedness for thla generation and William fights preparedness for the generations to come."
Mra. Doane's services aa a speaker are very much in demand, she recent¬ ly having addressed the Long Island Council of Women's Clubs at their semi-annual convention in the Hotel Bossert. Brooklyn, and having made several speeches up-State, notably In Schenectady.

GAME WITH SUMMIT SCORE CLOSE 38—29.
FIVE—
Last Saturday night, in what proved to be one of the most exciting games of the aeason, Hempstead Ue- teated the Summit Five, score 38-29. This team took the place of the Brooklyn Separates, who were unable to appear. The game was filled with sensational team work and shooting of baskets, in which the Hempstead team excelled. The game started oil with the visitors making the flrat basket, but Hempstead came back with a basket and a foul goal, score 3—2. From thla time on until near tlie end of the game the acore would vary one or two polnta, flrst in favor of one side and then the other. With only a couple of minutes more to play, the Hempatead team caged three atralght baskets, which cinched the game.
Next week the visiting team will he Royal Triangles, a fast team from Brooklyn. This should be a good game.

The idea of a big corporation us a giant engaged oniy in enormous feats of power in dispelled in the case of the .Vew York Telepiione •'ompany i>y a brief survey of The Teleiihone Keview, the magazine publisho<l by the coni- pau.v for its employees, and wrltleii Inrgely by theui. A glam-e over the [luges of tills paper shows with wiiat iuflulte care and atletition to myriad details, witli what seientilic aeeurary in a seemingly liewildering maze of equipinent, the multitude of different oflices are performed, to the etui that telephone service as we know It mav tie con.siimiuiited

The editorial says in part:
In speakiii^r of tying and splicinif as little things we must not he misun¬ derstood as Implying that they are un importunt. for maintenanee cost and continuity of service largely de[>end upon them, and they are. therefore, of the utmost Imjiortaiice. They nre the Ilttle things, bowever. in the sense tbat each splice, or tie. is a small nnd situ pie piece of work
In principle, this la no different from the seemingly trivial thiugs all of us have to do in the course of a day's work. There Is a very close analogy between splicing aud tying telephone wires and splicing and tying the other Jobs we do su tbat operating cost« will lie reduced and efficient service ol)'- tained.

AFTER THE BULLTING SPARROW.
Forest Hills Audubon Plan to Wage War on Him.
At the last meeting of the Foreat Hill Audubon Society steps were tak¬ en to enlist the aervlcea of the boy scouts throughout the borough in ale¬ ing the bird wardens In protecting the birds.
There was also a discussion as to the course to pursue to restrain the pugnacious sparrow from Infringing on the rights of more desirable but timid birds, blue birds seemingly be¬ ing the ones most picked upon hy these little brown bullies, and the en¬ listing of the services of the boy scouts throughout Queena.
Bird feeding stations have been in¬ stalled to aid the few that remain all winter to tide over hard times, and 16 pounds of suet was tied high up in the trees by the Boy Scouta.

In fact, one thrush has condescended to un¬ usual familiarity and has become the pet of Mr. John Demareat, coming at regular tlmea to be fed and permit¬ ting close approach without any signs of fear.
