NOME ALASKA. AUGUST 19, 1916.
('net again the versatile Henry Font
is to tht fori with a scheme which, if
he* puts it into operation, will further
enhance his ahead} unique reputation
for doing new 01 unusual things.
Ford has already earned more than
passing fame as an original character.
The wage increase and social im
provi merit plans, inaugurated at his
lactones, long ago made him one of
the most talked of men in America
while tils famous "peace expedition”
made his name a by word where! el
mankind walks in the beaten paths of
modern civilization. Incidentally he
lias acheived fame as a result of doing
a dozen or more other remarkable
things.
JHeyond question his name has been
on ih< tongue of more people tlt.it have
those of many of the world’s greatest
characters. .Many a person, even in
this modern day, does not know
whi ther Shakespeare was a native of
Kngland or Wisconsin but that same
person will usually be aide to tell
something about Henry Ford.
And always his name has been known
taeause of his doing something quite
out of the ordinary-something new or
unusn 1 and, usu.flly, something that
gasp of wonder at his singu
lar versatility, not to say, genius for
devising or effecting the unexpected
and extraordinary.
And now he is out with another
scheme which, if it has no other result,
will ail still further to this singular
fame.
According to an exchange. Ford is
•t pi* sent considering a plan where
by his workmen will enjoy a shorter 1
working day than most bank presi
de r.t<- o. i usines* men. If Ford suc
ceed* ,n 1, s contemplations his men
will wore ut *ix hour* a day and for
the same u «gc that makes them to
day the b— st paid workmen in their
line itt the world.
t'nue-r it* contemplated system the i
employ**-s of the great Ford auto i
factory will wore, in four shifts, each
:-.an working a straight shift of six
hours. Not only will they be the t*est
paid but will work the shortest hours '
of any class of mechanical laborers.
The scheme is not a new* one, of
course, as it lias been discussed by
economists for years. Since the
early days of modern industrial devel
opment, the days tif great factories
and immense outputs of manufactured
material, the six hour day has been
given consideration. It has long been
looked upon as practical to run a fac
tory on the six hour plan under cer
tain conditions and, if memory serves
right, it has been tried in several in
stances where extraordinary speed of
production was required. But, no one
has ever attempted to establish the six
hour day as a permanent institution
in the factory or workshop. Ford
however, finds that the demand for his
vehicles is steadily Increasing and he
must either increase the size of his
plant or else turn out more machines
from those already established. This
is said to be the underlying reason for
serious consideration of Hie four shift
plan.
Whether he will he able to solve the
various economic questions involved
in such an undertaking, remains to be
Seen. In any event the plan will add
*
not a little to his remarkable record
for attempting the unusual. w
CORNERED
HIMSELF
William F. Cody one day engaged in
a spirited taikiest with a white haired
grey bearded trapper, who was by the
Way of being I lie greatest and most
successful liar in the locality.
"Sho, Cody, that there bar story
o' yours ain't puppy high to a little
seance 1 had with an ol' she grizzly
■rack some twenty years ago. 1 come
on that pizen critter at th' mouth ot
a'caiiyon. Zing! 1 plops a shot fom
my ol* muzzle loader into her, but
she don’t even tarry, on she comes
thoul given’ me nary chanst F load.
1 th'ows th' gun at her, hits' her on
ih' snoot an' lakes out up th' canyon j
with th' ol' gal plum' mad, pitty pat
tin' after me.
"We runs fur 'liout a mile, she pad
din' along la-hind an' gainin' a bit.
Them canyon walls kept gcitin' high-J
er an' smoother an' narrower ntii |
they was about a thousand feet up. I
an 1 could most touch each side. I
couldn't slim' 'em uf I’d tried, an'
that she varmint wasn't given' me
no chanst. Ail of a suddint th' path
got still narrower till me an' the bar j
nad to most squeeze through, an' j
then I came slap into a straight up
wall in front o' me. There X was,
slick as glass walls on three sides
and th' mad h'ar pitty pattin' ten
feet in m' rear. Couldn't go ahead,
turn round nor go straight up."
The trapper paused, enjoying the j
deep sill tfee of the crowd.
• Yes. ISut what did your bear do?"
asked Cody.
The old man's face begun to take ;
on the purplish hue of pent emotion.
XXis features strained and twitched
as his brain sought a way out of his
jwn mendacious cul-de-sac. Looking
helplessly around and meeting no )
.riendly glance from the audience, he |
finally blurted out:
"By gum, she killed me!” Samuel '

LINCOLN'S PHILOSOPHY.
Whereas, God Almighty lias given
to every man one mouth to lx- fed and
■ me pair of hands adapted to furnish
food for that month, if anything ean
lie proved to lie the will of heaven it
is proved by this fact that that mouth
is to lie fed by those hands, without
being interfered with by any*other
nmil who has also his mouth to feed
and his hands to labor with. 1 hold,
if the Almighty lmd ever made a set
of men that should do all the eating
and none of the work, he would have
made them with mouths only and no
hands, and if he had made another
class that he intended should do all the
work and none of the eating he would
have made them without mouths and
with all hands Abraham Lincoln.
