AS TO DIVISION OF LABOR With Changing Circumstances, Gener ally Accepted Definition Has Undergone Ilan;z ‘Changes. - . The division of labor is one of the principles evolved from the study of political economy, or econamics, and is based on the clalm that industry can best be carried on when each man has a special work to do. Constant practice in doing the same thing leads to a perfection which could not otherwise be attained. Though the name of Adam Smith (1723-1790), author of “The Wealth of Nations,” has been closely associated with the principle of the division of labor, the importance of it has been recognized before, notably by Plato (427-367 B. (), in his.“ Republic,” and by Adam Ferguson (1728-1816) in his “History of Civil Society.” In modern industry very little is due to the direct operation of the human hand; almost everything is done by a machine, The dévelopment of steam and electricity as the motive power both of production and exchange, has along with the parallel development of machinery completely revolutionized the conditions of industry, necessitating a division ¢f labor on a far wider basis than that contemplated. by Adam Smith. At the present day it is not a mere guestion ‘of personal adaptation, but of local, national and international fitness and specialization for carrying on different forms of industry. Division of labor has become only a factor in the wider problem of the organization of labor, necessary to the success of every great industrial undertaking.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. 5

SPEEDED UP POSTAL SERVICE

First Exclusive Transportation of the Malis, In 1878, Was Watched With Intense Interest. .

The first exclusive mafl train was placed In service Sept, 18, 1875. Leaving New York, it arrived on schedule time in Chicage the following day, after a journey of twenty-six hours. Great Interest was taken at that time in this all-postal train, which carried the western mafl from New York to Chicago at a greater speed than any passenger train eould command, and, furthermore delivered that mail at Chicago distributed and arranged for immediate dispateh to other lines, or for delivery by earrier in Chicago. With the beginaing of the year 1809 the mail betweem New York and San Francisco was also carried on fast trains, consuming less time than the fastest passenger traln. Fast trains between Chicago and Omaha ran the more than 500 miles in less than ten hours. = An Impertant feature of the new service was that by which mail bags were caught without stopping the trains, and which brought even small towns the benefit of speedy servics, the Detroit News states. o \ e ——eeee i N | Meatless Disg In a Hospital.
