Charming Wedding Ceremony
Brooklyn Tuesday.
The wodidng of James Tierney, in,

solemnlzed at Our Lady of Lourdes
R. 0. Church, i-n Brooklyn, yesterday,

friends of the contracting parties.
After the ceremony a wedding break-
fast was served at Silsbo's,- Brooklyn,
after which Mr. and Mrs. Tierney left
on a short wedding trip. On their re-
tum they still recide in New York.
The presents to the couple were gor-

beeii added by the action of their leg-
islatures during sessions which have
just mine to a close. This growth of
the movement toward safeguarding
the welfare of the laborer and his de-
pendents, is revealed in .the summary
of this year’s legislative activities,
which has been compiled by The As-
sociated Press. .The summary also
shows progressin the abolishment of
child labor and in the direction 01
limiting the working hours of minors
The additional states. to adopt
workmen's compensation are Wyo-
ming, Montana, Oklahoma, Colorado,
Maine, indiana, Vermont and Penn
syivania. Favorable action toward
the enaction of such a measure was
also taken ‘by the legislature of Utah,
which created a commission to inves-
tigate the question and report a bin
for the consideration of’lhe next leg-
lslniure. in one state which consid-
ered the matter, New Mexico, a pro
posed workmen's compensation law
passed the House but was defeated
in the Senate. In Idaho, the bill was
vetoed by the governor. Several Olli-
P)‘ states revised their former laws in
order to insure more omclent oper-
ation. " '
Somewhat different standards as etc
the way in which compensation should
be awarded and the law administered
are shown in the measures enacted
this year, but this lack of uniformity
is also a feature of various laws pre»
viously passed in other states. F01
instance, under the new Colorado
statute injured Workman will receive
50 per cent. of their wages during in-
capacity. though not to exceed $8 a
week. in case of tolal permanent
disability, the compensation is pay
able through life. When death re-
sults from the accident. the work-eds
family is to receive a similar amount
for six years with a maximum of $2,
500. in case of loss of eyes, hands,
limbs or other members, similar my
meals are to be made for a specified
period. varying from a few weeks to
four years, dependent upon the na-
ture of the injury.
”Employers are required to insure
payment either in a state insurance
fund to be created or a mutual or
stock insurance company. Adminis-
tration is placed in the handsofan
industriatcommissiou of three mem-
bers who shall adjust disputes and
with aufimrltybmmake avards iflem-
ployers or insurance companies use
lect to make payments promptly.
Court proceedings are therefore prac-
tically eliminated.
The Maine law, however, awards
her injured workmeh payment by the
employer of not more than 8101 a

a maximum of $3,000. Heirs In case
of death receive the same and the

GOOD ADVERTISING PAYS,
Expert Claims That Present Day
Newspapers Bring Better Results
Than Ever Before.
CHICAGO,Ju11e Ear—Present day
newspapers are a better advertising
medium than ever, because they have .
a more gripping national power— a
power that should be studied by every
thinking advertiserw— Joseph H. Finn,
of Chicago. told delegates attending
the annual convention of the A530
here today.
Mr. Finn spoke of the‘ Mileiispflpel,
the advertiser, and the advertising
agent.” He declared that adveitising
is the. news about merchandising, and
that. there was nothi closer to the
'hearts of the reading on lic than the
‘live news concerning buying oppor-
tunity. " ~
“I believe in the efficiency of neWs-
paper advertising," said Mr. Finn,” b-e
cause i have seen what 1 can do in
such a variety of lines, covering such
a leergence of propositions'that the
possibility of look or accident must be
eliminated from consideration!’
‘ It“ is the paper which publishes the
true news that-11112711 the advertiser
best," the speaker said.
‘ “Generally speaking, the best news-
paper is the one which secures the
beat advertising," Mr. Finn continued.
And the best advertising is what helps
a’make it the best newspaper. Truth is
the slogan of the convention. Truth is
the slogan of the newspaper that hopes
to win the most lasting success—«ho
widest influence! ‘
‘It is the truth that good times and
bad are each largely a matter of psy-
chology. In this respect, the power of ,
the newspaper is almost beyond reck- ‘
oningv"
