Maine’s Illen Go Lum-
baring
An interesting result of the
shortage of labor in the United
States is reported by a represen-
tative of one of the large paper
making companies, who is author-
ity for the statement that there
are now more native Maine men
in the lumber camps of that state
than has been the case at any
previous time in the last ten years.
Better pay and shorter hours in
other ceilings drew many Maine
men away from the woods a few
years ago. Their places were ta-
ken by immigrants from northern
Europe, Russians, Finns, Swedes
and Norwegians for the most
part.
Now these foreigners are leav-
ing. There has been a steady
exodus of them for several years,
and at present the woods are
pretty well stripped of them. \Vhy
they gave up their jobs is a mat-
ter for which there is no apparent
explanation. Life in the lumber
camps is attractive for men not
afraid of hard work. The wages
paid are good. The food furnish-
ed is generally excellent. The
camp buildings are well heated
and well lighted. Isolation from
populous centers is rewarded by
money accumulations isolation
makes possible. Besides, the iso-
lation is not always depressing, as
might be imagined. Many of the
camps have regular entertain-
ments. Some of them have mov-
ing pictures and in many there
are illustrated lectures of an edu-
cational nature.
On the whole, the Maine woods-
.men live a hearty, thrifty, whole-
some life. They have better pay,
better food, better environment
than are to be found in any of the
old country centers of the lumber
industry, \\ here wages range from
67 to 78 cents a day in Finland,
and from 95 cents to $1.35 in Swe-
den ‘and $1.71) in Norway—barely
enough to meet the cost. of living.
Yet the foreigners left the Maine
woods and many of them went
back to their homes. Others
found work in towns and cities.
It is something of a psychologi-
cal mystery. Yet the key to it is
not very far to seek. Plain home-
sickness is at the bottom of the
departure of those who left the
country. With money accumu-
lated in considerable amounts and
with modern facilities for travel
at relatively small cost of time
and money, the temptation for
these men to go back to their old
homes proved irresistible. Sudden
migratory impulses on the part of
labor groups are among the con-
sequences of modern swift and
cheap means of transportation.
But the Pine Tree State forests
are not deserted by a good deal.
Maine lumbermen, than whom
there are no better in the world,
are going back to the woods once
more from small farms and from
industrial centers.
The vacancies left by the de-
parting foreigners are not yet all
filled. In the Maine woods, as in
about all other parts of the coun-
try, the demand for labor still ex-
eeds the supply. But the short-
9 is decreasing. Twenty years
-0 the forest work of Maine be-
-ed to Maine men. They

. ng back to their own again.

for the purpose of establishing,
in connection with the Smithson-
ian Institution, :1 National Mu-
seum of Engineering and Industry
\i'illl'll shall register accurately
the march of applied science in
American indllstry.
The societies putting forth this
effort are the American Institute
of Electrical Engineers, the
American Institute of Mining and
Metallurgical Engineers. the
American Society of (‘ivil En-
gineers and the American Society
of Mechanical Engineers. The
task upon which they have em-
barked is one that will require
both time and money, but it is
eminently worth while to pre-
machines and processes that mark,
step by step, the swift evolution
of productive methods. The local
display is the beginning of a great
institution that in time will be—
come a focal point of interest for
American youth.
