...Goodie", seeing a mouse in a dormitory fireplace, should climb upon a cane-seated chair, with a resulting sudden descent and sprained ankle, would the University be liable for damages? If a Yard man-with-a-hoe should fall while pursuing a Yard squirrel, would the University be obliged to pay his doctor's-bills? If one is to judge by cases cited in a recent report of the Labor Board, the answer of both these questions is; Yes. The array of problems that have recently come up for its consideration are a reductio ad absurdum of the compensation...

It occasioned an apparent dearth in all other industries and they began bidding against one another for the remaining supply. Only those industries that could pay the highest wages could get labor.

The unusual demand for labor also drew into industry multitudes...

...learn with regret that the company which two weeks ago made its apparently successful debut at the Copley with "Ruddigore" has come to a sudden end. The illness of one of the leading performers and a dwindling patronage are the rumored cause of this untimely debacle. By one of those freaks of luck so common in the theatrical game, a company, blessed with no little talent and a house of proper size for the audiences which its work should attract, has nevertheless been unable to keep its head above water. It is a curious thing that Boston is not only...
