Alkali Workers tong Familiar With
Poison Clouds Used by Germans
The deadly chlorine gas that 1s be-
ing used by the Germane is utilized
for more peaceful ends by the alkali
workers at Widnes and St Helens,
England.
For chlorine is the gas welch, pump-
ed
umped on to slaked lime, transforms this
Into bleaching powder. The workmen
nicknamed it "Roger"; why. nobody
seems to know. But the term is uni-
versally used. and always quite readily
understood, for at the cry "Roger's

But 'Roger," In the shape of a green.
perceptible. and palpable poison, fog -
borne along on the wind, follows hard
on their heels; and woe betide the
poor wretch who stumbles and is over-
taken by it. Such a one Is said to be
"gassed," and the alkali workers af-
firm that no one who has once under-
gone the expertenc' is ever again safe

thing wrong with his breathing.
This, however. only applies to men
slightly- gassed. What the workers

but despite everything accidents fre-
quently happen.
Nevertheless, constant familiarity
with this particular danger breeds a
certain amount of contempt for 1L as
for most others, and the regular alkali
workers often speak slightingly, and
even jestingly, of "Roger." They even
make use a him for their own ends
upon occasion. For Instance, the fac-
tory yards are sometimes Infested by

men's dinners. A favorite dodge Is to

from a distance came with a donkey

to some chemical works,where bleach-

WOMAN AS A CITIZEN
Mrs. Nellie McClung on the Respo..
sibillties of the Ballot
Here are a few excerpts from an
addrtss dellrered in the West,- t y
Mn. Nellie McClung, the charming
speaker and writer known to women
everywhere throughout Canada:
"It la argued sometimes that a
man's grandmother did not wont the
vote," else sa'd. "1t she was alive
to -day she would want 1t. With the
introduction of much modern labor,
saving machinery- into the home the
woman is •now the k . 'red class.
She had bran scouted o' passing her
time in frivolous things. All serious
things have been closed to her. The
tendency of olvtltzatton has been to
make her light and frivolous. I hope
that the opening up of activities for
women, throwing upon the woman
greater responsibilities, will result In
making woman measure up to het
respoualbllllies."
She voiced the. Injustice of the 10.
equality of the eriminal code,- which
made the punishment for astatine a
cow 15 years. Won't that suMcient
to make people think'
She asked If 1t was always going
to happen that drink and war could
take their children, while they didn't
have a voice In it a11. But It was
not going to continue when women
appreciated ..that they had put too
small am estimate upon themselves.
"We blame the military spirit of
Germany, and properly," she said,
"Out we also think bitterly of the
apathy of the German women wbo
sat by and watched lheee things hap

patient and good and self-sacrificing.
if the theory was good that the wo-
