Sea- faring, tillage, house-building, horse-taming, so muses Sophocles, two thousand three hundred ENGLAND'S EFFORT 77 years ago; how did man ever find them out? "Wonders are many, but the most wonderful thing is man ! Only against death has he no resource." Intelligence — ^and death! They are written everywhere in these endless workshops, de- voted to the fiercest purposes of war. First of all, we visit the "danger buildings" in the fuse factory, where mostly women are employed. About 500 wome...n are at work here, on different processes connected with the delicate mechan- ism and filling of the fuse and gaine, some of which are dangerous. Detonator work, for in- stance. The Lady Superintendent selects for it specially steady and careful women or girls, who are paid at time-and-a-quarter rate. Only about eight girls are allowed in each room. The girls here all wear — ^for protection — ^green muslin veils and gloves. It gives them a curi- ous, ghastly look, that fits the occupation.
