l DOYIESTIC WORRIES

“I shank. sleep to-niglit, I shall be terrified of the rats!"

Alter Joe had gone to get stores from his “\\'harc," Mrs. Daintry grew fluntic with protest. The roar- mg wood fire, which Joe had made to air the mattresses, failed to add much comfort to the scene. The room was thick with dust, dull and dingy, with its old-fashioned. flow- ered paper, horsehair couch, and lllioleumed floor,

"it's a little rough. perhaps, but- ahl-it Wlll look better when its cleaned." Captain Daintry tried. to coax his wile into checrfulness.

"And who is gcin to clean it? I cant do it, and ‘m sure Myrls can't. No taps, no lights, no cook- ing arrangements, but an old range!"

Alemories of their Brook-st. flat, wizh its decorations by an ultra- nicdern artist, swam before Mrs. Daintrys eyes.

“Now, mother--” Myrle, lym - thetic and slightly impatient, pat her shoulder.

“I wasn't brought up to things like this I’vc never know what it is to be without two or three servants -or at least one. My mother always kept four."

“Things have changed in these days." Captain Datntry attempted to assure her. but Mrs. Daintry insist- ed hysterically:

“It will have to be completely re- decorated and done up before we can live here. We'll have to have new furniture, a. bathroom. I can't stay here as it ls-I retusel"

aptain Dalntry looked so miser- able that Myrle came to his rescue.

‘We ll have to stay here for to- night. anyhow. The first thing to do ls to get some food. That man said he would bring over some bread and eggs and bacon, There's tea in the picnic-box in the car. I'll boll a ket- tle on this ﬁre."

She slipped her ieet into her sod- den shoes; and, taking a. candle, made her way gingerly into the gloom of the lean-to kitchen. There was a huge old iron kettle on the range. Lifting it seemed to take most of her strenyth, and to ﬁll it she had to carry it out to the pump they had located earlier, out-side by the fence. lt was raining again. in gusts, which shook the dark tow- ering heads of thc pines. By the time she had overcome the diffi- culty of holding the gigantic kettle with one hand and Dumping with thelother, she was wet to the skin

ag n.

She scuttled inside at last. one thought foremost in her mind,

"Mother is perfectly rlglit~we simply can't stand this!”

When she came into the living- room her father was saying:

"I don't see how we could manage lt—ah!--really. I've worked every- thing out to the last shilling. There

OUR SWEET GIRL GRADUATES SHOULD BE SELF-SUPPORTING

Men Will Be Scarce When War Is Over; Getting Husband Called Sheer Luck

‘rhe schools are sending forth their ormlea of sweet ‘IE1 graduates who are about to face their first great battle with life. It a spectacle that always brings a lump into the throat of the beholder, for these little soldiers axe so brave, so gallant, so full of hope and faith, so ill-prepared for the dan era they must meet and so bewildered by them, and we old- sters know t at many of them will be maimed and broken in the struggle. many will be slain.

Every year this same human drama. is enacted when our girls, u the ironic phrase goes, “finish their education," but. never before has it had such significance as It has now when war has changed the status of their sex and when their country is calling upon the womanpower, as well as the manpower, to save It in its hour of need.

‘mic world which the sweet plrl graduate of today enters is a different world rom that which her mother knew. No time now for pleasant dalliance, for idle flirtatious, for gay parties, for

s. trifle hbrowed and very advanced, of which mother te in speaking of her own girlhood.

Now everything is grim reality, The party is over. There is no make-believe work. It is back-breaking and heart-breakin labor. Girls are not embroiderlng doilies. ey are making precision machines. They are not going buggy riding with their best beaux. They are not screaming at the sight of a mouse. ‘They! are daring death without the quiver of m eye d.

All these altered conditions have brought up strange, new, difficult problems that the modern Irl has to solve, for well she knows that life will never be for her what t was for her mother. when Mother was l rl she didn't know whether she wanted to go into business or not. Daughter knows she will have to be self-supporting. or starve-

It never crossed Mother's mind that she wouldn't marry and have a husband to take care of her- Daughter knows that after every war there are not enough men left to go around, and that even if she does get l. husband he may be so crippled. that she will have to be the breadwlnner. Mother made being a woman an alibi for sloppv work. Daughter knows that war took the sex out of work, and that if a woman expects a man's salary she must dc s. man's labor.

so when the sweet gllrl graduate of today sits down to try to plan her future, she should do a. ot of serious thinlnng and try to decide on some occupation for which she not only has a natural bent. but that she will be interested in doing the balance of her life. There is no use In her kid- ding herself into thinking that it doesn't make any difference whether she goes in for stenograph because Jane is doing it. or modeling because it must be fun to do nothlng but put on expensive gowns, because she won't be doing it for long, anyway, for the chances are that she has en- listed for the duration and the war with hard times is never going to be

over for her.

Nor need she deceive herself into the wishful thinking that It is not necessary to make herself proficient in her job because some man will soon come along and marry her and she will stand before a counter in- stead of behind it. When this war is over there will be millions more women than there are men in the world, and ettln s. husband will be an act of God, or sheer luck. So every girl shou d ma. e herself an expert in her line of work in order that she may command a. fat pay envelope instead of a thin one.

I ho that when the sweet girl graduate of '42 asks herself "where do l go rom here?" she will see that the only road. that leads to success is the rockv one of hard work, and that most of the women who travel are those who do commonplace, everyday things, such as superlative cooking, or tying a bow on a. hat that makes every woman want one. or cutting a dress so that it takes twenty pounds off a fat woman, or nursing

sick people.

But whatever she does and wherever she goes here's wishing the zyivtelethglrl, graduate good luck, and. as the Mexicans say, "may God walk er.’
