To get with the self-styled elete with
white soft hands and head to match
may be the highest asperation of some,
but our admiration and sympathy is with
the girl that works. The brave active
girl that is not afraid to earn her own
living, not ashamed to be seen with her
sleeves rolled up at her household
cares. She smiles at you from behind
the counter or desk. There is a mem
ory of her sown into each silent gown.
She is like the beautiful mountaineer
already far up the hill and the sight of
her is an inspiration. 1t is an honor to
know her, though her hands may be
stained with printers ink, factory grease
or hardened by sweeping, but they are
honest and priceless in value. She
stays misfortunes from the home, shields
and helps the family in distress, she is
an angel in purity as we'll as in her
power to comfort EX.
