OBITUARY.


February IL, 1901 Mrs. Mary
Brownfield died at her home in Eldon
after brief illness.
Mary Whitton was born in Madison
county, state of Kentucky, June 2,
1916. When she was nine years OF
age her parents moved to Greensburg,
state of Indiana, where in the year
1S4S, March 20, she was united in mar
riage to DR.. William Brownfield. This
union was blessed with four children
two sons, John and William, and two
daughters, Ruth and Mary. Two of
them, Ruth and John, with her hus-
band, have preceded the mother. in
death.
In the year 1854 the family moved
from the state of Indiana and located
in Bonaparte. After one years resi-
dence in that place they removed, in
1855, to Ashland, Wapello county,
where they continued to reside until
the year 1872. when they located in
Eldon, where Mrs. Brownfield has liv-
ed to be highly respected by all her
many acquaintance. In the year 1912,
when she was twenty-six years of age,
she publicly professed faith, by
receiving the ordinance of baptism at
Lilc uduuo VI lSN. JOlu EdNSy. anu
united with the Missionary Baptist
church. She was consistent mem
Der during all of her subsequent life.
Two children, William. OF Eldon,
and Mrs. Mary Carr, of Ottumwa,
survive to mourn the irreparable loss
of their mother. The funeral was
conducted at the Baptist church in Ell.
don Tuesday by the pastor, Rev. A. w
Miller, assisted by Rev. Barker, of the
| M. e. church, and Rev. William

hmains were laid to rest in the Eldor
cemetery. % r

woMEN,s FIELD OF WORK.

One of the most difficult problems
at present before the people of this
country is that presented by the in
yasion of the industrial fields by wo-
men. In 1910 Harriet Martineau
found only seven gainful occupations
open to women, and of these but four
took them away from home. In 1890
nearly four million American women
were engaged in 260 out of 1853 occu-
pations; at the present time it is es-
timated that five million American wo-
men are engaged in about 400 gainful
occupations.
The percentage of women workers
is still larger in Europe than in this
country In 1890 only IL per cent of
American women were engaged in
what might be called bread-winning
occupations, while in Germany the
percentage was 25 and in England 81.
In France forty per cent of the factory
hands are women.
In an article in the New York Inde-
pendent Mr.. Finck asserts that this
invasion of the bread winning occupa,
ton must inevitably change the char
acter of the women unless it is check
ed. AS they obtain the same educa-
ton, engage in the same pursuits, fol-
low the same ideals, their thoughts
and feelings he believes, their tastes
and manners and even their features,
must gradually approximate those of
men. The final result then would be
the creation of sex antagonism
which can have but one Of two effects
There might be some reason for the
fears of Mr.. Finck If the conditions
were different in this country; if the
women who enter these occupations
were driven to them by stern necessity
and had nU means of escape. There
are various causes for this invasion
of the fields formerly held to be the
province of the sterner sex, and but q
4 small proportion of the women now
| occupying pOTIlOu VI Lie uSiu dIe
driven there by necessity. In many
cases women have saught these occu
| pations because they have come tt
chafe at the narrowness of the home
sphere. In too many cases the ne
ecssities of themselves and those de
pendent upon them are responsible
for the change in occupation.
There is plenty of evidence, how
ever that the ranks of the female
workers are in many instances crowd
ed by young girls whose duty is in thu
direction of relieving their mothers o
burdens borne too long and in adm,
to make their fathers home attractive
Others there are who are not satisfied
with whatgtheir homes provide an,
enter the ranks of the industrial worl,
ers to satisfy their desires for bette
. living and finer raiment.
