The Family Servant.

An American housewife, reading the
traditional English novel, usually
signs covetously for such servants as
the story depicts, old established, I'M
obtrusive, faithful in their duties, de-
voted in every way to their employers
interests, to the end. She reads of
these seemingly ideal conditions, and
then the apparent hopelessness of the
American servant problem confronts
her. And she is apt to resume her
home affairs with the philosophic re-
mark, whats the user"
From merely asking What's the
user" one American householder has
undertaken t. find out. OF course
he is a man, OF he would not 81 en-
Enthusiastically embark in an undertake

petent wives. This visionary husband
has grown weary of inQuiring, Where
read about, who was a family fixture
and an heirloom to the second genera
ton, who shared the family's inter

times, it's burial ground7" He has
determined to discover her. And
when he has found not only her but
him, for he has need Of several such
servants of both sexes, in the operation
Of his estate, he proposes to demon
strate that the old-fashioned servant
is as possible today in real life as
she is in the pages of the story-book.
This may sound like a hopeless
quest, and is apt to remind the Jest
ing public of Diogenes n his hunt for
the honest man. But the readiest
Jester will wish the Investigator sue
cess in his search, for many a house
hold long has yearned for Just such
a servant. though hope was long since
abandoned.
The truth Of the matter probably
is that the extinction of the old-fash-
toned ervan in this country has been
brought about by the extinction of the
old-fashioned home. Masters and
mistresses no longer treat their serv-
ant as was done in the old days-al-
most If not altogether as an equal.
We are all familiar with the argument
of the girl OF woman that she can
make better wages and have better
hours in other fields OF usefulness
than in the work OF the household.
She who desires TO do homework gem

Note that the democratic plea for
non-partisanship is a plea for the cleo

Three regents Of the State univer-
