Once upon time. not a remote and
romantic time. however, il being in
May Of the good year 1909. stenog-
rapher in one of the fine offices down
town lost her job. That by itself Is
nothing to relate. for in the course of
business many good girls get posi-
tons and lose them. all too soon. But
this one lost hers by a process quite
too common 10 be just a process in
viting public attention.
Her employer was stung. Not that
she stung him; Indeed no; he was
stung b. an active culture OF the ba-
cili p. G.. Whenever this happens
the present incumbent Of a good po-
sition moves down and out. and the
p. G.. comes in. The other may be self
dependent, she may be a bread-winner
| for others, thoroughly competent and
making good every day, but none OF
| that counts with the p G..
Now a P. G. is only Pin-money
girl.
She is the girl whose food and cloth.
| ing and shelter are secured and sup
piled by a provident father. She is
one who has no experience Of where
penny counts" She has no problem
OF food and clothing, shelter and med
icine. Her problem is THAI OF candy
and gum, feathers and frill. and how
to keep "Cholly" guessing. She must
kill time IN some way and becomes,
therefore, a pin-money girl, receiving
The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1909-05-27

for the business she bungles and the
time she wastes. the pittance she aims
for the monthly wage OF a few bau'
bies and matinee ticket.
One thing. however she and her
parents and her employer do not seem
70 think Of. and hence this reminder:
Every pin-money girl in the city
crowds out a bread-winner. and re-
duces the chance of one other girl or
woman 10 earn her living. II life is a
game. the pin-money girl doesn't play
fair. II IL is battle she doesn't fight
fair.
Now there should be only welcome
for any young woman who. whatever
may be the circumstances OF her par
ents, desires an honorable share OF the
worlds work, who desires in the bust
ness arena TO make her own individ
nal. independent way to live her own
life and receive her own reward
With no reference TO her sex or cir
cumstance, by all means give every
woman a chance who would become an
honest worker The young woman OF
true ambitions Is never pin-money
I girl She is needed and wanted
But the other, the pin-money girl
whose presence in business is often a
nuisance. and TO those who work fol
their living always an injustice. should
be left TO such home employment as
her mother can devise.
She has no Just claim TO place In
the worlds army OF breadwinners.

HonoT 10 Horny hudson.

Doubtless the river bearing Hndson's
name would have been discovered and
had a great career Ia the development
Of this continent even II the renowned
English navigator had not dropped
anchor on Its mouth the iith Of Sep
tember, 1909. Robert Fulton would
have found It ready for bis expert
ments with steam navigation ia 1907,
and all that we value and admire
about this picturesque aud useful wa.
terway would have been just about
the same. Yet the credit OF opening
II up fell upon Hudson, and 1t Is prop.
er in this era Of historic celebration
and pageantry to recall before the
world some striking incidents Of the
past fortunes OF the American Rhine.
The planners Of a Fulton centen.
NAL for 1907 united with the commit.
tee which had In charge the Hudson
tercentennial, and a marine pageantry
worthy OF the great river and Of Its
heroes became possible. incidentally
tribute will lie paid to the Florentine
navigator, John verrazzano, who cast
anchor inside OF Sandy Hook In 1927
and left records which would doubt
less have led eventually to the dis
coyery Of the river emptying into the
bay by later explorers Of the Atlantic
coast, Henry Hudson braved the ter
rors Of unknown seas and savage wilds
to a purpose. Two years after he ven
tured up the Hudson river he found a
grave and a monument In the great
bay OF the northwest which bears his
name. Embodying the daring spirit
Of his time, he became verltable
pathfinder and created opportunities
for men like Yulton and races like
those which have developed North
America.

STREET IMPROVEMENTS.

There Is nothing that adds to the
appearance and permanent good OF
q city more than well paved streets
and uniform cement sidewalks. IN
this respect Occur d'Alene b besind
the advancement OF many cities no
larger and with prospects for the fu-
ture no brighter. As an example
OF what may be accomplished In
Identifying and improving the
streets OF city, the stranger In Sc
attic is impressed with the uniformity
OF street improvements In the resi-
dence district. The system adopt
ca In that city covering the reslden-
tial districts Il to lay a six foot ce-
ment sidewalk with eight feet Of
parking TO the curb: then comes the
street paving OF asphalt or other
permanent material. In the park
ing are shade trees and flowers.
which add to the inviting appearance
OF the design and combine to make
one or the most attractive streets
imaginable. Occur d'Alene should
adopt some such system and make
its enforcement effective by ordin.
ance. Under present conditions
there ID no uniformity la the Inn
proving Of our atreets and the artis-
tie 10 absolutely ignored or overlook
cd. To begin these things right and
profit BY the experience OF other cit
les will save both time and expense.
The city council ought to take this
matter mp IN it's street improving
campaign and In addition TO paw
ing the principal business streets
every sidewalk should DO Of ce-
ment in both the business and resi-
dence district. Other cities have dis
carded the old board sidewalk and
this city ought to do so. II 1t Is to
be eiassed as modern.
