CAKE BAKING WON TRIP ABROAD
Young Southern Woman Earns $500 by
Working Few Hours Day.


The money with which am paying

woman.
There are not SO many ways for

lows and comrades. They became
as adept in the use of the lasso and
6-shooter as their husbands and broth
ers, and could round up herd with
dizziness equal to that of the more
properly designated cowboy.
The present day women rider of the
West is now as much of a horsewoman
for enjoyment as for work. She keeps
up her riding for the fun she gets out
OF it, nothing more. She is still able
to throw the lariat. but the accomplish
ment is not essential. The husband
does the work. She keeps house"
Life on Il cattle ranch now is much
the same as that on big Eastern
farm.
The cowgirl of today is as much in
tercsted in Partisan fashions and So
cial affairs as many women in the
East, and when one of these women
travels Eastward she is generally ac-
companied by several trunks, packed
brimful of up-to-the minute gowns and
lingerie.
Women Enjoy the Lark"
Oftentimes the wives and sisters of
the men who have charge of the big
cattle ranches take part in the break
ing of wild horses. not because they
are expected to. but because they en-
joy the lark"
Nearly every young woman born on
a Western cattle ranch is able to do
finished work as a bronco buster"
If she cares to, but she is becoming
less and less fond of the job every
year. Now the bronco buster" is a
specialist who travels from one ranch
to another, and breaks in the green
animals as they are needed.
Before long we will have to be con-
tent with descriptions of the cowgirl
as given by the travelling exhibitions
that depict early Western life and Gus
toms. Like the cowgirl and the Indian
she is fading into the past
Five young women now filling pro-
fessional engagements with exhibitors
that describe the life of the cowgirl of
the past are Eileen Anderson, Pearl
King. Alice Lee. Hazel Moran, and
Lulu Parr. All these girls are crack
shots. and have given evidence of
their prowess in all the civilized coun-
tries Of the earth. Miss Parr has a
bulldog presented to her by King
George V when he was Prince of
Wales.-Detroit News-Tribune.
