Prince William sound, from a scenic
standpoint, is one Of the most beauti-

by far the most interesting and beau

any American transcontinental line

FARM GIRLS
CITY SISTER
Country Lass Is Independent and
Free From Terror Of Old Ago
and Poverty Which Clutches
Heart Of City Girl.
(By s. NJ. CLINTON.)

Farm girls who envy the girls OF
the city and imagine that they lead
lives of comparative ease and pleasure.
would have their eyes opened II they
really knew what city life means to
the working girl. The girl who has
TO earn her living with her hands in
great city is doomed to a life Of
drudgery. The great army OF scrub
women who swarm down town at
evening to clear up the great Office
buildings and stores tell the story Of
disappointed lives OF city working
girls.
Most OF these women come from
the great army Of young women who,
having become too old to serve as
cooks or maids In the smart homes of
the rich, or who have married poor
men unable to support them and their
families and are obliged to take up
the hardest and most menial work
that falls to the lot OF women. They
toll all night long sorubbing, cleaning
cuspidors, dusting rugs and furniture.
and earn only poor, bare living. To
this bitter end thousands come every
| year.
Working girls In a big city taste
little OF the sweetness Of life, but
much Of Its bitterness.
In order to live cheaply they must
rent rooms In the suburbs-a long dis.
tance from their places OF work. They
rise at daylight, ride many miles In
crowded cars. after standing. pushed
and jostled by rough men and after
long hours of hard work are pushed,
jostled and crowded In the fight for
standing room in the homeward.bound
cars at evening.
Many OF them are but little better
than slaves. The men who hire them
get every ounce OF work out OF them
that they are capable OF wringing.
They are obliged to register the time
OF arrival at the workshop and their
departure. They cannot leave the
workroom without permission. They
are often compelled to work with men
and boys. and in many cases the sur.
roundings are often decidedly unpleas.
ant and even revolving to girls of good
morals and clean minds.
No factory girl can hope to earn
more than bare living. Her clothes
must be Of the cheapest quality and
her food limited to actual necessities.
Her pleasures are few, because wher.
ever she goes she must pay, pay, pay.
The Raymer enterprise., 1911-01-12

She must count every penny for living
expenses. and when they are counted
there are none left for pleasure.
She has no social advantages. and
her acquaintances are limited to her
mates In the shop. who live miles
apart and can never be seen outside
OF working hours.
II she marries. 1t must be to some
man who, like herself, earns his llv.
Ing with his hands. and seldom little
more. The day she marries her wages
stop, or even II she keeps on at the
factory for few months. the first
baby stops her earning capacity. Then
there are three mouths to feed with
her husbands earnings only, and the
condition is worse than before. Pow.
erty is the evil of the city, and falls
heaviest on the women and chill.

The country girl may well contrast
her own condition with that of the

better. She has home with good
food and bed and clothing. and enjoys
the society Of her relatives and neigh.

which clutches the heart of every city
working girl who has passed the In.

her.

marrying well and rearing family in

better than that of the city girls. She
