The Incentive to Save
To the Editor of the Evening. Star:
ILL., I.....Aa..a 49,

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
What incentive has the average
woman to practise economy and save
her earnings?
A social worker desiring to get sta
tistics as to the economy practised by
self-supporting women, interviewed
them in large numbers. She found
out that the majority of -earners
do not save their money. Asked why
they did not do so against the Prov
erbial rainy day." the answer was
given again and again, well. l. did
save my money by going without the
things / craved, but when / had a
nice nest egg a man induced me to
let him invest 1t for me, and ] lost it,
so / determined after that l would
have what / wanted and not think
about saving" What argument can
be raised against this reasoning? Yet
women are the ones who need the pro-
lection of something to fall back on
A man can turn himself in many ways
when worse comes to worst and take
chances without detriment to himself
or his standing, but with woman
it is an entirely different matter she
cannot leave the beaten path as she
has followed it all her life for the
will-o-the- wisp. of adventure.
2 What the loss of savings means to
women has been shown all too clear
ly the last few months right in our
own city. and ever since the Roseville
bank closed it's doors one day last Au-
gust there have come to light touch
ing and heart-rending tradgedies,
while many more just as tragic are
being borne silently and with closed
lips. Ordinarily the public reads the
headlines Of such an event .ehronicled
in the pages of the daily papers, the
matter becomes common talk for a

/ interest of something more gripping.
But this defalcation has been far
reaching and the end is not yet!
On Monday a strong, sturdy woman
dropped dead. The shock to those
who knew her was great, until the
Analysing light of facts was turned
on the matter, then wonder ceased
that the physical gave way When
this woman learned that the bank to
which she had entrusted her savings
was insolVent, her face became aShen
gray, her eyes lustreless and staring.
The loss meant her all. For years
she had spent all her time in paint
ing, in china decorating and exquisite
embroidery. Her deft fingers caused
roses to bloom in wondrous tints, vio-
let's to blow so naturally that one felt
the elusive fragrance was there also.
She carefully made investments, but
eventually turned her savings into the
Roseville bank-and then! everything
was filched by the relentless hand of
the defaulter. Still she went on her
way, working and doing, for her life
was not one of selfishness. She did
for others in the finer way that
neither seeks nor asks reward But
the physical strain was too much the
disappointment too keen, and Mon
day she laid down her work forever,
Again, close following upon this in
stance, comes the tragic end OF the
East Orange milliner, who brooding
over her losses through the same
channel, sought a quick end to the
struggle of life by her own hand.
Many more cases could be men,
toned of women who are doing with
out the things they had planned for,
little trips for recuperation needed to
build up the health, or funds that
were to be applied for schooling of
the younger members of the family.
SO the question again comes up,
What incentive has a woman to save
her earnings?

backers) ready to play the hoid-up
game on any successful contractor or

pressed in a nutshell by a valued

"Why Do the People of the State of
New York Blackmail Their Contract

We can best answer that question
by asking another, Yankee fashion:

New York put into high Office men

organized system of blackmail to be
conducted?"

Noted Women Whose Birthday Is Yours
BY MARY MARSHALL.
DEcEM Der II
Anne of Denmark
Copyrighted. 1918.


When Anne, wife of James L, was a
little girl the court etiquette of Den
mark was so severe that the princess
was not allowed to touch her royal
foot to the ground. but was carried
about in the arms Of nurses until she
was nine years old. But this delay
in learning how to walk did not seem
to have any bad effect upon her.. for
when Anne came to England it was
said that never had there sat upon
the throne of England a queen who
could dance so well as Anne. She was
born December IL, 1874, the daughter
of the king of Denmark, and among
the early accomplishments she learned
was the art of caligraphy Speci-
mems of her writing to this day show
a handwriting of exquisite precision.
When it, came time to marry the
princess was betrothed to James,
then king of Scotland, and an anbas
sador and his train were sent over to
Denmark to fetch her. She was mar
ried in August by proxy to the am
bassador. and a few days later the
princess and her suite, with the am
bassador and his train, sailed back
toward Scotland. High seas were
raging just off the coast of Denmark
and the royal party were for some
weeks lost at sea. During three whole
nights the storms were so great that
the brides ship was, to all intents
and purposes, lost to the ambassa-
doris ship. Several times they had to

a central library containing books and
periodicals relating to the subjects of
the museums.
This is the first project looking to-
ward the establishment of museum
of science and industry to take deffn-
lite form in the United States. The
outline is splendid in its breadth and

husband of a wife he had never seen,
was waiting impatiently in Scotland.
Finally he decided to put~to sea to
look for his delayed queen. He met
her on the coast not very far from
her home in Denmark, where winter
gales had penned her in. His

at the meeting of Anne and James,
was minded to give her kiss after
the Scotch fashion, which she re-
fused as not being done in her coun-
try. After a few words privately
spoken between his majestic and her
there passed familiarities and
kisses" But the weather continued
to be so rough that the royal pair
went back TO Denmark and there re-
manned till they could set Off safely
to Scotland in the spring.
Annes new Scotch subjects de-
clared her to be beautiful. she had a
marvelously fine complexion, all
agreed, though one critic remarks that
"her complexion was far more anna
BILE than the features it covered" II
is a matter of history that in 1903,
when Anne was twenty-six. King
James of Scotland was called to be
James l. of England, and Anne, there
fore, was Queen of England. She was
a good queen as queens go, but re-
markable only for her fine dancing,
her faultIess handwriting and her
good complexion.

Indian. In this connection the re-

northern Mongolia, especially on the
