COUNTRY GIRLS FAIL TO
VALUE OPPORTUNITIES

Many young people in the country
especially girls, regard with disdain the
ordinary money-making plans that can
be worked out on the farm, because
they do not seem to yield large enough
! return. Forty or fifty dollars from the
sale of onion seedi" they say with con-
tempt What is that? Why. in the
city you can earn that much in few
weeksw
Thus the girl will not consider the
modest chicken business that she could
manage in her leisure hours, and that
| would give her an income of two or
three dollars week; she will not raise
Strawberries. or undertake other small
ventures. What she wants Is an occu-
patton that will yield from IS to $40 a
week-about what she could earn In
town.
Such occupations are rare, and when
they do exist, require, as rule. that
those who engage in them shall devote
their whole time to them. 1t should be
remembered that a dollar in the country
is worth much more than the dollar the
city girl earns-unless the city girl lives
at home and has a father who pays her
expenses and lets her keep her wages
for pin-money-
Suppose the girl in the city receives IS
week. She is obliged to spend at least
comes the laundry work, unless she does
it herself in her narrow little room. That
takes another dollar every week, IL she
wears white shirt waists. Two dollars
week remain for new clothes, car fare,
the daily luncheon. pleasures, toilet ar
ticles, and all the other things that girls
need. A little consideration of these
figures makes the 8 a week that the
country girl gets for her eggs or chick
ems appear somewhat more attractive
Several years ago young country
girl. who was making 81 or s. a week
from chickens and bees and garden crops,
became dissatisfied. Her father offered
her a weekly salary of s. if she would
stay with her mother, instead of trying
to get a place in a city, as she wanted
to do: and she reluctantly consented.
Out of that money she saved a substan-
tial sum every year and through judi
cious investments she now owns a farm
of eighty acres, worth more than 800 an
acre She soon discovered that a wide
awake country girl can find new and
profitable occupations every year, accord
ing to the season. and that she has
chances to save and invest her money,
of which the city girl never dreams
If you can earn 800 or 500 a year on
the farm, remember that the money will
go twice or thrice as far as it would in
the city: and. in addition, you have the
advantages of light, air, leisure, and
more comfortable living. By fitting two
or more ey-making plans together.
according to the seasons, the 81 or s.
a week can often be considerably in
creased

CLERKS WANT HOLIDAY.
Government Workers to Ask on on
July 8.

Several local merchants have signified
their intention of visiting the Secretaries
of the various government departments
for the purpose of getting them to pre-
sent before President Wilson the plan
of closing all the offices on Saturday.
July 5.
The preceding day. Friday, is a legal
holiday, and as the government employees
get off half a day on Saturdays during
July, August. and September. the argu-
ment is advanced that Uncle Sam would
lose practically nothing by giving his
employees the entire day to dispose Of as
they see fit.
Many of the local business men have
announced that they will close their
stores on the day following the Fourth.
The adoption of this plan gives employees
three days off-Friday, Saturday. and
Sunday.

beads strung by a child rather than ar

time ago for the best fastener for a
shirt waist. nothing was found to be sc
secure and satisfactory as the common
safety pin used in quantity.
