Girls Living on $3.50 Per Week.

Here is what a working woman
thinks Of the future of $3.50 girls;
"A girl with no one but herself tC
support can live in New York on $3.50
a week
But is she not. likely to be pale
anaemic and weak a great part OF the
time?
And If she is later married is she
not likely to be the mother OF pale
weak. anaemic children?
Strong, vigorous men and women
are the children. for the most part Of
mothers who grew up in homes where
food, though plain, was unstinted.
Things that We're necessaries to
enc might be luxuries to another
when there is a peace of mind.
hard work and priyation do not affect
the human frame very much.
Combined work and lack Of nour.
ishment will defeat the strongest
heart.
Clothes are like machinery. They
need upkeep.
Good healthy children mean good
citizenship in the years to come. Ner-
yous strain would result very likely
in leaving its mark upon her children
and grandchildren.
"A girl can live on $3.50 a week and
be honest, but she ought not TO be
made to live on so little"
