But as Helen went down the three

the street swarming with children, she
had little hope of the girl coming.
In spite of the better wages, better

leaves a factory to return to service

DENY RE-HEARING TO
INDUSTRIAL ROADS
TBY LEASED WIRE

WASHINGTON, May 21.-The in
terstate commerce commission denied
a reh earring to the industrial railroads
east of the Mississippi on their appeal
for a division of through rates in cases
from which the haul is completed by
industrial or tap lines.
The commission decided that these
industrial lines except in isolated cas-
es are plant facilities and to divide
through rates with them would
amount to a rebate to the plant.

Interesting Memory Test.

Ask anyone to draw a representation
of a watch face with Roman numbers

the unreliability Of incidental memory.
OF two hundred persons examined by

only twenty-one put I'LL instead of the

ACCORDED A HIGH POSITION
Women of servia, Well Educated and
Able, Are Companions Of Their
Husbands and Brothers.

There is no country in the world
where women occupy more dignif1ed
position in the home than Servia The
Servian idea is quite different from
that Of the Turk. who keeps his wom-
en- behind shut doors or the German.
whose ideal woman is hausfrau- In
Servia the woman is the companion of
the man.
A man is responsible for his un-
married sisters. and throughout the
Balkan states it is considered rather
a breach of etiquette for him to mar
ry before his older sister.
No Servian girl would feel she coulo
hold up her head In society unless
she could speak four languages. There
is hardly Servian woman who can
not play some musical instrument.
Embroidery. painting. drawing. and
sculpture are all studied. Politics is
popular feature among women.
Servian women are very domesticat.
ec and the highest ladies pay personal
attention to trivial natter OF house
keeping.
There are two women doctors prac.
ticing in Belgrade. and several WON
en- teachers. But public opinion. on
the whole, is rather against women
entering the labor arena.
