/. When a Pretty Girl Hunts q. Job.

"I'm afraid" said the man
who had advertised for stenog-
rapher, relates the Chicago Rec
ord Herald, "you are too pretty.
My experience has been that
beautiful girls are not likely to
be much interested in their work.
They are usually too busy think
ing of themselves. Still, if you
wish to have me give you trial
| will be glad to do so. Have
you any references?"
enc" she replied with little
smile that enabled her to show
her splendid teeth" "I'm sorry
that you want references. You

other place, and the man who
employed me was angry when l
left him, so | didn't ask for a let

"What was the trouble2"
"Well, he tried to hirt with

"And you wouldn't allow that,

A Warning.

| In thousands of families ia our
country to-day, the women are
the wage-earners, while the hus-
bands are loafers, or worse.
Charity-workers in England have
long recognized the tendency of
certain influences in modern life
to bring about this wretched do
nestle condition, and have tried
to eradicate them. "The woman
| works; the man boils the KETTLE"
is the succint English description
of the life of such family.
In our American civilization
the evil has developed with a
farming rapidity in the last 20
years. IL is by no means confin-
ed to Submerged tenth' of the
city slums. Hardly q couatry
village but has its shameful ex-
| amples of the misery brought a
bout for mothers and children,
and even for neighbors, by the
unnatural confusion of RESPONSE
bility where the husband is
dead weight in the household.
The manager of large firm
employing many women recently
reported that fifty per cent of the
women are married; and he add
ed, suggestlvely, "The girls have
almost all married very young.
The husbands were laborers of
low grade when they married,
and soon sank to lower level be.
cause they became idle, and Fore
ed the women to earn the living
for both"
1t is easy to point the moral of
this sad tale. When it is enforc-
ed, girls will realize that marri-
age is not mere prolongation of
some lively holiday, but one
phase of a long struggle with
everyday conditions-not ohoco-
lates and ice-cream soda, but
bread and butter and meat and
potatoes. Marriage has room
enough for happiness and for sem
timent, but its four-square foun.
dation ought to be good sense,
industry, courage, and that loyal
comradeship which shares alike
| in work and in pleasure.

satisfaction he decided to make
his own.
He had finished the mill and
entered the crank chamber thru
an entrance between two of the

the wind arose and set the mill

A Student at Gardiner

Talbot Is q years. feet inches in
height and weighs $50 pounds. He was
a student in Gardiner High and made
the first team in his Freshman year,
playing center field. In this position
he also played during his Sophomore
year. In his Junior year he was shift
ed to second base and filed admirably
the place made vacant by Harold
Cobb's moving to Livermore Falls.
The excellent quality of his work dur
ing these three years earned for him
the captaincy in his Senior year
During his last year in High school
he was forced to catch and had hard
luck, having to sit on the bench and
nurse broken finger. With George
Talbot out of the game the team
seemed to lose confidence as he was
always q dependable hitter. Although
somewhat light he made the football
team in his Junior year and year
later began to attract attention in
football. He played right halfback and
displayed the courage of a bulldog.
In his Freshman year at Bates he
tried out for football and made his
B." interchanging with the regular
quarter, Remmert. In baseball he
made good at once, center field being
his position. covering his territory like
a deer and ranking as one of the best
hitters on the squad. He justified the
confidence placed in him in all places
and in his Sophomore year made reg
ular quarterback in the eleven, being
picked by many for the "Al-Maine"
eleven.
At baseball he caught frequently
while a Sophomore. during injury to
the regular catcher and played at
short beside his regular position at
center This year he has done all the
catching and it has been death unto
the man wro tried to steal bases. Tai
bot has also shown much ability in
track running on his class relay team
and last spring won out in the hurd
les of the inter-class meet.
He has two brothers now on the
Gardiner High baseball team, one of
whom, Philip. is slated for the cap
taincy next year and would not sur
prise his Gardiner friends if at some
future date he occupied the same po-
sition on the Bates team.
