Cutting Down Expenses
BY FLORENCE E. IODER

the salary is, so long as it means
enough money to spend on trifes.
'Of course, they find no difficulty in
getting a position. Managers like to
see their employees brisk and cheerful
about their work. This is easy when
you can afford to have a proper, hot
meal in the middle of the day, wear
well-made, comfortable, expensive
shoes that don't make your feet ache,
and can take a train or trolley to
and fro, regardless of expense. They
don't know what it is to be in such
chronic state of 'hard-up-ed-ness' that
you have to count every cent before
you spend it, and then feel guilty if
| you give a quarter for a new organdie
collar because mothers worrying
about the butchers bill at home It's
| the wear and tear of mind that gives
| the business girl the constant head
aches, that irritability of manner, and
the worn, harassed look which con-
trasts so SHARPLY with the placid, con-
tented expression and bright, breezy
manner of the worker who is only in
business because she likes it,"
| This letter is very far from an easy
one to answer There are two sides to
the problem, and both admit of equal
lily telling arguments This outcry
against the Pin-Money Girl brings up
the old answer-she has got her fu-
ture to think of. For example, when
her parents die, there may be very
little left for the maintenance of the
unmarried daughters. II she has no
trade. no profession at her fingers
end. what then is to become of her?''
On the other hand is the grim prob
lem of the girl who absolutely must
work for her daily bread, and against
whose chances of lucrative employ
ment the competition of the other girl
: strikes 6 severe blow.
: The solution of the problem lies will
l each so-called "Pin-Money Girl her
self If she feels that she is doing
right in earning money outside tn,
D home, then it is difficult part to dis
f suade her from continuing her work
a Yet my sympathies go out very strong
S " to the girl whose life is made harde
e by unnecessary competition, AM
t whose lot is cast in the drearie
t places of life.
