OWE DEBT o WOMEN
British Government Acknow-
edges Aid of Fair Sex.
Momentous Question at the Close Of
the War VIII Concern the Dis
position Of Those Who Have
Taken Places of Men.

In Great Britain there are two sub
1ects occupying the attention Of WON
en- Just now. The first is how best
to keep in touch and train the women
who volunteered their services to the
government at the beginning Of the
war and who have not yet been called
into service. The second is whether
or not the women who are holding
positions formerly occupied by men
shall spend their wages or hoard 1t.
Considering this question the women
point out that everybody, the whole
nation, is being urged to spend, to
keep the money in circulation and to
help ease the financial situation for
the sake of the country.
On the other hand, the majority of
these women are dependent on their
exertions for a. living, and many of
them had been out of work when
taken, on by the government in place
of men gone to wal. Now when the
war ends and these men return they
will lose their jobs. At club meet
ings, indeed at practically all gath
erings of women, even over the tea
cups, this question is being seriously
discussed.
Along with 1t and of equal import
ance is the question of keeping to-
gether and rendering more efficient
that part of the $4,000 women volun-
teers for whom the government has
SO far found no need. The latest and
so far the most practical solution to
this problem is to establish a train
ing school for these women volun-
teers. This school to be operated
through the war Office, the women
to be paid for their time and work,
and be trained for the fields in which
they will sooner or later be needed
To get the best results it is urged
that there should be a board of voca'
tional advisers in connection with the
work.
In spite of the fact that these WON
en- offered their services at the re
quest Of the government, men il
various occupations have refused tt
serve with them. The most pro
nounced stand was taken by the tran
drivers and conductors in Edinburgh
When the first crowd of men left the
company to go to the front the com
pany tried to put women in theil
places as tram conductors. The mer
working on the lines refused to worl
with women conductors, SO the com
pany was forced'to hunt up other mer
to take the place of those gone t.
war.

An Indianapolis woman who recent

story of a farmer who was visiting

"And the Mayos gave this library
to the city, and this church was built
by the Mayos, and the money for this
school was contributed by the
Mayos," informed his host, as they
sped about the city seeing the sights.
well, that is wonderful" said the
farmer. They certainly have made

SHOULD NOT
HAVE MOVED
Story Of a Man Who Was Max
ing Good, but Rowing Fever
Got the Best of Him.

On May 4th. 1915, the st. Paul Farm
er's Dispatch contained a very inter
esting account of the experiences of q
man from Staples, MINI. Realizing
that he was not making much head
way, he decided to look up a home
stead in Canada. With $3.50 he and
his wife took up a homestead near
Outlook, Saskatchewan. After recount
ing his experiences of a few years, in
which they had undergone h~ardships
which were likely to be unavoidable,
with a small amount Of capital, he
continues the story by stating that
in the fall after a fair summers work
on his 100 acres cropped, he cleaned
up nearly all his debts, having now
four good horses, a complete set of
farm machinery including two wagons
and a Swell top buggy and eleven
head Of cattle. He continues, How
ever, / was not satisfied. l had been
reading of the splendid homesteads
that were to be had in Montana,
Wheat was cheap and l thought ii
would get cheaper, SO | began to think
that homesteading as a moneymaking
proposition was better than farming
did not stop to consider that wheat
was not the only thing; as a matter
of fact l had sold pork for IA cents a
pound. Eggs and butter had kept US
in groceries and more, WI had now
four mich COWS, two heifers coming in
and more growing up. We had a cream
separator, and some hogs. We had
quarter section of land that coult
raise an abundance of small grain
roots and grass for feed, but l coult
not see all that; I had the moving
fever, and decided to sell.
/ set the price on the land at $500,
cash. l could not find anyone will
that much money, however, SO l CAM
down until l finally sold for $1,400.
We had an auction and sold the per
sonal property. On the sale we go
just about enough cash to pay the auc
tioneer; the rest was all notes.
The horses brought about two-third
what they we're worth. The imple
ments sold for hardly one-third O
what they had cost. The cattl
brought a good price.
Must Make Another Start.
We now have a homestead in MOI
tana, but we find that after movin
here and getting settled, what none
we had did not go far. We have thre
horses, about all the implements W
need, and a little better building
than we had on our former place. W
have no cattle, though we had to bull
much fence to keep ranch stock OF
of our fields. We have about $50
worth of honest debts.
True, we have a half section !
place of a quarter, but that is no goo
to us, as long as we have not tn
capital with which to work it.
In summarizing it all up l see whel
I made my mistake. 1t will take full
five years to get into as good circur
stances as we were before we mat
the change. 1t is five years lost.
My advice to anyone contempla
ing a change of location is to thir
twice before you act, and if your pre-
ent circumstances are not too ba
stay by your bush till you pick
lean. '"-Advertisement.
