My steps to distant scenes were bent;
And months had passed ere l returned
To where the early spring was spent.

And an oppressive. heated air,

nonexistent.
The experience OF q subordinate
woman's division within the Bureau
OF Labor Statistics has shown that
the organization had three importnt
weaknesses:
First: TIE bureau published It's
bulletins In forms Ineligible to ex-
perts only. while the womsn's d.
vision should tell the very human
story OF women wage-earners in a
way that every normally intelligent
pei son can easily understand.
Second: A just apportionment OF
the funds for the development OF
the work OF the woman's division
could not be obtained. because the
bureau had a traditional field OF
, investigation that took most OF its
APPROPRIATION. Inasmuch as these in
vestigations although frequently
made into industries employing large
numbers OF women. uniformly failed
to reveal the factors especially af-
fecting their welfare. the large ex-
penditure Of funds involved in such
studies yield little or no value to
wage-earning women.
Third: and most important. the
won ans division under the Bureau
OF Labor Statistics had no statutory
existence mot having been created
by Congress), and therefore lived or
died at the pleasure OF each Com
missioner OF Labor.
Object of Jones Bill.
The Jones bill for the creation Of
an independent woman's division
does not contemplate the creation
OF a new Federal agency. but simply
insures the continuous development
of an organization the need for which
has been proved. which was started
Ave years ago. but which has been
engaged during the entire period in
an unequal struggle for existence.

THE SKELETON IN THE

Bv Edward Everett Male.

THE Secret Service sub-chief came
to New York from Richmond
under a flag OF truce. in october
of 1854. The civil war had en-
tered on its final. fiercest era. The Fed
eral blockade had shut all imported
iuxuries out of the Southern States;
and there was no money or material for
manufacturing sucMthings in the South
itself. So southerrt women were wear
ing ancient clotheR and plating their
own straw hats and making coffee out
OF beans. It was the lack OF new clothes
they minded most.
So. when the sub-chief went back to
Richmond. he took along as a present a
dozen OF the latest and most fashionable
hoopskirts C'skeletons." as they were
called to his wife and mother end

were received with cries of delight.
