organized, and Is operating, an employ
ment bureau patronlzed by every woman
In the town and many outside Of It.
Ridley Park passed through all the
acute and chronic stages of the servant
problem until the woman's Club got on
the job. Imported help refused to re-
main I'm the town: receptions and club
meetings were broken up because saucy
servants struck without notice; irats
husbands complained OF poorly cooked
food, and wives were worn to "nerves''
and tears.
But the women were not to be beaten.
Through their club they Concentrated"
on the problem. They pooled their do
mestic experiences; threshed the matter
to the finish, and decided that the only
way to secure competent help was to
run their own employment bureau. Co
operation was the keynote Of the plan,
and every woman pledged herself to
work with her neighbor and to refrain
from stealing" or even coveting other
women's servants.
