less at home and work out TO avoid
homework" said mother mildly,
looking at father to confirm her
opinion, but he only smiled.
This report disproyes that oft
quoted statement and shows from
recent Investigations OF family life
that mothers go into the industries
only when their earnings are need
ed in the family support And,

many and many a girl, and here's
the figures for II, who turns in all
she earns to the family income, and
what some OF them keep for them
selves Is too small TO account for
their going 10 work. Poor things,
don't you see they are deserving OF
more pay"
Mother nodded agreement, father
smiled, and Mabel perused her re-
port for more facts about underpaid
women. Soon mother commented,
Many OF those factory girls live at
home and the family life makes
small wages possible"
There must be many girls and
women without homes, alone and
self-dependent," argued Mabel.
What are they 10 do when denied
enough wage 10 maintain a decent
standard Of living? Think or a girl
in this city paying for room. board,
and clothes on SO or 81 week. It's
shameful"
Women often get lower pay than
men because they are physically
weaker" said Mrs. Gibbs.
Physical weakness doesn't neces-
sarily interfere with women's skill"
argued the girl. Here is the state.
ment that when women do piece
work they earn sometimes more
than men, showing they can be
| skilled. Yet here also is the state.
mont that women everywhere pre-
dominate in unskilled lines In the
various industries and accept wages
that would not attract men. That's
unfair! IL indicates that women
aren't given chance, Women
have a right TO live even though
they are unskilled." Then, indig
nantly, Father why do you sit
there and smiie?"
Then father spoke up. You've
both guessed wrong" he said. The
law OF wages declares that the lab.
orer gets the wage he will consent
10 live on. Chinese are paid less
than Americans because they con.
sent 10 live on less. Women are
paid less than men because they
consent TO live on less. Though
women may do the same work as
men, the majority of them accept
low wage. Thus the few have TO
suffer.
The woman worker. remember,
gets the wage that women as a
class. by their consent to live on
less, have established for her"

Three Vacation Don'ts.
BY JESSIE ROBERTA.

Vacations are still to come for
many OF you. and I'd like to point
out three don'ts It will be well for
you TO heed IL you are to ret the
best results from your playtims.
F1rst-Don't spend too much.
II you are going to be worried
over money matters, because you
are staying at too expensive . ho-
tel, or because you have run into
debt for fine clothes. or because
you are taking too long q trip, you
are not going TO get rest. Make
up your mind exactly what you can
afford for your two or three wesks
OF freedom, and stick to that eOti-
mate. There are all sorts of vaca-
tons available, and let 1t be whis-
pered that for sheer good times and
good health, the expensive and
dressy ones are low In the scale.
Second-Don't overdo In athletics.
Many a girl starts in her vacation
with such terrific energy that she
lays herself up in the very begin
ming. You can't go from once work
to playing tennis or golf all day, TO
long country tramps, to rowing, or
canoeing, or swimming without ret
ting played out. Begin slowly, do
some lounging. be satisfied with q
single set OF three miles OF walking,
let some one else do the rowing
for you, until you begin to feel that
you are storing up strength. But
stay out in the open every moment
possible.
Third-Don't sight-see too much.
There isn't anything more ex.
hausting than sightseeing, and my
advice Is to make a little 20 q long
way OF course, II you are on .
trip you want to see the lovely and
interesting things that await you.
But after all, enjoyment is the main
consideration. or should be. You
won't enjoy seeing anything II you
are dead tired. and your vacation
will be one in name only. Take
things easy.
