The system OF NEST
meut in America is condemned IN
terms. "Unregulated condi-
tons of domestic employment, un-
certain hours, absence of definite So
cial status and lack of creative OPP
portunities render the home in many
cases for the woman servants a breed
ing place of immortality" says the
commissions report.
Investigations conducted by the
committee, the report says. disclosed
the fact that more women of the I'M
derworld fall into dishonor from do
nestle employment than from any
other work. OF 1S1 girls sent to the
state training school at Geneva, ILL.,,
who had worked for a wage previous
to commitment the committee found
that lis, or 63.55 per cent. had been
engaged in domestic service.
Eight dollars a week is fixed by
the committee as the least amount
that will meet the necessary items
of a bare living for a girl employed
in a large city. The report says wages
were found ito be discouragingly
short of this figure" Attention is
called to testimony taken by the
committee "of wages running as low
as 81 a week; of foremen who abuse
girls in short dresses, shake them
until their arms are blackened and
occasionally hurl boxes at them, and
of the manager who found his fac
tory besieged with the agents of pro-
fessional white slavery"
A condition which the report de-
clares strikes directly at the home is
found in what is termed the "eall
girl system. On this subject the re-
port says in part;
"A detective told of a call list
which he had sliced in the raid. More
than twenty names were on the list;
first names only being given, oppo-
the telephone numbers. He check
ed up the names and numbers. Some
of the women were respectable mar
ried women Two we're young daugh-
tiers. Others we're working girls. The
case of a young mother serving as
call girl and using the money she
made in buying necessities for her
baby is merely illustrative of the
of some of the women in
system.
High-class cafes are hard hit in
the report.
AS a result of its investigation the
makes the following rec
concentrations:
l.. Enacmetnt of a minimum wage
2. Repeal of social laws fallen in
disuse and strict enforcement of
all others.
3. Encouragement of uniform
social legislation.
4. Improvement of conditions for
girls in domestic service.
5. Establishment of homes for
moral and industrial schooling of re-
formed women.
6. Extension of vocational educa-
ton.
I Abolition of the filming sys-
tenn" in the treatment of immoral
women.
8. Registration of minor boys
and girls in employment.
g.. Prohibition of printing in
newspapers of details of court cases
involving moral lapses.
10. Creation of a state athletic
association for the encouragement
of healthful pastimes.

HOW TO BE RID OF
DISGUSTING DANDRUFF

The only way to be permantly rid of dis
gushing, untidy dandruff is to correct its
cause. Washing merely cleanses the scalp
for few days and soon the scales form
again as thick as ever.
To destroy the dsndruf germ and get rid
of dandruff for good, part the hair and apply
little of the genuine Partisan Sage direct
~ on the bare scalp, and rub in with the
finger tips for few minutes, until the scalp
ahsorhs it Go over the entire head in this
manner.
A few days massage with Partisan Sage
will destroy the germs that cause the dam
druf to form. The scalp becomes healthy,
the hair will grow better and show more life
and vitality and you need never be troubled
by dandruff again. Faded, dull or lifeiess hair
is quickly restored to beauty by this simple
process, which is absolutely harmless TO hair
and scalp, it contains poisonous wood
alcohol and will not stain the hair make it
greasy.
Partisan Sage can be obtained from the
RID Cross Pharmany and druggists every
where. 1t is not expensive.-Adv.

SENATOR PAGES RECORD

Pages record on progressive" legislation.
After admitting that the return of the Repub-

elevation of Mr.. Page to some better committees
Mr.. Thompson says
would il not be well for Senator Page to state to his
constituency why he voted against the Hollis rural cred
its bill? have seen Senator Pages statement
in this matter in which he successfully lodges the inter-
rogaton by calling attention of the interrogation to the
fact that the rural credit bonds of this banking scheme
would be non-taxable in the state of Vermont.
He also refers to the speech of Senator Cummns, in
which . chez falls back the DID, hackneyed
phrase that the bill unconstitutional, We in Yer
mont not particularly interested in Senator Cummns
idea We wish to know why Senator Page voted
against it,.
In the same connection the Bennington Banner
says:
The rural credits bill is designed to make ii easier for
producing farmers to borrow money Farmers
have always had harder time in borrowing money than
other business for the that the value of their
property varies much according to location
The Banner greatly surprised to note by the Wash

rural credits BILL
