WOMEN BETTERING
LABOR CONDITIONS

Driven by the necessities of the
great war hundreds of industries have
opened their doors to women for the
nrst dme-women are everywhere
doing work hitherto done exclusively
by men. With this change in the
economic scheme has come a change
In the social life of labor; a change
that in many cases was unforeseen
but which has proved in every case
TO De betterment of existing condi-
tons Just as the women have shown
increased efficiency in the work so
has the social atmosphere of the
great factories been improved.
Men, working side by side with
women, have been ashamed of rude
behavior and finding keen competi-
ton from the women, have attended
more strictly to business. AS one
works manager said recently, 1.-The
boys have cut out the rough stuff and
are digging hard-the girls have got
EN- scared the way they mind their
knitting!"
employers, however, find that with
the employment of women comes
greater obligations to their working
forces and most of them have risen
to the occasion. The shops are being
made light and airy; rest rooms,
baths and dressing rooms are being
installed and the living conditions
are generally being improved. No
sooner are the women provided for
than the employer realizes that SINH
lar accommodations should be given
the men and the result is that all
gain.

URGES USE OF
FISH MORE Than
ONCE A WEEK
Have Food Value Fully
Equal To That of
Meat.

Fish are often looked upon as not
being meat, but there is no charac-
teristic difference between fish flesh
and the flesh of any animal" said H.
F. Taylor, a scientist of the United
States Bureau Of Fisheries in a re-
cent interview.
The bulk of it is protein and wa
ter. Pound for pound, there is near
ly, If not quite, as much protein in
fish meat as in beefsteak. Fish
could be substituted for all other
kinds of meat every day in the year
without i'll effects. Oily fish, like
shad, herring and cells, are especially
nutritious. affording a large quantity
Of fat for fuel as we'll as the tissue
building proteins. Fish roe generally
contains more protein than beef and
some fat in addition. Fish meat is
quite as easily digested q. e., as a
large proportion in as short time)
as other forms Of meat It has been
recommended as being highly suit
able form of protein for sedentary
workers.
1.-THE one-day-a-week nature of the
fish business is one of the most SER
ious deterrents of an increased con-
sumption of fish. The fisherman's
business is largely governed by wind
and, ttde--conditions beyond his con-
troll. He must catch fish whenever
he can, but hold them against the
risk Of spelling and by expensive ic-
ing until the one-fish day Of the
week. The consumer must buy when
everybody else Is buying and the
dealer must obtain from one days
sales a profit to cover six days ex-
penses. Cheaper and better fish will
be obtainable If the dealer and con-
sumner will cooperate to make every
day a fish day.
Combating Prejudice
I'm introducing to the public new
fishes, not the least obstacle is the
prejudice of people against a sugges-
tive name, or an unattractively ap-
peartng fish. AS a matter Of fact, al.
most every fish taken from pure wa
ter Is fit to eat, in the sense that Il
furnishes food and is not injurious te
health. Some have a coarse or tough
texture, or are without distinctive
taste, but such defects can usually be
| remedied by proper cooking. Sharks
| for instance furnish an abundance o,
| meat, wholesome and Of good flavor
The food of the shark is less question
able than that Of pigs and chickens
There is nothing against It except tn,

shark recently received and examined
by this bureau was of both attracttv,
appearance and agreeable taste. !
fish like the common toadfish or tn.
goosefish, of unattractive appearance
is Disseminated against, while tn,
appearance of the founder is con
sidered no obstacle to the extensfv,
utilization Of it's excellent flesh. TIL,
difference is. of course. in custom
This psychological factor must b.
recognized and overcome by empha
sizing the unwisdom and waste an,
tll-found dislike. People must b.
persuaded to eat a fish If it is whole

Should love on through all tlls-love
on till they die
Has it ever occurred to you that
women, who denounce with horror the
shortcomings of their friends hus-
bands, adroitly cover UP the little
slips from grace and the follies OF
their oYn spouse? 1T is the woman
who brags that she has one of the
most perfect men, who generally has
the flirting husband upon whom she
is eternaIly spying. She is the wo-
man who doesn't loll in bed, over toast
and chocolate, but is UP betimes in
the morning to see that hubby has
no opportunity to make gallant
speeches to the trim little maid, who
serves his coffee and rolls, at the ta-
bile. She is the woman who drops in
at hubby's office, at inopportune times,
and raises a rumpus if she sees their
heads bent together over puzzhng
letter he has to answer She believes:
'Once flirt, always a 1irt.'' Her
reasoning is that it would be madness
to let other women know how suscep-
tible he is to feminine charms, and
that their home life is so stormy.
It's always this kind Of woman who
tells a. wife if she is foolish enough
to confide in her: ct wouldn't. stand
it, my dear! Set your foot down and
insist on your rights; if you would
conquer She doesn't mean to give
the wrong kind of advice. Her words
follow the groove of her own thoughts.
Woe generally follows one who takes
another woman's advice of this kind.
Who is she to look to, if there's a
split-up in the family as the result?
There are men who should not have
been husbands; men who should not
tie themselves down to any one wo-
man. They have been used to trans
ferring love from one fair maid to
another when single. 1t is next to i'm
possible for a man to change at will
the habits he has had in youth and
carried into middle life. They would
be shocked at the bare idea Of their
wives flirting with other men.
