spirit with which she undertook her
work was all wrong. An atom OF
conscience would have saved her.
On the other hand, the over-con-
scientious, ov~er-zealous woman
worker often makes q nuisance OF
herself in business. She starts right
out to reform the business. she con-
'hdes the obvious to the manager, she
outlines plans which are as old as
commerce, though just discovered by
herself.
Or she works like a horse on her
mans Job. and lets the whole office
know II.
When a woman is constantly COM
planning about how hard her Job Is,
she confesses her own limitations.
She spoils her own game. Worse yet,
she disgusts employers with the work
of women in general. Why. the girl
with the complexion who retires to
the dressing-room every thirty min
utes to renew 1t, is liked better in
most Offices!
1t is not dihicult for a woman to
get into war work. Some women or
fashion and wealth have places on
half O dozen war boards-and are
equally useless on all OF them.
Whether the var worker IL a vol
unteer or drafted, she achieves sue
cess only through a spirit Of honest
helpfulness. To take o. mans job
and create difficulties for oneself,
once employer and customers Is
mighty little service to anybody, let
alone to the nation.

What kind of a service flag can
I put out for my daughter? She Is in
the Red Cross overseas"
This question has been asked so
often of me hat l have almost come
to think that there are as many girls
doing their bit over there as there
are boys.
If you have a girl overseas in any
war service you have the right to
wear a pin or ring with q blue band
around the white center on which Is
ice flag can be displayed in the win
dow. Corporations and other places
of business may display the red star
for women who have left their en-
ploy for overseas war service.
If you have a daughter nursing In
cantonments this flag can also be dis
played.
A daughter and a son can have
ing the Hydraulic Co. all of a new al
lotment of water to be taken from the
river, and which will develop 10000
horsepower additional
The commission has also compelled
the Canadian power companies TO
continue the delivery of certain power
on the American side, which they
had threatened to cut off. This was
done through the coa administration
bringing pressure to bear on the On
tarfo government.
Temporary extensions are also being
made at the Ontario Power Co.'s plant
on the Canadian side to provide need
ed power for Canadian industries. In
addition engagements to be completed
this fall to two steam plants at Buff
fa1o will add $4,000 horsepower to
the available total for war industries.
