If Kansans Want Women to Work
Long Hours They Must Prove 1t.

Kansas farmers who want women to
work in laundries and stores sixty-two
hours a week must show that such
work will help win the war. The
state welfare commission does not
propose to increase hours for these
women unless it will aid the govern

urged that the hours of women in
certain industries be increased from
50 to 81 hours a week. The farmers
who met to discuss wages and hours
for men and women demanded that
the state commission extend town
labor hours for women. The extern

PLAIN SHOW, BUT GOOE

These who attended the show last
night enjoyed the evening in spite
of the fact that it was just a plain
show with none of the attendent pref
ty music and pretty chorus girls.
At the outset it appeared as ii a
dialogue,-just dry conversation was
going to kill the evening, but soon
things began to happen and the plot
was ingenusously worked cut in such
a manner as to keep the attendant
moving fast.
The show was a good one, clean, live
ly and presented by company well
up with shows coming to Cordele On
ylthe chorus girls and the music were
not there The attendance was not
so large but the actors quickly won
the crowd and kept them to the end.
