 THE LOCAL SOCIAL WORLD
Woman in Business
MRS. FRANK NOBLE

Woman in Business
 How often we hear the theme-"We are just as our fathers were" In many respects this may be true; but in this New World "a progressive world-we carve out progressive ways which we deem make for our greater happiness.
 Just now we are seeing many big changes in our social relations due to the conditions growing out of the war. Perhaps none is more noticeable than the relation of woman in business. Time has proven wonderfully kind to woman. Not because of the ballot that was just deferred justice-but we are speaking of the place that woman has taken in the marts of business. Millions of women are today filling places in banks, offices, stores, shops and in all the trades. Everywhere you go they are in evidence and on the payrolls, to their honor and to their financial advantage. .
 Compare these conditions with those of ten years ago. What advantage does this invasion of mans domain lead to? First, they feel themselves spokes in the great wheel of human progress. They are part and parcel of the worlds movements. They say: "Here am I; send me-" Are their employers pleased? Ask them and they will tell you that the women "fill the bill" with great satisfaction.
 Is this progress? Every age has it's problem, which when solved helps humanity forward. Yes; this is prog ress, for it is woman's right to do what she wants to do.
 Mrs. LindblOm Entertains s.
 Unfortunately, we do not keep rec ords of our stereotyped phrases, We might not err so often if we did. But we're going to say again that it was ga lovely party" This particular one was held at the Lindblom home on last Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Lindblom gave this as a little farewell for Mrs. E. M. Brown. The rooms were most attractively decorated-great festoons of greenery hanging from prettily shaded lights and holding scattering sprays of fragrant colorful flowers. After the guests had assembled, a novel feature was introduced which called forth much merriment. A large basket was passed around, from which each guest drew daintily wrapped parcel. These were opened and were found to be some useful article dear to feminine hearts - from powder puffs to fy-swatters, they ranged and each felt the gift particularly ap- propriate to an individual need.
 During the games of auction, deli cious punch and salted nuts were served, and later, pie la mode with coffee found favor with all. The Misses Fowler chalmingly sang, and Mrs. O'Connor played an instrumental selection which was greatly appreciat- ed. Mrs. Lindblom's guests included: Mrs. E. M. Brown, Mrs. G. F. Man ming, Sr., Mrs. John Francis, Mrs. Wid Raudebaugh, Mrs. L. w. Cress, Mrs. G. F. Manning, Jr., Mrs. J. P. Will son, Mrs. c. W. Grimwald, Mrs. Bert Cameron, Mrs. Hays Nance, Mrs. c. B.
