True Stories of Successful Women
BY Edith MoriArty

Little do the men throughout the
country. who receive checks or orders
from the Bryan Machine Company
signed in large. firm hand C. Mar
shall. think that c. Marshall is a d.
minutive black-haired miss of but
twenty.three summers. And even
those men who know her full name.
address their communications to Mr..
Cecil Marshall
The firm should really be called
the Marshall Machine Company, for
1T was this very young woman who
sJut the company on it's feet and made
It the profitable and nationally known
concern that Is now is.
Cecil was the second child in
large family Of eight. Her parents
spoke no English and had very little
money and though they tried to send
Cecil through high school they found
months when two Of her sisters be-
came Ill and she had to stay home to
care for them.
but started to business school the
next year and after completing the re-
quired course she was sent to MI
Bryan. who wanted a stenographer
Cecil was a poor speller, not alto
gether neat either in her work or in
her dress and very inexperienced.
With these drawbacks she started in
on ner business career at the age Of
sixteen with salary Of six dollars
a week.
, Cecil was quick to realize her short.
oon!ngs and she had scarcely worked
a month before she started to i'm
prove in every way. She studied
spelling and she went to work early
and stayed late in order to practice
up on her typipg. Her own appear
ance improved wonderfully and she
claims that was the hardest part Of
ner work.
To dress neatly and becomingly
upon her small salary was the big
gest problem she met, but she mas
tered that as she did others and today
she modestly admits that she dresses
better and on less money than do
many women, and all who meet her
would surely agree with her, especi-
ally upon the first part
When Cecil started working for
the Bryan Company 1t was a young
and struggling concern. Mr.. Bryan
was just starting out for himself in
the business which he had learned
from working in a large and we'll es-
tablished Arm dealing with the same
king of thing 1t was far from what
one considers a woman's business,
being all about gears and stopcocks
and gauges and the like.
When Cecil had been there year,
Mr.. Bryan decided that If he wanted
any business he would have to go out
and get 1t himself, so after a con-
ference with her left for a short trip.
Then and there C. Marshall entered
the business world in earnest. She
became office manager on Mr.. Bryan
absence and since he only came into
the office on Saturday noon when
everybody else had left and remained
in the city until Sunday night, when
he left on another trip, C. Marshall
was office manager for two whole
years except on Saturday afternoons
and Sundays.
During that time she took the place
four people. She was office man
ger, stenographer, purchasing agent,
complaint department and city sales
man in one. The business grew to
such proportions that it became ply.

A LITTLE LIGHT

Weeks passed, with situation begin
ming to grow desperate. With SO much
walking, Demands shoes wore out.
Annie noticed them one night after
he had gone exhaustedly to sleep. and
cried over them. The soles OF both
were worn clean through, making a
pathetic contrast to the carefully pol
ished uppers. She looked at his other
clothes.
There were the heart-stabbing signs
Of poverty-the frayed cuffs and trous-
ers, the shirt faded from innumerable
washings, the broken collar, the shine
Of the coat at elbow and shoulder.
The next day Annie went out and
pawned the locket and chain Bernie
had bought her from his first pool
winnings. She rolled up ten dollars of
the twelve she had got on it and
stuck it under his dinner plate with
a note that said: Shoe and shirt
money, Yes, darlint, I'm still a honest
woman! | saved it outen my past
allowance" She thought the Tiny
Jest would help keep things CHEEKY.

face from view.

The Delaware Indians made
salt from brine springs in New
York state and sold it to settlers
as early 1910, making probably
the first commercial production
of salt in h e country. The
manufacture of salt by white peo-
pie in the United States was be-
gun near Syracuse, New York,
about 1888. Salt is the most
commonly used mineral in the
world, and no useful mineral ex-
cept coal, perhaps, occurs in
greater abundance or4is more
widely distributed in the United
States.

why should he expect 1t, demand It.,

Fourteen points be as inviolable and
as inerrant as Holy Writ? Is it not

Mr.. Editor, my Democracy runs
back at least three generations and |
have never voted any but the Demo-
cratic ticket. and have thought that
Woodrow Wilson was the greatest
statesman in the world, but | must
canfess that as an American citizen,
the spectacle we are witnessing in
Europe brings the blush of shame to
my cheek. Surely taste of power
has turned our Presidents head. Has
he no modesty, no sense of proper
ton? Must he be the whole show?
For myself, | wish he would come
home, as he is threatening to do, and
let Lloyd George and Clemenceau end
this war and give Germany a square
deal. And | wish he would bring
our boys home. A month ago he
said ne was going to bring them back
at the rate of three hundred thousand
a month, but he isn't doing it, and
admiral somebody else says in to-
days paper that it will be Septem-
Der of next year before they have all
come home.
Well, here's hoping we shall get
out of the weller and muck some,
sweet day; that France, despoiled, de-
fled, defloured. but glorious still, will
rise from her ashes more virile, more
more polite, more heroic,
more glorious than ever; that Bril-
ania will still rule the wave; that |
,ur beloved country, first in war. first |

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
Mr.. Editor:

Mr.. Editor:
You think the prolongation of the
Peace conference proceedings arises
from the insistence for a square deal
by the President. A square deal for
whom? France? or Germany? 1
wonder if President Wilson is the
only one who wants a square deal.
Does anyone imagine that the grand
old "Tigre" wants anything but
square deal? Is Mr.. Wilson trying
to give everybody square deal, or is
he, perhaps, trying to give Germany
an easy peace" lie has long since
declared for a peace without vic
Tory" He is afraid of another AL
sace-Lorraine blunder with its after
math of heart-burning and resent
ment. But we know the Germans
now, and we know that however easy
the peace they will just bide their
time till they think they can accom-
plish what they. have just tried and
then civilized men will have TO fight
again for life and liberty. The Loop
ord may change his spots, the man
eating tiger may become a harmless
necessary cat From julius Caesars
time til now deceit and falsehood
and plotting and thieyng and high
handed robbery and ruthlessness have
been the stock in trade Of Germany's
rulers. For two thousand years they
have schemed and lied and fought
for a place in the sun"-or some
body else's land. After their schol-
ars have cast aside the Bible as no
more than scrap of paper, il is no
wonder that solemn treaties have to
share the same fate.
All honor to Clemenceau. He
knows what his country has suffered
and he dOsn't want to see il happen
again. lie wants a square deal for
France. He wants to see the amelio-
ration of present conditions before We
go joyridng in Utopia. He would
like to see some castles built in
France before too many are built in
Spain.
Why should the entire membership
of tie Peace conference give way 10
