no hope and no Joy in the Valley
Of the shadow-only love and pity.
and tenderness, and Wakeful nights
and anxious days, and the need OF
money, and stiu more money.
It's rather a heart-breaking
problem after all; for business Is
business and Miss Pinney is not
asking charity, and the oRice world
today is one OF perpetual youth.
Young man, what are you going
to do with Us?
We are not with you from
choice, but from necessity. The
law forbids murder and suicide!
We have done our small part in
bringing the business to a point
where it justifies your princely
salary.
We have put aside ambition
we accept philOsophically the fact
that promotions are not for such
as we.
Turn our faces to the wall, but
give Us a fair, spOrtsmanlike
chance.
As for the Peaeh-take her to
your arms-love her-marry her
lavish your salary on her-and
God bless you, my children!
But when you are merely en-
ploying help in the office, con-
slider, we beseech you, the guam
tity and quality Of the applicants
pot-hooks and her speed per min
ute, and her education and her
earnesness Of purpose along with
other things, remembering that
you do not judge male applicants
you, yourself, were not judged
only by shape" and complexion
and eyes and smirk, nor were you
required to be clad in such garb
as to best display these qualifica-
tions. That would be really un-
fair, you know.
And wouldn't it be we'll to post,
where the applicant can readily
see, over the desk of the most
fragrant specimen of the dried
variety, an adaptation of the
cheerful verse one sees in ancient
churchyards:
Remember all We who pass by,
AS you are now, so once was /:
As I am now, so you will be,
Prepare, o Peach, to follow me-"
You demand the impossible
when you ask US 10 turn back the
clock, yet we really love you and
admire you, and your intense way
of doing things and your enthusi-
asm and your grit and your
optimism. We saved and toiled
and prayed for you during the
war, and we rejoiced TO have you
back, though the return of the
soldier jeopardizes still further
our precarious business lives. We
have stood in the crowded cars
knitting khaki and blue, while the
Peaches, knitting pretty pink and
white and lavender things, smil-
ingly accepted the vacated seats
and saved their legs to dance with
you at the community houses; in
other WORds-the Dried Peach
she hath done what she could. Be
just-Yea, even be meFciful!
For Mothers sake. Amen.

It wasn't blueberry. Il was apple.
At this season Of the year in prae-
tieally every newspaper office where
the city editor wants to do some
thing different, some bright young
man is assigned to write a powerful
piece on the subject Of the equinox.
First, the B. Y. II. sits down and
explains that the equinox is the sea-
son when the days and nights are
of equal length, and digs out lot Of
canned information from an enCyclO-
pedia or somebody's almanac, and
then calls up the weather bureau and
asks the weather man for his views
on the old question of whether or
not the equinox really causes The
well-known equinoetial storm
The weather man says that that
old stuff about the equinOctial
storms is all superstition, and that
if it should rain just at this season
of the year it is a mere coincidence
and NOT because the earth is in any
particular position with relation to
the sun.
Whereupon the bright young man
writes a fanciful piece on the sub
iect, and the weather man adds an
other clipping to the two million and
odd clippings he already has on the
same subject.
/ therefore move that the subject
Of equinoctial storms Re removed en-
tirely from the assignment books Of
our rising young city editors. Let
US content ourselves with the fact
that we have an equinox on Sep
ember q or thereabouts; that it
ALWAYS rains and that the weather
man maintains a strictly scientific
attitude and declares that it MAY
rain but that the mere fact that it is
the equinoctial season has MOTH
ING to do with it.
