LYNDEN HAS TO DO EACH DAY

The farm wife of Washington does
"a percent of the out door work on
the farm, IS percent of the house
work. 26 percent of the record-keep-
ing, and in return, receives 10 per-
cent of the money made on the farm,

survey was made were in typical ag-
ricultural sections, including Spo-
kane. Clark. Thurston and King.

?. IA hours of rest.
In the matter of vacation, she is a
regular fan. In Washington 2S.4
percent of the farm wives get 11.4
days of vacation in the year. Com
pared with other farm women of the
United States, the Washington wo-
men have longer hours of work. The
national average is 1912 hours of
work and Is hours of rest, per day,
in summer; in winter, the national
average is l02 hours and .. hours
of rest a day.
And what are their wages? After
her fourteen hours of labor, the
Washington farm wife receives 10
percent of the money made on the
farm. Less than II percent of them
have their butter money" Less than
19 percent get their poultry money

FUNERAL OF ....

Fifth Avenue at Last "Fade Out"
of Motion Picture
Pc Actress.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. 7
NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-Gray shad-
ows filtering down from the high win
dows softened the hues of the great
banks of flowers and dimmed the lus-
ire of the gowns of richly dressed
women.
A silence pervaded the great church,
broken only by the solemn voice Of
priest informing the Episcopal fun
eral ritual From the street came
the muffled hum of traffic.
The entire setting gave the Illusion
of silent drama.
This was the last fade OUT of
Olive Thomas.
The funeral of the noted motion
picture actress who died in Paris as
the result of accidentally taking pois-
on, drew thousands of persons from
all walks of life to Saint Thomas
church on Fifth avenue. There were
millonaires and paupers, stars and
members of the chorus, friends and
the merely curious.
Hundreds of men and women, most
ly the latter, stormed the church
doors when officials turned them
away after the edifice was filled. The
police lines were broken time and
again Order was not finally restor-
ed until long after the services were
over and the body had been removed
from the church.
! The ceremony was simple. DR..
Ernst M. Stiers, the rector, conducted
the services Jack Pickford, husband
of Miss Thomas, sat with her mother,
Mrs. H. B. Van Kirk and Miss Thorn
as' brother James Duffy
! Among the honorary pall-bearers
we're Owen Moore, former husband of
Mary Pickford, and Harrison Fisher,
artist. one of the first to discover Miss
Thomas beauty.
! The coffin rested in the center of the
chancel, under blanket Of pink or
chids. Surrounding it were great
banks of pink and white flowers.
There was one floral piece from the
Zeigfeld Follies, in which Miss Thorn
as began her stage life and one from
Miss Pickford, bearing card inscrib-
ed from Sister Mary"
! AS the floral pieces were carried
through the street to the waiting We
hicles after the services many were
torn to pieces by women and girls
who sought souvenirs. The police
tried to protect them but we're power
| less.

the throngs to the hearse, several

steps clicked in unison. Miss Thomas

DATES
WORLD SERIES
First Games to Be Played in Brook
Ign on October S, 6 and 7, Then
to Either Cleveland or
Chicago.

| UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. !
CHICAGO, Sept. 2S.-The national
baseball commission, meeting here
today, changed the dates of the world
series which were announced yester-
day.
Under the new arrangement, the
first game will be played in Brook
Ign on October 5. Games will also
be played in Brooklyn on October 6
and Z, when the teams will go to the
American league city which wins the
pennant-either Cleveland or Chi.
cago.
-Four games will be played in the
American league city unless one
team has won the series. The eighth
game will be played in Brooklyn on
October IA, and the final game, if
necessary, will also be played in the
National league city.
The ninth game will be played or
October 16.
The change in dates was made on
the request of Jimmy Dunn, owner
of the Cleveland Indians, probable
winners of the American league pen
nant. Dunn appeared before the COM
mission and declared that arrange
ments for the opening game, if held
in Cleveland, could not be completed
by October 5.
He said that new stands were be-
ing erected and other arrangements
made to handle the crowds.
AS Brooklyn had clinched the Ma
tional league flag and the American
league race was still in doubt, the
commission decided that it would be
best to change the dates, giving the
first three games to Brooklyn.
The national commission asked
the Brooklyn management to waive
the rule which would prohibit Short
stop Sewell, of Cleveland, from par
ticipating in the series. Sewell re-
placed Ray Chapman, who was killed
by pitched ball at the Polo grounds.
1t is understood that Brooklyn will
agree to the request and that Sewell
will play.
