Two Society Girls

Once again scarcity of male labor
has forced girls and women away from
the useual feminine pursuits to the
sterner tasks of the men. Those
who know Miss Olive Skinner in the
city would scarcely recognize the tan
ned young lady in over-alls who is
driving a mower on the kooteni Cat
tie company ranch near Cascade as
the same girl they have seen dancing
SO gracefully at the parties not
great while ago. Miss Skinner and
Mrs. Ellis Johnson have both donned
over-alis and are driving the mowers
and earning their four dollars day.
Miss Skinner is delighted with her
new work and declares it is more fun
than anything she has ever done.
