A New Captain of Industry

The new general manager Of the

Sarah Sheridan who entered the
employ of the big corporation a
number Of years ago as telephone
operator. By sheer efficiency, and
loyalty to the company's interests,
she has worked her way upward
step by step until now she has
reached the top.
The company is capitalized at
S75,000,000. Miss Sheridan will
personally control the expenditure
of approximately two million dol
lars per year. More than five
hundred highly paid men, most of
whom are technical experts, will
work under her direction.

Immodest Dress under. Ban

Overseer Voliva, of Zion City,
Illinois, the religious community
founded by Alexander Dowie, is
having considerable trouble with
the women of the town in the
matter of dress.
He decided some time ago that
they were immodest in their at
tire and commanded that no wo-
man should henceforth wear a
waist of transparent material
showing the skin above the middle
OF the forearm or one exposing the
neck below its junction with the
collar bone. The penalty named
was incarceration in jail without
the privilege of bail. Further, it
was asserted that in case fine
were assessed, there would be no
escape save to work it out on the
streets.
The drastic ordinance does not
seem to have accomplished it's pur.
pose fully. Two women at least
have so far been arrested and COM
mitted to jail.

fasten the end back on. Soak for
twenty-four hours in a brine
strong enough to bear up an egg.
Stuff with the following: Mix
four tablespoonful green peppers
chopped, two tablespoonful mus
tard seed, one teaspoonful salt, one
tablespoonful minced horseradish,
one tablespoonful celery seed, a
few cooked green beans and tiny
cucumbers. Heat six cups vine
gar and three cups sugar to the
boiling point and pour over the
stuffed melon. Reheat this and
pour over the melon three con-
secutive mornings.

Babies Get New Attention

Babies Get New Attention
Postmaster General Hays seems
to be making real effort to in
crease the usefulness of the postal
department to the American peo-
pie. The signs of a genuine dis
position to serve on the part Of the
employees are being noticed and
commented upon in all parts of
the country.
One of the most interesting in
novations is the new order to
drivers of parcel post wagons in
towns and cities directing them to
weigh babies at the request of
mothers along their routes. The
order permits this to be done for
any babe every day if the mother
desires; and drivers are admon-
ished to be courteous at all times
in the performance of this new
duty.

Tables Are Neatly Turned

Representative Alice Robertson,
of Oklahoma, who is the only wo-
man member of the United States
Congress, has thrown her male
colleagues into CONSERVATION by
proposing a new rule for that body
to the effect that no one hence
forth should talk except when
same is actually necessary.
The bane Of our lawmaking
body is the perpetual round of
useless speeches. 1t seems that
many of the men of both houses
have only to open their mouths,
and then, like Tennyson's brook,
they go on and on forever. In
general, it is this tendency to ora
toricals that consumes so much
time in the enactment even of the
most urgent and vital laws.
At any rate, it sounds strange
to hear women chiding the men
because they talk too much, ano
suggesting that they adopt the
golden rule of silence, and fur.
ther, to find her proposal taken SC
very seriously by our lawmakers
at the national capital.

peoples conduct.
A better way than Mr.. Voliva's
would probably be that adopted
by the men of Venice, Italy, sew
eral centuries ago, when they grew
Jealous because their women were
running around too much. They
struck upon the plan of putting
high heels upon the women's shoes,
thinking that the impeachment
would limit their movements. To
make the women like the innova-
ton, they adorned the high heels
with precious stones and other or
naments. The plan worked beau
tifully. High heels became the
vogue, the women often vying
with one another in trying to in
crease the height. This was the
beginning of high heels; and even
yet many women seem to like
them.

help him explain many things
which puzzle him in his endeavors
to penetrate the, to him, inexpli-
cable mysteries Of life.
Paper cutting, clay modelling
and the sand table furnish him
material which will enable him to
see his mind pictures more clearly
and will lead him to be doer as
we'll as a dreamer.
We are all dreamers of dreams.
Every worthwhile act that has
been given to the world was first a
dream in the mind of some person.
Every book which has been writ
ten, every picture painted, even
every field which has been cult
waited was first just a flight of i'm
aginative fancy.
The successful person is one
who dreams, then organizes his
thinking and becomes a doer.
Childhood is the imaginative pc
Rod. The flights of fancy ex-
pressed may sometimes be anus
ing to their elders, but to children
they are very real.

Law Saves Caruso Family
Z + + i + i 4 + i 4 4 4 Il # i

It is interesting to American
women to note how Italy has
handled the estate of the great
tenor, Caruso, who died recently,
leaving only will made before
his marriage and therefore contain
ing no provision for his wife and
child.
In America, the terms of the
will would doubtless have been
carried out regardless of the injus-
tice inflicted upon his Immediate
family. In fact, the ancient date
would have made no difference;
for even if the will had been made
within the last month of his life
and by it he had deliberately dis
inherited his wife and child, it
would in all probability still have
been held valid.
In Italy, no man is given the
power to dlspossess his dependents
in any such, manner. Rather, the
law holds that their claim can not
be disregarded or extinguished.
So the italian court made short
shrift of the will in this case and
gave one-half Of Caruso's estate,
which amounted to approximately
five million dollars, to his little
daughter, Gloria, while the re.
naming half was divided among
his wife, a brother, and favorite
nephew.

Will Women End War?

The position of women in the
business world, as we'll as the po-
lltical world since the suffrage
amendment, gives them new and
grave responsibility in regard, to
war.
During the world war, Lord As
quith said Without the aid of
women, England could not carry
on the war"
If his statement was true, the
conclusion is that it lies within the
power Of the women of the world
to prevent any possible future war.
If such condition were to arise
again, which responsibility would
they assume,-that of helping a.
long a war, or would they take a
stand that would prevent war?
Will it really be the women of
the world who will put stop to
war? The international Women's
Suffrage Association, with Carrie
Chapman-Catt as president, and
the Women's international League
for Peace, with Jane Adams at its
head, and other fourishing wo-
mems peace societies in different
parts of the country, all count In
the direction of peace and there is
not an international organization
or league of men which can COM
pare with them in influence.
Will the women use their inau-
ence against using brutal force in
the settlement of international
difficulties?

Help Child to See Visions Clearly

There is period in our child's
development when his mind is free
to wander over the hills of fancy
and he has difficulty in linking the
real with the unreal.
1t is the opportunity time of life
and every one of us to whom is en-
trusted the care and development
OF a little child needs to study and
understand it in order that we
may make the most of it.
We grownups would give any.
thing in our power if we might
have developed in us the power of
vision which our little tots from
three to six possess, and yet in
stead Of fostering it in our children
we do our best to stile it.
The seed of genius lies in many
OF our children and we, not UNDER
standing, do our best to crush out
the very thing which we are en-
deavoring to cultivate.
What the child needs is assist
ance that he may see his visions
clearly, and then we should furnish
him with some plastic material
with which he can make his dreams
come true.
The imaginative child is living
in an unreal world and fairy tales

The Problems OF
HOME AND FAMILY
A Talk with our Wives, Mothers,
and Sisters
A Bitter Fruit of Love

There are two mistakes in the
training of little babies which are
so serious as to deserve the
thoughtful attention of allmothers.
One OF them will be considered in
these paragraphs.
We are frequently puzzled to
know the cause Of the crying of
the little babe in the cradle. It
can not tell us; and our fancy con-
jures up a whole train of pains and
miseries which we imagine are tor
turing it. Our pity and mother
love sway us irresistitly. Present.
ly we find ourselves ministering to
every trivial, childish want of the
little one without any regard
whatever for its actual cause or
need.
This failure to distinguish be-
tween the demands that should be
granted and those that should not
is our first great mistake in dealing
with the little child. This does
not imply that we do not know
the difference between the two
kinds of demands for we usually
DO. By the manner of the outcry,
the tone of the voice, the express
sion on the little face, and in other
ways we may read the signs that
tell us whether the trouble is real
or make-believe. We are not
often deceived; and we probably
have no right to offer this excuse
for the sin which we commit.
For what we do is this: We run
to wait upon the child at every
little wall even though we may
know full well that the outcry
comes from no real pain. We
take the babe up and fondie it
walking about and rocking it; and
so we fasten upon the helpless in.
FAINT, even before the dawn of con.
seriousness, a habit that is to fol.
low it and make it miserable all
through life. For this practice Of
demanding that Others minister to
our every want is the beginning OF
a selfish disposition which dooms
one to live and die self-centered
and friendless.
To mar a life by sheer careless.
ness and weakness is an offense TO,
which there can hardly be any
atonement. Yet many of us are
doubtless living under the shadow
| of this grievous sin.

Cleaning Gloves

Soap and water will not clean
your soiled kid gloves, but soap
and milk will. Spread smoothly
on a towel which has been folded
several times. Dip a piece of
clean flannel into the milk and
then rub off some of the soap.
With this rub the gloves down
ward toward the fingers. Con-
tinue until the glove, if white,
looks yellow. or if dark, until it
looks black. Then hang up to dry.
