THE GIRL ON THE JOB
How to Succeed-How to Get
Ahead-How to Make Good
By JESSIE ROBERTS y
zlllIl
LIBRARIANS,

THE demand for the trained IL
L brarian is on the increase. But
many young women are leaving the
regular library to take up allied work
that pays better.
The new demand outside Of the reg
ular library comes from big business
corporations who want their business
organized. Special literature of all
sorts is part of their daily material,
and they see the need of a proper in
dexing for all this material, and for
making it available for immediate use
as the books in library are available.
Aside from the bigger concerns are
such clients as lawyer or doctor
with a large practice. Such men will
often have whole library that is use
less unless properly indexed.
Many women who began as librar-
; ians are now holding excellent posi-
tons, where their library training
proved the essential in their new
work.
AS the librarian can as yet look for
ward at best to hardly more than ST.
500 year, the best trained and more
ambitious women are following the
commercial path.
But librarians training is proving
to be excellent for other work. Many
girls do not stop at organizing special
libraries for their new employers.
They go on to become heads of depart
ments, undertake the Installing of bus
mess systems, Of filing and cata-
loguing, and even run Offices Of their
own. (Copyright)

MONOGRAMS.

THE origin of monograms is prob
l. ably Egyptian; we are certain
that the Greeks and Romans used
these devices. The merchants of the
Middle Ages used cabalistic intertwin-
ings of letters as their distinctive
marks, and the great Charlemagne
used cipher as his signature to con-
ceal his ignorance Of writing. The old
time painters and printers also had
their private marks made of their ini-
tials. It was not until the Nineteenth
century, however, that monograms be-
came popular.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS !.
"YANkEE.".

w HILE the. genesis of the
" term yankee" as applied
by the English to- Americans in
general, by Southerners to those
residing in the North and by
Northerners to New Englanders,
is shrouded in the mists Of
colonial antiquity, there are, at
least two explanations which
bear the ear-marks of truth and
logic.
The first, and most generally
accepted of these, is that the
word is. a corruption Of the
French Anglais or English"
used by the northern Indian
tribes during the early days Of
the colonies. History states that
"Yengeese" was as close as the
Indians could come to- the pro-
nunciation either Of the. word
"Anglais" or English" and it
is easy to. see how this, lin turn,
could have become TRANSMITTED
into Yankee" 80, =
Another explanation 4 trife
more scholarly, IL that Yankee
came either from the Scotch
"yankie" meaning smart: = or
shrewd or from the Dutch
"Jankin," which was the dimdnu-
tive Of Jan or John. One. au-
thority goes so far as to ydecl,sre
that "Jankin" was the generic
name applied to the English set
tiers of Connecticut !. BIZ the
Dutch settlers Of New York.
The first known usa ,ofs the.
term in print occurred In q;
poem entitled *'tOppre ssion;'
published in 1765, In viii ch APP
peated the line From me- anness
first the Portsmouth Yankee
rose" The coupling 1,f the
words Portsmouth md Yankee
would appear9sto j bear 5apa.t the
contention that the fnt1n. was
one applied princip pan 4 tot New
Englanders and there hore spdg-
inally Of Dutch origin

single or double treatment. Ten days
after weaving and before eight weeks
have elapsed from the time of the
first treatment the animals should be
vaccinated with the double treatment.
Advantages Of treating the pigs soon
after weaving are that they are light
in weight and do not require as much
serum as they would when they be-
come larger. The possibilities of OBJ
tanning lifelong immunity also are
increased If the pigs are vaccinated
at that age.
Before the treatment is applied the
animals should be taken off heavy
feed. No surgical operations should
be performed until the pigs have
fully recovered from the effects Of
the treatment.

WILL TRY PONY BLIMPS FOR
FIGHTING FOREST FIRES

Various kinds Of gas-propelled We
hicles have been used at one time or
another in the Forest Service. Uni
ted States Department Of Agriculture,
by patrolmen and fre-fghting crews.
Track speeders, motorcycles, motor
boats, automobiles, trucks, and air
planes have all been tried, and now
it is proposed to use a small dirig-
ible, technically called a pony blimp.
One of the big companies making
tires and other rubber goods in Cal
ifornia specifies these advantages for
the pony blimps: A cruising range
of 8 hours; speed Of / to As or so
miles an hour; ability to buck stiff
winds, making 10 miles an hour
against a 30-mile gale; control of
elevation, flying within so feet or less
of the earth as well as at several
thousand feet altitude; ability to
land on very small plot of ground;
maneuvering readily in close quart
ers; can be held nearly stationary
close to earth; discharges passengers
on rope ladder while machine hovers
over a selected spot; can be tied TO
fixed object while crew fights fire;
can be used for transporting sup
plies; low cost Of operation.
The blimps will be equipped with
75-horsepower Lawrence motors and
will carry three or four persons COM
fortably. The blimps will cost about
$4,000 and the operating cost is es-
timated at about "a cents a mile, in
GLIDING total maintenance of the ship
for "a hours or an actual flying time
cost Of 1-2 cents per mile.
