Women Who Labor.

1t was stated by a speaker before the Ma
tional Federation of Business and Professional
Women's Clubs that there are 100000 women
in the United States who follow gainful occu-
patons. Her figures evidently were based upon
the census of more than IL years ago. They
fall short in another respect also. Her emu
meration failed to take account of woman's big
gest industry that of making home. This
is the fault of the man-devised and directed
census that follows the medieval viewpoint
that women who look after their own homes
are women of mo occupation.
The speaker is congratulated on matter
1t seems that she did not utter any of the
usual drool about the housewife being a sort
of house slave, existing on theNdoubtful bounty
of the husband and father. This usually passes
at face value among the uplifters and forward
lockers. The housewife, in the great majority
of genuine homes in America, knows the pay
envelope is just much hers it is any
member of the household. She does not appear
upon the books engaged in a gainful occu-
patton, but that is merely the way society, as
The home woman, after all is said, gains from
her occupation just about what her sister Ill
industry gains. She gains her living and some
thing more, depending upon the circumstances.
No, in most well-regulated households the pay
envelope is not regarded monopoly of the
husband 1t is no more tRan joint fund.- divis-
ible by the co-partnership.
