WELFARE WORK

TT IS certain that welfare work in
i the big industrial and commercial
enterprises is going to see great OK
mansion. 1t has been proved that 1t
pays. And once that proof Is recog-
nized no plant that has a forward
looking policy is going to be without
its welfare department, and its trained
welfare expert. This work Is especial
liz suited to women, and 1t Is up to
woman who wishes to enter the field
TO get her necessary training and then
go out after the job. She will land
It. for the supply of good welfare
workers is far below the growing de-
mand.
II is becoming generally known to
even the most reactionary of employ
ers that contented body of workers
is their safest and soundest asset. The
woman who Is able to reconcile differ
ences between the employees and the
employer, who can explain the one
TO the other, is often able to avoid a
disastrous strike.
OF course, such woman must I'M
derstand the proper installation or
rest-rooms, the managing Of luncheons
at cost, the proper airing and warm
ing of the workrooms. But even more
necessary is II that she should nave
the power to win the confidence ana
respect of those for whom she works.
She must be known to be fair and just,
and she must join sympathy and hui
NOR In her makeup If she is to succeed
In making both sides believe in her.
"You've got to be human clear to
the marrow of your bones" one woman
who has the welfare Of thousand
EMPLOYEES in her charge said to me.
"There isn't a job in the world
would change for this one, but make
no mistake, It's full of pitfalls and it's
hard work The girls here come to

DID YOU DREAM OF MONEY!

VXIHEN It comes to Il matter Of
w money the oracles seem to dis
pute over Filthy lucre" just as ordi-
nary mortals are apt to do, Some Of
them say that to dream Of finding mon
ey Is a bad sign, indicating losses |,
and dreaming of losing money is n
good sign, indicating gain; probably
working on the dreams go by con-
traries' hypothesis. But the best and
most eminent authorities do not agree
to this. Some Of them admit that to
dream of finding money signifies wor-
rles, but DECLARE that out of these tenn
porary worries great good will come !.
while others content themselves with
the statement that to dream of finding
money Is lucky. All agree that to
dream of losing money Is sign of
good business, though one authority
darkly hints that you may have a spat
