.It SENS to me that many irritations are

the first place the woman Ii no longer con-
fronted with the necessity of going to her
husband for every penny. Doing 50 brings
much bitterness into the lives of many
women. The family has much more money
to spend, which relieves the financial strain

wondered just what experience this
frank, intelligent, wholesome, middle aged
woman had back Of her to lend weight to

and discovered . romance.
7 HAD not thought Of her, for instance
being anything but q native born Ameri
can woman, and Jet she told me that at the
age Of fifteen she spoke not q word Of
English. In fact, she lived in far away
Sweden upon q farm and had seen no more
of this big world than could be gained by
hiding away in her fathers farm wagon and
coming down to the town Of Lidkoping, with
its 1000 population, situated on Lake Wiener.
back in the interior of that Far Northern
land, and meeting those early risers who
came to market at dawn. .... .
Matilda Anderson, her mother, was an
ambitious woman, much given to reading,
and it was through her that the family came
to know Of the opportunities that lay in

one day." she told me, when a great COM
motion broke out up at the offer end. Two
OF the Irish girls, sisters, were coming down
through the floor crying out e1citedly, Our
Kits fired, our Kits fred They were
urging their fellows to join them in a pro-
test. Kit was their sister. Soon the whole
floor was thrown into commotion. All work
ceased.
II inquired into the situation and found
that the foreman had dismissed the girl upon
the claim that she was doing bad work.
was assured that the work was not bad. By
this time the superintendent had arrived and
We presented our protest to him. Let's see
the work. he demanded. The tops that
Kit had been stitching were produced and
the stitching on them was something awful.
1t was here that j learned the lesson Of
procuring all the facts before presenting a
case But this was a typical case Of the
sort Of thing which i handled during all
those years In the factory"
i dent Of Local No. "a, United Boot and
Shoe Workers. This was getting up in the
. industrial world. In this post she became
an executive. 1t was often her business to
meet with employers and bargain with them
as to the wages that the members Of her
union should receive or the conditions under
which they should work. It was wits match.
ing wits and the stake was often more vital
than mere money. She had become q fighter
in the ranks for better conditions under
which to labor. As q representative Of her
union also she made occasional trips to other
cities, there to observe other conditions and
come in contact with other minds
So 1t came to pass that, after eighteen
years at her machine, Mary Anderson was
called into the national field As an organizer
for the National Woman's Trade League
and that she should have worked eight years
in that field before the United States found
itself in war. Then It was but natural that
the Government should draft this woman Of
wide industrial experience and should make
her an arbitrator who should stand between
the Government and that army Of women
who worked that the production Of munitions
might be maintained. So she came into
Government service aud 50 she came to head
the woman's Bureau Of the Labor Depart
ment. when in 1920 II finally came to make
nm a Mace in the great governmental or
eanization. So was the long Journey made
from the farm in Sweden to leadership in the
problems vital to women In the greatest

ASKS AID FOR
negro SICK
Mrs. H. F. Brown Issues
Appeal in Behalf of Edge
wood Sanitarium
OUTDOOR SCHOOL
LUNCHES NEEDED

Vivid appeal in behalf OF the in
mates OF the Edgewood home for
colored tubercular sufferers is made
by Mrs. II. Fletcher Brown. an ac-
tive worker for the institution. She
declares there is pressing need for
outdoor schools and hot lunches in
the State to combat tuberculosis.
Mrs. Brown says:
We are in great need OF rubbers
and overshoes not only for the five
children, but for the grown-ups, and
we need also warm stockings. Three
pairs Of stockings will not last a
child long.
we do not at present need any
underclothing - thanks to the
Needlework Guild-but we do need
sweaters. warm caps. muflers, nit
tens or gloves, and any outside cloth
ing like suits or coats or skirts. We
do need overshoes and rubbers and
leggings badly.
"One child's father brought him
one pair OF rubbers. which will help
some, but many OF the children VIC
have sent to us are from large fam
lies whose parents have very hard
time TO get along at all.
I'VE have one small boy from
down State who is one OF eleven
children and his family seems Il
have quite forgotten him, or thrown
him into the discard. He is bumped
back, club footed, cross eyed, and
has running tubercular glands. II,
is, TO put IL mildly, not very bright
A more pitiful little figure canno
( be imagined.
THE best way, in my opinion. tt
stamp out tuberculosis is to built
up the children who arc exposed Z,
1t in their families and those wht
are already so under par PHYSICAL.
that they would be likely TO fal
victims to the disease. For this pur
pose we should have a children
pavilion for the worst cases. A cry

HouO Freight Rates
Can Be Reduced
(Paul Clay, in Forbes Magazine,)

the work performed by each wage
Garner, and to increase the number
Of men required for the same SER
vice.
II labor will recognize that the
roads and the public are paying
more than they can afford in rail-
road wages, and will seek TO give
service, instead OF seeking to avoid
work, the triple problem OF wages,
freight rates, and railroad earnings
can be solved.
Nothing more than slight reduc-
tions in wage scales would be re-
quired to lower operating costs II
the Brotherhoods would support a
movement for eliminating all waste
Of time and labor. The roads would
then be able to reduce freight rates
to the basis Of u the cost OF living:
and this together with a scientific
readjustment Of the rates them
selves. would apparently remove an
unwarranted burden from the
shoulders OF the public. Traffic would
be stimulated. and the larger busi-
ness, together with lower operating
costs. could probably be relied upon
to restore earning power and give
TO holders Of railroad securities me
assurance OF a fair return upon their
investment.
Evening journal., 1921-12-07

What is to be the outcome Of the
freight rate agitation7 The answer
is vital to us all.
Throughout the country there is
growing opposition to high rates on
some articles and commodities; and
both the railroads and the Interstate
Commerce Commission have recog-
nized the public demand. But the
whole matter is highly involved;
freight rates depend for their equity
partly upon commodity prices, and.
therefore. the ability OF the roads to
reduce them is largely conditional
upon corresponding reductions OF
railroad wages-and wages are
closely related to the cost Of living.
We have no high ambition here to
propose the final solution, but we do
wish to present some Of the prin-
cipal facts of the case. and to point
out some of the remedies which are
sure to be proposed and likely to be,
in part. adopted.
In spite of apparent difficulties,
there is a simple way out, IL all will
cooperate. And it would do justice
to railroad labor. to the public and
to the roads. Railroad labor can re-
duce operating costs by doing more
work.
In recent years the general trend
OF working rules has been TO reduce
