And then perhaps Baby Weeks will no

Twice recently Lady Astor has brought
pressure to bear on the Home Secretary to
induce him to appoint a woman as official
representative to the Geneva conference on
the traffic In women and children. Denmark
has appointed woman as full voting dele
gate, and France has sent woman as alter
nate delegate, but apparently nothing will
persuade Mr.. Shortt tos give way. He will
not even state what the real objection of
the British Government TO a woman repre-
sentative Is, nor what their policy is to be-
and such an attitude on such subject is
a serious thing for women.
Lady Astor pointed out that those who
have dealt specially with this subject here
in England have never been consulted and
a man has been sent who knows practically
nothing about IL. Mr.. Shortt tried to pro
tect himself from further awkward questions
by holding up the presence OF one woman
member of the National Vigilance Associa-
ton as adviser Of Great Britain's repre-
sentative as a proof OF the Government's IS
observation-disclosures where women are con
cerned But this is not an official appoint
ment, and the Government has no respon-
sibllity for It.
The conference is at this moment in ses-
sion, and 1t is considering whether 1t shall
urge the League OF Nations to appoint a
permanent international committee to ad-
wise the council Of the league on all mat
ters dealing with white slave traffic. The
conference has before II heavy task and
Its decisions will be eagerly awaited by all
women's societies throughout the world.
In this country q large number Of them
have already banded together, through the
machinery Of Lady Astor's consultative COM
mittee to urge upon the conference the ne
cessity of safeguarding women from this
infamous traffic.

Seven dollars week would not maintain
the little lad at home and provide her own
simple necessities. Something else had to be
done. The something was what she could
best do. She summoned her old and tested
accomplishment, embroidery. She worked
from to o'clock In the basement of the de-

bed linen at night.

But human energy and eyesight have their
limits. Myrtle McCleary saw that the per-
manent upward way was by means OF the
little Japanese booth in the basement She
thought and thought about the Japanese
goods.
She longed for stock different than that
Of any other Japanese goods counter she had
seen. One day she arranged some brilliantly
colored stuff on the counter as background
for the fans and vases and was rebuked for

troduced colored fabrics as a background.
He didn't like It. She sighed and folded the
beautiful colored silk and placed it back on
the shelf
She dared to make suggestions for
trining rearrangement OF the stock. She
learned that she was "fussy." But she was
not discouraged. She might not please the
buyer but she always pleased the customer.

The successive male buyers classed Mrs.
Myrtle McCleary as a pestiferous disturber
OF the old order. But in his Office, far above
the basement, the superintendent noted the
sum Of her daily sales slips. BY reason OF
this her salary grew from 81 to sS and $40
and S12 a week. She was earning s12 week
when the superintendent appointed her as
sistant buyer. She was not permitted to ac-
company the lordly male buyer about town
for souvenirs of the F1owery Kingdom But
to her was vouchsafed the privilege OF re-
ceiving, asserting and arranging the stock OF
his purchase. At which she rejoiced, for in
novations In decorations would now be toll

future advances.

head OF the department. Which means that
she bought the goods and was responsible for
their sales.
The first step on the road of Improvement
was an enlargement of the stock to include
the products OF other Asiatic countries. Mrs.
McCleary proposed that the Oriental goods
should embrace those not only of Japan but
OF China and India. She was sent to the
aged countries to gather the cream of their
products. On the first trip she accompanied
the stores "round the world buyer" who

In the minds of many to-day, however, the
subject that holds first place because 1t is
the most momentous is disarmament. Men,

nothing they.~would not do sacrifice to
make sure that there will never be another

Under hedge on the outskirts OF a
village in Surrey little old woman sat one
warm evening last week and told tales of
the merrie England of her youth. She was
the last of her race--her son and grandsons
all belonging to the army of "The Glorious
Dead"

for more love in the hearts of us ALL We've

her way toward the sunset glow, leaving
behind her much food for thought.

THE youngest and poorest paid stock

TIME youngest and poorest paid stock
girl and all the abler and higher sal
- aried women Of a big shop have
heard the story of Myrtle McCleary. 1t is a
star in the sky of their own hopes Mrs.
McCleary began her work in the stores at
81 week She now earns $4,000 a year.
She conducts business of $1,500,000 year.
Every year she sails to the Old World and
wanders in search OF Oriental objects of art
for American consumption. For six months
Of each year she goes bargain hunting in
China. Japan and India. She takes with
her on these Journeys letters of credit for
$4,000 to 100000 to pay for the rare bits
of jade, the vases that are worth far more
than their weight in gold, and the ancient
embroderies, the product of the brains Of
dead masters of drawing and color. She is
the woman who has solved many of the
mysteries of the East
This woman did not begin her business
career with the ambition which she has
achieved The sole aim and single purpose
of the young widow was TO support and edu-
cate her little son. To all her world save
herself he seemed heavy liability. 1T costs
so much to bring up a boy and send him
through school, even IL he lives" sang the
sympathy chorus Of neighbors.
Mrs. McCleary lifted her head. 1t is a
habit OF hers. A good habit because its
spiritual correspondence is resolve. She
would support that little seven-year-oid man
OF hers. She would educate him adequately
train him fully for the life fray. She was
sure she would for she would use the final
ounce of her energy for the task.
Life has justified her faith and her high
resolve She did support the little liability
whom she lovingly regarded an asset
She sent him to and through college. She
has seen him established as first ranking
chemist in an Eastern city From which she
argues that every woman must have an i'm
portant incentive to succeed.
The greatest incentive is to have to
work." she says.
The how of Mrs. McClearys success
story clings, burrlike, TO the memory. IT
stirs one to laughter at the old myth OF luck
and to faith in the reality OF applied pluck.
The young widow, with her little world of
obligation pressing heavily upon her asked
for work at the shop in question. The
superintendent inquired about her previous
experience. She had none save that to exc
out the income at home she had done some
embroidery back in Urbana, I'll. She had
embroidered table pieces and towels for her
friends and had taken up the work Of en-
broiderer for an embroidery house in Fifth
avenue but after a months Illness broke off
this connection.
