HUNGRY AND THIRSTY
I'm hungry not for steak and bread
But for the blue skies overhead:
I'm hungry not for meat and pie.
But for the white clouds drifting by
And for the banks beside a stream
Where may rest awhile and dream.
I'm thirsty. not for wine to drink
In lighted halls where glasses clink.
But for the days refreshing breeze
Filtered thru fragrant orchard trees, I
And for the joys Of field and hill
Where weary eyes may drink their fill.
i need observation-disclosures the sort
of table board or bottled quart,
But strength renewed by wandering far
Where all the summe6s snlendors are,
A day or two where waters roll
And can be refreshed OF soul

Dorothy Dix Talks
Too Proud To work..

II
Jane Is strong and husky. She is
unusually intelligent and well edu-
Gated. She is full Of pep and energy.
She is an expert stenographer, and
has a good job with a big firm.
By all the~rules that apply to such
a situation Jane ought to be on her
way, and going strong, to a private
secretaryship, and a fat pay envelope.
| but she isn't. She is stuck, and she
| doesn't get ahead any, and she is
grouchy and disconnected, and is fret
ting herself into a case of nerves.
Now the thing that is the matter
with Jane is pride. Silly. false pride.
She is ashamed of working. 1t NOR
titles her to death to be@claSsed a
working woman, and she considers be-
ing called a stenographer the greatest
insult that could be offered her.
She isn't lazy. She really doesn't
dislike the effort it requires to do the
labor she does.~ She likes the at
mosphere of the office with its orderly
hustle and hustle, ana the sense it
gives one of being part of a big power
full machine that is crashing its way
along to great achievements She is
interested in the work itself, and she
would enjoy doing it, and be happy,
and successful if only she could get
over her idiotic idea that there is some
stigma attached to a girls earning her
own living.
That's why she fails. Nobody can
put any enthusiasm, any heart, any
punch, into doing the thing they are
ashamed of doing We have got to
believe that our work is the greatest
thing in the world, the most irnpor-
tant, the most interesting, and that
just to be doing it clothes US with
glory and distinction in order to &C
complish anything worth while.
It's the stenographer who is
ashamed of being a stenographer who
never learns to spell or punctuate, or
gets any more speed. and who never
rises to the position of a private secre :
tary. It's the boy who is ashamed
of being a carpenter. who is such a
poor carpenter that he never gets to
be a Contractor, and so on, thru the
whole list of human occupations. We
have got TO have pride in our work
to make it good work.
Jane considers herself a highly
modern, up-to-date young woman. She
would be amazed and indignant If
anyone called her mid-VictOrian, but
surely her idea that people look down
on a girl for earning her own living
belongs to a vanished day.
She's wrong there. The girl that
people look upon with contempt in
these times is the husky, able bodied,
young woman who sits around and
Ftwiddles her thumbs. and lets her poor
old father work himself to death to
support her, or the girl who gratis her
living off her relatives, or the public,
instead of going out, and earning it
herself.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I went with
a boy for about a year and half and
we thought a great deal of each other.
A few months ago he moved and soon
after we quit corresponding entirely.
Before he moved we planned for him
to spend his vacation with me. Do
you think it would be all right for me
to go ahead with out plans or drop
them completely.
MAJORIE MARIE.
If he stopped writing to you, drop
the plans for vacation entirely. If,
however. you stopped writing to him,
and now you want him to come, write
again and invite him.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am only
a poor girl but I am to be married
the latter part of this month. My
fiance says that he will buy my we'd
ding dress, but mother says it>would
be better to be married in a dress that
already have. Which is correct?
BRIDE TO BE.
Your mother is correct After you
are married it will be all right for
the man to buy your clothes for you,
but not before.

The Harding administration has in
troduced a new system in the regula-
ton of business by substituting sug-
gestion. for coercion An example OF
this policy is seen in the action, of
Secretary Hoover when he called the
/ coal. dealers into conference in an ef-
fort to stabilize coal prices during the
existence 6f the strike. What Mr..
Hoover said to the dealers of course
is not known but they departed prom
Using to give heed to his suggestions.
Another case in point is seen in
President Harding's recent summons
of the iron and steel masters of the
country for a conference at the White
House on the elimination of the ~
hour day. For some years, or since
the disapproval of long hours work
or excessive drudgery in industrial oc-
equations has been manifested by en-
public sentiment, progress
sive iron and steel manufacturer it is
said, have made repeated efforts to
meet a difficult situation rendered so
by the peculiar conditions of their
business.
As far back as 1907 the United
States Steel corporation took a stand
for the redl ction of Sunday work and
the long turn to a minimum. In 1910
the American Iron & Steel institute
adopted a resolution favoring the
abolition of Sunday work in the works
and named a committee to study the
question with the purpose of adopting
the plan as far as possible. In 1911
the steel corporation named a COM
mittee of its officers and stockhoId-
ers to study all phases of its employ
ment relations. with particular refer
ence to the 7-day Week. long turn
and 12-hour day. On October l, 1918,
the steel corporation put in effect the
basic S-hour day for all its operations.
Other manufacturers have followed a
practically similar course
But, apparently, progress has been
too STOW to suit the president. And
now there seems to be ground for be-
lief that action will be expedited.
Probably these are examples of what
the president meant when he talked
about putting more business in gov
eminent
1t must be said for<the adrlin:stra-
ton that It Is proceeding in its course
without buster or appeals to the
grandstand. 1t is unfortunate that
so much cannot be said for congress.

The labor members of the railroad
labor board continue to pirate Of a ''liv-
ing wage" altho it must be apparent
that there is not and cannot be any
such fixed standard. A wage that
one family could live on comfortably
would be wholly inadequate for an
other. Most persons contrive to live
on what they get and nearly all prefer
to increase their income rather than
to reduce their expenses Whist the
country needs is the establishment Of
an equitable wage and nothing but
the working Of the economic law will
bring it about.
