housewives of America Is unintellf-s
gent, menial and deserving OF none
but the shabbiest recognition. II the

woman as mentally inferior, then YOU
and 1 and our mothers before us arc

v y n
I DOUBT If many women analyZe
l. their feeling toward the house
maids but they reveal that feeling in
their daily acts. Back of the indiffer-
ence and unkindness lies a conviction
that somehow they're not like u.s."
But they are like u.s."
The young maid loves beautiful
flowers, soft lights, restful or viva
cious music, dainty appointments, as
much as the young mistress. She
cherishes her friends as greatly and
desires as ardently to entertain them
charmingly. She has as intense a
hunger to make her personal life ex-
pressive and unique. And because
her work brings her into such con-
stant contact with dinginess, she
she leaves that work How much Of
it does she get? No wonder the girls
of America are refusing to do house
work and are forcing selfish, thought
less women to shift for themselves,
1t is not necessary that the en-
ploye should eat at the same table
with the employer or share in the
intimate family life. Any sensible
house worker prefers a measure of
privacy just as the members of the
family prefer 1t. But the house
should be made a home for the
worker as well as for those who are
served. If she cannot be given a
sitting room for herself, she should
be allowed to use the family living
room occasionally for the entertain
ment of her friends. She should be
assured of as comfortable a bed as
any member OF the family, of as rest
ful and attractive a nook where she
may eat, OF as easy chair to rest in
between her hours of work. And.
above all. her time off" should be
held as sacred as her employers.
They have no more right to demand
OF her her private time than she has
to demand of them their private for
tunes.
DO unto others as ye would have
others do unto you" If you were
pennlless tomorrow doing housework
Tor living. would you wish your
employer to do unto you" in the
same measure of dinginess which
YOU mete out to the girl who serves
you, my friend?

Quartz Working.

C1NCE it takes an exceedingly high
temperature to melt quartz so as
to make It up into tubes or vessels.
1t follows that more or less Ingenuity
must be exercised in this direction.
1t was only about ten years ago that
the proper methods for doing this
were asoertained
quartz vessels are a great aid in
cases where substances must be
heated to high degree. a degree at
which glass would break.
Ihere Is now employed an electric
furnace whereby there are turned out
expedftionsly tubes and many shapes
of vessels. Pieces of the transparent
rock crystal are placed in a. crucfbIe
and this Is then exposed to the power
full heat Of the electric arc so that at
certain degree of heat the quartz
begins to soften. Then the operator
taxes out a piece and continues the
heating by the hydrogen blow
pipe so as to make up the quartz
into a thin rod. BY winding this
round in spiral and then melting to :
gether, tube or a vessel OF any
usual shape and even some of a com
plicated sort. are fashioned. but this
process requires special skill on the
part of the workman.
The quartz is not entirely melted
in the electric furnace, but is only
softened. as this method is found to
be the best.
Quartz thermometers are the ex-
traordinary achievements In this line.
These may be used to register high
degrees of heat, whereas glass used
for this purpose would melt. Tubes
for mercury vapor lamps are also
made in this way.

willing to fight for them, whereas
they only talked about them For
the homes which were built on eco
nomic injustice were not beautiful:
and the spirit which hurt the race
because "it wasn't nice to talk about
the things which pertained to the
race, was not the spirit of truth.
Let the little Happer pass! For a
while she will destroy that which it
were better to save, perhaps. For a
while she will break and waste and
commit much foolishness. But, never
theless, she will be clearing the trail
as women never have cleared it be-
fore. And if you would be numbered
among the quick, rather than the
dead, follow after where she leads.

American Rice.

DURING the past two decades the
development of rice culture into
one of the leading Industries Of our
gulf states has established the fact
that American rice is Of a very high
grade. Proof is furnished from Cuba,
where rice is eaten at every meal, and
where the American product has al
ready won the reputation of being
superior in richness Of flavor and in
nutritive quality to the rice of India,
China or Japan.

WORK SISTERS.

other day We were classmates
as children and she has been
dear to me for many year She
was never a. very bright girl, nor in
the least beautiful. But she was
kind, cheerful and fair. So 1 treas
ure her friendship and go to her
whenever I can, although the visits
always leave me wretchedly un-
happy.
We sit in her musty, dingy little
room with it's broken furniture ugly
pictures, lumpy cotton bedding and
lumpier bed springs, and although my
friend laughs in brave indifference
to it all, my heart aches for her. I
remember how she loved beauty as
child, and how little she had of it
at home. I think of the years of
loyal service she has given-then I
look at the place where she spends
her few resting hours, and hot in
dignation wells within me. For my
friend is general housemiad" and
she shares the fate of her caste.
She is as well educated as her mis-
tress (they are both high school
graduates) and infinitely more sensi-
tive to beauty and the humanities.
Yet because she serves, this Is her
lot. And although 1 have visited her
in many homes in which she has
worked, never yet have / seen her in
a room which was any more attrac-
tive or comfortable than her present
one.
OFTEN when I visit my friend I
" think of little Elsa. Elsa is only
five, an adorable tumble head, newly
come from Mexico. For four years
Elsa had chartered, laughed and loved
in Spanish. Then she came to Amer
lea, and a problem faced her. How
was she to transform the warmth of
that Spanish feeling into the cool for
mality of English speech? What, for
instance, was she to call that dear
worker who had tended her since
birth, sharing every baby joy and
sorrow?
Elsa had never heard the word ser
want" What is even more to the
point, she had never felt the atti-
tude which underlies the average
democratic Americans use of that
word. She had always felt something
at once more intimate and humane
So when at last her baby tongue hit
upon a title which suited her, she
called the housemaid-"work sister.
I thought of Elsa as ] looked at
my friends unlovely room. The rest
Of the house was restful and charm
ing, but in this abiding place of
the one who contributed so vitality
to the making of that home, there
was nothing inspiring, nothing at
tractive, or comfortable or even new
and whole.
Housework is at pest a monotonous
proposition. But the housewife has
her compensations. Hers is a crea-
tive job, and. however tired she may
be, she has the qualification of know
ing that she fills a position Of dignity
and Importance. Not so the house
maid. She, too, creates, but others
reap the benefits. and she knows, to
her own bitterness, that she is rated
as the least intelligent of all menials.
If you doubt this. study the ordi-
nary servants room as have studied
it. The mistress room is delightful
haven, delicately lighted, softly cush-
ioned, beautified with flowers and
pictures.
The maids room is a ch-all for
discarded rubbish and cast-off fur
niture.
This is not only unjust. 1t is alb
surd. If the service performed by
the housemaids of America is unin-
telligent, menial and deserving of
none but the shabbiest recognition,
then the service performed by the

"OVercOat Hall"

There was an air of patriarchal dig
nifty about 'Overcoat Hall" It looked
one Of New Yorl1's old downtown
streets in the face with somethine
akin to pride, despite the fact that
it's red-brick front was dulled by de-
facing dust and its low stdop sham
bled bit under the burden of age.
Years ago it had been a mansion, -
prtded, almost petted. But when New
York crept uptown it had been toe
cumbersome to carry along. And
now It was "Overcoat Hall" sur
rounded by new and noisy human
neighbors who knew nothing of its
tradition.
