BUSINESS, BRAINS AND
BREECHES

City jobs and salaries are time
wasters, according to Ruth Fliesbach.
She thinks she is probably earning
the largest income Of any person in
Hays, Kan, and fully intends to make
1t larger within two years.
The chief setback she has found is
the belief Of the average chair-warm-
er in the average big Office that "only
man can do that; it's contagious,
and the girl wastes time accepting the
dictum that business, brains and
breaches are inseparable.
Ruth Fliesbach was orphaned when
she was three. At seventeen she was
teaching. At nineteen her savings had
gone into a commercial course and
she tried five jobs in one year look
ing for one that would pay more than
$3.50 a week. For the sixth, II coralled
q bunch of positions for part time.
Soon / was earning the $15 week l
had set out to get. But 1t kept me
racing all the way from the city mar
ket (this was in Kansas City, to the
far corners of uptown.

about, sometimes waiting in line with
30 others. When 1 answered one ad

baby doll who sat next me, and said
Two years experience required My

So looked at the baby doll and then
at the manager and said: You won't
be able to buy my services for $50 a
month Them Two weeks later he had
fred the pretty girl and was on his
pay roll. In FIVE years there 1 reached
$50 a month, but that was the most
any girl could hope for.
I'm a feryor of patriotism 1 turned
court reporter in Hays so the young
man could go to the front. That paid
me, with fees, about $3.50 a month"
After other adventures Miss Fliesba oh
became successfully secretary of the
chamber of commerce and publicity
director of building and investment
company. Her ambition is to start an
advertising agency, fright in Hays to
help the small town merchant adver
tise his goods and compete with the
mail order houses"

Reading the Palm

What" demanded the skeptic, can
you tell by looking at a persons
hand?" "You can tell a good DEAL"
said the palmist. IF a woman wears
a platinum circlet on the third finger
of her left hand she is just married.
If she wears plain gold band the
marriage dates further back. If she
wears a diamond ring on this finger
she's engaged. If she's engaged she's
probably in love. That's all women
want to know about-love and mar
riage. Yes, by looking at persons
hand you can tell good deal and
surmise whole lot more. "-Rehoboth

MARY
SUCCEEDS
ON
MAIN STREET
By LAURA MILLER
THE UNIVERSITY OF
THE YARDS
g, 1924, by Laura Miller

"Nfain Street can't train girls to
earn a living" is a plant that runs
through thousands of letters, in one
wording or another, from girls who
seek careers. True, it is that courses
in biology, in art, in medicine, are not
to be found at any crossroads. But
suppose fury of desire to paint peO-
ple-or to cut them up and remold
them nearer to good health's desire
doesn't drive Mary off Main Street,
Shall she forsake family and friends
and all the comfortable, homely things
one grows up with, for casual ca
reer? If ones just the average girl,
may not the little home town job,
where a conscientious worker learns
something of everything, help out If
the great test comes?
Let me tell you the story of Mary
Marshall Of Marshalltown, Ind 1t
was early in 1919. War brides were
hurrying to meet transports from
France. Fathers in khaki were losing
their look born of horrors as they
gazed upon miraculous little sons that
recalled their own before-the-war
selves.
Mary Marshall, nee Hopkins, had
just come to Washington for a job
that would support herself and John,
Jr. She and john Sr., had run the
railroad and village telegraph office
until 1918. Then she had abruptly be-
come Mrs. Marshall and sole operator.
She was a competent worker, evident
ly. And she knew she was releasing
not merely a man, but her man for
war service. When John, Jr., arrived
she gave up work and lived with Fa-
Their and Mother Marshall.
The day Mary came to mel was
running Uncle Sans employment Of
fee in Washington just then-I tried
to send her back to MarshalltOwn.
She had home. She had baby to take
care of. And she waS-so / told her
practically unframed. Hadn't she
come straight from the corner Of Main
Street and Railroad Avenue?
Mary Marshall wouldn't go back to
Marshalltown. After a generous por-
Ilon OF Stupldlty on my part ana or
shyness on hers, the story came out.
John, ST., was in a Washington hos
pital, shell-shocked His chances for
sanity lay in seeing Mary and John,
Jr., every day. A job was found for
Mary as correspondence clerk in the
telegraph division of the United States
Railroad administration. 1t was no
charity job, either. "There isn't any
thing she didn't learn something about
in that little dump of an office in the
railroad yards" her chief said later.
''She's all to the good"
For obvious reasons, Mary Marshall
and Marshalltown aren't her real
name and address. But the story is
real to the core.
