TT was back in the days when
women still were struggling to
demonstrate their fitness to vote.
They had a great parade, COM
posed Of groups representing the
businesses and professions in
which they have distinguished
themselves in the past fifty years.
Up Fifth avenue they marched,
a joyous, triumphant throng.
There were nurses in their white
uniforms and stenographers and
newspaper women and artists and
playWrights and teachers In their
mortarboards and gowns.
And after they had marched q
very long time some OF their hats
fell a little awry and the wind
tore loose ragged ends or hair ana
dust grimed their faces and they
looked very tired in spite OF their
triumph.
And when the women doctors
tramped by, eyes front and chins
high like their hearts, a man
watching from the curb laughed.
They're not very beautiful!
he remarked.
"And I. turned to him." said
the woman who toldame the story,

Does he understand people? These
are questions asked by employers
or the public as the case may be.
Do they object If his nose is

1t against him because he's past
the flapper age.
Why then shouldn't the same
standards apply to women who
enter business and the professions
try to make good on what they
knoW-not on how they look?
There's curious impression
among some folks that when a
woman climbs professionally, she
descends personally in proportion.
OF course that's not true. A
woman with the vision and
brains to make good as a work
er, has sense enough to know
that she cannot afford to look
freakish or disheveled or dOwdy.
A neat appearance means
welI-ordered mind, whether for
man or woman.
But that is apart from fem
mime beauty. rather think that
getting the world out Of the
habit OF looking at beauty as
business asset is womens own
problem.
The world needs education and
it's up to women workers to give
it, tactfu1ly Of course, but surely.

number of farmers apparently
feel it financially safe to stay on
