Identification, Taking
Marked Strides, Proves
Asset in T,UO Ways.

Beauty is overtaking the drab
American village, according to OBJ
servations of the Department of
Agriculture in a current study of viii
lage planning and its benefits.
Although nearly 20,000,000 persons
live in American villages and a farm
ing population of 30.000,000 largely
depends upon them for business,
educational and social purposes, the
department found. they are usually
unattractive and often very ugly, suf-
ferfng by comparison in this respect
with those of other countries. The
start that is being made toward i'm
provement and Identification has
proven in every case. 1T was said, a
material asset as well as an esthetic
one.
Pointing out that "as the farmers
chief point of contact with outside
interests, the village can make a
big contribution to the happiness of
farm life" the department asserted
that an attractive village with good
streets and convenient approaches
and recreation spots was IAN i'm
portant influence in stabiIizing farm
life and counteracting the attractions
of cities for the young people of the
farm"

SALARY INCREASE
COMES WITH
PROMOTION

CHICAGO, Sept. 22.--After
ca, eful survey OF the entire labor
situation extending from office boy
to president, indications are that
positions showing Increases in sal
aries require experienced help:
Consulting the president OF one
of our largest industries, the writ
er inquired regarding the rapid
success of a certain young man who
had become general manager, and
who few years ago was but office
bow: his answer was, Brown start
ed as office boy, the lowest salar1ed
position in our office, he was am
bilious and managed to purchase a
typewriter on small monthly pay
ments and after three weeks OF
practice at home he was promoted
to bill clerk, which position gave
him knowledge of the selling price
of all merchandise. His next ad-
vance was that of typist, which
taught him the numerous forms of
letter-writing and enabled him to
hold a stenographic position, CIV
ing him complete knowledge of let
ter-writing. He was then made sec
rotary, bringing him into contact
with all business details and quail
fled him for the general managers
office at ten thousand Ger year.
The same opportunity awaits ev-
cry young man and woman. Educa-
ton or age have nothing to do with
operating so simple machine as
the type writer. We are informed
that a great piece of benevolent
work is being carried on by large
Chicago mail order house in fur
nishing typewriters to people wor-

monthly installments, So low as to
average about eight cents per day
and actually teaching thei. custom
ers how to use and operate any tpe-
writer in about three weeks time.

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 26.-Food

In them is the assurance of that
independence which Georgia and the
rest of the South should fix as their
goal, according to officials of the
Georgia Department of Agriculture.
Officials of the agricultural de-
partment point to the fact that
Georgia sends millions of dollars out
of the state for food which should
be produced in Georgia, it was stat.
ed, has been doing it for years, and
it has kept the state from becom-
ing the enormously wealthy section
which its natural resources and adj
vantages long ago should have made
it.
The remarkable fact about Geor-
gia is, as agricultural department
officials show, that it has Jared
well. Every four or five years
Georgia sends a billion dollars out
of the state for food, meat, flour,
dairy products, vegetables, fruits,
hay and other products. Most of
them can be and should be raised in
Georgia, it is shown.
Georgia can raise almost any

ROSEPASTOR
STOKES SAYS
PRICE TOO Much
Says Scandal Can Only Lead to
Soul Bankruptcy. Causes
Men and Women to Live in
Indecent Wedlock
BY GENE COIN
Nea Sevice Writer.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Scandal
the price the individual must pay
society for freedom-can lead only
to soul bankruptcy.
And soul pauperdom leads to an
enslavement for worse than most
slaveries. 1t causes men and women
to live together in indecent wcdlock
after love is gone rather than pay
the price exacted by conventions.
This is the warning Of Mrs. Rose
Pastor Stokes the London Stun
girl who married millionaire but
who went on fighting the battle Of
the underdog and the radi"al and
the militant. 1t rises from her recent
divorce experiences when, under the
New York divorce laws, her hus-
band had no recourse but to allege a
love affair outside of wedlock. This
as she points out, constitutes scan
dial in the eyes of the world.
"But the real scandal is a divorce
law which brings such a situation to
pass" Mrs. Stokes points out. "The

mantle of shame seems to fall upon
the defendant, but it should be piac-
ed upon the shoulders of the state
where it properly belongs"
Thus is raised again the old, old
question-which is more scandalous
the husband and wife who continue
to live together when love has died,
or the man and woman who live in
love outside of wedlock?
''Mr. Stokes and l have been lit
tie more than friends during a great
portion of our marriage" she relates.
eve had such profound differences
of opinion that both of US suffered
from the domestic and personal
situations that developed. l wanted
to be freed, even when lived under
the same roof. l begged him to give
me my freedom"
The whole life of Mrs. Stokes has
been a fight for freedom as she
saw it.
Born in the London slums she
fought her way out and, as a girl,
came to America. In Cleveland she
became a cigar maker and there her
struggle for economic freedom be-
gan. She studied and educated her
self in literature and the arts. Com
ing to New York she went on the
staff of a Jewish newspaper. She
made some little reputation as a
writer and became engaged in settle
ment work, trying to find freedom
for other children of the ghetto.
1t was there that slum girl met
the millionaire, James Graham
Phelps Stokes, a man of socialistic
and humanitarian tendencies. He haC
interested himself in settlement
work. The romance, ending in mar
! riage, attracted national attention.
But Mrs. Stokes struggle went on
freedom expression, and then the
feminist movement and suffrage
then in labor matters, and when the
war came she brought herself to the
edge of a prison sentence demanding
freedom of speech for pacifists
and conscientious DIRECTORS. She had
cast her lot on the radical side and
there was more than little scandal
at the time.
With the war, she says, she and
Stokes became friendly enemies. "
This marital break brought her to
her latest battle for the freedom of
love-"
Love is always Justified" she
affirms. Gwen if mistaken and
short-lived. The prevailing social
customs degrade love and sanctions
the unwholesome and degrading and
destructive relationship of man and
woman living together without
love. Such a condition-even with
the benefit of Justice of the peace
violates the very best that is in
man and woman.
During its existence love emo
bles the nature of man and woman
experiencing it and those who go on
without it destroy in themselves

HAIR BOBBINC
COSTS Much
Not the First Cost, But the Up
keep; Increase of Barber
Shops Now 10000

ATLANTA, Oct. 16.-Add to
items in the High cost of living-hair
bobbing.
The fashion of bobbed hair, ac-
cording to figures of Atlanta hair
dressing shops, has at least to its
credit; the stimulation of various in
dustries and trades. There are now,
it was stated21, 900 hairdressing
shops in the United States, as com
pared with 5000 five years ago. And
of course the BARRIERS who formerly
catered exclusively to the male trade
are now doing an extensive business
i'll "bobbing" the female of the spe-
cies.
Like an automobile or a wife, it's
not so niue hthe first cost but the up
keep, of bobbed hair The bobbed-
haired woman, if she is to be at all
presentable, needs the services of
the hairdresser urgently and regu-
larly. So BARRIERS services are now
a regular item of household expenses
like milk and ice. Dad not only has
to pay to have his own hair cut, but
must shell out for Friend Wife and
the girls, too.
Of course there's no reason why
the privilege of having ones hair
cut should be exclusively masculine.
We might all save money if we5d
go back to Russian hirsute styles, but
since we are willing to pay the price
for the men, why not for the women,
also? 1t just takes little more and
perhaps Father moy get some con-
ISOLATION in looking forward to the
invention and wide sale of a really
good and practical "Home Hair
Bobber."
