CONCERNING CLUBS
: By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

The general convention of Women's Clubs which
met recently at Atlantic City, decided to take for its
main object in the next two years the development Of
the American home
One Of the best ways to accomplish this task is
to quit organizing clubs. We American women. like
husbands, seem be running and more to
conventions. we have a thousand organizations to
tell how to live lives, how to manage homes.
how to raise children We forever going to
committee meetings and passing resolutions and elect
ing officers and compiling minutes, when il do
have small children we had best be at home making

the home woman. But gradually must be con-

What mothers should do these days is spend
more time with their children. Instead of attempting
to raise them by somebody eses rule they should

attention and affection lots Of prayers to bring
up children.
The women at Atlantic City hit upon one real
truth however when they said that the fathers well
the mothers need reformation about home life
If fathers would resign from half their clubs and
at home with their wives and children, would have
less need for psychology experts and divorce courts
and reformation homes. Twentieth century men and
women to have passion for joining things. If
they can't get in, they will organize club of their
own. which will never lack members.
We need cooperation between husbands and
wives and this is the only way that going to
be able to return the American home its old position
of influence in the lives of the CHILDREN. The modern
woman of possibilities interesting oc

Morse Plays the Game
Hard Only to Find It
Futile in End.
BY NJ. e. Tracy

Charles w. Morse, schemer, pro-
prefer, claims the front page once
more and perhaps, for the last time.
-Four years ago, he was indicted
for using the mails to defraud, but
for one reason or another, his case
was allowed to hang fire.
Now, and for reasons that are
equally obscure to the layman, his
case is marked for trial and he is
ordered to appear and plead before
the United States District Court at
New York within a week.
In asking for a dismissal of the
indictment yesterday or at least
further delay, Mr.. Morses counsel
said:
I'm the winter a year ago, he
suffered two strokes of paralysis.
He cannot walk without assistance,
cannot talk without difficult and his
powers Of expression and COM
prehension are small. In other
words, he is a hopeless paralytic.
In reply to this, the prosecuting
attorney intimated that Mr.. Morse's
condition was not as serious as
described. pointing out that a Gov
eminent physician had reported that
his heart and lungs were in or
dinarily good shape and that such
SYMPHONIC of paralysis as he dis
played could be simulated.
I'VE all recollect." he added, that
Mr.. Morse, while serving "a sentence
In the Atlanta penitentiary fourteen
years ago, was permitted to go home
to die by act of executive clemency.
Certificates were filed showing that
he was the victim of three incurable
diseases; that he could not live more
than a month II he remained in
prison, or more than six if free. We
know how President Taft agreed to
free Mr.. Morse and how Mr.. Morse
agreed to die in six months, but
failed to live up to his end Of the
contract"
While this argument was going on
and while the judge was making his
decision in favor Of the prosecution,
Charles w. Morse. whether paralytic,
or fake, but 20 years old. and un.
doubtedly a bsQken man, sat by her
bedside in his sisters home at Bath,

stances, but grimly illustrative of
life-we play the game hard while
we are young and strong only to
find much of it futile at the end.

BIZ Times Special

BIZ Times Special
| WASHINGTON, July 16.-The In
creasingly large number of women
who rush out after washing the
breakfast dishes to join men in the
great trek to daily labor in office and
factory are working because they
have to, not because it's fun or to
get pin money to buy luxuries.
1--WE are so tired Of hearing about
pin money" chorused those women
who keep tab on their fellow female
workers at the woman's bureau of
the Labor Department. That's not
the reason at all, except in a few
cases"
There are a few women who work
for fun" but a very few, and they
have nearly always been here.
Two Reasons
There are two reasons why more
and more women are working, &C
cording to Investigations over long
period of years by the bureau.
| One is that the standard Of living
has grown much higher. People are
demanding better living, which costs
more money. So mother and sister
are going to work. The other is
wrapped up in the industrial change,
the manufacture of so many things
outside that used to be made in the
home.
Women and girls contribute a
larger share of their earnings to
support Of the home than men and
boys.
Women workers include a larger
percentage under 25 years of age
than is found among male workers.
Two-fifths of working women are
under 25.i More than one girl In
every five working is between 20
into this age group.
Problem Studied
The census of 1920. the last fig
ures gathered, showed S,549,511
women ten years of age and over
who were gainfully employed. This
exodus from the home to the shop
has brought its problems, which the
Government is studying.
"a mans work is from sun to
sun, but a woman's work is never
DONE" is more true than ever, ac-
cording to experts of the Woman's
| bureau.
The woman has become a bread
winner INSTEAD of a bread-maker-
for the reason that bread is now
made in bakeries. There is the SYM
Dol of the great industrial shift.
Women used to wash at home. They
used to make all their own dresses.
Now they buy most of them ready
made.
So the scene Of activity has
changed. Women have followed
their trade, once conferred in the
home, to the great industrial ma
chine where it is now piled, either
literally. as workers in bakeries and
laundries, or f1guratively, as clerks
in the business offices of such estab-
lishments.
In Last Fifteen Years
This transfer is shown IN figures
compiled by the bureau. The type
of women's employment has shifted
in the last fifteen years from do
mestic and agricultural work to
work in offices and factories.
The higher standard of living,
which has grown from industrial
development and its fruits, is Turing
women into outside work. In
