hopeful surge. 1t was useless to
try--impossible to make friends
In Chicago. Discouraged, she
alighted at the Dearborn station
and made her way to Mrs.
Pringle's dark, ugly, little shop.
On Dearborn street, or on Michi-
gan boulevard, AIMS appearance
would have given the impression
Of well groomed, well tailored
smartness, almost richness. If she
explained that the soft wool of her
dress had been found on rem
nant table in basement bargain
sale, that the findings had come
from the 10-cent store, that her
own hands had fashioned the gar
ment-in short that the entire en-
semble had cost less than S5--one
would scarcely credit the story.
AIMS shoes were purchased in
a little alley shop off Randolph.
They were rebuilt shoes Of good
make. Her hats were made from
odds and ends, some new, some
discarded by Mrs. Pringle. Gloves
and hose, especially hose, cut into
AIMS budget with deadly persist
ence. She was aghast to learn,
through her budget, that she spent
$50 year for hose.
She argued that her hair did not
require the attention OF beauty
operators, that she carried her
lunch, four graham crackers and
an apple, to the shop, that her
teeth almost never needed filling
and continued to buy the fragile
things. II she had but known 1t,
the appearance OF her lovely legs
paid huge dividends on the invest
ment
To reach the shop, Ann went
through a dingy foyer and up TO
the sixth floor in a changing ele-
vator. She greeted Mrs. Pringle,
scrawny, work-worn woman
with untidy hair, and settled her
self to work.
Sewing q feather to a moss
green hat, she asked, win II 20
on like this forever. Mrs. Pringle ?
Won't I ever meet people and
make friends"
Its hard TO get acquainted,
Ann" her employer answered.
Its more than ever hard when
you're stuck in q shop like this.
Now If you worked In the dime
store - those girls have good
times"
Eyes, I know, but I like this
work. I was delighted when you
gave me the JOB. I had hoped 10
work up"
I'D pay you more II I could
you know that. Fifteen dollars
Isn't much, a living, that's all
Fifteen a week." Ann repeated
absently. There are thousands Of
girls. and men. too. who never
make more than SIS a week. AZ
first I thought 1t was a stepping
stone TO better things, but I've
learned differently. The SIS Job

know one woman who has been
married eighteen years. Her hus-
band Is kind and considerate (be-
cause she rated that treatment)
but like other human beings he has
his faults. He loves to gamble and
go out on parties. but outside of
telling him frankly now and then
that she thinks he is being unfair.
she never thinks of nagging him,
and what is more important, she
never would stoop to talking about
him to outsiders or friends or rela-
tives. She is loyal in the extreme
and because she is this kind OF a
woman, she has a man who adores
her-a man who, despite the little
bit of partying he does, would
never consider being unfaithful to
the square shooting" girl he mar
ried.
I know another wife who went
10 work in a millinery shop, who
spent the first years of her mar
ried life teaching a country school
and who put up with many I'M
pleasantries from some of her
husbands relatives,-all this be-
cause she loved him and wanted

to help pay his way through medi-
cal school. He's a successful ply
stefan now and thanks his wife for
his success. because she was too
busy helping him TO take time out
for complaining and nagging.
II we look about US. every day
We can see women who are just
as tolerant, loyal and broad-mind-
ed as their husbands ever thought
of being. And II we look about US,
we can detect the selfish males
who rule their homes with iron
hands, because they take advan-
tage OF some woman's good nature
and fine disposition.
No, women are not the worst
complainers and naggers In the
world. The odds seem pretty even
ly divided-for both men and wom-
en- of certain types can qualify for
a top spot in the nagger's seat.

E. M. S.-Why does my husband
run around so much. I sit around
at home night after night and I am
just about to my end. If he doesn't
make a change then 1 will. Should
I leave town?
Ans: No, you shouldn't leave the
city, but y0u should come to an
understanding about the way he's
acting. If he doesn't stop his run
ming around put him out and get
him out of your life. You are much
too young to be worrying yourself
to death about someone who ap~
parently doesn't care.
l.. l.. P.-Recently I've become very
miserable and worried. I've been
contemplating moving away from
my mothers. Give me the best adj
vice whereby l will be the happiest.
Ans: Living with your mother has
its ADVANTAGES and disadvantages.
Reason them all out before you
leave. You don't have the liberty
to come and go as you please. but
you do have comfortable home
and nothing to worry about.
Whether il is best for you or not.

PHILADELPHIA-(ANP) - Be
cause certain clauses in the Ma
tional Defense Act make possible
subtle. if not purposeful, evasion of
the Negro worker in the Defense
Program, colored Americans this
week were warned by an autnOrlta-
tive source to be alert and prepare
themselves to fit III the new areas
of labor which will be opened up
with initiation of the plan.
A "Selective choosing" clause in
the Act may result in discrimina-
ton to certain classes, groups or
races, an official release from the
Division of Negro Research and
Planning of the Pennsylvania De-
partment of Labor and Industry
declares.
All employed workers should reg
ister Immediately at local State
Employment Services and those
who have registered should renew
their cards with the latest employ
ment activity, the release con-
tinues. Unemployed, qualified
school teachers, who are eligible
for teaching positions in vocational
trades, can avail themselves of the
opportunity for employment by
application to State and local
boards of Vocational training.
In the educational field, the re-
lease points out, the discretionary
power delegated to local school Of
f1cials to determine employability
of an individual" may pave the
wav for further discrimination.
That the Negro workman must
prove his ability, his willingness
his need and his skill in order that
the basic requirements to full par
tscipation in this mammoth pro-
gram will be met by him, is stress
ed by the release which further
advises gaining full knowledge OF
all aspects of the National De
fense Program"
