WE
the Women
BY RUTH MILLETT

The news item told little story
about travelling salesman's vile
who took over his job when he went
into the army. At the end of the
first week the wife's sales were
higher than were her husbands the
last week he held the job.
There could have been several
reasons for that. Maybe being new
at the Job and determined to carry
on for her husband. the wife
worked unusually hard-perhaps a
little harder than she will after she
has held the job as long as her hus-
band had it.
Maybe the customers were proud
of the woman who had tackled her
husbands job when he went into
the army and showed their pride
by giving her extra large orders.
Or, maybe the wife just struck
GOOD week by chance. and her hus-
band would have done as well or
better that week if he had been on
the route
Whatever the reason for the wlte'S
out-doing her husband at his own
iob--there's a point in 1t for other
wives who take over their husbands

Last fan while I was watching
football game good-sized flock OF
geese came flying over the field.
There probably were 40 or so birds
in the flock and they formed Z huge
"v'' in the sky.
Catching sight of the ~" the big
home coming cgrowd set up cheer.
The ~" seemed sign OF victory.
Whether the crowd was thinking
mainly Of winning the war or win
ming the game it is hard 10 say.
Long before this war was started
wild geese flew In ~" formation. It
Is q custom of the goose world. An
old gander commonly leads the Aock,
taking his place at the point Of
the "V."
just when or why that formation
was adopted by these birds is not
known. We may note, however, that
men with guns find 1t harder to
bring down geese on the wing than
II they new one straight behind an
other or punched together.
The speed of geese Is another help
to save them from hunters. Often
they fly at q rate of more than q
mile minute.
On this continent the Canada
goose Is the most common Of the
wild geese. 1t nests in many parts of
Canada. as far north as the valley of
the Yukon River. 1t also nests In
some OF the cooler parts OF the
United States.
The nest almost always is placed
on the ground, but cases are known
where Canada geese have nested in
trees. These birds choose nesting
sites which are out of the way and
hard for hunters to find.
One day a flock of geese flew over
the New York zoo. They were on
their way to the South to spend the
winter.
In that zoo were number Of tame
geese which were enjoying meal of
cracked corn. Nine OF the wild
geese came down to join the tame.
ones. In the sight of a keeper they
took their share of the corn.
With the help of more corn, the
keeper coaxed seven Of the wild
geese inside a wire cage. Very
shortly their wings were clipped
and they became regular members
OF the flock at the zoo.
The other two wild geese could not
be coaxed into the cage, but stayed
at the park through the winter,
taking food which was tossed to
them. In the spring these two new
northward and were not seen again.
