We, the Women
BY RUTH MILLETT
E Staff Writer

A housewife complained because
the cleaning woman who came
once a week had announced al
increase in heI hourly wage.
What that housewife forgot i!
that the little folks who earn theil
meager living by doing laundry
cleaning, and yard work have NJ
lobby or union to get them an in
crease in wages to meet the higher
cost OF living.
When milk and pork chops 60 up
these little people have to ask more
for their work if they r to keeI
on eating. And they have to ask
it as individuals.
But that's the catch. When they
raise their prices as individuals
they find that they are resented.
The fact that Minnie is chargin..
more per hour for scrubbing thar
she did a year ago isn't accepted
by the housewife as just part Of
the MISUNDERSTANDING picture.
The housewife remembers what
she used to pay Minnie in the old
days. And now she thinks Minnie is
getting big ideas.
Next time you find yourself
feeling resentful because Minnie
charges more an hour for scrub
bling or Sadie charges more for
laundering curtains, stop and think
what Minnie and Sadie were pay
ing for a pound of pork chops OF
a quart of milk in those good old
days"

SCHOOLS TO AID
CANCER DRIVE

All school children in the county
will once again take part in the
raising of funds for the American
Cancer society's drive, now under
way in the city, under the aus
pices of North Carolina Sorosis.
With the hearty approval of J. W.
Grise, assistant superintendent of
county schools, the campaign for
funds in the schools will continue
for five days.
The schools last year cooperat-
ed intellectually with the cam
paign and helped greatly to go
well "ove- the top" They are be-
ing asked to make this
same splendid effort this
year. Cancer strikes children as
well as others. 1t is no respector
Of persons and so it is fitting that
they be conscious of this and help
fight this u Number / enemy.
There is no truer statement than
"a little child shall lead them
We are hoping that this
may again be proven and that the
schools will do much to help the
campaign go lover the top"
again. Every child who contributes
will be given a button.
Parents who are not contribut-
ing through other agencies r
asked to contribute through the
school and thus swell the amount
for the school.
