Strawberry Plants

Be sure strawberry plants are set
30 that only half Of the crown Is IN
the soil. Deeper planting will smoth-
er the plant, while shallower plant
Ing will permit it to dry out. Straw
berries planted In hills should be .
to Is inches apart In each direction,
and no runner plants should be al
lowed to start. For a matted row,
set plants about two feet apart In
rows and allow all runners to de-
velop. Early runners are the most
productive. Pick all blossoms on
newly set strawberry rlants.

American women, celebrating
the twentieth anniversary os
National Business Women's
Week, can look back on a Pc
riod which contained their
greatest business, professional
and political advance. 1t also
contained the hottest and most
varied criticism-especially of
"Mom"-that the women of
this country ever received.
National Business WoMmen's
Week is sponsored by the Nat
ional Federation of Business and
professional Women's clubs,
most of whose 1901 mem
bers have built their careers in
the period since World War |.
In that period the United States
women's labor force virtually
doubled - from approximately
$500, 900 in 1920 to II 100000
in early August, 1947. OF these,
1850, 900 were working and
100000 looking for jobs.
Today women constitute al
most 20 percent of those at work
in the United States and are the
great majority of workers in a
number of occupations. They
form SO percent of the s~ecreta-
ries and typists, 80 percent of
the medical laboratory techni-
clans, SO percent of the profess
sional nurses, So percent of the
bookkeepers, accountants and
cashiers, AZ percent of the store
clerks, "a percent of the tele-
phone operators, n percent of
the laundry operatives, AZ per-
cent of the operatives in cotton
manufacture, SO percent OF the
dressmakers and seamstresses
outside factories, sc percent of
the operatives in knit goods and
80 percent of the boarding house
keepers.
Computations or the numbers
of women in the teaching ranks
vary from rs to IS percent, but
they are unquestionably in a
big majority. In the fields of
higher education women now
serve as president of "a colleges
(ll percent of the college and
university total, and as presi-
dents of Sc junior colleges (13
percent). In 1939-40, 429 Tor
10 percent of the total, received
doctorateS.
Some standouts climbed to
stellar positions as the heads of
corporations, department stores
and other fields of commerce,
while thousands more served
as their able department heads

Future Homemokers

On Wednesday, Oct. %, the
Senior Future Home-Makers club

held its annual election of Of
ficerS.
This year. the procedure was
different from that of last year as
from each home-making class a
girl was elected to serve on the
nominating committee.
This committee chose girls that
it thought would prove good and
capable officers and their names
were brought before the club at
the last meeting.
The officers are Mary O'Macy,
president; Marlene Byrd, vice
president; Mildred Garlotte, sec
rotary; Billine 10 Kyle, treasurer;
Peggy Harris, reporter; Lula Mae
Guillotte, song leader; Ernestine

Women Today Constitute 29 Percent
OF Those AT Work In United States

and aids. Other thousands did
outstanding and valuable work
in the fields of social welfare,
home economics, nutrition, Ii.
braries and in such medical
occupations as that of occupa-
tional therapists and x-ray tech
nicians. In journalism, art and
music women also made their
mark.
In the field of politics and
government, which women en-
tered after World War l, they
were extensively criticized for
not having accomplished more
in their first 81 years of fran
chise rights. Today there are
onll seven women in the House
of Representatives and none in
the Senate-a much smaller
percentage than that in the
British and French parliaments.
Nevertheless women have been
increasingly active in the lower
and intermediate rungs of the
political party ladder. In the
fall of l947 there are 234 wom-
en- in the state legislatures and
several have served in revision
of state constitutions.
They are represented in al
most every branch of the judi
ciary, serving a judges in the
u. S. Tax SQUIRT, P. S. Customs
Court, U. S. District Court of
Appeals and as municipal judg-
es, probate judges, domestic re-
lations and juvenile court
judges. Many have served long
terms.
In many professions, however,
the ranks of women still are
very small, though they have
made a creditable beginning.
The last census showed that
women constitute two percent
of the country's lawyers, five
percent of the doctors, little
over two percent of the archi-
tects and a small percentage of
those working in scientific
fields. However, current col
lege enrollments indicate that
the next census may reveal a
sizeable increase in those fig
ureS.
Many factors contributed to
American Women's working ad-
vance in the past three decades,
but one of the most outstanding
was an increasing necessity for
women to earn their own living
due to a combination of social
and economic factors. The Wo-
mems Bureau of the U. S. Dept.
of Labor, after interviewing
more than $4,000 women en-
ployed in 1944-45 in ten far
congested areas located through
out the country, found that "a
percent of those who wanted to
work after the war had to sup
port themselves and sometimes
others. In 1910, married women
constituted more than 33 per-
cent of the female labor force
and women were the heads of
Is percent of the country's fam
lilies. Many experts expect the
1850 census to reveal a marked
increase in these figures.
