tional Business w e n s
Week on October 8, 1860. Mrs.

ance of women in the world
today. She brought out three
distinct phases in the lives OF
women, these being, a wife,
a mother, and a business Wo-
man. that should be taken
seriously and actually con-
sidered as a career. Women
all women-young and old and
more mature must accept
their role in the world today
as they number more than a
third of the work force in our
country.

to be alert and to take part
in civic affairs. In encourag-
ing participation in puphc
affairs she talked about dlf-
defent phases of government

for opening the chest and

They have tried it on more

years. In 70 per cent of cases
attempted, patients were re-

July S (AP). - A Petersburg
mechanic says a fouled pro-
peller and rough water slowed
down his boats 250-mile voy-

Guard boat guided the 25-foot
cabin cruiser to port. Until
the plane circled overhead,
