EOMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG
THE WOMEN, BY ONE
OF THEM.

It is exceedingly satisfactory to find
that so large a number of women, who
were formerly dependent on. what
might almost be termed the charity of
their friends. and relations, are now
doing good work, but there still remain
a very large proportion who seek em~
ployment which they cannot obtain,
having no technical knowledge of any
one subject in particular.

Theease of unemployed and destitute
women'who seek out those they think
can aid them in their desire to earn
their owfi living and offer to take any
dmploymentis too, common; the answer
Shag-generally receive is, “It is useless
sayinggthat you Will do anything;what
werequire to know before we can help
sendswhaucan you do?” -

In the report ofthe Society for, Pro-
,fipOtiflgthe Employment of Women it is,
stated that the eaSe' ’of gentlewomen
whoyhave reached middle-age without
any: experience, of life beyond that
gainedxi-E' 'th'eir'own homes is most
discressing.

These ladies, suddenly reduced,i in

' Eisenhower byrcause's beyond their
“5’ “fl! eddtgol, :Suclf‘as'the‘death 'Of Rela-
.1. give, Iailppe in business of fithose, on
.xfio sum ché‘yg’were i'a'epgndent,qe’_tg,,; are '

willing to undertake almost anywoc-

. enpaufon, but they .have not,been_._train-

ed.and really3 know nothing beyond the
management of a home, and suitable

;' meupations can be found for very: few.

The-committee state that they, in.
conjunction with Others interested in
woman’s work, have done their utmost
tofind openings for these cases, but
with very little success, for employers
want the services of young, and active
women and will seldom engage any-
one over 40, however capable she may

. .ng

Even in the clerical work of book-
keeping training is necessary, and a
good knowledge Of shorthand and type-
writinggis now generally regarded as a
meoessagy qualification for a secretary
enrhoolmgeeping clerk. ' '

Even fer younger girls the market is
utterly over-stocked with those who
mt’untrained or only partially trained,
1501: it is stated by the committee of
this society that many uneducated girls
seem to think that all that is necessary
isto master the difficulties of short-
hand,- and the committee regret to
state that they but seldom have it in
their power to help those who have

not received further training of some ‘

At the present time, in the severe
struggle for existence, dependent in
great part on the vast and unpreced-
ented increase of population, it_ should
be regarded as the imperative duty of
alimersons in medium circumstances to
give their daughters training in some
Lawsuit which will enable them to ob-
tain their own living.

It should be borne in mind 'by par-
ants and guardians that ' a very. coné
adorable portion of the single . women
now living will not be married. In the
severe struggle of life there are many
men now who will not burden them-
selves with the responsibilities and
cares of a family. They consider,
rightly or wrongly, that they have not
themeans of so doing. ‘

Feminine Chat.

It is strange but true that the weakest
:dzaracters are the most lovable.

The ice man always comes earlier on
those mornings when the thermometer
isloitering near the zero mark.

It is always best to avoid controversy
saith two .kinds of people—those who

mount-understand you and those who

will not.

Why is it that, the man who wears

white duck trousers to the picnic in

aims the one to sit upon the blacks

hum ric-

. kitchen range and boiler.

You may love a man to death, but
when he begins to act as though all
you were made for was to wait upon his
actions then efi‘ection is bound to pal].

AS soon as you'begin to grow a bit
slender the kind woman’s world that
calls you friend decides that you are
grieving to death-over some disappoint-
ment in love. '

Have you noticed the restaurant
chicken sandwich lately?——you need
not suspect the butter, but the chicken
“suggests grave doubts. Is it a pullet or
push it, we Wonder? -

One never realizes what a changeable
world this is until we meet someone we
once thought constituted the universe
and find that there isn’t'even one more
heart throb over the encounter.

The woman who is having her fur
coat made into a thing of beauty is try-
ing to look as though she didn’t care
that she only has two shirt waists and
one duck skirt to carry her through the
summer. :: ,

When you live in the ‘country and
letters mean the daily sending to the
post office for them‘ it always happens

on which the letter you are looking for
is sure to arrive. .

It is a silly man and always a very
young one who would take all a woman’s
adoration for granted. If he is wise
and world-seasoned he will thank the
gods for the good provided him and
nourish rather than despise it.

It’s a curious thing that when a wo-
man fibs to you about some little unim-
portant, yet impressive thing, such as
her retinue of servants, or the number
of her tailor-'mades, and so forth—you
knowing all the time that it isa fib—
you don’t feel half so much ashamed
for her fibbing as flattered that she
should think it worth while to fib about
such a thing to you. ‘ ‘
