WOMAN’S PAGE . CAREERS FOR WOMEN The Jeweler BY MARGARET ROGERS. The principal qualification for a suc- cesstul jeweler is ability to design artistically. To be a good designer one must understand the work from a craftsman’s point of view and be able' to execute the work and have a knowledge of all the details; other- ‘wise, the designs are apt to be im- practical, and when the worker tries to adapt them to the goldsmith’s art they lose much of the original charm. Another qualification must be natural talent. One can acquire skill, but the artistic side_must be borne in one. Unless one has ability and love of this kind of work, I doubt if it would be a successful field. If one has decided artistic ability and once understands the limitations ected with the actual construc- V /P21 110 P L PO 2 00 deer. 2 e Heather-mixed Wool LTI/ 110000 L1120 000000 A with them, so skillfully have and all shades.

Also, there is an elementary course in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, but I think it would be necessary to continue work under some jeweler, | th either as an apprentice or by paying }(ltl)'r" the privilege of studying under (Copyright, 1921.)

Some of the most clever of interior decorators often do just that They realize that the room that does not express the individuality and taste of the owner is not long & success. So they try to reflect the personality and taste of the owner in the decoration. After all, as they will tell you, many more people have good taste and good ideas in furnishing than you would imagine. The trouble is that ey are afraid to carry out this taste that is within them.

Down on the snow-covered Green Meadows ran Reddy Fox. He ran swiftly. The snow. was well packed and he didn't break through. This made easy running. Reddy was in & greut hurry. He had just watched Whitey the Snowy Owl from the Far North boldly steal a fat hen from Farmer Brown’s henyard and fly away with it. Whitey had flown only far enough to feel quite safe, then had dropped down to the snow to eat that fat hen. You see, he was 8o hungry that he couldn’t wait to go any fur- ther. . As he ran Reddy kept his eyes fix- ed on Whitey. He saw that Whitey wasn’t so greedy that he was for- getful of possible danger. Every haif minute or so he would straighten up and turn his round head this way and turn it that way to make sure that all wag well. Then he would resume eating. Reddy's mouth watered as he ran. He didn’t know just what he was going to do when he got there, but he hoped to get a share of that fat hen. It was & big hen, a fat hen. Perhaps it was more tham Whitey could eat at one meal, and he would be generous enough to give part to & poor hungry Fox. If he wouldn't be generous, perhaps there would be some way to take a share away from him. The one thing that worried Reddy was the fear that Whitey would see him coming and fly away with what remained of that fat hen. Every time Whitey straightened up for a look around, Reddy stopped and stood perfectly still. He ‘“froze,” as Peter Rabbit had done when he firat saw Whitey. The instant Whitey be- gan eating again Reddy started on as fast as possible. And so it was that Reddy almost reached Whitey before the latter saw him. The snow was covered with feathers, and there Was not mueh of that fat hen left. But there was a little, and the sight of that little made Reddy reckless. “I'll have that if. 1 have to fight for it,” muttered Reddy. Whitey had discoverd him now and faced about. His yellow eyes blazed. There was no trace of fear in them It was plain that he didn’t intend to fly away and leave what remained of that fat hen. He hissed angrily, and he snapped his bill in 8 way that gave Reddy a most uncomfortable feeling. Now, Reddy is crafty. He had no intention of fighting if he could help it. “Good morning, stranger,” said he, politely, grinning &s only Reddy can grin, “I see you have good eating this morning. You are lucky to have such a fine meal these hard times. If you have more than you want, 1 bex you to take pity on a poor starving Fox, who has been most unlucky in his_hunting:" “Run on and catch your own dinner; there’s nothing for you here,” hissed Whitey, snapping his bill more than GOOD MORNING STRANGER,” SAID HE POLITELY, GRINNING AS ONLY REDDY CAN GRIN. It popped into Reddy’s head that what was left of that fat hen wouldn't amount t6 much in the way of a meal, but- that Whitey himsel? would m: ia very good méal. He looked big and |plump. What Reddy didn’t know was that Whitey's coat was so very thick |that it made him appear very much ibigger than he really was. Reddy began to run in circles around Whitey. He meant to make Whitey keep turning until he was dizzy or | confused. But Whitey didn’t turn his ibody at ajl. Only his head turned. Those flerce yellow eyes would fol- low Reddy around until Whitey was |looking straight behind him. Then {so quickly that Reddy could hardly see the motion, that head would snap around the other way and continue to keep those eyes fixed on Reddy. At last Reddy lost patience. Whitey didn’t look so dangerous. Watching { his chance, Reddy sprang. He intend- ed to land on Whitey's back. He didn’t. No, sir, he didn’t. He landed |on eight stout curved claws, and each lone of them tore his coat. At the same time stout wings pounded him, as’'he never had been pounded before, and that hooked bill tore his face. You see, Whitey had thrown himself jon his back, and with claws, wings and bill all busy at the same time, he gave Reddy no chance to reach him with his sharp teeth. In half a min- ute Reddy’s whole desire was to get way. There was no fight left in him. (Copyright, ‘1921, by T. W. Burgess.) To Make Fragrant Tea.
