WOMAN'’S PAGE. The Woman Who Makes Good ¥ BY HELEN WOODWARD. Who started her career as a frightened typist and who became one of the highest paid business women in America. In a Strange City. * Perhaps you want to go to another clty, and the family wants you to stay at home. You may be right. The fam- | ily may be right. If conditions are un- | bearable at home, you will, naturally, s 1! take almost any i chance to get away. But if, as in most cases, things are 4 | merely dull and un- § | interesting, vy o u " { ought to know cer- tain things before b i youmake your jump. | You_should have ; y | several hundred = . | dollars before you gy Helen Woodward. go, so that you'll | have enough money t live on for two | or three months. You can't get a job | as quickly as you think. And it always costs more to live than you figured on | in advance. It will be a risk, of course, and you may make a failure. If you do you mustn't hesitate to come “back home | again. You will think that everybody | will look down on you as a failure, but | they will not. They will merely envy you the experience, and want to hear | the news of the strange city. | It takes a strong will and a fighting spirit t> go to New York, for instance, and make a successful living. You| must like obstacles. You must like op- | position Take a girl like Marian. She hated to go back home a failure. She was sick and lonely in a theatrical b. . house, and a queer looking actre: dcor eame in and helped her out. got well, found a job and made a huge success. But the kind actress was an accident, and the first was an accident, More typical is a girl like Eugenia A Sermon for Today Immortality of Love. “Love never faileth."—I Corinthians, xiii.g. At the foot of the white marble cross | which his wife placed upon the grave of Charles Kingsley are graven these words: “We have loved, we love, we shall love.” | ‘The love that lightens life acts in-| stinctively on the hypothesis of im-| mortality. Love's language is the lan-| guage of eternity, and she speaks no; ther language. | ‘When our dear ones have crossed the | river, we are somehow bound to them | by the cords of a deathless love. We do not cease to love them, and we can- not feel that they have ceased to love| us. We feel théir mysterious nearness. In one of George Macdonald’s ro- mances there is a young girl who was engaged to marry a young man who| was a professed unbeliever. But it| comes to pass that this girl s awakened | spiritually, that she comes to feel within | her coul the sense of immortality, and | ghe questions her love! “Tell me, how | long will you love me?” His assurance that he will love her “until death do us part” does not satisfy her. After dis- cussing the matter, she lets the young man go, because, she says, “It may be only a whim, but it is my whim to be\( loved as an.immortal woman.” | In the beautiful drama of “Ion” the instinet of immortality, so_eloquently | uttered by the death of the devoted| Greek, finds a deep response in every soul. When about to yield his young existence, a sacrifice to his fate, his be- | Joved Clemanthe asks if they shall meet1 again, to which he replies: “I asked that dreadful question of the hills that seemed eternal, of the clear streams that fiow forever, of the stars among | whose fields of azure my spirit has| walked. As I look upon thy lcving face | I feel that there is something in thy Jove that cannot wholly perish. We| shall meet again, Clemanthe.” | We not only feel that we are immor- | tal; we feel that there is something immortal about love. We love our de- arted dead more than we-loved them | BY REV. JOHN R. GUNN. t | She came from a small city where she had a good job, was well paid, and lived in a pleasant home. She had always worn good clothes and she didn't like being uncomfortable. She got letters of introduction from the heads of: her office at home and went to New York in great excitement. She got jcbs, indeed, she got several, through the letters. But she found that they were just as gull as those she had lefi behind at home. And it cost her more to live. But she had a definite cbject. She wanted to get into the bond business. At the present writing she has an interesting job as a stenographer and she is having a good time. She is meeting some interesting people she wanted to meet. But she’s not nearly so comfortable as she was at home. She is not yet in the bond business. But I think she will be, because her mind is set on it. She is of a highly adventurous dis- position. She likes risk. She's good- looking and she knows that back home they will always be glad to see her. And she loves standing on her own feet in the strange city so much that she is willing to do withsut a lot of things in order to stay there. f you can do something that's in demand in another city, if you are un- happy and restless at home, if you have several hundred dollars to take with you, and if you are over 20 years old, then you can go. That kind of gigl can safely go to another city. f you are easily frightened or if you are weak-willed, stay at home. (Copyright. 1931.) DAILY DIET RECIPE SPINACH CABBAGE.

In the 16-year sizo | | Mansion. | the White | House. A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK BY HERBERT PLUMMER. IF you've ever been inside the White House, then doubtless you have seen that smiling, gray-haired, affable per- son named “Ike” Hoover. His office is on the main floor directly to the right of the entrance. But you are likely to encounter “Ike” Hoover any place in the mansion. “Ike” is short for Irwin H., though few people know that. For more than 40 years — his term of service at the White House—he has been known to practically every one from Presi- dents down as “Ike” Hoover. Hoover's official title is head usher ffu of the Executive i\ But his duties are so inti- mate and varied that he is actually House major domo. He has served under nine Presi- dents at the White It was in 1891 when, as a young electrician, he was sent to the | White Houze to re- pair the newly installed electric lights which were annoying President Harri- son. He repaired the lights, but President Harrison kept him atound to see that they would continue to function prop- erly. The story is told that the Presi- dent was skeptical about the lights, and to push the buttons because he was afraid the current might run up his arm instead of to the lights. President McKinley “brought him | upstairs,” as they say at the White House, and made him an usher. Presi- dent Wilson took him to Paris during the peace conference. He was quare tered at Buckingham Palace in Lon- | don and ¢¢ the Quirinal in Rome. | _ Things W e changed greatly at the | White House since the night young | Hoover went there to fix the lights. At that time there were fewer than a half dozen employes at the mansion. Now | there are more than 60. | Hoover has played his part in thi | modernization program. He installed tea first electric doorbell. He also | rigged up for President Harrison a sys- | tem of bells in the Executive Offices, the first time a President ever used this time and labor saving device. Curfously enough, there was an ele- vator at the White House before elec- tric lights and bells. A hydraulic lift had been installed prior to Hoover's ar- rival. It was not until the Roosevelt administration that it was replaced | with an electric one. Hoover could tell some interesting storles about the things and persons | he has known so intimately and for so | long if he would. But that's one thing | he probably never will do. He has re- | peatedly declined suggestions that he | write his memoirs. | His only comment on the years he | bas spent at the White House is: ! “I had to wait a long time before I | that he induced Hoover to hang around got a President of my own name.” OUR CHILDREN BY ANGELO PATRI. | | [ | U_ | 3 yards of 39-inch material with % yard of 32-inch contrasting is sufficient.

All over the clean tablecloth. How many times am I to tell you not to play with your spoon? Your hands are going to be slapped well, young man. And into your crib you go. That_was the beginning of a long day. Once released from the prison- crib the baby rolled about on his pad on the floor. He had a rattle in his hand. He rolled himself over to the fish bowl, pulled himself up holding by the brim, fell in the wreck and cut his lip with the edge of the rattle, still clutched in his hand. “Goodness. If you're not a child possessed I never saw one. You've been asking for a spanking all morning. Now you're going. to get it. for you, young man. Now you stay there. Howl just as much as you like. What in the world I'm to do with such a child— “O it's you, grampa. He's howling because I spanked him. You can see what he did. No. He can't go out. He's going to learn that I mean what I say. He's without exception the most throygh-going child I ever saw. “Maybe I was. Maybe you were too patient with me. No. He has to stay right where he is. Sorry. I know he likes to gp with you, but he isn't going today.” At lunch time the baby was tired and cross. He threw his bread on the floor. Into your crib | | then. O, you bad child.

" All day long he stayed close to the child, reading his paper while he played, talking to him when that seemed to be what the child vanted; keeping quiet when that was indicated. Once when Sonny started to cress the road Grampa laid down his paper and said, “No, no, Stay this side with me. I'm afraid of the cars Sonny stood on his step, eons | the matter an instant, smiled and | turned back. “All right Gramps. I'll | stay with you. I'm afrald of the cars.” | When you have to punish a child | more than once in a long time it would | be well to stop ask yourself why. ‘Which of you is wrong?
