THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: MAY 9 1909 Activities and Views of Progressive Women in Various Walks of Life Danish Women in Offiee. ITY fathers are common the wotld over, but clty mothers Are as rare as angels' visits. Donmark enjoys the proud eminence of opening the public service to women, and Copen- hagen takes the laurels for city mothers, having a group of seven chosen Wt the Tosent municipal election. On the day they were inducted Into office a correspondent writes, “the public gallery was filled with women visibly delighted at the triumph of their cause. No little curlosity had been felt as to how the sexes would meet in the councll chamber, but the result exceeded tho most optimistic expectations. “Gallantly the gray bearded councillors offered the new members their arms and courteously copducted them to their seats. The ladles all fooked solemn and somewhat neryous. Most of them wore black, except the new soclalists member, Miss Crone, a compositor, who was resplendent in & white blouse ard a hat with scarlet trim- mings. “Souncillor Borgbjaerg opened the pro- ceedings with a speech In which he paid homage to the wternal feminine in politics. He contended that woman suffrage, far from putting civilization back fifty years, as pessimists believed, would powertully serve o fosler humanity and charitable- ness which had maternal affection for its original souree. “Business over, the city fathers and mothers gathered about the coffe table in the big dining hall for an Informal chat, when matterns apparently progressed famously, for one of the new women memmbers was heard to remark that she never thought they would have bhad such A pleasant party.” Is Mother ay Neededl We are told that May 9 iy to be cele- brated as “Mothers' day,” says the Chicago Inter-Ocean. The white carnation Is to be the emblem, and all mothers' sons and Aalghters are urged to wear it. Several churches have arranged for special serv- fces. On the preceding Friday appropri- ate exercises will be held In several schools. Wo respect the sentiment that gave birth to the idea of an official “‘Mothers' day,” but we regret the lack of taste that it reflects. There are some sentiments— Intimate, tender, dellcate sentiments—that do not lend themselves to such public cele- bration. They are all the stronger for not being proclaimed from the house tope. ‘They are the nobler for being freed from the mawkishness and formality that pub- lctty encourage Fancy this dellcate, deep, abiding senti- ment of respect for motherhood personitied In mortal shape—if that were possible. Would It go up or down the highways and byways proclaiming Its pecullar excel- lence? Would it delight In acclamanations and offielal programs? Or would it rather be the qulet, beautiful companion of men and women In thelr private lives, speak- ing softly, stirring depths of fecling by its own intensity, gentle and unobstrusive, yet constant, persistent and persuasive? There are some writers who do not understand the force of reticence. There @re some actors who do not realise the exoellence of restraint. There are some women who do not percelve the charm which reserve adds to women. There are musicians who de not appreci- ate any musical value except nolse. nd there are not anly some but thousands of people who do not seem able in this matter of émotherhood to catch the reverence of privacy, the devotion of secrecy, the vast respect of silence; the deep sentiment be- hind the persistent refusal of the average man to make public proclamation of love for his mother. Why profanc the noble modesty of such an affection by placing it on exhibition, by advertising it in the market place? Many thngs remain which lend them- selves to official celebration; there need never be a lack of subject or excuse. But untl our regard for womankind has eunk to the level of classic antiquity, which esteemed the mother malnly as the official bearer of the man-child—in other words, until We have the officlal mother—let us deprecate the officlal celebration. We may safely leave the love of mother to the profound instincts of the human race, to the smphasis of religion, to the gratitude of the poet, who is able to com- press the meaning and exclude the bad taste of & thousand officlal celebrations In lines Mike this: If 1 were hanged on the highest hill, Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine! 1 ‘I}nnw whose love would follow me still, other o' mine, O mother o' mine! It 1 were drowned In the deepest ses Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine! 1 know whose tears would come down to me, Mother o' ming, O mother o' mine!

One line of work which Wwomen have precently taken up I8 accountirg There arc sald to be about twenty-five women engaged in this work in the United States. They have come into this field within the Jast two or three years and have met with unexpected success. It is hard work, but it is far more re- taunerative. according to a writer in the Buokkeeper, than any other of the profes- sfons In which women have heretofore en- gaged. A director in a leading commereial schovl of New York says: “I know of two women In well known . To find a good dressmaker from the very highest gradeof fashionable makers of gowns to the sewing girl who will come to your home—look under the ‘‘Dressmakers” heading on the want ad page. Bverybody reads the t-ads. It's profitable. It's interesting. So the wise put forth their business propositions there-—they turn into money that which they can no long- er use—they pick up at a bargein that with which the other man will gladly part. They are cheap and they certainly do the business, concerns who have mapped out and put Intn operation a complete new system of financial methods for thelr employes and who have even been Intrusted with big funds for profitable investment and whose advice has been followed in many other im- portant business undertakingh. The num- ber of such women who have proved their ability and liking for this responsible and remunerative work Is steadily growing. It offers a spiendid field for the woman who s not loath to accept responsibilities and who has a liking for the hard work it entails and who Is ambitious.” Nearly all the commercial schools show a steady Increase in the number of women students over previous years. One of them reports that four-fifths of its students in the 1egular business course this year, which includes stenography, commercial law, banking, English und kindred subjects, are women. In the bookkeeplog el there are about s many women as men. A very large proportion of these women, who appear to have marked out a business carver, are college bred, and many others are high school graduates. One reason given for this tendency {s the overcrowding of such protessions as teaching. After College, What? What to do next! It is a big problem, fsn't It? And to the girl on the eve of graduation, says the Delinator, it is a problem that assumes appalling propor- tions Yet really, if we look it stralght in the face, It sn't such an awful question, after all. By we, I mean girls of average Intelligence—not genluses seeking careers, but girls who either by cholce or neces- sity decide to earn thelr bwn living in some way. It 1s ignorance of the requirements and of the advantages and disadvantages eon- nected with the various phases of profes- slonal, business and home life that seems to be the cornerstone of perplexity and the cause of faflure In many cases. You must take time to study the different occupa- tions and thus decide for which you are best adapted. Here i a chance for the college-trained girl to show her apprecia- tion of the merits of thorough investign- tion, not mistaking inclination for ability by persuadng herself that what she likes 1o do is indentical with what she can do. The sooner the artist by cholce realizes that she 1s a housekeeper by ability, the better it will be for pride and pocketbook. The first thing, then, for the college girl in choosing an occupation, Is to find out what she can't do; then, by eliminative process, to decide for what line of work she is best fitted, considering temeprament, training, home conditions and opportunity in general. privi- dag Should a Man Propose Twice? When 4 man has asked a woman to marry him and has been refused, the ques- tion whether he shall ask her again is one which only he himself can answer. In the first place, says a writer in the St. Louls Globe-Demoerat, it Is of the ut- most importance that he should be certain ©of his own wishes in the matter; whether he truly is in love, or merely swept along by the wind of a passing fancy; whother the woman who has said ‘no” sirable In his eyes that he cannot be happy Nor is this phase of the question altogether easy to decide off- hand. Men, as well as women, often mis- take a passing fancy for a deep and ablding love, and later pn find that their affection, being without root, withers away Every woman by whom a man is strongly attracted is, for the moment, to him the “one and only” in all the world, but time passes, the siide In the magic lantern of his heart s filled with another image, then another, and as he Is equally sure that each ia turn is loved with the one love of his life. Constancy, whefe it serves no £00d purpose, ceases to be & virtue, and hecomes a mistortune, it not a vice 8o far as is publicly known, no statistics have yet been compiled upon the subject, but observation and evidence go to prove that the average man marries somewhero about the fifth or sixth girl with whom he falls in love. There have been four or five young women, each of whom for a longer or shorter perlod he has regarded s the paragon of her sex, but he has al- ready got over his Infatuation and has mar- ried another, and probably congratulates himself upon the fact that he has done so. It would be most unfortunate for him and for his wie if he had not. The manner of the refusal should welgh in the reception thereof. Any man with his fair share of common sense ought Lo know whether he is snubbed or the con- trary; whether his suit is peremptorily de- clined or merely tentatively set aside. Another thing which the wooer should take into consideration Is that women from their youth up are taught to repress their feelings, and often are stiff and cold be- cause pf the effort at repression. Almost all women are more or less nervous, and mirth, which is hysterical rather than merry, is often resented as ridicule by a sensitive wooer. An attack of the kind may dash the cup of happiness from a woman's lips and Incense her suiter past forgiveness. An involuntary smile will be taken for heartlessness by the man who is desperately In earnest. A humorous word will be an insult, a jest a proof of scorn. No man can bear to be laughed at, and his vanity it not his heart will recelve a wound which is not easily to be healed. It is & pity, but women sometimes lose the men whom they love by a lack of self- control which is misconstrued into ridicule, unless he gets her. i Sayings of Mrs. Solomon. In a translation of the Sayings of Mrs. Solomon, being the alleged confessions of the 700th wife, Helen Rowland rakes the foibles of the present day in this style: How long, oh, daughter, shall the high priests m the pulpits continue to rave and to cry out concerning “The ideal woman?" For every man knoweth that she is the one he did not marry. But I say unto thee, “What is the ideal man?' And every woman shall make an- swer differently! For she that is wedded unto an Adonis shall declare, “He Is like unto Caliban, which hath crooked legs and embonpoint and Is 8o unattractive that no other woman will look at him.” But she that hath married a Caliban will reply sadly, “Nay, he 1s a thing of beauty whom thou ca the gas.’ Ehe whose spouse cometh home always by a circultous route shall cry, “He is temperance lectirer!" yet the wife of &oody-goody shall retort, “Na he Is Jolly good fellow ®who sometimes seeth Joke and taketh his wife unio the theater occasionally.” Yea, she whose husband buyeth her bon- bons and sifk stockings with the rent money shall declare, “He s & miser.” Yet the wife of a penurious man shail vow, “He 18 one who looketh not over the house- hold accounts to see that an ounce of sugar and three tea leaves have not been mis- used.” But an unmarried woman shall reply, “He is llke unts the man whom I am going to marry, but have not yet got- ten." Yet, 1 say unto thes, he is a dead hus- band, which hath left theo “Mrs." on thy name and a good Income with which to buy becoming moufning For is not the most attractive jelly al- ways that upon the top shelf, and the most sttractive girl the one across the street and the biggest fish the one which swam away, and the only perfect wife the other man's wite? Go fo! Question me not concerning why & woman marryeth the sort of man she doth marry? For there are many reasons, but the chief of these is because he hath asked her. [For every woman knoweth t kiss without turning out that matrimony i# a cross—but that an 0ld mald Is sometimes crosser. Yea, a husband 1s a tonic which is bitter to the taste, but sweeteneth the disposi- tion. And It Is easier to work any man than to work for a living! Selah! Modeln un Wives. Models of dressmakers are not always models of wives, argued a lawyer when pleading In the Parls divorce court for a Parls costumier. * This pereon had a par- ticular fancy for models. He marrled one long ago, whereupon she ruired his busi- noss and drove him to seek and obtain a diverce, Tut, not content with this experi- ence, the fashionable dressmaker marrled a second model after he had recovered a part of his lost fortune. She turned out no better than the first, and did even worse by running away with an “amant.” The lawyer concluded as follows: *Do not re- fuse my client the divorce he asks for. There are-still plenty of models in the Rue de la Paix and the Place Vendcme, and perhaps—" The court very generously granted the dressmaker the divorce he asked for, leaving him at full liberty to choose a third “manneqtiin” for his wife. The “Model Hushand” Plotured. More than 100 Chicago girls, pretty, viv clous, and fairly well to do, want husbands —that is , if they can find the right ones. The responses of these young women, de- scribing thelr ideal man, were read at the Halstead Street Institutional chureh, Chi- cago, by the Rev. D. D. Vaughan, pastor of the congregation, during the course of a sermon on “The Model Husband." 4 majority of the young women writers surprised both the pastor and audlence by stating positively that they wanted their husband to be the real “boss.” They also declared it was not hecessary that he be handsome, wealthy, talented, or a ‘“swell Season’s Footwear Pretty and of Many Colors T I8 in the little accessories of dress rather than in the frocks and coats and other Imposing items of the wardrobe that irresistible temptation to ex- travagance les for the average woman. A \ A woman knows how many frocks she must have and can afford to buy, and un- lets she has a plutocratic income she hesi- tates before buying an expensive frock which she does not need; but a belt, or a bag, or a searf, or a parasol—one can af- ford to inqulge a passing fancy in such small matters. And these small matters have a most surprising way of swelling a bill or deplet- Ing a purse, especially now when fineness, daintiness and perishableness are quite likely to go hand in hand with modishnes: The American woman spends far more upon dress accessories than she did ten or even five years ago. For that matter, she spends more all along the line of dress, but that is another story. Take the fashionable woman's footwear, for example. The number of pairs of shoes and slippers which the summer girl now considers essentlal to her outfit would have been thought madly extravagant not 80 very long ago. Probably it Is extrava- gant now, but the extravagance is looked upon as & matter of course, and tan shoes, patent leath white shoes, sucdes, pumps, evening slippers to match each evening frock, are counted as necessities. GO ha It one's dress al- lowance will war- rant departure from such economical selt-restraint there s ample opportun- ity for self-indul- gence, and foot- wear which a few years ago would have been considered rather too fan- ciful for good taste, I8 now accepted with- out question. Among the mew things are some delightful, if audacious, low shoes in gray suede, with heels and plain leather sovered buckles In color, and the same Idea is carried out in white shoes. A smart pair of colonlal shces in white for example, & leather covered heel of & modish green and a buckle to match, and would be charming with a white sum- mer frock and parasol and hat echoing the not of green. Or, if you prefer gray, there is a pretty shoe In gray suede with heel and buckle of a deep yet soft rose tone. The bronze footwear has come into its own again with a rush, and apparently every woman will have at least one pair of bronze slippers or shoes M her summer supply, with bronze silk stockings to match, It 1s said, too, that the leather workers have greatly improved upon the old time bronze leather and that today this bronz- Ing 18 ®o achieved that the finish is no longer perishable and will stand wetting and hard wear. Gloves vary but little from season to meason eave In the detall of popular length, and the makers' efforts to launch fancy offects usually meet with flat fallure. The long sleeve of fashion has brought the short one button and two-button gloves back to prominence and these are offered in everything from chamols, always a practical summer favorite, to the finest and softest of kid. In novelties the most possible and at- tractive things are the white walking gloves with a line of color Introduced into the stitching on thelr backs, and some of these In green and white, violet and white, brown and white, etc., suggest pleasing ef- fects in. combination with toflets of the same color scheme. Other gloves have the wrists lined with soft contrasting color. The elbow and three-quarter length sleeves are not en- tirely taboo and there Is still & con- siderable sale for long gloves, a sale which will undoubt- edly increase in vol ume as the dog days approach, though for ordinary purposes the long sleeve and its accompanying short glove are the thing. The vogue of the skirt rising above the normal walst line to meet the blouse and of the princess frock has robbed the belt of importance, yet many women who cling to the separats blouse and to whom the high skirt line s net becoming call for belts, and there i8 a good sale for really attractive novelties In this line. We Have mentioned béfore in thig column the clever adaptation of raffla to belt and bag uses, and since that first mention, the idea has developed considerably. Several of these belts and bags are illustrated among the sketches today, but thelr charm 1s to a great extent lost in the sketch, for it depends largely upon the soft strad coloring and the fineness of the woven pattern. In many cases, too, colored stones, such as imitation coral, turquolse, amethyst, Jade, etc, are most effectively used in cabochon form, the note of glowing color setting off delightfully the soft, dull, even- ing tint of the raffia. The latest departure in this line Is the raffla parasol matching belt and bag. The parasol cover, of finely woven raftia, looks at first glance much like some heavy siik of the pongee class. It may or may not have a narrow fringe finishing the border, and when ensuite with belt and bag the parasol handle may be studded with stones matching those used spar- Ingly on belt buckle and bag mountings. Those sgts are expensive trifles, but have & most summery oharm and a real besuty of handiwork and coloring. Some chic French girdles composed of many heavy cords caught together with a Jewelled buckle of harmonizing eolor and left to fall in long ends are shown by the importers, but perhaps the smartest belts for the tallored or stmple frock are the plain belts of soft folded leather in ex- auisite colorings, stich as are now achleved by the dyers—one of the modish green or blue or wistaria or rose tones—with a plain buckle of harmonizing metal, gold, ellver, bronze, gun metal or pewter. In fancy stocks, collars, ete., there are innumerahle novolties, so many indeed that they must have a column all their own. The Dutth or Puritan collar is in great demand and exquisite collars of this type are being brought out in response to this demand, marvels of delicate hand em- broldery, Hngerle and lace. with jabots and sometimes cuffs to match. These fine collar and cuff sets are costly, but pretty models are shown at reason- able prices, and many women are busily embroidering collars for themselves. Lin- serie stocks have almost taken the place of the stiff linen collar, though the latter still has its adherents; but women are making the mistake of wearing fine and elaborate stocks of this type with walsts too seyere to be In keeping with the collar, and the re- sulting effects make one long for a revival of the stitf linen collar, though it is neither 80 daintily feminine nor so becoming to the average woman as the finer stock or Nngerie and lace There are models in_the stocks and jabots or bows severs enough in spite of thelr fineness to consort well even with the most plainly tallored or shirt walsts, and it is to be hoped that the summer girl will exercise discretion in her selection and donning of neckwear.

From the earliest days of the ring the knock-out blowwas aimed for the jaw, the temple or the jugular vein. Stomach punches were thrown in to worry and weary the fighter, but if a scientific man had told one of tne old fighters that the most vulnerable spot was the region of the stomach, he'd have laughed ut him for an ignoramus.

The feminine candidates for matrimonial honors also were practically agreed that their future “better halvi must be good hearted, kind and affectionate.” Business or professional men were not preferred by most of the youns women, but ‘‘clean, honest men who make clegn money" were desired. Dr. Vaughan secured the opinions of the young women by sending out a letter in which he expressed his desire to get the opinion of thoughtful women on the sub- Ject, and then propounded the following Questions régarding the model husband. 1.
