THE Activities and Views of Progressive Women in Various Women Who ERE arc some records, complled by the Survey, of girl workers in New York city, showing the difficulty they have in holding jobs for any length of time and the small wages pald: One girl, now M years old, has the fol- 19wing record: Learner, perfumery (prob. ably filling bottles), one /year, §8 to $6 woeek, left because work was slack; packer, six months, $.50 & week, left because work Was slack; operator on a switchboard, one year and three months, 35 a week, left “to advance,” which she did by entering a tlle factoty to paste paper on tiles at $8 a week. At the end of a year dull business sent her out to look for work again, Dur- ing & working perfod of six years she worked searcely more than four. Tose, trained in miliinery in a trade #chool, began her career at $4 a week in a position which lasted six weeks, when the season énded. Sue found another position in millinery which lasted two weeks. She was idle a month, When the season began again in January, she found another place at 8 a week, but two wecks later was sent for by her previous employer, with whom #he stayed until May, when again the sea- son was over. In August she returned to work, but In November secured office work to fill In slack time. For Instance, there is Mollle, who took off ruchings from a machine for a year and a half. She earned $3.30 a week, but left Lecause night work made her {ll. She be- came assistant forewoman, sewing curtains for one year at $4 a week, but left because there was no chance of advancement. She was operator on children's coats six months in one place and six weeks in an- other. She was operator on skirts one month In one place and three months in another. She earned # a week, but each time left because business was slack. Gifts for Graduates. “ n another month school boys and girls ‘fn bé looking toward the goal for which they have striven since the days when, in short frocks and knlckerbockers, they started for school-and that is graduation. And parents and friends will be looking for approprinte gifts for the young people Of these there are many. Books, of course, are most acceptable, Ome wants an attractive volume of favorite poems or the latest novel, got up with good illustrations ahd a fascinating cover. And along with bioks ate a wide selection of excellent pictures framed in exceedingly good style. A gitt which any boy or girl s sure to be delighted with is a coat sweater of gray or white. For the summer vacation, whether at seashore or mountains, it s in- dispengable, The angora ones are light and watm, but are rather more expensive than the heavier woolen ones ¥or the boy or girl who plays tennis a racquet of their favorite make will be warmly accepted. Then there are light unlined gauntlet gloves of soft buckskin, a rubberized silk overcoat, chiffon vell and other little ac- cesdories for the wirl who motors. Also a riding crop with a gold or silyer mounted handle, engraved with initials or mono- kram for the boy or girl who rides. Just ‘now the jungle is being heard from n more ways than one. The 8hops are owing jungle scarfpins, which are most itiractive. They are llons and tigers mounted on baroque pearls, and very lively looking monkeys and elephants with jeweled ayes. There are gayly colored tropleal birde done In mosaics and enamel. While these may be only a shortlived fad, they are now the smart thing. Cutf links and cravat clasps of plain and frosted gold, with Initials in English block letters, are a good choice for a boy. Strings of crystal beads are very attractive for a girl, and neck chains of aqua-marines and japls lazull pendants hung on fine gold ehadns are sure to make some girl happy. Jet jewelry Is immensely popuiar, but rather too old for a young girl. Gold and silver fflets for the hair are to be had in & wide varlety of designs and barettas of hand-carved amber and tortolse shell would make an/ appropriate gift. A set of hand-embroidered French un- @erclothes and any number of silk @ck- ings always to the feminine heart. Belt buckles are a good cholce, particu- larly those of heavy silver with Initials in & deep, bold design. Then a signet ring of plain gold or set with jade, turquolse or other semi-preclous stone s a gift for elther a boy or girl. Al Kkinde of things for the desk are ghown In leather and hammered brass and copper. Candlesticks of the latter are ex- coedingly good lookling, and there are many kinds of bowls and trovs to be seen. Work. Pure Milk Cfor Bables. In an account of a new method of milk supply which fs)saving thousands of fn- fant ltves in New York, Rheta Chiide Dorr, writing in Hampton's Magazine, gives this d'vid pen portrait of the mother and chiM %mmum among the immigrant poor in this country. Down In New York's Little Ttaly she discovered a milk depot which, last August, only forty-nine mothers could be coaxed to patron They have thelr own ideas about baby culture on the east side The grandmothers of the quarter opposed it bitterly, especially when it was known that every baby had to be taken back ance a week, stripped and we'ghed. Stripped In any kind of weather! Did anyone ever hear the like? Neverthela the yourg mothers saw how the bables who were taken resu- larly to the milk depot waxed fat and slept at night they began to rebel agalnst the tyrants. One hundred and fort Italtan bables now attend the consultations and when To find a good dressmaker from the very highest grade offashionable 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 want-ads, It's profitable. It's iuteresting. 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 bargain that with which the other man will gladly part. They are cheap and they certainly do the business, | less agsres: drink the ocertified are at pre a quart bables. The grandmothers insist on attending the consultations to see that nothing hLorrible happens to the infants. Gradually they are becoming interested In the experiment. The other day an olive hued youngster of six months, being put on the scales, was found to have Increased In welght a whole pound since the week before. The mother's arms out to clasp her baby, but the grandmother, excited beyond measure, snatched the naked Infant and waved him like a banner in the envious faces of the other mother “He gains a pound!" she “Mother of God, the bambino pound! It i3 a miracle!” as House Surgeon. Imagine, it you can, a young woman 24 years of age defeating thirty-five men in a medical examination for the post of interne in a hospital. How's that for brains? The examining board had to give her the place. She was head and shoulders above her competitors in excellence. There was a fierce dispute, of course, and then one old doctor exclaimed: “The girl won. The girl ahould have ft! And that is how In time Dr. Mary Craw- ford became house surgeon of Willlamsburg hospital, New York City. \ But before she reached the position she had to serve her term as ambulance sur- geon in one of the “toughest” districts of Greater New York. Night after night she was aroused from the sleep of absolute exhaustion. In flve minutes she was dressed, and three minutes later she was in the clattering ambulance that turned corners at breaknedk speed; while she clung to the straps for dear life, And where did these calls—at midnight, at 2 and 3 o'clock In the morning—take her? To saloon fights, to fires, to scenes of murder. Nice work for a well bred, charm- Ing woman—eh, what? And that Is just what little Dr. Crawford 1s.

A 18-year-old girl disappeared from the home of her wealthy parents and immedt- ately a search was started, on the theory that she had been kidnaped. A reward of 36,000 was offered and New York was thrown into great excitement. Three days later she returned home from Boston, where she had gone of her own volition. Sho had found employment as a waltress and had become tired of her enterprise when she cut her finger. Homesickness conquered the spirit of Independence. This girl's explanation of the reason, says the Washington Poat, for her esca- pade Is worthy of serlous study by par- ents, She complains that she was humili- ated by having a maid sent with her to school, and that she was treated on all occasions as. incapable of thought and un- worthy to be trusted. On the day of her departure she was moved to take the step by being minutely instructed by her mother how to reach her home from a downtown shop. She felt that it was no longer nec- essary to be treated like a little child. Bhe longed for freedom of action, and she toolishly strfick oft at a tangent, without thought of the agony she was causing her parents The girl acted in a silly, selfish manner, it fs true, but she Is not wholly to blame There is a large measure of responsibil- Ity resting upon the elders, who falled to study her temperament, to recognise her need of greater liberty. Many parents make this mistake of treating thelr chil- dren without reference to the personal differences between Individuals. In the same family there will be widely distinct types, and each child presents a separate problem of training and development and discipline for the parents to solve. In the matter of freedom of actlon especlally is there need of the greatest care and the wisest discrimination. Restraint and close guardianship may be necessary In one case and harmful in another, in the same fam- fly. The ehild who is closely hedged In by restrictions may, In fact, be really In need chiefly of a little liberty, real or tmagined. But it is never safe to a'low & chlld to feel the strain of parental sus- plefon. Perfect frankness between parents and children Is more effective than rules and safeguards in the development of char- acter. e e Cradles for a Royal Baby. Among the gifts which Queen Mother Wil- helmina has recelved and which she appre- clates greatly is that of the puplls of the orphans’ home In The Hague, and which 18 extremely unique. It conslsts of elght beautifully made cradles with toflet b kets all elaborately trimmed with lace. These are for the queen to give to elght Dutch women who may have children born on the same day as the royal heir. An odd gitt, according to Fraulein de Vries, is that of the women of Urk, an lsland in the Zuyder Zee. They dressed a doll in the plcturesque costume, as strange to the city resident of Holland as to the forelgner. Hood and shield are of rare laoe, the seven skirts of the finest materlal covered by a little black silk apron. Golden catches on the hood over the ears, golden hooks to keep the silk shawl in place, and a neck- lace of coral with a golden clasp complete the doll's outfit. The women of Amsterdam have given the queen of Holland a cradle that is a triumph of art and skill. It is made of rosewood, inlald with gold. The curtains are of white velvet and are embroldered with the em- blems of the house of Orange and the coat of arms of Amsterdam. From The Hague has been received a sec- ond candle as a tribute of offection and loyalty. It is a veritable jewel of industrial art of Louls XVI style and is elaborately decorated with figures of children and the royal crown. The white stand upon which it rests is finely carved and Inlald with gold. The basinette was made at the royal basket works and is entirely covered with real lace made at the school of lace making at The Hague. The ruffled curtains are also of real lace, bordered with a design of orange blossoms and small oranges. The women of the southern provinces have also expressed their love for the royal mother with a gift. It Is a baby carriage overlaid with ivory. The mountings are heavy with silver. It has a white leather canopy draped with real lace and to the equipment belongs two very fine linen sheets, lace edged, a white satin carrlage spread and a sliver hot water bottle.

The Farson'a Fae. “Won't you come down long enough to marry us?' came a volce from the dark- ness when the Rev. James E. Adams, the Methodist Episcopal minister, at Maurice- town, N. J., poked his head out of a sec- ond-story window soon after midnight, in OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: MAY Walks of Life answer o a the rarsonage. Come around tomorrow. It's too late to marry you tonight.” replied the parson. , we are In a hurry, and have driven the way from Miliville to get you to perform the ceremony,” sald John K. Brandriff, son of Ephralm Brandriff, a Millville merchant, who had rapped at the door. “Walt a minute,” said the dominle. He was soon dressed, and performed the ceremony, with his wife and daughter as witnesses. The bride was Mise 4 Culking of Millville. Before the happy couple drove away they handed the Rev. Mr. Adams a pink envolope, which felt through the paper as If It contained a bank- note. The minister says he found Inside a plece of heavy paper containing 14 cents and on the paper was written: ““This is all wo can spare now. Wil see you later.” The minister has framed the papor and colns, and it adorns the wall of his study. He added the date nnd the names of the contracting parties—New York Times, knock on the front door of Ml Tdeal Wives. Middle-aged bachelors, widowers and young unmarried men to the number of more than 100 who have felt the call of springtime, “when a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love,” recently made frantic appeals for wives—that is, the Ideal kind—through Rev. D. D, Vaughan at the Halsted Street Institu- tional church, Chicago. The letters of many of the swains, all de- seribing In detall the qualifications of the women whom they desired as helpmests, were read to an appreclative congregation by the pastor of the church, reports the Chicago Tribune. Dr. Vaughan preached his rgular Bunday ovening sermon on the subject of the “Ideal Wife." His material he obtalned from the letters which he read. While the qualifications for . wives-to-be were varied and amusing in many cases, it was evident most of the men who wrote to the pustor were serious In thelr re- quests. Every man wrote that he did not wish his wife to be a college graduate, nor a club woman, nor a reformer. Nelther was it considered essential that she be pretty or talented. What ever man wanted was an “old-fashioned girl. Dr. Vaughan sent out a list of questions to several hundred unmarried men to as- cortain the prevalling opinion s to what the fdeal wife should be. He sald in his sermon, however, that most of the rhen evidently had mistaken him for a matri- monial agent.” The following were the questions which inspired the appeals from the unmarried: Must she be pretty? Must she be & good cook and a neat housekeeper? Must she be stylish? Must she be vivacious or qulet? Must she be a soclety or a home girl? Must she be & college girl? Must she be falented? Do you prefer the ‘new’” woman or the old-fashioned kind? Must she be & olub woman or a reformer or_interested in_politics? Do you want & clinging vy or a sturdy oak. Out of the 110 men who answered the let- ters only three wanted pretty wives, All insisted that the acceptable girl be a good cook and neat housckeeper. Only two men wanted a stylish wife. Mbore of them wanted her vivaclous rather than quiet All of them insisted on her being a “home girl” The prevalling opinion scemed to be against sodlety women, reformers, or those Interested .in politics. Several men were partial to “clinging * while others though it would be a good idea if they could get a “sturdy oak” —a woman who was amply able to keep them well in hand. One of the letters which created some amusement was from a widower in Spo- kane, Wash. “I am a widower, 5 years old,” he wrote. “That may seem old, but I want to tell Gowns HIS is a good year for the girl greduate not merely in the vital matter of the graduating frock but all along the Mne of A girl- ish wardrobe. - The princess frocks — which does at all mean the straight, un- broken line frocks once monopollzing that name, but takes in all the dainty little one-plece atfairs predominant this season— are in the main exceedingly girlisn in charagter. There are, to be sure, innumer- able frock models of weird and compli- cated construction quite outside the limits of the chic simplicity which should be the characteristic of the girl's wardrobe, but there are also models galore which seem to have been designed especially for the girl In her late teens, though her elders have adopted them. The linens, pongees and cotton stutfs are’ made up into delightfully youthful one-plece frocks. The fine serges are used for warmer models quite as delighttul. The strailght, loose, long coats of the popular street costumes are particularly adapted to the slender, undeveloped youthful figure, though the cceentricitics which mark some of these coats must be avolded and only the simple models adapted to the grl's use. As for evening frocks—but much of what has been sald about graduating frocks on the opposite page apply to the girl's even- ing frocks, with added freedom of coloring and flowered effects. The three lttle frocks pictured here rep- resent three smart and praetical type Wwhich may be developed in various ma- terfals, though the original models were excellent In material and coloring. The trig little pongee frock with slightly bloused bodice, wide collar and cravat makes up charmingly in lght- weight serge and In linen. Few well dressed girls will be without one of the practical unlined princess frocks of fine lghtwelght serge which ave popular this season; and either in dark blus or In white such & frock will be found useful for the coaler days of summer and for seaside and mountain wear. A remarkably trig little Francls model in serge which has been much copied both in white and in blue has a bodice with Duteh neck finighed by a round collar of real Irish lace. The original model was in white with jet buttons down the front of the short bodice, and this bodice was caught down in rounded white soutached tabs over a black patent leather belt which fastened with & blg jet buckle The skirt, rising & little above the nor- mal waist line to meet the black belt, was very simple, with groups of inset plaits held down by tabs like those of the bodice. A collarless coat was fastened with blg jet button and was finished around the neck by fine soutaching Princess frocks in black and white shep- herd checks have rivalled those of serge for girls' wear, but have been commonized 10 a degree which is impossibie with the ve dark blue or white serge. Pongee, especially in the heavier and firmer qualities numerous now, is an ex- cellent cholee for either a princess frock or a coat and skirt frock, and in many cases tallors or dressmakers are making up & princess frock, coat and separate skirt en suite, 80 that the one coat does duty with the princess frock, or, when one Built Upon Youthful Lines SUMMER GOWNS. that 1s too hot or too formal, with a lingerie blouse and skirt. The initlal ex- pense of such a combination is consider- able, but the advantages are many. In white serge or lght lined pongee the skirt always solls before the coat, and the separate skirt will save the more ex- pensive and less easily cleaned princess ‘wondertully. A pongee or linen skirt with blouse of net trimmed in the linen or soutached all over Is pretty with or without am accom- panying coat, and one of the vermicelll pattern nets dyed to match the linen Is a very good substitute for braided net.

A collar and shallow guimpe are of white. Duteh neck effects of all kinds are used on the linen frocks, the girlish flat collars of embroidered lin- gerie or linen and of heavy lace, making a good finish for the more severely plain ltnen models and often supplying the only relleving light touch on one of the dark toned heavy linens. A touch of black in collar, cra- vat or girdle is liked, too, as a reljet for colored linen or pon- Bee. There are many cotton cloths closely approximating linen In welght and fin- ish this season, and racquet cloth, knick- erbocker cloth and similar cottons are much used for princess frocks on lines similar to those described in con- nection with linens Chambrays, a trifle lighter and cooler than Unen or even than gingham, co. - in de- lectable colors, the range of soft Lutts and faintly brownish yellows being espectally lovely in this plain material.
