a | | i | SATURDAY, DECEMEER 11, 1920, TRL-WIFE CONTINUES WORK ER MARRIAGE TO AID OLLEGE BOY HUSBAND; SHE CRITICISED ’ s Dear Miss Grey: Now that there are so many men out pf work and one hears so many bitter complaints against 1 ried women working, | am writing you for your readers’ ginion and setting forth my side of the question, Am | ified in working? am just 20 years old and I have been with one company 314 years. I started with them an inexperienced kid, as phone girl, and have worked up to the highest gir!’s place e office with a salary of $120 a month. A year ago Xmas I married a college boy the same age (19), ‘@nd neither one of us had a cent, he having put himself thru i from the time he was 8, when his father died, and I ing supported myself since leaving high school at 16. When I married, the manager asked me if I was going to Sontinue working and when I said “Yes” he was glad and told , my place would always be open for me, so I continued as lore. My boy husband soon went to work in a small con- ern, arranging to turn back $60 a month out of his salary of $150 toward a half interest in the concern, the work for which he has, and is, studying every night of his life; also we are paying back a doctor bill of mine, contracted before age.
