Does she violate all the rules of war by opening fre on the enemy under @ flag of truce? This {s just Mre. Annfe Nathan Meyer's way of ask-| ; ng whether the stenographer, the tolephone operator | f and other girls employed downtown do not invade the! neutral territory of business with the arts and wiles of the drzwing room, instead of with the sexless eMfciency of machines. Mrs. Meyer propounds these interesting queries in} a certain nimertoally impressive type of working woman must plead gullty! to her etern indictment. Mra, Meyer presents the type of woman whe finds so objectionable as Rose Malone, telephone girl, whom the euthor describes as follows: “Enter Rose Matone, Geer ae yolgar; dyed hair arran: re mendous pompadour; artificial tite curle behind; big, unsteady picture hat, pretentious but of cheapest sre coarse, purple motoring veil arranged over hat; everything about her ® poor imitation of fashionable woman; every- thing as unsuited as possible to the needs of @ whee earner, under- fed and unhealthy.
