NEWS OF INTEREST TO WOMEN
WITHOUT DISGUISE
If I have erred ,in showing all my
fe**rt,
And lost .your favor by lack of
P ride : ^
If standing like a beggar at your
side
*
With naked feet 1 have lost the art
Of those who bargain well in pas
sion’s mart, %
And win the things they want by
what they hide,
Be mine the fault as mine the hope
denied,
Be mine the lover's and the loser’s
part.
The sin, if sin it was, I do repent,
And take the pennanee of myself
alone;
Yet after I have borne the punish
ment,
I shall not fear to stand before the
throne
Of love with open heart, and make
this plea;
“At least I have not lied to her or
Thee! tf
—Henry Van Dyke.

BITS ABOUT WOMEN
East St. Louis, 111., claims the old
e8fc Sunday school teacher in the
country in Mrs. Margaret Allison,
who has never missed attending
church and Sunday school for 90
years. She is now 95 and joined
her first Sunday school at the age of
j five in a Presbyterian church in Scot
(land.
Mrs. Allrion invariably walks to
church and Sunday school and is re
markably active for one of her age.
Her faculties are well preserved.
She attributes her long life and
good health to contentment,
Mrs. Allison came to this country
from Scotland as a bride and has
resided most of her life in Missouri.
She says the most exciting incident
in her career took place in that
state. One morning she was called
upon at’ her rural home by Jesse
.'ames, the famous bandit, and his
gang. They asked for breakfast,
and Mrs. Allison, thinking them
7:i!ci soldiers, complied readily,
' e.'.ing before them the best the
house contained. They paid her lib
erally and complimented her cooking
and it was not until some hours
later that 3he learned of the iden
tity of her guests. She said they
,
were so well behaved that she could
■scarcely realize they were criminals
and fugitives from justice.
At a baby show held at Folke
ston, England, every mother who
entered a baby had to sing a lullaby.
Mrs. Mary Gartinghouse, of Vera,
Okla. cashier of the Vera state
bank, recently led a posse of citizens
who frustrated an attempt of two
men to rob the bank, One of the
robbers was killed and the other,
wounded and captured. Mrs. Gar
tinghouse personally disarmed the
wounded robber.
English women, members of the
League of the Church militant, are
fighting to have the word “obey 1
stricken from the marriage service
of the church of England, The
marriage service as it stands now
is the application of 16th century
ideas of women to the 20th century,”
says Mrs. Marston Arces, an
official of the league. ‘It implies
a distinct inferiority both of position
and of intellect in the wife."
Mrs. Helen H. Gardener, a mem
ber of the United States civil service
commission, say that it is a far
cry from the position of women in
the government service at the time
of the civil war to the present day.
It was as much of a shock to the
average man when General Spinner,
then treasurer of the United States,
announced that he proposed to em
ploy some women in clerical posi
tions as it would be today if the
national parties nominated women
for president and vice president.”
Mrs. Gardener further najd that
as late as 1870 it was considered
necessary to place a law on the
statute books even to permit the
employment of women in clerkships
in the government offices, Today,
more than 27,000 of the 65,000 gov
ernment employees in Washington
are women.
The National Association of Col
ored Women is a comparatively
young organization, At their con
vention held in Chicago in August'
chief interest was shown in scholar
ship funds and homes for working
girls. Eight thousand dollars was
in hand for the proposed $50,000
scholarship fund and there are new
homes for negro working girls to
the credit of the Kansas, Indiana'’
and Iowa clubs. Richmond, Va., re
ported $10,000 raised for such a
home.
PERSIA PAYS $60,000

Dressed in a boyish sweater, with
wide skirts and mannish shoes a
new phase of flapperish was seen
nere, as an advance model of the
1925 flapper walked along the pro
menades the Peachtree Arcade.
Her hair, why it was shorter
than the raving locks worn by
local “tea hounds” last winter. One
of her masculine friends stopped her
on the Arcade corridors, which gave
observers a • chance to compare the
masculine and feminine styles of
hair.
Wtih the exception of the girl’s
longer and curling side burns, there
was little difference between the
boy and girl, except that the boy’s
hair was longer.
Sixty thousand babies were enter
