By Loretto C. Lynch.
KRHAPS Mrs. Johnson would not
have had the money to send het
daughter to business when she
graduated from the elementary schooi
had it not been for a happy accident.
It was five years ago. She and Carl
had quarreled. Like most quarrels, 1t
started over a triffe, and gradually as
gsumed the proportion of a mountain
Might have been another woman, might
have been because of a dozen things
that Carl suddenly became dissatisfied
with his home
it culminated with Carl's coming in
intoxicated one night and throwing the
meat that Amelia had laboriously pre
pared, out of the window. \
“Phat settles it!” Amelia sobbed
through her Lears. “Tonight 1 leave
you."
And then the man expressed that fa
miliar boast, “Hul! What would YOU
do without me? Without ua support
vou'd starve to dealbh 'h(r you
couldn’'t work at anything an make
your salt.”
What he sald was true. Bitterly true
when two weeks later, at the downtown
boarding house, she found hersgelf still
without a job. To the guestions, “Can
you sew? Can you cook? Can you
typewrite? Can you—can you--""her
answer was always the same. ‘“‘No, or
not very well, or not much.”
But a proud woman is not easily beat
en. And the third week she found out
that she could fare fairly well if she
could but sew two rows of u!ilrhlnx
on the sewing machine properly.
men's shirt factory was in search of
responsible women to stitch collar
bands and cuffs for shirts. The shirts
were cut and sewed at the fatcory, but
the bands and cuffs were just pinned.
It was almost three months later that
Carl was taken sick. He begged her
to return; he craved her forgiveness
after the manner of sick husbands, and
Ameiia returned.
Five years had gone by and little
Helen had graduated from the Ameri
can public school
But a father with only a mechanic's
salary can not offer any very great ad
vantages to his daughter. Especially is
this true when the daughter is not re
markably bright nor sufficiently clever
tqg win a scholarship.
It was Amelia who went to the blue
sugar bowl and took from it the little
savings that was to put her daughter
in a position where, forever after, no
man could honestly boast that she could
not mu'q a living If she had to.
For almost five vears she had kept
ug her work for the shirt factory. Now
she was hnndllni the more high-class
garments, A silk shirt that delifihu-d
the nesthetic sense even if it did dig
deeply Into the Eum of some wealthy
rnrlemun. might often be seen in
mella’'s sewing room. These camo
pinned from the factory, and Amelia
completed the work in her own home
Had she been able to give all her
time to It she might have accumulated
quite a little money, but as it was, she
was a housewife with all the cares of
tha average housewife, She had chil
dren to bathe and feed and soothe. She
had wash day and lronlnfi day. Then,
too, there were times when Carl was
out of work or {IL
There were times when her own
health did not permit of extra work.
But, taken all in all, she averaged ahout
$lO & week. Some weeks when there
was no Income Amelia had to draw
upon the au?u bowl's treasure. Some.-
timea It gad a doctor's bill or went
for some dental work, Once in a while
it bnu’ht a new sult for Amelia or new
shoes for some shoe-thin younester
Once, at Frndu-uon. it made Helen
look pretty in her soft white frock and
white silk hose and white kid slippers.
And now Amelia's skirt money is go
ing to send Helen to a business col
lege. And when she graduates a yeat
from now, there's going Lo be enough
more money in that sugar bowl to buy
her a good suit and a neat hat and 1
palr of good shoes so she may get the
position she goes after.
Mrs. Amelia Johnson is just another
of the “housewives who dared.”

Writes BOOR
Mrs, William H. Felton, noted wom
an politician and writer, has a book
of reminiscences, under the title of
“Country Life in Georgia."”
The book is valuable as a historical
record and throws light on the early
days of Georgia and the people who
have figured in public life, that comes
first hand.
The first chapter deals with the
Indian life in the State, and goes on
through the different periods of his
tory and social life,
Mrs. Felton has dedicated her book
to the late Mrs. Russell Sage, with a
beautiful tribute to that good women
whose life was consecrated to char
ftable deeds and the uplift of hu
manity
In her foreword Mrs., Felton ex
plains why she has written a book in
her eighty-second year, and, after
having read the book, one is glad that
she did write ot, for the pages teem
with interesting reminiscent stories
and bright reflections.
Mrs, Felton is a leader in suffrage
movements and is the only woman
in Georgia asked to spPak in the
House before the Legisiature.
In her book, “Country Life in Geor
gia,” Mrs. Felton touches upon many
subjects, and gives many of her pub
lic addresses, made before notable
bodies.
Although in her eightv-third year,
Mrs. Felton will go to Washington to
attend the special Congress and work
for presidential suffrage, which she
believes will follow the white primary
vote recently given women in many
States.
