Odd Superstitions.
Supersition rules many people
of the world, even in such a com
mon practice as washing clothes.
Morocco’s women are sure that
clothes washed on Tuesday will,
shrink,and that Saturdads wash
ing soils faster. Rumania’s house
wives, on the contray wash Sat.
urdays, but are sure their suds
would turn to blood if they
should attempt to wash on Gocd
Friday. English peasants say a
death will occur soon in the fam
ily if anyone makes his most
tragic of all our religious an
niversaries her washday.
Russian women believe that if
they wash colthes at Whitsuntide
muchfeared water sprits will
show their displeasure.
Only in the United States do
women have no such foolisli ideas.
Our wives and mothers make no
distinction between the days.
Cleaning is done swiftly and
easily now, and economically,too
On the Isle of Skye, it is said
that if a man dies and his family
does not wash his cothes, the
ghost of a woman will appear
and do it for him. That would be
a washday even easier than those
in our rightly equipped homes,
but there is no record of any
“Skye-ites” ever putting the
superstition to the test.
Teachers Cupid.
Discrimination against women
school teachers who marry has
become widespread and the
American Federation of Teachers
is marshalling its forces in their
behalf.
They ask the pertinent quest
ion: “Why should teachers be
barred from their profession
when they marry, while stenog
raphers, bookkeepers, clerks
and other women wage-earners
are not subject to discharge for
this reason, so long as they ac
ceptably perform their duties?”
Among the champions of the
married teachers is Mrs. Hellen
Taft Manning, daughter of Chief
Justice Taft, she herself holding
the important position of dean of
famed Byran Mawr College.
To a fair minded person it
would appear that the only test
which should be applied to any
one in a public or private position
is that of fitness for the duties to
be performed and the willingnees
to perform them faithfully.

YOU want something warming

vegetable is corn, and there’s no
better way to eat it than heated,
luscious and creamy, just as it
comes from the can. But you
don’t want to eat the same thing
every day, and fortunately corn
can be combined with a number
of other vegetables. Here are a

both inexpensive and good.
