ealling upon Governor William C.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
“DUN.
IKE “boycott,”
combe” and =a
whi h
khowledged members of the
kit iamoily, “dun” had its
origin in a man of that name—a
certain Jolin Dun, wno
stable In Bugland during
early part of the last century.
Dun, might be supposed,
was a past master of his profes
gion. a saccessful collector of
debts. No jou was too hard for
him to tackle, no debtors too
eallons for. him to prick their
conscience or shame them into
payment in one way or another,
One of the coustable’s pet
schemes was to call upon a
debtor twiea, and on each of his
first two visits he would wear
his ordinary clothes, Then, if
the debtor still refused to pay
and there was no doubt that ob-
ligation should be met, Duo
would adopt the stratagem of
dressing \n some outlandish cos-
tume--a scarlet cloak or a pair
of green tights—so as to make
himself ag conspicuous as pos
gible, Thus attired and ringing
# bell in order further to pro-
claim the reason for his visit, he
would return, and it was seldom
that the debtor withstood more
than one of these public an-
nouncements of his delinquency.
Because Constable Dun was
so successful In the collection
of maney due It became common
in such cases to may, “You'll
have to send Dun for your mon-
ay" or “You'll have to Dun him
to get it,” and the expression
persisted long after the con:
stable himself was dead and for-
gotten.

THE WOMAN'S CLUB
Ham
HE importange for the business
or professional woman of bes
longing to a club is a real one. Wom.
en's work both in business and the
professions Is still a fluid condition,
ards are being established, and the
effect of the vote is being felt. To
get the benefit of these changes, a
woman needs to know what is being
done In her special neighborhood ana
by her group of workers. There is no
better way of doing this than by join
ing a club, especially a club affiliated
with the Federation of Business and
Professional Women's clubs,
It Is not only the
with other women working in your
own field that benefits you In such
a club, but the contact with women
in other branches, With that comes a
widening of opportunity. The woman
not happy in her work can often find
another opening through her club "ac.
quaintances and club activities. She
is constantly aware of what is going
on, and she sees what Is belng done
by other women. Together with them
she ean direct her effort to phtting
through proposed schemes for betters
ing the standing of women earners,
A good business club for women Is
an asset to any community. If there
is no such club In your community,
start one. Get the other women to-
gether, get touch with the feder-
ation, and start your club, It will be
an assistance to every business and
professional woman in your town,
