SUGfGESTED LABOR-SAVING
FOR FARMERS' WIVES
Thounds of Country Girls Pour Into the Cities Every
Year to Avoid the Hardships of Life on
Farms Suggested Remedies
By ELLEN ADAIR
THE lot of the average farmer! wife Is
a very hard and at the came time a
Xrjr tknely one. She hai little or no
My and her life ! spent In one per
petual round of hard
work which la never
ceasing, and which
never lessens In amount.
Only the other day I
waa talking with a
farmer'a wlfo who was
1 vliltlne this city for the
I first time. "It Is won
derful here," she said,
"but do you know the
only thine which I wish
to do Is rest! I can take
pleasure In sightseeing, for I am thor
oughly tired out. My Ufo out In tha
ountry Is one continual round of hard
and unremitting toll I rise at five In tho
morning, sifmmer and winter, and from
then Until 9 o'clock at night I am never
fer a moment Idle!"
"Have you no time for reading?" sha
Ws asked.
"No, Indeed I" was the quick answer.
"I have not read a book that Is, from
ever to cover In tho last four years.
I simply don't have the time for pleas
ure of that sort. No town-dweller can
have any Idea of the work which falls
to a woman' share on an Isolated
tarm,"
According to statistics, 60,000 country
girls are submerged each year In the
maelstroms of largo cities, Into which
they are forced by conditions of drudgery
en farms.
In an address made by Mrs. Nellie
Xedzle Jones, of Auburndale, Wis., she
appealed to bankers to advance money to
farmers wives for washing machines as
readily as they loan money to the farmer
for threshing machines.
"It is not half as hard to stand all day
en a 'wagon, riding from haycock to hay
cock, as It is to stand all day bent over
a washtub," she said. "Because of tho
drudgery which is the lot of the farmer's
wife, the daughters decide to leave the
"home acres' and seek easier, more con
rental employment In the cities.
"A vast army of girls pour Into the
cities every year. Some find their dreams
fulfilled, but many of them-oO.OOO of them
each year-give up the struggle and are

"T"ON'T you sometimes wish that you

asked Billy Robin of Tommy Sparrow one
fne morning.
That I do," replied Tommy heartily
(in spite of the fact that he had never
thought at the subject before).
"Well, then," said BUly, "what shall wo
atT"
That was more than Tommy bargained
fori How did he know where to get
something new to eatT He hadn't even
thought about eating anything different
worms and grain from tbe chicken yard
were enough for him. But. of course, he
,had to say something, He cocked his
basbd'on one side, looked over the garden
thoughtfully, and spied Mr. Garden Toad

"Coffins are the most expensive com
modity sold, yet thousands' of farmers to
day are purchasing them for wives and
children who have broken under the
strain of hard work, lllnourlshmcnt and
lack of proper facilities,
"This is Important from the banker's
viewpoint, because when the farmer's
wife Is given labor-saving appliances. It
means not only that she will llvo longer
and In better health, but that she will
raise more calves and chickens nnd that
means that tho banker's Interest will be
paid mora promptly.
"Another point I have to make In this
plea for the farmer's wife," continued
Mrs. Jones, "Is from the social side. Wo
hear so much about the lack of social
opportunities in farm life. Women on the
farm cannot utilise social opportunities
because they are too worn out at the end
of the day to do anything but sleep. Can
you wonder that tho young people are
leaving tho farms for the city when they
see, by their mother's drudgery, what a
farm Ufo really means?"
The problems of the farmer's wife aro
many and no definite solutions have
yet been offered. That she should have
leisure for the cultivation of her mind
and for the taking of an adequate grip
on affairs that are going on In the great
"outer" world Is a foregono conclusion.
But Just how that leisure Is to become
"un fait accompli" forms the crux of the
matter.
The proper equipping of tho modern
farm household in labor saving devices Is
going to do much towards solving the
problem. Interest aroused
In tho hearts of women
more favorably situated In
life is another factor In
the solution of the diffi
culty. After the necessary
leisure in her life has been
obtained through the In
troduction of labor-saving
devices In household mat
tersthe formation of
clubs, reading clrclssif
bimu.ii social events , ,iind
above all in thn rrntWnir '

prevent that dreadful mental Jtftagnatlon
which Is the only goal towards which at
present the life of tho aveiTage farmer's
wife Is tending. t

CATHOLIC HIGH HAS
ITS 25TH BIRTHDAY
Formal Celebration of Anniver
sary Will Be Deferred Until
Later in Term
The Roman Catholic High School cele
brates today the 23th annlven.vy of its
opening. Tho anniversary Is being ob
served by the students and the alumni,
although tho formal celebration of the
occasion will be deferred until after the
term's work is well under way.
Tho character and date of the formal
anniversary celebration will be determined
at tho September meeting of the board of
trustees. At that time the rector, tho
Rev. Hugh. T. Henry, Lit D., will meet
with the board to decide how the memory
of Thomas E. Cahlll, the founder, shall
be honored.
Following the students' celebration, the
Alumni Association will mark the anni
versary with a banquet, to which will be
invited some of the leading Catholic edu
cators and ecclesiastics In the country.
The committee in charge has been at
work for the past three months complet
ing arrangements for the celebration.
The building now occupied by the school
was erected at a cost of $200,000, which
was only the accumulated Interest on the
original bequest. It is of granite, similar
to that used In City Hall, three stories
In height, with large, well-lighted class
rooms and an astronomical dome. It was
dedicated September 5. 1SS0, and the first
student was admitted three days later.
The provisions of the will of Mr.. Cahlll
do not exclude the attendance of non
Catholics, and many boys not of the faith
havo completed courses there. Religious
training Is a feature of ,the school's cur
riculum. Each hour's class Is begun with
a brief prayer, the Angelus is recited at
neon and Mass Is celebrated once a week
on an altar built by students in the as
sembly hall.

BAD BOYS MADE GOOD
BY WOMAN PRINCIPAL
WITH COMMON SENSE
J
Helen K. Yerkes, of Walton
Building, Has Turned Scores
of Lads From Danger
ous Paths
FAVOR TRUANT SCHOOLS
Jlmmle was a bad boy. His mother
called him "naughty" and other folks said
he was "too lively"! but io Miss Yerkes
he was nothing less than bod.
Defiant, sullen and lacking In the ordi
nary social Instincts, he gave ample
promise of a future career of criminality.
It waa rumored about the neighborhood
that ho had been arrested twice for lar
ceny and that It was only the Interven
tion of a kindly policeman lhat saved
him from commitment to a reformatory.
In every class of which ho had been a
member he had been "the bad apple of
tho barrel" and careful parents refused
to permit their children to associate with
him outside of school hours. Gentle ad
vice was Ineffective, regardless of its
source. An occasional whipping from his
widowed mother terrified him temporarily,
but produced no lasting result.
Miss Yerkes Helen K. Yerkes, princi
pal of the Rudolph S. Walton School,
:8th and Huntingdon streets, tried a dif
ferent plan. She called him to her office
and talked to him In such a manner as
would be employed by a Judge In
sentencing a convicted burglar. There
was no expression of regret over the lad's
moral delinquencies, nor did Miss Yerke's
attempt any "kindness." Jlmmle was told
emphatically and without qualification
that' he was an undesirable citizen in the
school community and that unless he
mended his ways Immediately he would
bo expelled. He was past the nge where
he had to be kept In school because of
tho compulsory attendance act
Jlmmle knew as well as any other boy
knows that the decisions of Miss Yerkes
aro Irrevocable. At the beginning of
the Interview he was indifferent: upon
delivery of Miss Yerkes' ultimatum ha
showed signs of seriousness, but when
dismissed from the office he but Into
tears.
SHE WAS PLEASED
Miss Yerkes was pleased by the phe
nomenon, not because she wanted an op
portunity to show her sympathy, but
rather because the weeping Indicated tho
bov's mental make-up. She decided at
once that Jlmmle was a victim of nerv
ousness, and that an excess of energy
was perhaps responsible for his school
room defect.
Sho knew that his father had been a
victim of alcoholism and that his mother
suffered frequently from hysteria and re
called the complaint of all of Jfmmle's
teachers that '"he won't Bit still." The
combination of these facts satisfied Miss
Yerkes that Jlmmle presented a special
problem and his case was referred to the
public school medical inspector.
Tho physician advised that he be sent
to the country; his suggestion was car
ried out, and through the efforts of Miss
Yerkes, at first unsuccessful, Jlmmle be
came a farm hand. His first employer
discharged htm for Incompetence, the sec
ond for Impudence; but after he was at
work at his third Job for a month, mat
ters went better for Jlmmle. A year ago
he had been pale and wan, played spas
modically and ate little else than sweets.
Now hie cheeks were ruddy, he showed a
fair appetite and, while qe was no more
willing to work than the, average youth,
t nmnlnvAf "r,nnr(i1 nrnpr,aa
WAGES INCREASED.
He received an Increase In wages, and
now divides his pay with his mother.
Once a heavy smoker of cigarettes, he
has abandoned the habit. At the age of
II he was known to drink whisky; at the
ago of IS ho pledged himself to total ab
stinence. Miss Yerkes has no Intention
of urging him to further his education;
but he has voluntarily applied for admis
sion to an agricultural school.
Tho Walton School has no more than
the usual proportion of bad boys. The
averago pupil is as amenable to the
school law as the average adult Is to" the
law of the State. But Miss Yerkes has
attained city wide reputation for her
ability to handle "special" caseu
on these charmini- mn.i. ... ...

days he would get fresh country cream
and plenty of dog biscuits. Any one down
In the 7th Ward will tell you that "Gov
ernor Brumbaugh" lived better than any
dog In that neighborhood. But it's dif
ferent slnco "Bill" Vare wlthdrow. He
Is no longer the pet of Miss Magglo Mur
ray, who lives at 25th and Pine streets.
Well-informed Individuals In the 7th
Ward say that but for Senators Penrose
and McNlchol and other czars of the Re
publican party in Philadelphia, "Governor
Brumbaugh" would still be living on Easy
street. The blame for "Governor Brum
baugh" losing out on the "eats" is placed
on the recent political farce staged by
Penrose, McNlchol, Lano and a few other
gentlemen.
To chronicle the tribulations of "Gov
ernor Brumbaugh" carefully. It Is neces
sary first of all to mention something
about his history. He was presented to
Miss Murray by an old Irishman who
now rests in Holy Cross Cemetery. For
moro than a year he lived at her home.
When he first came around to the Mur
ray house he was known as "Gyp." Miss
Murray Is an admirer of the principles of
the Republican party. When Doctor
Brumbaugh was elected Governor she
named him "Governor Brumbaugh."
Miss Murray Is a "politicianer." She
used that word today to describe herself.
She says she controls 14 votes In the 7th
Ward, nnd that she can swing every one
or tnose votes to any party she wishes.
Congressman Vare was her choice for
Mayor.
The dog's fate was sealed when Con
gressman Vare retired as a nominee.
When Governor Brumbaugh's connection
with the Smith candidacy was exposed
Miss Murray became indignant. She
didn't change the dog's name. She de
cided to punish him more severely.
Two days after Penrose and his ad
visers staged their political farce "Gov
ernor Brumbaugh" went without dog bis
cuit, pure cream and French chops. Miss
Murray's method of punishing the dog
was simple. She simply turned him over
to a neighbor. Miss Murray said today
that "Governor Brumbaugh" is now
lucky if he can find a meat bone.
