Mghly Important to sit a certain way
trhlle she Is knitting. A high rocking

has decided Is tho bent helpmate to
turning out a lot of work. She al
ways leans back. Second, she ellml'
atcs all lost motion. That Is. she
Jknlts the old-tlmo Continental way.
Vid doesn't move her left hand. Third.
And really most Important, she has
Systematized her work. She goes at
Vt like a business nnd knits much as a
tfrl runs a. typewriter on bchcdulo.
Ifter time Is divided between her home
nd her work .for the soldier boys,

tgmall family, her husband, a. son anil

WI11CN you haxe divided off this
class of women who knit and the
intermediary classes who have less
time on their hands, you have left tliJ1
great class of working women whose,
only time to knit Is when they "take it
with them." In the name of the many
worthy ones who do this braoiy in
the street cars in face of the doubt
lug eyes of men. I think It might
well be said that hero at least Is
sonio knitting done In public that
Is not done for show. I know many
employed women whoso' every sensi
bility shrank from knitting in public
when it llrsl became the custom to
do so. Then they weighed the bigness
of this thing of keeping our lighters
warm and tho littleness of raring what
people think about It when you know
the end Justifies the means. The result
Is they knit.
It Is true many women fall to knit
in their own homes nnd invariably do
so In public. This Is undoubtedly show.
But when, we i-ay show let us qualify
the word There Is a large class of I
women who deserve the benefit of the
doubt.

Schoolgirl Asks Questions

Dear Madam T am, a elrl of fifteen rears
of are and in the elchlh II trade of tho
elementary school. There Is a boy in the
same class. I care for htm. but do not
how him. hut he shows he cares for in..
The other night I ivaa In the theatre with
to alrl friends of mine, lie came In and
sat down In the front row, away from us.
Ha kept looklnr up at me and smlllnr. II
is a very nice boy to talk to and very socia
ble. Durlnx the second performance he called
mr friends and ma to io alt with him. I
didn't co. Do you think It was riant or

"Hut ho doesn't look at nil like that,"
Mrs. Harry I.owrnhure, who was one of

with the assurance of onu who had got

"He Is very handsome." she coitlnued
in the nuthorllatlxn voice of one who
has served liy standing and waiting out
side nf tho White House, "hut he is. nh.
so stem, so very stertu lie doesn't look
half as mild as that."
"And Just think, lie's cean-shaen," a
timid llttio woman who peered over her
pince-nez said admiringly "a great man
like that would he, wouldn't he?"
"He needs a little more Jaw," a man
observed after having carefully viewed
tho portrait from all angles. "It doesn't
salesman who Is nlioul In al. the . cliul

jolly jack tar's coinim-iiliuy mi nnui
he considered a Sargent defection was,
"If you Ret a icpulallon for gittiiig Ul

lilm a mean, prissy mouth, which the
President certainly hasn't got." lie
added, and an earnest lettetcarrlcr.
whose stick bulged with iiiidyllwrcil mall

nodded emphatic approval.
In all tliern wasn't a grr-.it deal of
regret expressed at tho fact that the
portrait, after tho exhibition, is to leae
the country for Hie Imorald Isle, whither
It will he placed in the National nai
lery of Ireland In Dublin. Tlic OO.uOO
for It was given io tho British P.cd ('toss
by the late Hugh Lane, who went down
on the I.usltanl.i. The portrait was to

terfere!, and so the gallery which re
ceived tlie money dccidid. should Wilson
and Sargent prove willing, lo have a
portrait of "the greatest President of
Hie I'nlted States by tho greatest por
tialt painter."
Judging from the opinions epreised
at the Academy, however, a greater por
trait of the President ought to be
painted.

have to concern themselves with the I look like the man tnat I saw riding
representation of the Man of the Hour .back from Hi Capitol after the last
as he was Feen by one with a reputation
for skilled analysts In portraiture, rather
than for hero-worshiping.
It Is Just that fact that gets .under
the skin of most of the onlookers. They
want a Wilson who looks handsome
and forceful and sagacious and good
with a touch of deviltry, too, of course.
They are given instead a Wilson who Is
tired and serious and far too benign
and "professorial."
It was a motley crowd that stood
before the portrait on one of the "free"
days.
"Daddy, who's the man over there
that everybody's looking at, the man In
Inauguration.'
At this point an academic opinion was .
rendered by I. d ward S. Coates, former
president ot the Academy, who ap
proached with J. JloLure Hamilton,
himself a portrait painter of renown and
the winner of one of this year's awards,
"It does not show Wilson, the great
man, the great leader." Jlr. Coates said
Judicially: "tho Itockefcller portrait la
better painting."
The watchful waiting posture that
Sargent has been pleased to Immortalize
the President In also came In for Its bit
of censure.

appreciate as never before that only by co- .
operating with one another cart the problem
be solved. N ,
Prompt answering of the telephone is a big
factor. If a clerk is asked to "get Mr. Jones
of Smith & Co. on the telephone" it's only fair
to Jones that he not be kept waiting when ho
artswers. Moreover, when a call comes from
him, he property expects the same ready
response that he is particular to make when
telephone "callers" come to his office;
Prompt telephone service depends not on the
operator alone. If she does her best and a con
sidex;ate co-operation is not forthcoming, the
maximum service effectiveness .cannot be
realized.
