Here is a stoty
that will make you
young again
TWO inimitably funny boys and Florence, a little girl
as diabolically naughty, as fascinatingly unexpected as
the immortal Penrod ... If you want to know how a
small town can be uprooted devastated swept from its
moorings by the simple, outspoken publication of what
two small boys overheard and saw then read Booth
Tarkington's big new serial, "The Oriole," in the June Pictorial
Review.
The town of North End had been going along peacefully.
Neighbors gossiped, young men "paid attention" to young
ladies, young ladies "encouraged" young men in the com
fortable, regular way. And then, all at once a bomb!
Those two incorrigible boys, Herbert Illingsworth At
water, Jr., and his friend Henry Rooter, decided to start a
newspaper. Then enter Florence! You will laugh as no story
ever made you laugh before. It is Booth Tarkington at his
best recreating, with a master hand, the magic and soar kle
of your own adventures when you were fourteen. , ;

WORK that women carit
pe hired to do !
t
Do you know how seven Ameri
can cities are taking the drudgery
out of housework?
THE biggest single industry in America the
most important and yet the most backward
Housework!
Eighteen million women' working at it! but never
any attempt to regulate hours, wages, conditions of
work!
Aren't you interested in what is being done to
change this? Wouldn't you like to know how the
drudgery can be taken out of your housework?
The intelligent wife of a college professor decided
to keep a chart of the time absolutely necessary
for her to devote to her household of five members.
It came to 16 hours of labor a day! '
No wonder women can't be hired to do this work!
Read how New York City, Washington, St. Louis,
Chicago, Philadelphia, Princeton and Montclair, N.J.,
are solving this problem. Read Katherine Glover's
remarkable article in the June Pictorial Review.
TEACHER, $65 a
month. Colored bar
ber, $30 a week.
These two advertisements
recently appeared, one be
low the other, in a New
York newspaper. Is it any
wonder that our educational
system is in its present ap
palling condition ?
In Washington, D. C, a
teacher begins at $750 ayear
less than $15 aweek. After
rw3nr.y-.five years she
may rise as high as $1300!
In Chicago it is worse.
The minimum salary is $600,
and a teacher must work
seventeen years to get
$1000!
In twenty-three states the
average teacher gets less
than $400 a year !
A real estate agent in
Washington, D. C, hung
out a sign, "No apartments
available ' for teachers."
When asked about it, he said
that he had no apartments
on his list that teachers
could afford.
A high school teacher in
Illinois tried to persuade one
of hisboys who hadleftschool
to work in a mine, that he
oughtto finish his education.
The boy replied, "No, sir.
Iammakingmore money
without an education
thanyou are making with
one."
Read Ida Clyde Clarke's

-article packed with pitiful,
outrageous facts, about
teachers' salaries. The
second in Pictorial Review's
great new series on Ameri
can education.
