[OF INTEREST TO
I Girls In The World of Business
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Temptation exists mostly for the
people who look for it or invite it!
This is not the hard-hearted statement
of one who fails to sympathize with
the troubles of her own sex—rather it
Is ft generalization to which there are
indeed exceptions.
All through the world. In every walk
of life, there are unscrupulous and de
signing men. The girl who lives shel
tered and protected in her own home
meets with temptation. The girl who
wos down to business meets it. too.
1™ ; in both cases one of two things is
true—the girl is unfortunate in the
men with whom she comes in contact
or blunders on her own part invite
catastrophe.
There are plenty of men In the world
who are beasts of prey rather than
human beings. From them neither
maid, wife nor widow is quite safe.
But the average man is a sane, de
cent person, with plenty of kindly in
stincts and a great deal of chivalry.
Such a man respects nobody more than
a self-respecting working girl who In
vites neither impudence nor famil
iarity. A good deal of the talk about
the "wolf In sheep's clothing," who is
the average employer, is hysterical and
quite untrue.
The Proper Way
If the girl who goes down to busi
ness goes clad in an armor of dignified
seif-respect, of efficient determination
to do her work and do It well, and of
faith in the fact that the world is built
on the principle of let live,"
' -she Is likely to get on famously and
to find herself quite undisturbed in her
desire to do her work.
Kut does the average girl go thus
equipped? Doesn't she rather have a
little sneaking feeling that her sex is
an asset —and one she might as well
make the most of? Doesn't she dress
to be attractive so that even office boys
will gallantly sharpen pencils and run
errands for her?
Doesn't she roll her big blue eyes at
"the boss" when she wants to get a
few extra afternoon hours off? Doesn't
she invite admiration because she is a
pretty girl rather than because she Is
an efficient worker?
If she does these things. Is she jus
tified In posing as a persecuted martyr
when scrme man takes her at her own
valuation and treats her as a forward

coquette rather than as an efficient
business woman?
Mot all girls do go down to business
with the idea that it is a superior sort
of matrimonii- agency or a place
where feminine charm is to make
feminine work a far easier thing than
it would be if the employers were
women.
Not all men imagine that the busi
ness girl is an adventuress who Is look
ing for trouble or a shy little creature
who Is fair game for any man. But
there are men who take this un
chivalrous attitude toward women just
aa there are women who warrant men
in taking it.
The Temptations
The temptations of a business girl
are due directly to two things—the
weakness in the armor of some silly
■ girls who cause more dignified ones to
be misjudged, and the wickedness In
the natures of some men which a dig
nified girl by meeting and meeting well
may possibly be able to lessen in slight
degree.
The girl who goes down to business
willing to do her work and not to be a
; cry-baby and try to take advantage of
i her femininity to get her oft from any
. difficulties will meet with the protec
tion of every decent man with whom
•fehe comes In contact.
That girl makes it easier for every
other girl in the business world! The
men who have met her and who know
1 what a "white, honest little thing" she
. is, remember her and treat all other
working women with a respect due to
the germ of an idea that "white little
thing" engendered.
There is a fine chivalry in work for
i women. Women owe It to one another
, to uphold it. Every girl who behaves
i herself with dignity, who does her
work well and who neither looks for
i trouble nor becomes panicky when she
i sees actual signs of it, keeps that
chivalry white and fine.
And whrv V moets with difficulty
she will find there are plenty of splen
did men read- to answer her with pro
tection and to give her the "benefit of
the doubt."
It does not pay for the business girl
to look for trouble. It is beneath con
tempt for her to invite It. If she does
neither of the two, the difficulties that
chance to beset her will be fairly easy
to handle.

FALL CARE AND MANAGEMENT
OF THE TURKEY FLOCK
Efficiency Versus Neglect in
Maintaining Health and;
Converting Them Into
Fancy Stock
By myra kelsey oox
Experienced Poultrywoman and Writer
The importance of an early round- j
tip In view of the Foil routine of fat
tening, impresses the turkey-raiser.
Neglect subtracts from profits. The
commonest |>erils to health lie in
orchards and drainage ditches. Suc
cess with funcy stock means uninter
rupted feeding. Small-boned breeds
reach market conditions more
promptly at cost of weight.
It is not so generally recognized,
nevertheless a fact —that one of the
crucial phases of the turkey's de
velopment begins In October. The
climatic change is strenuous. At the
same time Nature withdraws from
them her abundant summer provision.
To weather the change, they need
renewed attention. Too many raisers
linger in the lap of laxity and fail to
provide forthe Increasing needs of the
October flock. These are they who
note with disappointment the tardy
conditioning of their birds while
energetic neighbors are making an
early market and pocketing the pro
ceeds.
Every day in the turkey's life
counts. Inattention to feeding retards
marketing day. They reach their goal
eventually, but seldom as "best sell
ers." This Is the logical time for dis
ease to assail, vermin to operate and
growth to flag. All birds that reach
this period, having withstood the as
saults of early enemies, are the "sur
vival of the fittest.' Experience shows
that If permitted to continue thus,
like Topsy just "to grow," during Oc-
the single concert and for the whole
course.
Patrons of these concerts will be
pleased to learn that the entrance iu
the Chestnut Street Hall has been
widened and made entirely sare ana
that the hall lias now more exits than
any other ilk the city.
Pasiiuale Amato, who will give the
opening: concert,'*is the emperor o£ bari
tones, a title conferred upon him by
common coflsent of critics who have
heard him. Amato made his debut as
Germont in "La Traviata," and at once
has career was assured in the minds 01
his friends. But for two years the
young artist struggled desperately to
earn a living for his wife and their
ilrst-born baby. And if you ask Amanto
iie will admit there were days when he j
knew what it was to suffer from
hunger; when only the loyalty and su
preme courage of his wife made it pos
sible for him to push on. In lUU2 oppor
tunity touched him on his shoulder ana
since then his rise has been so rapid
that to-day there is no baritone in the
world o famous as he.
Amato will be accompanied by David
Hochsteln, a noted violinist, and at the
piano will be Maurice La Farge, concert
master of the Metropolitan Opera Com
pany's orchestra.
Hochstein is reckoned as one of the
coming violinists of his time and his
appearance alone, those who have heard
him say, would be worth the price ask
ed for the admission.
The big audience at the Regent yes
terday had the opportunity of enjoying
to the utraott the
Regent—-Chaplin comicalities and the
and lllllle Burke antics of Charlie
Chaplin in his latest
farcical comedy, "The Pawnshop,"
which shows the comedian in his most
characteristic actions, gestures and sui
prising tricks. Same will be shown for
the last time to-day.
In addition to Chaplin there is a sec
ond attractive star in Billie Burke, ap-
I pearing in the sixteenth chapter of
"Gloria's Romance." Gloria proves to
be relentless in her pursuit of the mys
terious murderer. In this instalment,
"A Modern Pirate," Gloria, who had es
caped from the barge, returns home
and enlists the aid of her father, Dr.
Royce and the Stafford yacht and fol
lows the fugitive.
Marguerite Clark, herself the incar
nation of the elf spirit, is the star in
the charming fairy store, "Little Lacry
Eileen," to be presented the first two
days of next week.

tober and November, their number
gradually decreases, as ono by one
! they drop from the ranks.
1 Turkeys are now on the home
stretch. Each moment of the short
ening days must be utilized. They
must be helped to a quick get-away
on their road marketward. Each day
lost postpones their shipment, and de
lays are costly. To make the most
of one's flock, the turkeys must be
taken In hand early in the Fall. The
normal May-hatched turk begins Sep
tember with more plumage than flesh,
relatively speaking. His long legs
have galloped over long distances
mainly In the interests of feathers and
muscle. Thereafter his greater de
velopment tends to round out the
angles to build a tempting table-fowl.
The draught upon the bird's vitality
made by feathering is only half
realized. It acounts for the scanty
fund of reserve strength In birds
under three months of age. No won
der that they succumb so easily to
various complaints. ,
An ever increasing gap yawns be
tween the increasing needs of the tur
keys' maturing bodies and the auto
matic cessation of the summer's food
supply. Careless disregard of this
fact is one of the numerous leaks of
the turkey crop. Experienced grow
ers allow their flocks to register no
difference by beginning early to fill the
deficiency by feeding with an eye to
making candidates for the Thanks
giving shipment. This Is the choicest
market as a rule. It can be depended
upon to be insufficiently supplied
with select birds and ready to give
good prices for plump fowls. The
advantage of early clearance of one's
flock, or of Its best members is
obvious. At any rate, neglect at the
beginning of Fall may delay ship
ment till beyond Christmas, since
growth proceeds slowly in ( cold weath
er. Prolonged feeding diminishes
profits. Efficiency In marketing tur
keys means shipping within a reason
able period after fattening begins.
MINERS TO ASK
SEVEN-HOUR DAY
[Continued From First Page]
at the miners' day 'celebration here
to-day. Such a move is necessary he
said. In order to conserve the econ
omic and social welfare of members
of the miners' organization and results
from the increase in the use of min
ing machines. \
| "Having established the eight-hour
| day universally throughout the juris
! diction of our union and likewise the
mine-run system we can well afford
to turn our attention in the coming
wage conferences to a further reduc
tion in the hours of labor for in my
opinion such a move is necessary if we
are to conserve the economic and so
cial welfare of our vast membership,"
President White declared. "This is
made almost essential because of the
increased use and Introduction of ma
chines. The records show there are
more machines used in coal mining
now than at any time in our history.
So widespread has become their use
that pick mining in many districts has
become a lost art.
"There were in use in the coal mines
of the United States in 1913, 16,378
machines producing 242,421,713 tons
of cooal. In 1914 this number was
increased to 16,507 machinea-produc
ing 218,399,287 tons of coal.
"Despite the depression that pre
vailed in 1914, reducing the total out
put of the mines, the machines in op
eration Increased as these figures
show. lam therefore impressed with
the great fact that if we prepare our
movement for the inauguration of the
cardinal reform in our coming wage
conferences we will be able to secure
it and its benefits will rebound greatly
to the advancement of our people.
This will result in an eight-hour day
from bank to bank, or a seven-hour
day on the present basis."
President White reviewed the pro
gress made by the miners' union, de
claring that the men by their col
lective efforts have raised themselves
practically from the condition of serf
dom to that "of respect in the eyes of
the whole community."
Refers to Great Strikes
The persecution of our people in
some sections where our organization
has engaged in Industrial strife is
without parallel," he added. "Par
ticularly do I refer to the great strikes
of Colorado, West Virginia and cer
tain sections of Pennsylvania. But the
steady entry of our movement into
these citadels of opposition is bear
ing fruit and the opposition to the
establishment of our union is gradu
ally yielding to the enlightening in
fluences of the organization And wage
increases and reduction in hours of
labor are being accomplished in the
interest of these deserving fellow
workers."
Thousands of miners from all parts
of eastern Ohio attended the cele
bration and participated In a parade
which preceded the address of Presi-
White - Other speakers were
William Green, international secre
tary and treasurer of the United Mine
Workers of America; John Walker
president of the Illinois State Feder
