Many Cases Home and Career f or Women on Account of Economic Problems Regardless of Arguments Against Such Situations Hundreds of Women Are Accomplishing the Feat—Only the Strength of the Individuals Tested. By MARTHA ALLEN. Love and a career can both be at tained If the effort la made for them. The right sort of woman can hold a job and make a home for a hus band too, contrary to many theories set forth nnd ideas expounded in such bonks as, "Tills Freedom." Some of the high executives In the busi ness world are women nnd these very women have attractive homes with contented husbands. It ail depends upon Ihe individuals who are to make the home and upon certain condi tions. The task is a hard one for the woman. Such a condition may not be ideal but it la quite prevalent. A career nr a home may he neglected just a little on either side but not enough to wreck the happiness of companionship. A true partnership can never be broken up even under trying circumstances. If the husband and wife take a keen interest in earh other's work there need be a» fear of the safety of the home. Training children, forming the domf^tic end of the mar riage-partnership are the normnl things for a woman to do, but eco nomic conditions do not always per mit. Perhaps there is a mother to ^^Sjp'port or a small brother to put through school. Why should the al tar of sacrifice be piled high? One sacrifice is enough. Happiness can he found in one way while sacrifice is made in the other. Conditions pro vide an answer to each problem. After all, making a favorite salad for the husband or backing a special BENO’S of Council Bluffs Says to You: ►—Prominent billboards display this: “Beno’s!

Home life becomes solid upon complete understanding and real love. An example of this is the home life of Louise Homer, the great musician. There are eoine "opera singers who have let temperament make them care more for fame and applause than for a real home. Again, It All depends upon the Individual. E. F. S.: At the theater the man gives the theater checks to the usher, then allows the woman with him to pass first down the aisle. There really is no stamp language, but certain persons have attached some Import ance to placing stamps in various po sitions on letters. It is in poor taste and Is very troublesome to postal em ployes. Some think that a stamp In the upper left hand corner Is a mes sage, "Goodby, sweetheart.” Iowa Ann: There is no certain ex pression it seems for comment asked for after minutes of a meeting are read before an organization. The pres blent or chairman in chars* usually says: "Are there any corrections to the minutes read—if not, they stand approved.” Reader: Pink is the color used for boy babies and blue for girls. But it doesn't seem appropriate to use a color for birth announcement cards. White engraved cards are in better taste. These colors for babies arc only used for ribbons on their dresses or bonnets. » - I-oyola Club Cards. The Loyola club will entertain Fri day at 2:30 at cards in their church hnll.

Ander- j son are the heads of committees. Adele Garrison “My Husband’s Love” Dr. Bralthwaite Brought N>ws of the Operation. "We'd love to have you come with us,” I ventured, when Alfred, Leila, Dicky and I had reached the street door of the hospital where little Mrs. Durkee awaited the morrow’* ordeal of a surgical operation. "I know you would,” Alfred re turned, "but we must be as close to the hospital as we can get for the next day or two. We have rooms already engaged at that little hotel on the corner.” "Whither I shall soon descend upon you with that bag of Leila's I left at the apartment,” Dicky lnterrposed. "Come, Madge, let's beat It." A Restless Night. "Suppose you beat It,” Alfred sug gested, "and leave Madge with us until you get It?” "As a hostage, eh?” Dicky laughed. "Well, I suppose my reputation does Justify such a slam. Don’t worry, Madge, I'll redeem you within the half hour." He was as good ss his word. In deed It was five minutes less than the time named when he appeared at the door of the tiny suite—sitting room, bedroom and bath—which Al fred had secured. We remained hut a minute or two afterward, only wait ing to assent to Alfred s promise that we meet them at the hospital early the next morning. "That poor gink looks as If he had a ticket to the heated regions and no return check,” Dicky cortimented, as we waited on the corner for a taxi "It's selfish, but I certainly am glad I'm not In his shoes. Suppose It were mother there tonight or you”—the last word with an explosiveness which gave me a comforting sense of his real affection for me, in spite of his Peter Pan wanderings. But I made him no reply save a tremulous smile. I could not have spoken without tears, for my nerves, keyed up for hours, were perilously near snapping, and I was glad Indeed that Dicky was too tired—or too ab sorbed In his thoughts—either to talk or to notice my nervousness.

But It was after mldnlght before I lost mjself In slum ber, and the rest of the night was e succession of fitful doses, shot through with fantastic, contorted dreams. Unrefreslied, with a throbbing head and jerky nerves, I awakened early, and after preparing a break fast, which I could only pretend to eat In order to deceive Dicky, I went with him to the hospital. Purposely we reached there earlier than the hour Alfred had named. In order that Leila might not be left to herself In the reception room even for a few minutes. She came In with her husband a few minutes later, and the relief upon Alfred's face royally rewarded us for the effort. “You people are the salt of the earth," he said fervently. "I won't be long, sweetheart, ' he turned to Leila. "You know they're only go ing to let me etay a few minutes." "Never mind me, dear," she an swered with a brave attempt to hide the trembling of her lips. "I shall be all right, now that Madge is here." Waiting for the News. Dicky walked with Alfred as far as the elevator, and then came back to us for the tense quarter of an hour which elapsed before Alfred, pallid, visibly shaken, but holding himself In an Iron grip, entered the reception room. "Are they-" Leila began trem ulously. "They have Just taken her Into the operating room," he answered quietly. "Did Dr. Bralthwalte eay how long?" Dicky queried. "He doesn't know, but it will be nearly an hour, at beat, before they can tell us anything--unless—" Dicky did not permit nim to nmsn that sentence. "Well, then.” he said, “there Isn’t the slightest us* of all of us sitting around here. Madge, I'll call a limousine and you and Leila drive around for an hour. You've prob ably got some shopping or some thing that you can do. I'll stay here with* Alf, and we can walk around the block and smoke. What do you say?” “That It's a splendid scheme,” I returned. "Come, Leila, let's look for'those handkerchiefs your mother-in-law wished us to purchase.” She agreed listlessly, but she gave me no trouble on the drive, and when we returned to the hospital recep tion room, we found Dr. Braithwaite, visibly worn, with Dicky and Alfred on either side of him, and were Just In time to hear him say: “She's all right. Operation a suc cess, heart In fine condition, things not as bad as I feared, although they were bad enough, but you have every right to be hopeful as to the future. And you”—to Alfred— "probably will be able to see her for a minule or two this afternoon— Madge! quick!” I did not need the warning. I had been watching Leila closely and my arms caught her fragile figure as she swooned against me.

On their skill, integrity and faithfulness depends the success of our business and we appre ciate it. No cab company in this country ever achieved enduring prosperity until the “human equation," as represented by the men at the wheel, had been solved. The answer was not found in rules and regulations, but in “a iquare deal for the worker.” The public is entitled to many things from the right kind of cab system. It is personal sendee of the most exacting nature and the YELLOW CAB driver i» our most impor tant and only contact with the cab patron. The men who pioneered the way into the modem cab business were sympathetic and broad minded. Rules were abolished in favor of “intelligent co-operation.” “Musts” and “Don’t” went down before a sincere desire by every employee to serve. We have frankly copied those pioneers. We have prof ited by their experience—now the basis of every modem YELLOW CAB system in the United States. We would rather imi tate well than originate poorly. And so we like to tell you about our drivers, for we are honestly proud of them. We have spent - time and money in gathering together a group of high-class men whose happiness and prosperity is as much our concern Tis the success of this business.
