Society Women Earn
Twenty Cents an Hour
in Button Factory
"We're ihort on buttons," an
nounced Mrs. Eva Wallace at Salva
tion Army headquarters Thursday aft
ernoon. There was consternation
among the. workers. "Did anyone
ever known of a campaign that didn't
run short of buttons in the rush
hour?" someone asked.
There was only one thing to do,
Mrs. Wallace called the button fac
tory on the telephone.
,'We're short of buttonswhat?
You're short of help?" Deeper con
sternation at hearquarters. Inquiry
brought forth the fact that experi
enced help was not necessary.
"Who'll volunteer to make but
tons?" Mrs. G. A. Meyer, Mrs. T. L.
Davis, Mrs. Harry Tukey and Miss
lieulah Sharp responded. I hey were
rushed to the factory in an automobile
end were soon busily employed snap
ping the pins into tne salvation Army
buttons. They worked steadily for
several hours and received 20 cent an
hour and several sore thumbs. But
their 20 cents an hour meant several
hundred dollars an hour to the Sal
vation Army, as the buttons sold for
$1 apiece.
During a lull in pin snapping, the
women learned how celluloid buttons
are made. Two young women were
swiftly operating pressing and stamp
ing machines. "I should think youd
set brain fever doing that all day,"
remarked one of the women.
'We would if we had an brains.
was the quick reply.

B'nai B'rith woman's auxiliary, at

company and $25 from both T. P.

of the store had read so much about
the delicious doughnuts being sold
at the dueout and had become so
doughnut hungry that the cook in the
tea room was finally persuaded to
bake a batch, which were sold to the
girls for the Salvation Army.

GLADYS CALLAHAN.
Life on the bounding billows is
what Miss Gladys Callahan, one of
the six yeomanettes at the naval re
cruiting orhce in (Jniaha, is longing
for. Working for the government
and being permitted to wear a natty
blue uniform with gold buttons on it
and a beautifully embroidered emblem
on the left sleeve, are not sufficient
honor to Miss Callahan, who wants
to drill just like the men and go on
a big battleship as secretary to an
officer.
"But they won't take women on
battleships any more and I suppose
I will have to stick around on the
land," she said. "It wouldn't be
worth while only that I know I am
releasing a man to fight," she added.
Not all the yeomanettes are as
ambitious as Miss Callahan, whose
black eyes snap with excitement
when she thinks of the wonderful
possibilities of being a member of the
crew of a real war vessel.
"Seasick Well, I'd get over k. As
for submarines, if the boys take
chances with them I guess I could,
too."

$500. George Brandeis was the first
to present his personal check for $100.
Mrs. N. P. Fell collected $265 in
the Bee building booth Thursday.

fC! ORGET me not!" cry the
J- children in war-swept Bel
gium, and as a tangible reminder of
our duty to these small supplicants the
tiny blue flower will be used as a sym
bol of this form of service. A little
cluster of these starry blossoms tied
to tiny cards with the Belgium' colors
make the most attractive of place
cards.
Miss May Mahoney, who has
charge of arrangements for the Bel
gian Baby day drive, which will be
launched next Saturday, has appoint
ed committees for each of the country
clubs, who will request the hostesses
who are entertaining . that day to use
these cards on their dinner tables.
The luncheon tables, too, will be gay
with their bunches of blue forget-me-nots,
and no doubt the ingenious
hostesses will plan centerpieces to
carry out the blue and white color
scheme and so make their parties real
Belgian Baby day affairs.
The women who have been appoint
ed by Miss Mahoney at the different
clubs included Mrs. Edward Slater,
for the Field club; Mrs. Lawrence
Brinker, at Country club; Mrs. Har
vev Tewell. for Carter Lake: Mra. A.
