as possible tor women at home as io:

women in business. There is some

talk aliout the 'parasitic' woman -the

woman who accepts her living with

many luxuries thrown .a

nothing in return. Perhaps she ex-

ists but not, we believe, in great or

alarming numbers. The fact is the

most women work, either at home o

outside. One of the great difference!

in the kind of work women do is th

kind of pay they get. Wage-earning

women get actual money to put li

their pockets, and Ihcre Is an intox-

ication about the possession of your

own funds that Is not quite like any

thing else. As one business Woman

expressed it: 'You can buy tine cloth i ing and go hungry, or buy delieat

food and go naked, or give your mon- ey away and go both hungry and nak-

ed if ,.ou like. You are. in your sma'l

way, a god. I don't know that there

is nothing better than earning your

own living; what I do know is that

pay day is a good day. even if it's

all owing.'

"The average woman who works at

home Is still In the stage of exchange

and barter with no medium of ex-

change to measure values with.

There are 6omc parts of the country

I where you may pay "in kind;' where

you may offer to the peddler who 1 comes to your door eggs In exchange ! for calico. The trouble with tin

home worker is that no matter how

many eggs she ofTors she gets the

same amount of calico. She may

work hard and long and wisely, she

a woman named Mrs. White who.

with her husband. William, used to

live on a farm and go to church in

gave up life on tho farm and bought

i then the church bells have rung in

I vain, so far as the Whites are con

jcerned, and following is Mrs. White's

explanation:

"We meant to continue as regular

attendants at the M. K. church, but

town life is different from our old

life on the farm. There we were

hunrrry for society and welcomed the

opportunity that the Sunday morn -

ing service gave; there, too, our time

w-as largely our own. Now Sunday

morning is the only time we can

M'KOM. MEM THE HEED.

(Raleign News and Observer)

Strong men are always tho need

when legislation, state or national

is to be undorlaken, and no legis-

lative body comes Into existence but

that there Is a call for men of bralnB

experience, wisdom.

There is a rumor, so it is learned

from the Salisbury Post, that ex-

Governor Thomas J. Jarvis hi to be

a member of the next Ueneral As-

sembly. In giving voice to this ru-

mor the Post well says: "We trust

that he will he, and many more of

like character and experience, for If

there ever was a time when the

state need's such men in the assem-

bly it will be next year. We hope that

every county in the state will send

such a man as Governor JarvisU

near a Jarvis as it possesses, for

they will be needed. The Post has

more than once mentioned this mat-

ter und we are going to insist that

Rowan send men of big brains and

wide experienceso ought every oth-

er county."

If there is any possibility that Pitt

county can induce Governor Jarvis

to represent it, that would be a lino

thing for the state, for the disting-

uished ex-governor libs up to the re-

quirements of brains, experience, wis-

dom. As a member of the state's

legislative body he would be able to

he of great service to the state. He

is a man in whom all North Caro- lina has confidence for he haa dem-

onstrated in a long life of service

that he seeks the best for the State,

The next general assembly will need

ill it the ablest men to be found m

the state, and nil the counties should

select the best men to be found. The

host man. let It be said, will not al-

ways be the man who seeks the po-

sition, but in each county then

should be a drafting of the men whose

fitness has been shown. If we read the signs aright there will he need-
