Katharine Holland Brown. « ] t yrX name If May Isabel1Carna- Iy l ban. I am eighteen .years ■ - old,-and I work In a big fac­ tory In Michigan. More than lour hundred other glrla work there too, I don't aim to tell yog about our jobs. You can read about our work in the labor department reports, Biit I do aim to tell you about our Big Sister and of the things she has done for us. “To begin with, our factory town isn’t S town a t all. It’s a huge barn of buildings stuck down in the country nineteen miles from nowhere. There Is a railroad siding, a station the size of a dry goods box, seven farmhouses and .one general store 'and postofUce Combined—it's pretty near as big as n ' hot tamale stand. And that’s all. No Main street, no banks nor stores, no ice-cream parlors, .not one solitary movie show, in all those nineteen miles. Lonesome? It’s the ragged edge of desolatloh, that’s what it Is. “I was one of the first, carload of forty girls that was shipped, up from Chicago. The factory was swarming with workmen putting in the machin-. •ery, and we girls couldn’t begin work for a day or so, so we began hunting places to eat and sleep. That was a trifle that the employment folks hadn’t thought of. The workmen were sleep­ ing and eating in the cars that had brought them there, backed on the siding. Our only chance for beds and .food was with those seven farmhouses, so we marched straight to the farmers’ wives and asked for board and room. Farmers? Wives Hospitable.’ “I will say that thoaewomen werekind and hospitable. They fixed it up be­ tween them to feed us forty girls, and they'gave us good food too. But for rooms, that -was the question, They could each spare one room. That meant aleep'five or six. in a room. But right then'along came the' boss of the factory and told us the machinery was ready and he’d expect us girls to work double shifts, night and day. “He wanted to make use of every minute, you see. But that gave uS our chance as to sleeping. We fixed it up with the farm folks that we’d" work double .shifts and sleep double shifts too. “So we planned I t Three girls would use a room from eight a t night till six the next morning. Then they’d hustle over to the factory, and the ^htee glrla who’d been working all night would take the room and sleep tilt afternoon. It‘ wasn’t any luxuri­ ous slumber, believe me. T?he farm women" bad so few sheets and pillow cases that moat of us went without And towels wefe scarce as diamonds on blackberry bushes. As to so ap - well, the general store kept yellow bar soap, that klqd that ! b stf'full of rosin you could use it to calk a ship, But we made out till the next three car­ loads of girls came rolling in, Then we went ’moot distracted. Those poor girls had to sleep In tents and in the cars that the workmen had abandoned by this time, and they were lucky if they got a straw tick and a blataket. By this time it had turned raw cold, and inaybe you know what late au­ tumn nights in Michigan feel like,' To cap the climax the farm folks cut down on-food, and for a week It was potatoes and-beans and mighty few beans a t th a t Along Game a Mirada. “Bub right When we were about ready to quit our jobs and beat it for home, along came a miracle. Two quiet, businesslike women climbed down from the eaatbound train one morning. With them came eight work­ men, a carload of scantling and tar paper, another carload of cots and blanket* and pillows and sheets and towels—brand new blankets and beds —think of the glory of that!—and bushels of dishes and rolls of oilcloth and enough burlap to carpet the coun-' try, Toll wdn’t believe me ifhea I tell you that in ten days their workmen had a scantllnr-nnd-tnr-paper shack put up* and* burlap tacked over the walls, and the Y. W. C. A. secretary and her helper had set up board tables and coffee fettles and were serving us the grandest hot lunches every day. And back behind the burlap screens were set those rows of clean cots, with enough cover to keep you warm the coldest night th a t’ever blew, and a towel apieca for every single girl. Do you wonder that we all felt, as one girl put it, T il wager the Fritz-Carle- ton has nothing on this l* “Who were those Women? Why, 1 . W. a 1 . secretaries, of course. I’d think you’d know that without being told. All over the country wherever we girls have pitched in to make aero­ plane cloth of Overalls or munitions or canned goods you'll find a Y. W. C. A. secretary working harder than any­ body else to make the girls comfort- ' able and to keep them happy and well. Sometimes they haven’t money enough to get all that we really need. But al­ ways they Stretch every cent to make It do Us level best for us. Do you won­ der that we girt workers have learned to Ml- the Y, W, C, A. mir Big Sister —the very best Big l-Msier of all? The Indian Crow. Persons who have traveled In the Orient have much that Is interesting Md amusing to say about the Indian crow. This canny black creature IS full of pranks; he makes much trouble, ibnt also calls forth much laughter. OptliWatlo Thought.
