'Here Is a Poet Who Finds Romance in the Rey-Tapping's of Economically StucK Up Stenographers Simon Barr Says That the Typist Will Realize the Beauty About Her Only When She Real izes Her Power in tl\e Business World. Hour after hour she rattles at the ki With head bent low ind furtive, smiling lips, Flind to the world that through her ribbon slips. Dreaming gir!-dreams, reliving memories.

That, though he tinkers are working for you and thf her pages will be clenn and correct, h( thoughts are 'way, 'way off, sometime down in the shipping office where s bi giant with blue eyes is heaving boxe: 1 sometimes home where the mother i making over last year's skirt into tin year's blouse, sometimes far off i foreign courts or coral strands or ol ! just anywhere where there is ronvinc ! or novelty or adventure. For mechan' \ cal and efficient and businesslike a 1 she is, the stenographer is dreamini dreams over that typewriter, thinkini ; long, long thoughts behind her bnske ? of pnpeis, seeing visions quite beyoni ? e walls and file boxes. Mr. Simon Harr, one of the editori of "The Municipal .Tournai," und. . these things about the rsce o! who take notes and write letters ail day long, and he wrote the above poem. We wondered how anybody who wasn't a stenographer herself, who didn't bor i row money to go through business col? lege, who didn't scrimp and scrape to ! live on $8.60 a week, v. ho didn't buj I sample shoes and marked down hats ilrd, and therefore cheap, wear we wondcied how he could un? derstand. So we went and asked him "How did you know, and why the .rapher? l)o you think she huc less beauty in her life and that she is less conscious of what there is there than any other class, perhaps?" "Ves. 1 will admit that there are no particularly striking things done or written to-day that point out to her its beauty.

"Hut then, does her employe], makes more and lives an easier life h see any beauty in his busi Iness?" Mr. Ban w;,^ questioned. i "No, no more than the st?nographe who i? typical of the vast majoritj of people for two reasons: one is eco nomie and one psychological.

There i? th* glamour of the unattainable, and ro manee to most people has alway? meant fiction storie?; or scandals ol the royal courts or ancient myths, People think these things in spite ol the realist novelists and the few real? istic poets, But then, the effect ol even several hundred sonnet? on the i'vernge stenographer or her employer is very ? nail, "When a girl works at a job she detests in onier to make $10 a week to help support the family until ?he ran escape by getting married, such a ?,'irl can't see the wonderful magic in the industrial world which she is help? ing. And when her employer says, 'Misf Smith, take this/ she isn't going to hear a poem in hi? sometimes un grammatical drawl, even if there is one. Work i? a makeshift. She in going to get married. The yesterday going up I'm Hudson with 'Him' is more im? portant than to-day's making out bills. Typist! Economically Stuck I'p. "But the fact that the stenographer economically happy doesn't pre her from being economically ?-tuck up.' She has a profession nota job. She work? with a pen not with a machine, She isn't in a factory. She is, therefore, above the factory girl, and looks down on her. And that is the reason why the economic con? dition of the stenographer will not be improved for n long time." "How does that follow?" "Becau >? the stenographer is above Joining a union above uniting. She hears from the soapboxer, the news? paper, that the shirtwaist makers are Simon Barr, an editor of "The Municipal Journal" and proponent of typewriter romance.

But Miss White is also weary ol , calendars and bookmarks. Where on< ! mother has hB(l half a dozen she ha: had hundreds. She manages to smile however, in spite of the clutter and ir spite of the obvious monotony through a curious trick of the mind which it would be w-ell for Genevieve'a mother and other mothers to learn. The trick is this: Instead of dealing with cal? endars and bookmarks, she fixes her mind upon the efforts of the tots, sh? sees trial and tribulation, she sees 1 wonder and experiment, where the rest of us see only crude imitations of tulips or apple blossoms. Notwithstanding the high rentals we have to pay it ought to be possible for every mother to keep each child ens of struggle and conquest foi I time at least. For nothing is more ! important to the child than that his meagre and unsuccessful attempts at I ;;i- material surrounding should receive generous encouragement. ! And while much is gained by having -ome one stand by and cheer him when he falters, that is not enough. The product, poor though it be, is the sym? bol of hh struggle; it is the embodi? ment of an idea, an inspiration, and de ' serves the courtesy of serious and dig? nified attention from parents and other i lders. The calendar is as worthy of a place on the wall as anything you can hu-, at the store, for by hqaioring it you teach the child that his efforts are not ? !. As for tarte in calend?is. leave that to the years. of course it is no? nccessarj * play all of the child's crea ioi ? 01 to r! the home into an industrial museum It is. in fact, the latest tro? phy that carries the greatest interest, and the latest may be made to displace its predecessor, each effor' thus receiv? ing its due share of attention and ap? preciation. Where there are several | children it should be pos-,ble to pro-? . -ige paper envelopes and boxes In which these early treasures may be kept. "Rus> Work." Every mother knows that young chil? dren can lie a nuisanee and in the way just when they are trying to help with some "work." The number of peas that the baby can shell or the area that the child can sweep will contribute little to lightening the day's work. But the value of the contribution is not to be ? red thus. It is to be measured in good will, in application and in the satisfaction that comes or should come from having made a worthy ef? fort at doing something useful. We should therefore not belittle the achievement or make the child feel that i il assistance is worthless. The child works in the spirit of the ?rtist, He la not seekinc material re? wards; he wants the satisfaction of doing something that has meaning and iti appreciation. Without these he will .?'her a shirker, shun? ning all ttT..rt, or a perfunctory crtnd. laboring under compulsion of ope kind or another. It is therefore necessary "My mother does not uunt me to bother h*r any more with the thing* that I make. , "The children anticipated the joy of ? ? >, giving. not only that opportunities be fur ? ! for doing various kinds oi 1 work, but that the ?irst awkward at? tempts be appreciated in a way that ' will lead to further effort. And this ? is just as true of attempts at singing or invention invention of a song or story, for example a? it is of a". at.making some object or drawing that others may handle or exhibit. Criticises, Too. While this doctrine of appreciation does not permit in to belitt child's efforts, it still lea to help the child with criticisms CaleU | lated to enable him to improve his 1 work. But we should call attention to i such defects only as he is in a posi | tion to remedy himself, and without I too much effort. If the doll's dn too Ion,", it's a simple anatter to cut it down. But if it's too short we ? that it's a very nice dress, and think we'll make the m x; one a little lqnger The repeated emphasis on defer design or execution may have th feet of improving the child'? taste or judgment; but they are more likely tc discourage all effort. A child that sees too clearly the shortcomings of his efforts will refuse to do anything at all. This was the case with four-year-old Herbert, v. sense of form u ,< so far ahead of hi muscular control that he could get no I satisfaction out of th? paper stars he cut out himself, an 1 ?o refused, after <ne or two attempt?, to trv again.

All during their return journey the bubbled over with good nature nr. could not refrain from chatterm about their good luck. In fact, s jolly was their party that most of th other pasfengers in the railroad coac which was conveying the youngster back to their former haunts turne their seats over and rode backwan in order to watch the gambols of th children of fortune. Most of the time they were bobbin up and down on the seats and pranc ing hither and thither in their end o the car, while they compared note.? Note comparing was highly necessarj because they had been scattered dur ing the two weeks of their stay il Bountiful Land. "You can't guess what My Lad' give me," piped one enthusiastic, i ungrammatical, young miss to a com panion. "Hair ribbon?" guessed the compan? ion, with an eye on an expansive white bow on the questioner's crown. "No; I had that." with a curl of the lip that indicated disdain for anything so trivial. "Candy?" "Nope; new shoes!" And with this the beaming miss elevated a patent leather clad foot until it was within an inch of the other's nose. Then it was the other's turn. "Gueaa what My Lady gave me?" "Apples?" "Nope." "Comb?" "Aw, whaddya think? I got a comb." "I give up. What V "This dress! And another one I got in me box. Wait'll I'll show it to yez."
