Ixpert workers in demand ftnct Need for Thoee Who Are Capable and Willing to Do Special Task* "What we need in this country is expert workers," says a woman who makes smart hats for smart people and who says business would be very food if she could get people to work for her. "I hear It all along the line," she continued. "They say there is a great need of employment, but it can't \ J be so, for people don't want to work, f/ I want expert finishers and I can't get them. An advertisement won't bring them. It won't bring anyone. They \ wont even come to see what you are willing to pay for them. Where are j \ they? I don't know. Perhaps the girls t prefer to ride up and down in elevaJj tors. M "There were some I knew who went ! ^ doling the war to work on gas masks, bot they can't be doing that now, and I don't know where they are. They made good money, and perhaps they are still spending it I want some models that I am having made in New York, but I have been waiting weeks and I can't get them. I suppose the others are having the same trouble that I am. I talked with a Jeweler the other day and he told me he could 4 use twenty expert workmen if he could let them. He can't do it He has L found one old man, hnd that is the heat he can do. What are we going to do? People don't want to do any careful, expert work. They want to do something that is quick and easy and make money doing it."?Brooklyn Ragle. * JAP WOMEN DEMAND MUCH " Their Ideal Man Would Have to Be Something Above the Ordinary Run of Humanity. \ . ' ; ? The Japanese magazine Chouquovo Oohano (virtuous woman) Invited its Japanese women readers to send in their opinions on what constitutes an ideal husband. Here are the thirteen virtues they demanded of a Jap S "hubby: r He should not be greedy. *v He should not spend too much time ^primping." He should have a manly appearance, f He should not be too familiar with Mother women. He should express himself clearly. He should make prompt decisiona | Hp should have high ideals. | He should never show himself in the fkitchen. 4 He should never criticize the coifr fure or the gowns of his wife or any othor women. ! He should not bore his wife by tell-* - " 2. mg ? He should not drink too much. * He should not be a dude. ! { 7 He should not be too jealous. I i The symposium aroused the humor of" the Japanese males, who sent in . some suggestions of what constitutes ^an Ideal wife. They paraphrased the 1 I last of the thirteen points and all .'agreed that "she should not be too lilSJealeos." j Invisible War Vessels. Owing to the enormous range and 1 accuracy of modern naval guns it is jthighly important for small war craft 4 which depend upon speed rather than *armor plate to weather the attacks of Ithe enemy to render themselves as invisible as possible. Heretofore a darkfgray paint has been considered the best ~ . j color to apply to a war vessel. Now \ experiments are being made with va\rieties of colors. Ideas are being bor^>:^iowed from the mimicry of nature. W: }We.find certain animals coated with spotted fur and other ones upon the nature of their environment. In ex-' l I actly the same1 way certain naval authorities are trying to render torpedo boats invisible by painting wavy stripes on them, which at great distance are scarcely distinguishable from the natural wave formation of the ocean's surface. Bidding for Wtne Tanks. Wooden wine tanks maae useless m Calif *nia by prohibition still can be counted in the asset column of their owners. Buyers from Argentina, France and Italy, are already bidding for well-seasoned oak tanks. Redwood tanks are not as popular, but < may be purchased by the foreign buy-1 ere. .H. Romera-Day of Buenos Aires is 1 the first foreign buyer in the field, says an exchange. He Is trying to obtain options before Pierre Martens of Paris , and M. Colini of Rome arrive in Call- 1 fornia. Only 4,000 of the 14,000 wine tanks In the state are of oak. It is | said Mr. Romera-Day Is authorized to buy a shipload of knocked-down tanks for shipment to his country. Norway's Building in London. The British dominions now have great buildings In London, where their activity is centralized and proclaimed to the world. So far no foreign nation has an establishment of this kind, but I i i Norway has acquired victory nuuso, Charing Cross, where Norwegian activity In London will be centralized. The sum paid for the building and site is $1,125,000, the whole amount being raised by publicr subscription in Norway. United States Wireless Stations. The government shore wireless sta-' tions numbered 135 on June 30, 191S, of which eighty-eight were in continental United States, twenty in Alaska, nineteen In the Philippines, i three in the canal zone, two In Hawaii ^ and oiro each In Porto Rico, Guam # and Samoa.

More than sixty-five cities and towns in Liie Palmetto State will observe "North and South Caroliri'. Day" on December 18 when saving societies and thrift clubs will be organized in the schools, and the principals and teachers will be urged to begin immediately the use of the Text Books ol Thrift, which are being sent free of 1 charge by the War Loan Organization * of the Fifth Federal Reserve District. 1 This day will also be observed in the schools of North Carolina and < already a friendly rivalry has devel- < joped between the two states as to I which will make the better record. , j Director William R. Timmons, oi ] the education division, of the War Loan Organization of this district was recently in South Carolina visiting the school superintendents and principals and completing plans for observance of the day. He was assisted by Miss Katherine Wicker and Miss Lois Ervih, field directors for South Carolina, both of whom are still here. It is the desire of the War Loan Organization to have an active savings society or thrift club in every ( room or grade in the school in South j Carolina. Recent records compiled in Wash- ; ington, D. C., show that from the first \ of this year to the first of November $989,230.63 was invested in Treasury ( Savings Certificates, War Savings Stamps and Thrift Stamps in South Carolina. For October the total ex- ; ceeded $8,000, being nearly $2,000 more than the September figure. Among the South Carolina cities | and towns in which "North and South , Carolina Day" will be observed are: < Abbeville, Aiken, Allendale, Bamberg, Barnwell, Batesburg, Beaufort, Bel-ton, ; Bennettsville, Blshopvllle, Blackville, Bnanchville, Brunson, Camden, Oarlisle, Chesterfield, Cheraw, Clio, Clinton, Clover, Conway, Darlington, Denmark, Dillon, Easley, Edgefield.

Certificates of Achievement have been engraved and one will he given to every South Carolina pupil as soon as he buys, out of his savings, a Wai Saving Stamp. A larger certificate has been prepared for those rooms Or grades or which every pupil is a member of a saving society or club. Indications are that "North and South Carolina Day" wlil be unusually successful here, particularly In view of the indorsement of the savings movement recently given by the South Carolina Teachers' Association which adopted resolutions urging 'that the teaching of thrift and the sale of government savings stamps be given a definite and permanent place in the schools of the state and that the president of the association he authorized to appoint a committee of seven to make definite plans for the teaching of thrift and savings in the schools. WOMEN IN THIS STATE JOINING THRIFT ARMY. Desirous of enlisting the organized aid of every woman's club and society in South Carolina in the fight being ! waged against the cost of living, uncle Sam is sending out tne can 10 housewives of this county to join the thrift and savings movement that is rapidly gaining momentum throughout this state as elsewhere. Already the larger cities of the state are hard at work. At Columbia, for instance, a meeting was recently called of representatives of 'every woman's club in town. Thrift chairmen were appointed in every organization present, these chairmen to constitute a sort of central clearing house with a president elected from their own -number. Greenville, Char- i leston, Sumter. Rock Hill and others are working along similar lines. I Each club or society sets apart a certain number of meetings, or a nart of each meeting, for the study | X-"?- - ? _ and discussion of thrift under the general direction of the thrift chairman I and her committee. These programs ' include the study of leaflets prepared by the government on such subjects as budget making, avoidance of was*s ' in food, the care of clothing, how to i have fuel and kindred matters. I And the United States government is srtronglv behind them in their ef. j forts. Headquarters for the work in this district are at the War Loan Or- , ganlzation, Richmond. Virginia. Mrs, | Eudora Ramsay Richardson, herself a South Carolinian, is director for th? woman's division, and will be glad to hear from any women interested in , .oining the thrift movement. She will send to those writing for it, any of the government thrift literature, including the budget and the Ten Lessons in Thrift. A chatty weekly letter detail- , ing the doings of other women in the district, will also be mailed to those who would like to keep in touch with ( what, is going on in the feminine world * thrift. j' I Those Who Care for something a little different, some:hing NEW AND EXCLUSIVE, will ind it by coming to us.
