W011/B1r lf±t TROCSERS.
They Are Now a Very Consomme Sight
in England.
The wholesale withdrawal of men
from the commercial and industrial
ranks has resulted in a huge substl-
tutlon of female labor for the pur-
pose of maintaining the industrial
output of the country. Many bun -
deeds of women are training to be-
come milkers and dairy bands. In
Scotland and Northumberland this
sort of work 1s being regularly un-
dertaken by women, while In Devon-
shire and other counties milking is
being done even by young girls be-
fore they go to sebool.
Women are at the lathe, In over-
all and cap, in the powder abed,
working 12 -hour shifts on the motor
busses or fashioning metal• timber.
and leather; carting; driving. and
distributing. Before the war it used
to be said that every Jack bad cis
trade. The same can now be said of
-every Jill. .
Women In trousers are becoming
more and more numerous. They are
donning them in greater numbere
every day. in order to cope wltb,work
w here the skirt Is found to be a hin-
drance. • They do not dislike the
change, and it cannot be said to de-
tract In any way from their native
grate and carriage.
Napoleon, It seems. was a great be-
liever in arraying wgmen in mascu-
line attire in time of war. -Dives
does not make the man," says the
proverb; but Napoleon found that It
made the woman, and that putting
her into trousers made a world of
difference to tier work and strength.
Reliable English opinion is inclin-
ed to encourage women to adopt mas-
culine attire for what, atter all•
ought to be man's work, convinced
that. so drea.ed, woman wiJI give
as good an account of her self as ber
absent mate.
Many thousands of women and
girls are serving the nation as muni-
tion workers. The Minitgry of Mual-
tions considers every cane te'orougb-
ly, placing the workers not only ac-
cording to industrial fitness and
home locality. but also with thought
for the lives 'women have previously
led and are likely to lead after tbe
ear. Many of the women enemted'fn
munition work are art students.
musicians, embroideresses - girls
who had been engaged in the fine
arta, and hope to be again. Once
dratted into a factory, the workers
are specially looked atter by the Min-
istry as to hours, accommodation and
rate of payment. The wages are 15 a
week as a minimum, and tit workers
are soon able to earn 315 to 320 s
week by piece work.
The Ministry of Munitions tit• es-
tablished nearly seventy free tra,a:rg
centres throughout the country. and
at these centres keno -es are. peeper -
"ed for the lighter varietiea of moni-
tion work. In the newly -organised
air department, in the various gov-
ernment offices, In banks. insurance
Daces, and commercial establish-
ments, thousands of young women
are now struggling with stack. of of-
ficial books, ledgers,'and omcial do-
cumeats.
A Place of Vantage.
There is one place within tbe pre-
cincts of the British House of Com-
mons where the ordinary per'soa
would never think of looking for
"strangers." Mr. Augustine BirrelI
recently spoke facetiously of the re-
porters under the table at a Cabinet
meeting. but reporter's might be liter-
ally "under tee table" of the House
of Commons without anyone know-
ing about it. For the House of Com-
mons table is not -a solid piece of
furniture." though Mr. Disraeli once
desehbed it as sueb.
it is, in fact. not a table at all, but
a slab of wood supported, not by
"legs," but by lattice work. A well-
known black -and -white artist, ones
illustrious on the stag of "Punch,"
has related how be sat out a debate
within tee "table." being directed
thereto by the House of Commons ea -
'Inver one evening when the Press
Gallery was full. Mr Harry Paredes
tells how he felt disposed to tittle
the legs of legislators with his pen-
cil, and how he' beard, not merely the
debate, but the asides and whispers
of the occupants nn the two frost
benches. which must have been mock
