Men

By MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS

Did you ever ride in a street car! behind a couple of pompous looking “men of affairs?” Didn't you chuckle to yourself at their loud conversation about

thousand dollars,” and so forth? If they were watching the trend of affairs they might have been] more careful. For some woman overhearing them might have been their boss, or their banker. | No fooling! There's scarcely a profession that Indianapolis women | haven't entered. Their careers—ac- | cording to the membership list of the Business and Professional Women's Club range from a mansize job with Uncle Sam to operating a wholesale storage company.

Women Leave Kitchens

Let's pick six names from the hat just to what some of these Business and Professional Club members do when they leave their homes and kitchens! Miss Sally Butler is first in feminine seniority at the Postoffice. Miss Lucille Maze performs double duty as dental secretary and apart- | ment house manager. Mrs. Ruth Krause turns out professional beauticians by the daily dozens. Mrs. Samuel Lewis Shank does a good job of storing truck loads of furniture in the Shank Warehouse. Mrs. Nell C. Warren sees that 500 hungry | mouths are fed every week day noon. It's far from being a man's world, when you consider the sidelights to their jobs,

Cures Grievances

Miss Butler handles enough details every day in the rural department of the Postoffice to turn a man gray haired overnight. She's been doing it for 19 years now and is a regular diplomat in handling the customers. She contacts ap-

But they don't tarry long when she gets busy checking and correcting the addresses! Life is sort of a three-ring circus for Miss Maze. She is personal secretary to a dental surgeon and manages three apartment houses. as weil. When she isn't making appointments for somebody's bridge work she is selecting new draperies for the Hanning Court Apartment, where she is resident manager. "I'm as busy as the proverbial bee,” she said. And 10 years in the same position is as good a record as any man cculd have.

Talks Self Out of Job

Mrs. Shank considers her busines: as a sort of “glorified housekeeping” Job. It takes a woman's under- | standing and tact to handle some | of the situations which confront the firm. She kept a man from walking out on his wife, one time. He was | ready to store the family furniture | and go his sorrowful way. But she hasty de- . and herself out of some business! “I wouldn't consider going back to the life of tea parties and bridge luncheons after these 10 vears in business,” Mrs. Shank said. Untrained girls, under Mrs. Ruth

| Krause's tutelage, become business

women in the beautician's field. She followed her girlhood inclination to establish a beauty school and Cen-! tral Beauty College of 15 vears’ standing is the result. Many a college professor would be rattled by 5 girls in one class but Mrs. Krause doesn’t bat an eye Supervision of daily marketing. menu planning. food cooking and Serving is in a day's work for Mrs. Nell Warren at the Eli Lilly & Co. cafeteria. If the proof of the pudding is in the eating, then Mrs. Warren is doing a topnotch Job. Doctor, lawyer, merchant. chief vou say?
