iSuccessFUL Women by EDITH MOWIARTy
This is the first article of the new series, by Miss Morality, in which she tells true stories of women who have succeeded in the business world by their own efforts. Others will follow. Editor.
Celia Oshinsky was born In Poland and came to this country with her parents when she was a tiny baby. The family established itself In Cincinnati end it was there that Celia received her schooling. She went three years to a Palish school and about two years to a public school, but she had to stay home so often to take care of her five small brothers and sisters that all her five years only amounted to about three. At the age when most little girls are beginning to go to dancing school and struggle with Latin verbs Celia started out to earn her share for the Oshinsky family. She acted as the one and only servant in a large and very ordinary American family by the name of Miller. Although CeWn rmiM
remember nothing of the old country.
u was not until she entered the Miller's household that 6he became thoroughly American. Earned $3 Per Week. At home she Still snnkp Tnisli arA
she still clung to the foreign customs of her family, but the families went out, and with these odd bits of work she earned almost her usual three dollars every week. She finished her course in half theregular time by applying herself diligently and then because she wanted to be more than a mere dressmaker, she continued her evening work and she went on to two other schools and at the end of two years she had become an expert cutter, riving a certain part of her time to careful studying of each one of these operations.
WOMAN LAWYER LOOKS AFTER FINANCES OF DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE
She had many offers from tailors to act as assistant cutter or fitter.
but she did not want to do that. She
explained that she wanted to have a
larger field. She finally borrowed enough money to rent a small room in a private house and there she started in business for herself. Mrs. Miller, of course, was one of her first customers, and one of her best boosters. All of Mrs. Miller's friends and relatives were soon wearing clothes made by Miss Celia Oshinsky. And it was not long before the room was much too small and Inadequate. Celia did not know what to do. She knew what she wanted to do, but it looked like such a big undertaking. She told Mr. Miller about it and asked him to advise her about the business end of the matter. Enlarges Quarters. He did, and the result wa6 that the next month found Celia Oshinsky in a 6uite of three rooms in one of the most fashionable suburban districts about Cincinnati. There was a waiting room finished in gray wicker and cretonne with soft lamps and all the latest fashion books on the table. There was a fitting room with all the most modern equipment, and then there was the workroom, and in it there were two machines and three
girls busily stitching, ripping and cutting while Celia herself was busy ans
wering the telephone, taking measure
ments and keeping her books. That
was her start, and she says now that
her only mistake was that she did not
call herself Madame Oshinsky on the
gold leaf lettering on the door.
Today she is but thirty years old.
Her establishment is twice its original
size. She never has less than fifteen girls working for her and she is sending her younger brother and sister through college, and she has bought her aged father a little farm In the country.

of money. She lives In a swell house
and from what I hear they "put on style." Now what I want to know is what kind of a book I should get, and where I should get it, so that I will not get mixed up in the use of the different forks and spoons and won't pull any boners when it comes to table etiquette. Please answer this real soon as I want to have time to learn all that is in the book. HELEN. You can go to a book shop and ask for a book on etiquette. This will aid you on matters of all kinds. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am 16 years old. Am I too young to go machine riding with my friend who is the same age. Are we too young to
attend picture shows together? How j late Fhould a girl 18 years old stay I out at night? Is she too young to po to ancther town near with her friend
and another couple in a machine for the day? Is she too young to attend evening parties with her friend once in a while? BLUE EYES. I do not think you are too young if your friend is a careful driver and you are not out late in the evening. You are not too young to go to picture shows. A girl 18 years o!d is supposed to have Judgment of her own about staying out late. If she is at the theatre or a party she usually cannot return as early as if she were walking or riding. In the latter cases she should be at home at 10 o'clock. Young people often motor to nearby towns for picnic parties during the ('ay. it is quite permissible. It is right that she should go out to evening parties. That is part of a young girl's good time.

Thousands of women are finding- the ideal preserving syrup is a blend of 4 Karo (Red Label) with i sugar instead of all sugar.
