Jacob Schneider was never so disappointed in hi3 life as when fate decided that Mb only child should be a girl instead of a boy. Although he idolized his small daughter he could not help saying to her now and then: "Oh, if you could only grow up to be a fine tailor like your father and I could put Schneider & Son, Ladies' Tailors, on the door of my shop."

Little Emily would promise that she

Jacob said no he would not mind, but be would like to have her stay with him another year and if she did he would let her keep his books and do just the things that she liked best about tailoring. Emily was pleased at this and so she remained with her

After six months , when she had been made head designer, however, h-i began to be proud of her and was toon bragging about his talented Emily and taking all of the credit ta himself. It has been two years now since Emily left her father's little shop, where she failed to make a tailor, to become a designer in the 6uit factory. She now designs all the collars for all the garments made by the firm and in addition to that she determines the colors in which the different styles of garments shall be made up. '

put Schneider & Schneider on the shop and that it would be just as nice. The two lived all alone in the small apartment above the little tailor shop. Emily's mother had died when she was a baby and when she grew old enough she kept house for her father, but until then Jacob Schneider was both mother and father to Emily and nurse and housekeeper as well as a ladies tailor. The little tailor shop which was located in one of the small business sections which one always finds near the outskirts of any large city did a flourishing business and so Jacob decided that he would send Emily to high school after she finished grammar school. When Emily finished high school ehe wanted to enter her father's shop

as an apprentice, but he would not hear toit. He tried to talk her Into going to business college, but Emily Insisted that" she was going to make

good her childish promise to be a tailor. Her father finally consented, but he advised her to go to a dressmaking school first to learn the elementary things about the trade. Tailoring Dull Work. Emily remained at the school but a few months and then she left to work for her father. It was hard at first because Jacob Schneider believed in perfection and he expected his daughter to be more perfect than any of his other help. But Emily did not. progress very fast. She could do all of the different

thought she would and after a suit or coat was designed and planned and cut out she lost all interest in the rest of Jhe work. She hated the finishing and that was what she usually had to do. The buttons and buttonholes, the bound seams, the faced collars and cuffs all bad to be done and it was such close and fine work that Emily began to wish that she had gone to business school. Choosing the styles and buying the materials she really enjoyed and nothing pleased her more than to have her father call her into the front ot the shop to help scitip customer choose the material, lining or style for her new suit.
