If servants are taken to the country for the summer they are given car fare back to the city for the one day off in the week. If the country home is far from the station a motor car must take them to the train, and meet them. Otherwise, they refuse to go to the country. Every one Is crying "Help, help," an(J the cry grows louder, for servants who came here from "over there" have saved money, and, having heard little from their kiVisfolk during the war, or believing their kinsfolk need their help, are putting their money in their stockings and going back. And few, almost none, are coming over. A girl walked into an employment office. So far as could be learned she wasn't a good cook, and her bedmaking induced insomnia.

To begin with, the housekeeper in the Morgan family, who employs all the help except the chef and chauffeur, wouldn't look at a reference given by the wife of a man in moderate circumstances. No, indeed. The reference must come from one on the same social level as the Morgan family, and if a girl gave references of her work and character from every one in her church and neighborhood, including the cashier of a bank whose wife had employed her, the housekeeper would turn her down. For other reasons those of the Morgan class are particular. There always is the danger of getting some one who might kidnap the heir, or throw a bomb, or steal a 15,000,000 necklace. There are four in the Morgan family, and as no nursemaid for one child will do anything for the other child, that means a separate staff of servants for each child, in addition to the separate staff for the master and mis

Spiceland Academy's Commission Renewed The commission of the Spiceland Academy, a school maintained by the Friends church at Spic-land, has been renewed by the state board of education, according to word received by the school's officials. The academy has been in operation since 1869, and there is no other school in the township. To help maintain the institution, the township last year paid lor tho transfer of pupils. The state board of accounts held the action illegal and the state board of education then revoked the commission. This year's graduating class of 22 faced the position of having diplomas from the academy which were not accredited with any college or university in the state. The re-issuing of the commission places the 6chool in good standing with the colleges and universities.
