DIRECTOR OF CIVILIAN

REHABILITATION AIDS ' OHIO'S UNFORTUNATE (By Associated Press) j COLUMBUS, O.. Nov. 19. Human hope and unfailing courage are the two atributes of iife that come most under the observation of W. F. Shaw, uhose official title is director of civilian rehabilitation service, of the stale department of education. In front of Shaw's desk in the state house here, is a big steel file case. One section of that case is crammed with raanilla folders, prosaic to thumb and ordinary to look at, but between the leaves of any of the folders one might pick up, on the "onion skin" office copy, there will be a story o? dogged perservance in the face of tre mendous odds: of blind men at 50 turning away from a profitless life, and learning to work like a child learns it's A-B-C'c; of legless men, throwing away a trade that took painful years to learn, and starting all over again in a different field; of husbands and wives working at anything, anywhere, to keep "the children together." Has Theory.

Shaw is aiding them on the theory that "the only helpless cripple is the deliberate shirker." That's the fact his department trys to drive home. The administration in Ohio of the federal law for the re-training of persons disabled in industry and in civil ian life," started Aug. 1 last. Thi3 year, with Ohio putting a dollar to ach one advanced by the government, there will be $109,420 available for th work. Training and placing in positions constitutes the scope of the state and federal endeavor to make cripple:! persons "self-supporting and self-respecting." Aid is extended to those not younger than 16 years of age. and to persons either crippled at birth, or injured in industry or civilian life. The training is paid for by the department; there is no cost to those receiving It.

TRAFFIC CONGESTION IN BOSTON CAUSED BY FASHION PARADE

Tiy Associated Treys) BOSTON, Nov. 19. Vehicle traffic congestion in fashionable shopping thoroughfares is more a matter of curiosity than of business, the police traffic squad has reported to the street ommissloner. Teamsters and chauffeurs use these thoroughfares not so much because they need to be there as to see the passing show, the report says. The conclusion that some drivers make long detours in order to join the stream of vehicle that flows past the shops, with their currents of smartly-attired women moving in and out or pausing to gaze at show windows, was based by the traffic squad

women now face the necessity of maintaining the familys usual standard of living upon a greatly reduced income. This is a task obviously requiring much skill and careful thought. It can not be successfully performed in haphazzard fashion. The welfara of the family, and in large partthe stability of the nation, depend upon the ability of its women folk to spend money judiciously. In recognition of this fact, several New York banks are preparing to open savings departments in charge of experts, who will assist depositors in the wise disbursement of their in

comes. Advice on all household matters will be furnished, from the re spective merits of cuts of beef to the proper amount of Willie's weekly allowance. Household budgets, cut and arranged to suit the needs of individual families, also will be provided. In order to train experts for these new bank positions, the department of finance of the New York university has opened a course known as "Management of Personal Income." in which a large number of business women are enrolled. It is taught bv Miss Elizabeth Mallam Bohn, a well known finance lecturer and household management expert. "Women are more and more being called upon to give financial counsel to their own sex," said Professor Bohn, in discussing the new course.

"America stands today in the position in which all of her economic problems must be Eolved through thrift. Pioneers in this field must teach her sons and daughters the full and solemn truth of this fact, and unless

they gain a deep and sincere appreciation of the necessity of thrift, we cannot hope to hold the position we occupy .as flag bearer of the nations. "Living within one's means is not enough. This simply would keep the wolf from the door for the time being. The business that simply comes out even in this way at the end of the year quickly would be termed u failure. Keep a Budget. "Every woman should keep a budget, whether she is a home maker or a business woman. The first item in this budget should be savings. I figure that a man with a family of five earning a salary of ?200 a month should put awuy at least 7 per cent

neer home-savings expert not long ago, a man whose income averaged J800 a month complained that his family ws unable to save anything and that it often ran into debt. The home savings expert went over his list of household expenses and immediately saw that a large part of his salary was going to servents, five being employed to do the work in a comparatively small household. She advised him to discharge those five and employ two in their place, which effected a saving of over $200 a month. Women Ignorant of Money. According to this heme savings expert, the ignorance of women on f i nancial matters sometimes is appalling. In one case in which she was personally interested, for example, a young woman acquaintance from a

small town in the northern part of

the state, came to

bride and wont to live in an attractive apartment on Riverside Drive. Shortly afterwards, her husband was compelled to go to Canada on a business trip. The home savings expert chanced to pay her first call on the couple the day after he had departed, and found the young bride sobbing violently. "Come, now, don't cry," soothed the good lady, putting a maternal arm around the girl. "Of course, you will miss him " "I shan't ," replied the bride, crying harder than ever. "I shan't miss him

a bit. He nas aone a ternme tn'ng. and I will never, never forgive him." By degrees, the home savings expert learned from the tearful btide that her husband had gone away without leaving her any money. The situation appeared serious. "I .eminded him just before he left," explained the young wife." and he said he had left a check for me on the desk. He did leave the check, but he neglected to fill it out. Oh!" (here

and then burst" out laughing.

"You don't deserve such a husband, my dear," she declared. "You really should be ashamed of yourself. Here the good man has left you a perfectly nice signed check and trusted you to till in the amount yourself." On the whole, though, this womai. believes, women of the simple doll type are growing very rare. The majority of modern -women, she says, take great pride in their capability, show much skill in managing their finances, and seldom allow themselves to get the worst of a bargain. Considering that they have never been specially trained for buying goods, they are remarkably successful in th? management of their household business, but this innate ability cannot

wholly compensate for lack of train- j

ing. The most comfortable, contented homes are those where thrift prevails and the family finances are systematically distributed by means of a budget.
