SAYS GOODBYE
TO HIRED GIRL
Bj Fred Bailer
(United Press stttt correspondent)
' WASHINGTON (UP) labor-aavlng
machines haw displaced tn. Hired
(lrl In the typical American Tillage
borne, a nation-wide aurvey by the
department of agriculture thowi.
"There now are statistics to show
that James Whltcomb Riley's chil
dren's classlo 'our hired girl.' no
longer portrays the typical In Amer
ican Tillage life," the department
said.
Ahe waa the family factotum who
lived In the household, cooked such
good things to eat that the children
loitered about her kitchen table until
ahe chased them away with som
such refrain as:
"Clear out of my way; there's 'time
for work and time for play I Take
your dough and run, child, run, or
I cant get no cooking doner
In reaching its conclusion the de
partment studied "household help"
tables of 8,434 white non-relief fam
ilies In 140 typical villages In ell
sections of the country.
"The Importance of 'our hired girl'
has decreased as services of com
mercial bakeries and laundries have
Increased, aa canneries and garment
factories have grown, and as labor
saving devtcea have come Into the
home," Dr. Louise Stanley, home eco
nomics director who supervised the
survey,, said.
"Then, too," she added, "many a
homemaker would rather spend ifor
a car and widen her social contacts
than to spend for a maid If this
means only leisure to sit on the front'
porch and watch the neighbors ride
by"
The New England and Pacific re
gions were lowest In percentage of
families having hired help and In
average amount spent. In the former
only one In 33 families employed
help. The average of all families was
M a year.'
On the Pacific ooast the percentage
ef such fsmllles ranged from four
In the low Income bracket to 45 In
she highest. Hired help for the house
wife waa slightly more prevalent in
Berth oentral, middle Atlantic, plains
and mountain states.
The southeastern vlllsge housewife,
In contrast to her northern and west
ern sisters, stood a very good chance
ef having help, Among 2.093 lam
tUe Interviewed household help
ranged from 16 percent In the low
Income bracket S250-J499 a year)
is 100 percent In the highest (5,000-W.9BB).

Uphold Service Traditions
"Wagner Butts lookout Is on an
other fire. I sent Wagner Oap fire
man' to the Wagner Butte station to
be on lookout. Headquarters fire
man Is on his way to a class B
firs with CCO men.
"Ranger Fort and assistant Albert
Young have also left for the fire.
They think they'll hsvs It trenched
before the CCC's get there. My
daughter. Prances, and the fireman's
wife, Mrs. Eugens Tower, are going
to a spot fire about 400 yards from
the class B blase.
"I called another crew of COC men
from the camp for standby at the
station. If snythlng more happens,
I'll let you know."
An hour later more had happened.
Mrs. Port telephoned again:
"The girls returned and reported
that Ranger Port and the protective
assistant had the lower fire trenched
but It waa not safe and the upper
fire was still biasing but COC men
are fighting It. I sent Foreman Mills
with his crew to the fire. That Is
the situation up to now."
Tea, wives of forest service officers
hsve their own tradition of service.
They don't get psld for their work,
but that does not matter. They love
the forests.
Wives of United States forest ser
vice officers have a tradition all'
their own. It parallels the public
service tradition of the foresters
themselves.
Wives of the foresters lore the
forests too. They want to aee the
forests conserved, used by commer
cial Interesta for sustained-field ope
rations but more especially utilised
by the pdblto In finding health-glv-lng
recreation In the mldat of sce
nic, tranquil beauty.
Women of the forest service share
the men'a dread of fire, that beauty
and asset-consuming force. When a
fire occurs, the women go Into ao
tlon, too.
Consider the example of Mrs. Lee
Port, wife of the veteran ranger In
charg of the Applegate district of
the Rogue River national forest. For
the second time in a week lightning
struck Thursday evening, setting
numerous fires. Mrs. Port went to
work Immedlstely.
Here Is a report received at Med
ford headquarters by Blmerl Jarvl,
fire chief, from Mrs. Port. It wss
a telephone report.
This Is Mrs. Port spesklng. I
thought I hsd to tell soma ons
what action was being taken. One
fire la out. The fireman la here lac
ing his boots. He put the fire out
before lacing them.
