And possibly we hear more about them
and their play than the hundreds who quietly
go their way, working from sun-up until late
bedtime, not to help themselves but to help
others.
Ethel Dale Norman (Mrs. B. E. Norman,
3212 Ryan Ave.), is one of the latter and I would |
aay that she is just one of hundreds of young
mothers in this town whose unselfish lives we
hear too little about.

leaves and winter will soon be with us
to stay. We were greeted by rain and
the roads were covered, with snow
which had become rather icy slush.
I was very much interested to go
through the school, meet the new prin-
cipal and many of the teachers, and
finally to sit at luncheon opposite two
of the high school boys who are run-

By 7:30 a. m., she is at her desk at Bryant’s Studio, where
she is business manager. And there she remains until 6:30

equally as busy. They own their
own home and furniture, assist
her parents and give their little
boy, an attractive and smart lit-

Mrs. Norman’s reasons for work
outside the home are three-fold,
and I list them because many a
married woman works today for
exactly these reasons:
1. To give her child additional
advantages,
2. To aid her own parents.
3. To share with her husband

Book To Come Out Today
TPHERE’S a lot of work, to pub-
I lishing a book, be it ever so
small. . So says Mrs. J. R. Calder,
1901 Sixth Ave., author of "Seven
by Nine Nurse,” a tiny little suede
volume, whose pages measure only
3 by 4 1-2 inches.
The book, based on Mrs. Cald-
er’s own experiences as a nurse
at St. Luke's Hospital in St. Louis,
is being re-published today by
Tardy Publishing Co., Dallas, Mrs.
Calder first published the book
herself in the summer of 1934.
Before the book came out, she
had 100 orders from friends and
former associates at St. Luke's
Hospital.
Has Written Dozens of Letters
Here began her largest task.
She wrote all of these associates
to tell them that she was publish-
ing such a book, and then she
wrote to thank them for their or-
ders. She also wrote dozens upon
dozens of newspapers sll over
the country and sent them copies
of her book for reviews. She also
set herself to the task of writing
bookshops everywhere, also celebri-
ties whose influence would aid her
in putting her book over.
But her work was hot in vain.
She received orders from book-
shops in Knoxville, Tenn., Tucson,
Ariz, and other cities; had reviews
in the Cincinnati Enquirer, Los
Angeles Times, New York Mirror
and other newspapers. In addi-
tion she had letters from William
Lyon Phelps, Max Eastman, Major
Edward Bowes and Fannie Hurst,
The latter had been her childhood
schoolmate In St. Louis,
