T THEI lay that In the newspaper . I offices of the city men work la ' 4- rata; that the editorial writer ' Barer report! an Item, no matter how much ha knows of It; that repoter la not allowed to express an editorial .lew of a subject, even though he be ' well Qualified to apeak ; bat on our little country dally newspaper It la entirely different We work on . the Interchangeable point system. Every' ' one wrltea Items, all of us get adver tising and job-work when It cornea. our way, end when one of us writes any thing particularly good, It Is. marked for the editorial page. - The religious reporter does the racing matinee In Wlldwood park, and the financial ed itor,.; who ge$s the market reports from the ' feed-store men, also gets any church news that comes along. The only time we ever established a department was when we made Miss Larrabee society editor. She came frea the high school, where her grad es ing essay on Kipling attracted our attrtfon. and, after an office council hatf devided that a Saturday society pge would be a paying proposition. At first, for six months after she came to the office, Miss Larrabee de - voted herself to the accumulation of professional pride. This pride was as ranch a part of her life as her pompa dour, which at that time was so high taat she had to tiptoe. to reach It However she managed to keep It up was the wonder of the office. Finally, we all agreed that she must use chicken-fence. She denied this, but was Inclined to be-good-natured about It and, as an office joke, the boys used to leave a step-ladder by her desk so that she could climb up and see bow her top-knot really looked. Noth ing ruffled her spirits, and we soon quit teasing her and began to admire, her work. In addition to filling six columns of the Saturday's paper with her society report In a town where eaurch social la important enough to Justify publishing the names of those who wait on the tables, Miss Larrabee; was a credit to the office.' I She was always Invited to the enter tainments at the homes of the Worth-j lvftons and the Conkllns, who bad stationary washtubs in the basements of their houses and who ate dinner InttMd of supper in the evening; and when she jut on what the boys called her trotting harness, her silk petticoats rustled louder than any others at the party. One day Bhe suddenly dropped her pompadour and appeared with her hair parted in the middle and doused .over her ears in long, undulating bil lows. No other girl in .town came within a quarter of an inch of Miss LaiTflbee's dare. When straight fronts became stylish", jliss Larrabee was a .vertical marvel, and when she rolled up Tier sleeves and organized a country club, she referred to her shoes as boots and took the longest steps In town. But with It all she was no mere clothes-horse. We drilled It Into her bead during her first two weeks that "society" news in a country town Djeans cot merely the doings of the - rut-glass set, but hat it means as well the' doings of the Happy Hoppers, the Trundle-Bed Trash, the Knights of Co lumbus, the Rathbone Sisters, the King's Daughters, the Epworth league, the Christian Endeavorers, the Wo nan's Relief corps, the Ladles' Aid and , . tie Home Missionary societies, Miss, Nelson's Dancing class, the Switch- men's Annual ball If we get their, Job-work and every kindred, every tribe, except such asjgather In what is known as "kitchen' sweats" and oc casionally send in call for the police. When Miss Larrabee got this Into her head she. began to groan under her . burden, and by the end of the year, . though she had great pride In her profession, she affected to loathe her department , Weddings were her especial abomi nations. When the first social cloud appeared on the horizon Indicating the approach of a series of showers for the bride which would culminate-.in a cloudburst at soma stone church. Miss Larrabee would begin to rumble Ilka distant thunder and, as the storm grew ' thicker, she would flash out crooked ehain-ligbtning imprecation on the head's of the young people, their fath ers and mother and uncles and aunts. By the day of the wedding she would be rolling a steady diapason of polite, decolorized, expurgated, ladylike pro fanitr. While she sat at her desk writing' the stereotyped account of the event It was like picking up a live wire to speak to her. As she wrote, we could tell at just what stage she had arrived In her copy. Thus, if she said to the adjacent atmosphere, "What a whop- : per !" we knew that she had written, " "The crowning glory of a happy fort night of social gatherings found Its place when " and when she hissed out "Mortgaged clear to the eaves and full of installment furniture!" we felt that she had reached a point some thin? like this: After the ceremony - the gay party assiiubled at the pala tial borne. ' In a moment she would tr.nrl: I am dead tired of seeing Mrs. iutfiiimuD'tf sprawly old fern and the Bosworth palm. I wish they would ' stop lending them V and then we real ized that she bad reached the part of her write-up which said: The chan cel rail was banked with a profusion of palms and ferns and rare tropical plants.' - She always groanej when nlia came' to the "simple and impres sive ring ceremony." When she wrote; The distinguished company came forward to offer congratulations to the newly-wedded pair," she would say as she sharpened her pencil-point : There's nothing like a wedding to reveal what a raft of common kin peo 'ple have," and we knew that tt was ! aU over and that she was closing the article with ; 5 A 1 dasxling array of J costly and beautiful presents was ex hibited In the JlbraryV for then she j would pick up her copy, Jog-ear the sheets, and Jab them on tne nooa. u she sighed: "Another great American picklfrdlsh exhibit ended.", ; ; ' In the way she did two things Miss Larrabee excited the wonder and ad miration of the office. One was the way that she kept tab on" brides. We heard through her of the brides who could cook, and of those who were heirlnnln? life br accumulating a bright little pile of tin cans in the . alley. She knew the brides who could j do their own sewing and those who; could not- She bad the single girrs sniff at the bride who wore her trous seau season after season, made over th office the benefit of her opinion of the bus- J week No two events were "cjurmlngr band in the case who had a new tailor-' No two omen .were "exquls tefir" -made suit every fail and spring. She wnedJThe person "uatslsg. scented young married troubles from tha adjective "delhtf ul" by Mtas Lar af& and we knew In the office wheth-; fabee might stlcV it In front of a " . InoAliAAii I aA a tisiafaaat sit noes er his folks were edging upon her, or her people were edging upon him. If a young married man danced more than twice in one evening with anyone but his wife, Miss Larrabee madface at his back when he passed the office. on if h. Mint.' nSu married woman flirtbfc Miss Larrabee regaled us by telling with whom the woman in Question had opened a fresh bottle of emotions." The other way in which Miss Larra jbee displayed genius for her work was In describing women's costumes. Three of four times a year, when there are large social gatherings, we print de scriptions of the woman's gowns. Only three women In our town, Mrs. Worth- Inrton. Mrs. Conklln, and the second Mrs. Markley, have more than one new party dress In a fwelve-month, and -Mlas Larrabee Made races at His Baok most of the women make a party gown, last two or three years. Miss Larra-. bee was familiar with every' dress In town. She knew it made over, and no woman was cunning enough to conceal the truth even with a spangled yoke, s chiffon bertha, or a net overdress; yet Miss Larrabee would describe the gown, not' merely twice, but half a dozen times, so that the woman wear ing It might send the description to her relatives back East without arous ing their suspicion that she was wear ing .the same dress 'year after year. Therefore, whenever Miss Larrabee wrote up the dreases worn at a party, wq were sure to sell from fifty to a hundred extra papera. She could so turn a breastpin and a home-made polht lace handkerchief tucked in The front of a good old lady's best black satin Into "point-lace and diamonds," that they were always good for a dozen copies of the paper, and she never overlooked the dress of the wife of a good advertiser, no matter bow plain it might be. She was worth her wages to the office merely as a compendium of shams. She knew whether the bridal couple, who announced that they would spend their honeymoon In the East were really going to Niagara' Falls, or whether they were going to spend a week with his relatives In Decatur, '111. She knew every woman In town who bought two prizes for her whist party one to give, if her friend should win the prize, and another to give If the woman she hated should win. With the diabolical eye of a fiend she detected the woman who was wearing -the dry-clenned cast-off clothing of her sister In the city. What she saw the office knew, though she kept her con clusions out of the paper If they would do any harm or hurt anyone'a , feelings. No pretender ever dreamed that she was not fooling Miss Larra bee. She was willing to agree most sympathetically with Mrs. Conklln who insisted that the "common people" wouldn't be Interested In the list of names at her party ; and the only place where we ever saw Miss Larrabee's claw in print was In the Insistent mis spelling of the name of a woman who had made It a point to ridicule the paper. We have bad other girls around the ' THE BOBESONIAH, LUMBEST02T, IIOSTn yfice sinceMUs Larrabee left . bat they do not seem to get the work done with any system. She was not only Industrious but practical. Friday mornings, when her work piled up, In stead of fussing around the office and chattering at the telephone, she would dive Into her desk and bring tap her regular list of adjectives:' These she would copy on three slips, carefully dividing fiie list so that no one had a duplicate, and in the afternoon each of the boys received a slip with a list of parties, and with instructions to scat ter the' adjectives she had given him through the accounts of the parties assigned to him and the , work was soon done. There was no scratching the bead for synonyms for "beautiful,' "superb or "elegant" Mlsi Larrabee had doled out to each of us, the adjec tives ; necessary, and,glven; the ad jectives, society reporting Is easy. The editing of the, copy Is easy also, for one does not have to remember wheth er or not the refreshments were "d llcious" at the Jones party when he sees the word In connection with the viands at the Smith party. No two parties were ever, "elegant" the same luncheon, pin it on a hostess, or use It for an evening's entertainment But he could use it only once.

Shebadan artist's pride in e finished work, however much she she used to sail down to the press-room as soon as the paper was' out and, picking up the paper from the folder, she would stand reading her page, line upon line, precept r; upon precept though every word and syllable was famllfar to her. ;:v ; -r During her first year she Joined the Woman's State Press club, but she dis covered that she was . the only real worker in the club and never attended second meeting. She told us that When He Passed th Office WndoT too many of the women wore white stockings and low shoes, read their own unpublished short stories, and re- garded her wide-shouldered shirtwaist and melodramatic orenwork hosiery with suspicion and alarm.' As the years passed, ' and wedding after wedding slxxled under her pen, she complained to as that she was be ginning to be called "auntie" In too many, houses, and that the stock of available young men who didn't wear their handkerchiefs under their col lars at the dances had dwindled do wn to three. This reality faces every girl who lives in a country town. Then she ls left with, two alternatives: to go visiting or to begin bringing them up by hand. - Miss Lajrrabee went visiting. At the end o? a month she wrote: It's all over with me.
