Excerpt from The Governor's Boss
Her mother, owing to practice in tidily do ing her own clothes and the clothes for Ruth, was able to turn her hand to sewing for the neighbors - thus the wolf did not reach their door.
Ruth, not quite purposeful enough to learn stenography or bookkeeping, or anything like a female profession, sought a position as tele phone operator, and after two or three years of assisting and substituting, finally reached the goal of her ambition. And no one has been heard to say that she did not perform her du ties with punctuality and dignity. Her grad nation from this position, or her degradation from it, as the reader may choose to regard it, must be reserved.
