GIVE NORMAL COLLEGE GIRLS A CHANCE.
SUGGESTION FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE
NETWORK CITY DEPARTMENTS

GIVE NORMAL COLLEGE GIRLS A CHANCE.
SUGGESTION FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE
NETWORK CITY DEPARTMENTS
To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: have been reader of The Tribune since 1t
was first published. and the anniversary
or Its hftieth year Mr.. Greeley and | were well
acquainted. and he has been in my shop to a
hght which i made from water In 1852 He pro-
nounced 1t the basis of a great discovery. and said
he would give me article in The Tribune but
declined the offer of having it published before the
invention patented.
Having been reader of The Tribune for such
length of time and knowing that 1t is friend to
all mankind. take the liberty to suggest what
think would be an excellent idea. There some
very clever young women who graduate from the
Normal College every year They get their educa
tion from the city and think It would be more
than right that they should devote year and
take the positions OF those gentlemen who have
been getting from 5000 to 5000 year for doing
very little.
When they understand everything pertaining to
the city departments thoroughly. then give them IA
position In the public schools with reasonable
salary. That source. the Normal College VIII give
these young women an idea of business and an
opportunity to fiji positions accurately.
New-Iork will be one of the best governed cities
IN the world. with no more political rascaty from
Tammany Hall or any other source. as the young
women will be only too willing TO serve the city
with honesty.
terest in the pupils of the Normal College. neither
do know any of them, but think they ought To do
something for the benefit of the city which gave
them their education free and take the positions of
those men who have been robbing the city for
years. L. CLARK.
Jersey City, Dec. 4. 1894.
