There are innumerable positions OF

But for the girl who has followed no
particular course in college and who
has no very clear idea OF what she
wants 10 40 10 earn ner own living,
the first thing is to let her get some
business training of some kind. 4 few
months at almost anything will give a
college girl more practical knowledge
than she can get from her books I'm
years. If a girl who comes to us TO
get her a position mas knowledge OF
any language other than her own, We
can get her a position as n translator
In a publishing or mercantile house.
If she speaks but one language, there
