ject of vocation
al pursuits for college women. The
meeting is fostered by Miss White,
dean of women, who says she has for
some time been impressed with the
need for directing the lives of the
undergraduate college women into
more definite and purposeful lines.
Every college woman" says she,
should be a potential wage Garner.
It makes no difference whether she
ever really earns a salary or not she
can turn her training to good account
in her own home or in civic service.
There are hundreds of young women
in our colleges today whose education
is being acquired in a perfectly aim
less manner. II Is less the fault of
the young women than that of the in
stitution OF learning"
1t Is also true that many of those
same young women who obtain some
education in a perfectly aimless way
afterwards find it necessary to work
and lacking special training are un-
able TO command wages in keeping
with their needs and tastes.
It Is as essential that our colleges
turn out specially trained young wom-
en- as that they turn out specially
trained men. If girls cannot special
ize in anything else they can do so in
domestic science and thus become
specially trained for housekeeping
which is still woman's chief occupa-
ton.
