capacity is the privilege of meeting
these women from all over the state
and perhaps outside the state, who
have really accomplished something
so worth while that they have been
invited to tell others about their
work.
Many varieties of callings are pre-
scented at these meetings and then,
in order that each girl delegate may
have an opportunity of coming in
more intimate contact with the work
in which she has become interested,
conferences are held on special sub
ecjts which are very informal and in
which each delegate present Is en-
couraged to ask very direct and per-
sonal questions concerning the topic
in hand.
It is no wonder that the idea has
grown in popularity and that women

and educators all over the state are
growing to be more and more i'm
pressed with the practical as we'll as
the inspirational value of this an
nual gathering. It Is only unfortu-
nate that all girls cannot attend but
these delegates are seriously charged
with their duty to those who remain
at home and each one returns to her
community brimful of her report to
her school and club, besides the very
many private condolences which, one
may imagine, are not included in the
official report. The result is, that
the school is at once imbued with a
spirit to better it's standing and that
each girl is inspired with longing
to be selected next year as delegate
and this longing influences her to
raise not only her standard OF
work but of character during the
ensuing year.
Basis of Selection
OF the Girl Delegates.
Upon what basis are these dele
gates appointed by the clubs, is the
question which is often asked. There
is no set rule governing this. Eacl

BY Mrs. l.. o. Edmunds.

<<vr HE GREATEST gathering Of
girls in the wOrld,' said
L the young chairman OF the
Girls Vocational Congress, held re-
Gently in Bozeman. And she was
quite right. There have been con-
crosses, there have been conventions,
there have been clubs, but IN all the
world there is only one congress for
hign school gl1ls, and that is the one
which entered upon its fourth annual
session last week.
And as there is but one high school
congress in the world, so there IS
but one dean of women in the world
who could so successfully and de-
lightfully each year preside over this
gathering of over a hundred high
school girls, assembled from the four
corners .of Montana. To Mrs. Una
B Herrick, dean Of women at the
Montana State college, the Montana
girl is indebted for this early oppor-
tunity to come in contact with this
vocational guidance, and even the
first meeting held four years ago
met with a prompt and hearty re-
Spouse from club women and edu-
cational people throughout the state.
Mrs. Herrick first secured the en-
dorsement of her plan from the state
federation of clubs. The plan was
arranged that the various local clubs
represented in the federation should
select delegates from their hlgh
school girls and pay their travelling
and incidental expenses and that the
club women of Bozeman should fur
nish free entertainment for the dele
gates while in the city. This plan
was successfully followed and even
the first congress, though much
smaller in numbers than succeeding
ones, distinctly carried out the aim
and object of it's founder.
Many Women of Achievement
Attended the Congress.
The plan of procedure has beer
to have each type of work which
might be done by woman present
ed by some qualified expert in tina
line. preferably by a woman. Al
teaching is the profession so com
monty followed by women, it has no
been thought necessary to emphasize
that calling. Therefore women ap
pear for the most part on the pro
gram and one of the happy feature
of attending this congress in an.

Woman's Work in Britain.

The extent to which women are
entering the indust! les of the United
Kindom is indicated by the July fig
ures recently published by the en-
ployment department or the board of
trade. In Industrial occupations the
estimated total of women employed
in July, 1914, was 2,117,000. Up
to July, 1916, there has been gross
increase of women in these occupa-
tions, of 100000. OF these, 100000

win of the college; public service by
Miss Mary Hanson, deputy sheriff of
Cascade county. Miss Mary Ellen
Chase, author of "The Girl From the
Big Horn Country" addressed the
girls on "The Genius of Hard Work"
The subject of the school nurse was
taken up by Miss Mary Rust who
holds that position for the city of
Bozeman, and openings for women
printers was discussed by the wo-
man editor of the Absarokee Enter
prise.
It is scarcely necessary to dwell at
length on this part IT the program.
Being presented almost entirely by
grownups, it was of necessity just an
average list of speeches and papers
as grown peoples are apt to be. But
those eager, unturned young faces
were an inspiration to the poorest
sneaker and each one in turn was re-
paid by the very closest attention
which it will ever be her lot to re-
ceive.
And the girls themselves who at
tend the congress will tell you, If
they can still find words after they
have related their many experiences
while in Bozeman, that it is not al
together the wonderful lessons in
vocational guidance which the speak
ers bring which is the real gift OF
the congress. Somehow it must
awaken real sense of responsibility
and ambition in a young girl to Sc
lect her as the one to represent her
community, to send her on a rail-
way journey to a real college town
and to permit her to become part and
parcel of a great gathering like this
congress. She may be too young tc
be able to decide upon her vocation
at present but she is not too young
to catch the vision which radiates
from every message that the Grea
Vocation is a sane and happy ant
useful life and that this achievement
is within the power of all.

And old maid future.
It wasn't her own home!
This is why Mary Smith is return
ing to her home in Chicago.
She is the Mary Smith who gave
up the noise and slamming and bang
ing of the city. The unwholesome
city, the sinful city, the evil minded
city, the heart breaking city, the wild
singing, yelling, rushing, never get
anywhere city. She gave up the city
to be the little girl of James Pank-
hurst and Mother Pankhurst, rich
farmer folk Of Amboy, Ill. She was
to receive an Inheritance of $4,000.
It's All Reversed Now.
But Mary Smith is going home.
She is going home 20 the big, CRATE
full, noisy, glowing, hearty, homelike
city. She yearns for the hum OF its
traffic, the height of its buildings,
the rush of it's people. It is huge and
gathering and bursting with hymn OF
many voices, and she just loves 1T.
The farm was peaceful and Uncle
Jimmy was fatherly and kind. Aunt
Louise was full Of tenderness, but
she thought it would be too expen-
sive to use eggs in the batter and the
windows went without curtains.
She Likes Young Men!
II never had a caller" said Mary
Smith wistfully. t'1t was a part of
the agreement that was not to mar
ry. It is not that am crazy for the
company of young men, but do like
to meet them. like to talk with
them. They are interesting If they
are intelligent and / am fond of d.

"The chickens and the pigs and
the COWS are nice in their way, but
they are not so nice as the city.
