ways a most pleasing sight Women

through some service. A woman

period OF the pr sent. the girls Of

its real place az a profession. The
kind OF worker. whether she be a
professional teacher or home
maker. must have before her an
ideal. She must have a skilled hand
and she must be a tireless worker
