The Girl and Her Career

What are the ambitions of the mod
ern young girl? What does she see
herself doing in life, and what shape
do her aspirations take?
The Y. w. C. A. in one city has been
trying to find out, and to do so it sent
out cards to 525 high school girls ask
ing them what they planned to make
of themselves when, at commencement,
the high school doors sent them forth
for the last time, to enter upon the
next chapter in the business of life.
There were several very interesting
results. The preference protested
covered very wide variety of call
ings, but these things stand out of the
net result:
First-Not one of these 525 girls
planned to become a moving picture
actress.
Second-Only one girl professed a
wish to be an actress in the spoken
drama.
Third-Only one girl spoke up for
marriage as a career.
These facts are rather notable. 1t
is saying a good deal for the stability
and common sense of these girls that
in the face of the fabulous salaries re-
ported to be paid to headliners of the
films, and the motor cars and fancy

Among the most reprehensible of
the hurry tribe are those to whom
traffic rules are anathema, and who
are willing to take long chances to
save 10 minutes in a trip to or from
town.
1t is this class that furnishes the
daily menu of automobile causualties.
Perhaps the most effectual punish
ment for this type of Individual would
be to give the traffic officers authority
to order every speeding car to the
side of the road, and there paddock it
for half an hour, or more, according
to the gravity of the offense.
Another class of the hurrier who,
however, injuries only himself, orders
and eats his meals with a rush.
One chef is quoted as saying that
the curse of American cooking is the
injunction Rush this order, please"
Neither good preparation of food nor
good digestion goes with such an ord
er.
Whoever is living hurried life is
living a poorly planned, disordered,
nervous, inefficient life, and is mean
while rushing the observation-disclosures
born Independent.

dogs and wonderful houses and lux
uries these salaries are reported to
bring, none of them chose the screen
as career. That only one of them
wanted to be an actress is also inter
esting, for before the careers open to
women widened there would have been
many more to choose that attractive
field which is nothing like the bed of
roses it seems to the dreams of youth.
But the outstanding fact is that
only one spoke of marriage as care
err. Nothing could more clearly re-
veal the change that has come from
the time, not so long ago, when since
marriage was about the only career
open to women, most of these girls, If
they had been frank, would have ad-
mitted that was the career they
looked forward to. Of course far
more than one of these 525 will find
that marriage is the career to which
she is destined, and it is to be hoped
that all of them, whatever form their
self-expression may take in the choice
of career, will marry also. There is
no reason why they shouldn't.
Nursing attracted many. Sixty
seven planned to be teachers, not
counting several who wanted to be
kindergartners. Fifteen chose the
law, ten medicine, two pharmacy.
One, with an eye to business, wanted
to run beauty parlor. A consider
able number chose literary work and
social service, and interior decorat-
ing, short-story writing and news
nanar work each e1ained faw Ono
wanted to be companion to an old
lady.
On the whole, though one might
have preferred to see larger repre-
sentation of the arts in this list, the
showing reflects a great deal more
stability and common sense than is
being credited to girl youth by those
who are talking-altogether too much
about the modern girls habits and
clothing .-Duluth Herald.

Hurry is not speed. It is not en-
ergy. It is not the opposite Of sloth-
fulness. 1t is not means by which
great ends are accomplished.
A study Of the men of affairs, who
have made, or are making history, will
demonstrate that hurry is not a char
acteristic of the man who is doing
things worth while.
There are exceptions, Of course, but
almost invariably the man of affairs
is deliberate. He accomplishes much,
but does it calmly, measuredly, and
according to schedule.
His schedule is so planned, perhaps,
that every moment of the working day
is assigned, but there is sufficient time
for each task when its time comes.
He does not hurry.
The hurrying man is one, who, with
immature plans, is trying to keep up
with a poorly arranged schedule, and
is always a little behind.
Hurry, because it involves lost mo-
ton, makes for ineffciency.
Some men imagine that hurry is q
virtue, that their feverish activities
help to keep them in the lime light.
Such activities may impress some
persons, but not those who read below
the surface.

Restaurant Hats

Black continues to be the favorite
for dress wear despite the many col
ored hats that are in every millinery
salon, and while the larger models
and the more intricate shapes have
an important place, there are many
moderate sizes and many hats of SIM
pie lines that are just as effective.
They, too, have ali sorts of odd trim
mings oddly arranged and they have
quite as much the air of richness as
the larger hats. The admiral hat
with its barrage of ostrich, is one of
the much-liked hats. 1t is black and
particularly suited to the statuesque
woman.
Then cardinals cap. a matronly
shape in black chiffon velvet, is
trimmed along the side with a COM
spact band of velvet purple asters with
their stems dropped Systematically
over the edge of the brim. For the
matron, too, are some draped hats
fashioned on frames of the English
walking hat type. Two of these are
built of brown velvet, with twisted
gold cloth forming coil for the close
ly turned br1m. black satin with a
wide cuff banded with bit of fur
and a fur motif. carrying silver
frondes at one side.
Black satin with fur promises TO
be one of the outstanding features Of
hat modes this season. Some of these
satin hats are very soft, many with
no crown foundation at all. others
having -draped or shirred brims and
still others, chiefly among the larger
hats, are very stiff.
Ribbon Hats And Ribbon Trims
Broad ribbon seems to have found
new and distinctly important vogue
for itself this fall, for fully one-third
of the hats shown involve ribbon to
some degree\in their construction.
Everyone likes. and most everyone
can wear. the hats with the rounded
crown and sloping brim, each of which
is swathed in ribbon, but a novel
touch was given to one exceedingly
attractive model of this type. The

fects are seen in profusion.
One interesting girdle is composed
of inch squares. alternating dark and
light beads mingled with worsted cord
This finishes with a steel ring into
which are caught long strands of the
cord and many bead strings.
Flower forms are prime favorites.
One sees peoples. dahlias, lotus flow

shaggy hydrangeas and gorgeous sum
flowers decorating girdle or holding
up a drapery. And then these flower
forms enter tremendously into COM

Is in an orchid satin that will tone in
with almost any frock. It's tongue is

held with great, square, hand-paint-
ed buckle. All Of silver are some
dancing slippers with exquisite silver
lace tongues based with oblong orna-
ments of colored stones and, finally,
pair of bronze slippers, so suitable for
many different types of costumes,
These have long narrow insets OF
elastic and tongues slashed to let IN

the rule in a collection at one smart
shop. while at another Colonials, high
w arched and high Of heel with large
buckles placed upright, are noticeably
fetching, and these two types Of foot
gear demonstrate how different are
the models featured.
A new idea in evening footwear is
shown in the steel and aluminium
cloth affairs, plain and embossed.
These have a dull appearance, a gray
ish tone quite different from that Of
silver cloth and a much better choice
for the all-round slipper since the
very dullness tones in more persua-
sively with a greater number OF COS
tune colors than do the brighter sill

though. provide another hint Of novel

done in colors, sometimes striking, but
more often in neutral tones of pleas

noticeable that there are many toe
slippers, and opera pumps are again
in evidence. and certainly no other
type of footgear is so becoming to
any foot as/the plain satin slipper OF

tongues is TO be had separately in the
shops, If is an economical plan. where

satisfaction.
