NEW YORK. Aug. 2s.-The En-.
cheering and Mining Journal.Press,
In It's current issue, said:
The weeks business in tho non.

change from the preceding period.
Both zinc and lead are slightly
stronger; the copper market has also
improved from small sag. but ends
the week in the same position II oc.
cupled seven days ago. The outstand.
Ing development has been the begin
ming OF export sales of zinc to Euro.
pcan consumers, 10 whom heavy ton
nages have been allotted. In all the
metals the Improvement Of London
prices has helped materially in buoy.
ing up the markets. Attic the sit.
uation abroad is still grave, It would
appear that sufficient activity is TAX.
ing place to furnish an intermittent
demand for the non.ferrous metals"

Many European
Girls Earn Way
Through School
By MARIAN HALE
NEA Service Writar

New York, Dec. 2S.-You may think
your college days were strenuous,
that they Would have been glorious
had the profs only eliminated those
exams.
But even with exams and theses
and such, you enjoyed heaven in
comparison with the heroic efforts
the European girl is making to get
through college.
almost none of the women at the
universities in central and eastern
Europe has money enough these
days to get through college without
working her way" I am informed
by Mrs. Robert Speer, head of the
European Student Relief.
athletics are unheard of and
quite superfluous because nearly
every girl student supplements her
college training with eight hours
work day in factories. restaurants
or shops.
"Many girls come to college in the
fall practically penniless, trusting to
luck and their own efforts to pay
for their lodging, food and books"
Anything to Eearn
The ways in which they earn their
tuition are surprising and novel
One girl Mrs. Speer mentioned is
making brilliant record in law
school while operating pencil mak-
ing machine during\ the day.
Another girl, learning to be SUR
geon, rings a church bell on Sum
days in exchange for her dinner.
Still others scrub floors, do odd
jobs on farms, mend or patch-any-
thing to carry them along from one
day to the next.
''To be sure.'' Mrs Speer states,
"three years ago foreign UNIVERSE
ties would have gasped, at the idea
of their.- students doing such work.
Then it was considered, disgrace
for the intellectual classes to engage
in manual labor. But howAl times
have changed!
-. American Help
"The European Student; Relief,
supported to a large extent BY self
supporting American students, really
showed the way to these ambitious
girls and have helped thoSe who
would otherwise have had with
draw. But it has given helf only to
those who were willing to help
theEselves. ~.s;. u. {
