out to have a good time. 70 get all
the fun the camp has % offer, and
to give all the fun TO the camp that
she has to offer, the better time she'll
have, and the better time the rest
will have.
It's a cas- of more team work, or
learning to cooperate, as we have
said before. But anyway, hurrah for
the camp. You must write to Five
Fifteen this summer, Mabel, We
shall be very impatient for your first
letter.
How many of you girls at the tea
table are beginning to make plans
for this summer vacation?
A whole two months from school
for a good many of you, and nothing
in particular to do. Plan out all that
beautiful time. Why not get a Job?
There are always hundreds of young
mothers who would be glad to have
a fine. clean school girl who would
give them a lift with the baby or
the small children who want Moth
ing to much as to run away when
mother is doing her mornings work.
The right sort of young mother
wants the right sort of young girl

dren is a good sort of job, and much
more satisfactory than playing with
dolls used to be. Little youngsters
are SO responsive and take life So
very earnestly hat a thoughtful girl
can not only have a lot of fun but
she can learn a good deal too, and
that is accommodating experience. you
know. If several of you would go
among your mothers friends and ask
for part time jobs taking are of the
! children, say mornings or afternoons,
perhaps some mornings and
some afternoons, 0 would earn
quite a little money, and you would
feel that your summer had been
profitable. You might find that you
could earn your money for two
| weeks in camp in just that way.
1t is worth a great deal to work
for someone who is a splendid per-
sonality; just to be associated with
a fine woman, even If you are with
her in her house as an employe, is
valuable to you. After all, you learn
more from people than you do from
books. When you have been cut of
school a while, you will find that most
of what you learned with so much
study has evaporated completely from
your memory; but what certain fine
teachers that you particularly loved
meant to you,-their personality,
their character, and their always
making you think of the best things
in life,-those impressions never
fade. So when you look for a vaca-
ton job, try to get it with fine peo-
pie, and if you succeed. you will find
that you have done yourself a good
turn.
Encourage your brothers to get
vacation work too. In a big auto
mobile city that l know, all the best
boys in high school go after work in
the big motor plants, and grub
away all summer in greasy overalIs,
so that they a make all their own
money for the mex school year. 1
have known any number of high
school boys who have earned all
their own clothes, their fraternity ex-
penses and their spending money for
the entire school year. They work.
ed hard all summer, stopped In time
to have a two weeks vacation be-
fore school began, and they weren't
any the worse for it, either, besides
being very we'll supplied with a bank
account. Girls can do just the same
thing, only they are luckier about
the number of jobs available. with
all the Mothers Helpers positions TO
be had all the time. Suppose six or
eight or more of you got together
and organized what you might call a
Mothers Relief Corps" Then you
could arrange to work half days for
six days a week, at so much for the
four or five hours, and let your
mothers friends know that you were
available for such an arrangement
by the week or the month. Think
it over, girls, and if you want to talk
about it at Five-Fifteen next We'd
nesday, we'll have an extra cup of
tea along with such an important
discussion.
Goodbye until then.
