Hitherto out of the reach of many

the Interior Department stenographer
from a small town. Before she came

thought, she could hear music much
more frequently. She found, however,
that at $l.660 year she had to skip
more concerts than she attended.
On the other hand, there's the girl
stenographer tn the Treasury. She, too,
comes from small town but she had
never heard much symphony music.
