Since Carnegie Tech set up the

schools every year have been en-

today, a demand for well-trained,
talented teachers at all educa-
tional levels, the elementary and
secondary schools as well as the
colleges and universities. In such
positions, the graduate directs,

On Professional
Federal Jobs
By CeIima [. Hozord

Information Division. United States
Civil Eervice Commission.
Young people coming out OF
college in the Washington area are
usually aware of possible opportu-
mites for getting a job with the
Federal Government. What some
of them do not realize, however.
is the fact that definite steps to-
ward getting a professional Fed
Ieral job can be taken before grad
uation. That Is the best time to
look into requirements and op-
portunities-before graduation.
Almost every fall the United
States Civil Service Commission
announces a group Of examina-
Itions that have special appeal for
college students. Through these
examinations thousands Of col
Ilege-trained young men and wom-
EN- have been brought into the
Federal service. They have been
appointed, at the junior profess
siona level, to a wide range OF
positions in the physical, agricul-
Itural and social sciences, in en-
lgineering and in administration.
These examinations are an
Inounced under such titles as jun
Iior professional assistant, Junior
management assistant, junior So
Icial science assistant, Junior sci
enlist and engineer and junior
agricultural assistant. They cover
many fields - usually different
from year to year-and qualify
applicants for jobs as diverse as
home economist, physicist, statiS-
tician and psychologist.
Applicants are usually accepted
from senior students. If they pass
the examination they may be Of
fered jobs just about the time
they graduate from college in the
spring. That is why it is well to
plan ahead when thinking of get
t1xI5 q 4CdC1 GA JOhs
Another way to plan ahead is
for students to shape their COL
ilege work to include the courses
necessary to meet civil service
standards for the particular posi-
Ition aimed at. This can be done
by reading the latest requirements
for the position. OF course, re-
Iquirements change. particularly in
rapidly developing fields like
physics, but students can get val
liable information from the an
Inouncements of previous exami-
nations, which are readily avail
able.
1t is not possible to state def
nitely what the best Federal op-
portunities for professional wom-
en- will be in the future, but the
jobs for which they are most ur-
gently needed at the present time
are dietitian, librarian, general
duty nurse, psychiatric nurse,
public health nurse, chemist,
physicist, engineer, elementary
teacher in the Indian Service and
social worker in the Veterans Ad-
ministration. All these jobs pay

fession. Most public officials. il
they were to be honest, would
admit that they prefer to see
story about themselves under
mans rather than a woman's
by-line.
History shows, oddly enough
that women broke into the news
paper field at the top and worked
their way down. They were more
numerous as newspaper publish
ers and editors in the early years
than as reporters. This is ac-
counted for by the fact that the
positions were generally inherited
Starting from the top, women

Report Reveals
Increase in
|Pre-SchooI Children

Montana has more pre-schoOl
children than it had in. 1910
but fewer from six to 81 years,
according to Mary M. Condor,
state superintendent of public
instruction. T
A recent census showed that
from 1910 to 1850 children un-
der six years old increased frem
$1,000 to 72,303, a gain of 1903.
However, the number of chill
dren between six and 81 dropped
from 154,520 to 1896.
Miss Condor said the census
showed an increase in both age
groups for the last four years,
and the moving of pupils from
rural to town areas since 1910.
More than 1880 one-room coun-
try schools took care of 1881
students in 1910; there were
only 1876 such schools with g.
281 students in 1850.
This means more pressure on
town schools and teachers, Miss
Condor pointed out. With a 300
per cent increase in construc-
ton and maintenance over pre-
war costs, the financial re-
sources of most districts have
been taxed to the maximum"
she said.
Miss Condor urged all Mon
tana residents to take an inter-
est in the current building facil-
tiles survey which is intended
to give long-range planning to
school needs throughout the
state.
