Gooden, sec: | retary of the student employment bu- |reau at the North Dakota Agricultur- ie college. Each day the mail brings | several more applications to Mrs. | Gooden’s office, and each day both jold and pr ctive college students are either phoning or making person- al calls to be placed in the employ- | ment bureau files. It is a safe esti- j mate. according to observers, that | several hundred more students will be added to the list of 1100. | Although the student employment | bureau has been operating on the | Campus for only one year, Fargo bus- inessmen and housewives begin to | place confidence in college men and women help sent out from the bureau. Figures for the past ten months show that 705 students earned a total of $249,032.05 during their spare mo- ments. There were 420 business firms |and 1210 homes in Fargo that hired college students. The average amount earned by college men and women for the ten-months’ period was $353.23, according to Mrs. Gooden. The system which was originated by Mrs. Gooden and now used in her work makes it possible for her to keep “tab” on every student whose name is entered on her files. Cards | filed at the employment office at | the time of application for work carry the person's name, address and tele- phone number and where he may be found at any time of the day in case | @ job comes up_ A systematic follow. up of each student sent out to work is made by the secretary, and in this y every employer of college stu- dent help is given the best of serv- ice. It Js the policy of Mrs. Gooden to dent sent out that he is to do his best. This has built up a spirit among the students to do any work offered and to do it well. | Expect Receipts of Minot Postoffice to Reach All-Time Mark Minot, N.
