To Be a Welfare Worker. mylfivmb’y\hflxm’i ‘There is in many women an eagerness to help out others, and that is perfectly gen- uine. But there are other reasons why this work seems at- tractive. It is asso- ciated in the minds of most girls with the idea of great ladies of the past. They see a picture of a rich woman with a basket un- der her arm, carry- ing good things to eat to the poor. They'd like to have a job where they could act like this rich woman. But modern welfare work is a different af- fair. It needs much more knowledge and much less sentimentality. To be a welfare worker today you must know something about psychology and economics. As a consequence, it is useless to try to become one unless you are a college graduate. “Discontented,” that she had two years of high school work and wants to get a job as a wel- fare worker, must give up the idea There are still many active and success- ful social welfare workers who have no college degree, but they are women of long experience, who learned the work in the old days. Now welfare workers are trained in special schools and also in special courses in the universities. ‘The pay is small and the work is difficult, and yet an enormous number of college women go in for it. They do 1t because there is & certain amount of social standing connected with it.
