SOME WOULD SUCCEED ANYWAY “Girls, don't go through coliege if you have to work your way through. The | successful carecr is not price you pay physically, nor Is it com- pens: fér the ‘tived’ feeling with vhich you go through life afterward.” This s Miss llennett's message to high school girls. Miss Bennett Is manager of the Collegiate Bureau of Oc- cupations in Chicago, She gave two talks at Central Higa rchool, one to the girls and the other to school teachers, impress'ng upon the jeachers especially the importance of dlscouraging girls from most fon Helen attempting to work their way through college. But fsn't It true that a number of very successful women have worked their way through school?’ Miss Bennett was asked “Yes, but those women would have been successful anyway,”” she replied. “While the vocational guidance bureaus are pri marily to keep boys ani girls In the lte schools and high schools as long as possible In order to nake them self-sup- porting the college education is a differ- ent matter entirely. In the first case the children are living at home and are only partially self-supporting. In col- lege the girls must work for their board, room, clothing, gaundry and other ex- penses, and carry their studies at the same time."” Not Versed in Hoys. “Does the same apply to boys! Should they, too, be discouraged from working their way through college? she was asked. “Far be 1t from me, a single, unmar- ried woman, lem. girl's problem,” she replied archly Miss Bennett gave the girls some lively pointers on going out into the world to tackle their first job. “Don’t go out and hunt any old job," she admonished them, “but try to dis- | cover first for what you are fitted. Then tind your niche. Accuracy and a sense of responsibility are the two greatest sets a girl can possess in order to land to go into the boy's prob- the best position. Personal appearance, too, is a big factor. You must be pretty. Every girl owes it to herself to make herself good looking." Lenves Make-Up to Girls. Whether a girl should resort to aids to beauty In order to attain these ends, Miss Bennett declined to say. “I leave that to the girls,” she sald. To the teachers, she called attention to thelr influence in guiding students Into vocations they shall follow, and urged them to study.the Individuality of the student. The institution of the local vocational guidance bureau by the Assoclation of Collegiate Alumnae is the best thing done for girls in the history of Omaha, ac- cording to Miss Bennett. Miss Bennett will speak to all club women interested in vocational guidance for girls at a luncheon at the Hotel Loyal Friday at 12:15 o'clock, for which Mrs. Hubert Owen is recelving reserva- tions. Miss Bennett is enroute home fron? the vecational guidance conference at the University of Nebraska early in the week, at which she was one of the speakers.
