SAYS RICH GIRLS DELIGHT IN WORK Miss Helen Bennett, Prominent Chi- cago Vooational Worker, Ad- dresses Club Women. LUNCH AT DOWNTOWN HOTEL A great appetite for work is growing among American girls. Daughters of the rich are looking just as hungrily for something to do as the girl who needs the money, according to Miss Helen Ben- nett, manager of the Collegiate Bureau of Ocoupations in Chicago. Miss Bennett apoke to 100 leading club women of the eity at a luncheon at the Hotel Loyal “Vocational guidance does not mean guiding boys and girls into certain lines of work, neither does it mean industrial education. It means rlacing before them the opportunities that are open and let- ting them choose wisely. It means strengthening the relationship between the school, employer and the home, as well as the child. Plastio Material, “Vocational work must be kept in a plastio condition because you are dealing ‘with plastic material. You can't divide children into groups ana set them apart. You must study the individual. Neither does it moan finding a job. We are not dealing with occupations, but with in- dlyiduals.” iss Bennett praised the work of the local bureau, which for the first two months averaged over 33 per cent In placement work. This is a better record than that of the Chicago bureau when it was first arranged, she sald. More children drop out of school through indifference, rather than real need, was the opinion expressed by Miss Tone C. Duffy, who is interested in the local bureau, which seeks to keep chil- dren in school as long as possible. “I am further surprised at the large number of college students, some of them graduates, who yet have no definite work or voca- tion in mind. They wull until they have finlshed school to decide,” sald Miss vurty, Would Atd Parents. ““The voeational guldence bureau seeks to ald those parents who have no tech- nical nor sclentific knowledge themselves, even If they did have the time and money to help thelr chiidren in making and choosing a vocation.” Miss Duffy made an appeal f6r support of the local bureau. ‘“We want to be notified by housewives and employers of part-time work which will enable boys and girls to continue longer in school. We want employers to place calls with us. We want volunteer assistance from college girls, and we want financial ald.” Miss Bennett and Mrs. ¥. H. Cole, well known club woman, who had met before in Ilinols, renewed acquaintance at the luncheon. ENGLISH RAILROAD MOVES 16.000 SPECIALS (Correspondence of the Associated Press.)

LONDON, March 20.—A challenge to don the boxing gloves with all individuals who have been calling him a shirker in the present crisis has been made by the vicar of the Somerset mining village of eford, near Bath, the Rev, J. H. Bvans, He has been receiving anonymous letters urging him to practice what he preaches and join the army. Here are his own words in his parish magazine: v “The vicar of this parish has hit upon the following measures to meet his own case: ‘In school, college and curate days he wan supposed to defend himself ably in the boxing ring and dogs not remem- ber being beaten under fairly equal condi- tions. He 1s now ready to put on the gloves with any of these unknown per- sons if they will reveal their identity in public, Further, In order to relieve any likely miner-recrult who may have a scientlous reason, as for instance, the support of widowed mother, he is not ashamed or afrald, but willing to take his place in the mine and give the wages to the dependent. If plece work can be ar- ranged which will not interfere with cler- feal duties.’ ™ ENGLISH ARE SKEPTICAL OF GERMAN-MADE SHOES (Correspondence of ths Assoclated Press.) LONDON, March 2.—The Bnglish peo- ple are wearing shoes made of German | leather through the fact that many of | their shoes are imported from Switser- land where the manufacturers are known to use large quantities of German leather. ‘Their suspicions were recently | confirmed by the fact that British im- ports of shoes from Switzerland during February were nearly double those of the corresponding period in 1914, Infor- mation was given in the house of par- llament recently that the use of German leather to the extent of 25 per cent, in shoes imported from Switzerland, is per missible.
