GIYES ADVICE TO
GIRLSAT SCHOOL
Miss Helen Bennett Says It Does
Not Pay Young Women to
Work Way Through School.
SOME WOULD SUCCEED, ANYWAY
'Girls, don't go through college If you
have to work your way through. The
rrost successful career Is not worth the
price you pay physically, nor Is It com
pcnsfltlon for the tl'ed' feeling with
vhlch you go through life afterward."
This Is Miss Helen Itcnnett s message
to higrh school girls. Miss Bennett Is
manager of the Collegiate Bureau of Oc
cupations In Chicago. She gave two
talka at Central Hig'n rchool, one to the
girls and the other to school teachers,
lmpress'nf upon the -rachers especially
the Importance of discouraging girls from
attempting to work their way through
college.
'But Isn't It true t'lat 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," nhe replied. "While
the vocaUonnl guidance bureaus are pri
marily to keep boys an 1 girls In the pub
lic schools end high Fihools as long as
possible In order to ?nake them self-supporting
tho college education Is a differ
ent matter entirely. In the first case
the phlldren are living at home and are
only partially self-supporting. In col
lege the girls must wirk for their board,
room, clothing, Jnundry and other ex
penses, and carry their studies at tne
same time."
ot 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 ft from me, a single, unmar
ried woman, to go Into the boy's prob
lem. It is all I can do to deal with the
girl's problem," Bhe 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
find your niche. Accuracy and a aense
of responsibility are tho two greatest as
sets a girl can possess In order to land
tho best position. Tersonal appearance,
too, is a big factor. Tou must be pretty.
Every girl owes it to herself to make
herself good looking." .
Leaves Make-l'p to Girls.
Whether a girl should resort to aids
to beauty In order to attain these ends.
Miss Bennett declined to Bay. "I leave
that to the girls," she aald.
To the teachers, she called attention to
their 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 Association of
Collegiate Alumnae Is the best thing done
for Rlrla in the history of Omaha, ac
cording to Miss Bennett.
Miss Bennett will speak to all club
women Interested In vocational guidance
for glrla at ' a luncheon at the Hotel
Loyal Friday at 12:15 o'clock, for which
Mr. Hubert Owen la receiving reserva
tions. Mlaa Bennett la enroute home
from the vocational guidance conference
at the University of Nebraska early In
the week, at which she was one of the
speakers.
