MI86 BERTHA CONDEE, Y. W C. A.
SECRETARY, PRESENT
OPPORTUNITIES FOR GIRLS
Some of tho Beneficial Uses to Which
a College Co-ed May Apply Her
Education Large Field
Is Opening Up
Many loyal coeds assembled at con
vocation yoBterday. The meeting was
opened by a musical numboi by Mih
Raymond. Miss Graham then made
some announcements which weie par
ticularly of Intorosl to tho girls and
introduced Miss Conde, nonlor student
secretary for the national board, who
iH now the guest of the Young
Women's Christian Association
MIsb Conde first touched upon tho
two questions which confront tho col
lege graduate The flrst one Is, "What
am I going to do with my education ?'
and tho second. "How am I going to
support myself?"
As a solution to these questions
many girlB become teachers There
are, however, vocational opportunities
lor women other than teaching The
first of the three principles in choos
ing a vocation ih that vocation is an
evolution of life, not an artificial pro
duction. It is foolish lor a girl to
make an artificial vocation for herself.
For instance, a girl who has a born
instinct for teaching often takes up
homo other line of work, thus making
an artificial vocation for herself
The second principle is that the
girls must have something that tfMlJ
.satisfy their highest ambitions and
tholr deepest purposes. This warns
girls against going into things that do
not I terest them.
The third principle is to dis
criminate botween necessity of mak
ing a livelihood and life. "Make sure
that your life haB capacity to include
livelihood." There are some profes
sions which mean life, but not liveli
hood; for insctance, many girls live
tor music who will never be able to
succeed In supporting themselves by
it. Buch professions as music are elo
cution, Journalism, juvenile court work
and Bocial settlement work In many
cases these professions cannot be

Called Home on Account of
Business.
Man
Paul Shields has quit bchool and re
turned to his business at South
Omaha. Shields loaves a host of
friends here at Nebraska. Few men
have over battled for the Scarlet and
Cream who wore better fellows. Last
year, aa a freshman, he was the big
show in the freshman line. In basket
ball ho was the best man on the fresh
man team. Last fall Shields was
looked upon as a cinch in tho 1913
team JuBt before the first game he
received an injury which threw him
out until tho Weslojan game. Here
he kept up his recoid as a hard luck
merchant by getting a broken collar
bone. In basketball he made the
squad and Beemed to havo his letter
sewed up , Now his work calls him
homo. Wo hope to see him back to
form a cog In the 1914 teams
