NEWSPAPER WORK
EXCITING LIFE
(Continued from page 1)
overcome obstacles, never to recog
nize or admit a failure, helps one to
gain a respect for other kinds of busi
ness, to appreciate the value of what
the other fellow knows, no matter
how he learned it.
"It is a good profession, too, for one
has the chance to become acquainted
with the very finest of people and to
meet the very best things" of the
world. The work is varied, for one
day you may interview the wife of
the president of the United States
and the next day talk with a girl of
the slums. This gives a person an
understanding and sympathy for all
classes of people, which in the end
makes for democracy, and anything
in this day and age that makes for
democracy let us hold on to as hard
as we can."
Don't Go to Big City
Miss Bennett advised that inexper
ienced girls do not go to the larger
cities to start Journalistic work, for
often there are no places open to
them there. The place to get one's
first experience is in one's own home
town and then one may go to the
larger city.
"The reason why many women fail
as Journalists is because of the lack
of physical strength or because they
are led away from fundamental news
writing to inaccurate writing. Many
women, too, do not stay with Journal
ism long enough to make a success
of it
"Journalism," continued Miss Ben
nett, "demands hard worfe. but If yoa
ore eager to work hard, it will give
back to you training and skill, a de
light in your work and joy in life."
DECLARE CONFERENCE

and has made more real opportuni
ties open to us." .
Mary Hallcr.
"Thoso who planned the conference
surely deserve a great deal of credit.
There were some excellent speeches,
and they covered a wide variety of
topics in a valuable way. No girl who
attended could receive anything but
benefit. I agree with a certain Lin
coln woman who said, after visiting
some of the meetings: 'Why, this Is
a great thing. It's worth while!"
Louise Pound.
"I consider that the vocational con
ference was a great thing in that it
has set girls to thinking along lines
on which they had not thought be
fore." Jeanette H. Finney.
"The vocational conference has em
phasized that any work to be effec
tive must have genuineness for its
foundation." Ethel Stone.
"The vocational conference has
broadened the university girl because
of the many possibilities pointed out
to her." Edna Froyd.
"The vocational conference has
made university women realize that
personality is a big factor in any pro
fession." Louise Brownell.

"ASSASSINATION OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN IN FORD'S THEATER"
As aeen In "THE BIRTH OF A NATION," which will be seen for a special return engagement of four days at the Oliver, Mar. 25, 27, 28, 29.
A kind of artistic achievement easy for the film,-but impossible for the "Indoor drama" is illustrated by the Ford's Theater scene in "The
BirtTbe old'tosWoned drama has long attempted to represent a stage within a stage, but some of such representations have been rather realistic.
But in the film scene showing the assassination of President Lincoln," one sees not only the complete stage of Ford's Theater In April, 1865,
but also the auditorium of the theater, the audience and the historical figures in the boxes.
L4ruraKeene is playing "Our American Cousin." assisted by E. A. Sethern In the role of Lord undreary. They are startled out of their mimic
parts by the shot that Wilkes Booth fired. The audience has risen to its feet as the shot is heard and cranes forward in a semi-panic to gaze at
thereat statesman whose head has fallen back in the stage box and at the assassin Booth who is eaping from the box to the stage, and whose
sour actches In the box drapery as he Jumps, causing him to break his leg. This sort of historical realism has never been achieved before. It
Is part of what Is meant by the so-called "new art" for which D. XV. Griffi th Is responsible. .
Spectators gaie at the scene with fascinated horror. It is too terrible, too awesome for applause, yet not a spectator but feels that in this
impressive rendition Mr. Griffith has surpassed the greatest previous art achievements of the film drama.
