0. J. FEE SPEAKS ON
"STATIC IN BUSINESS"
Tells Women Success Is Meas
ured by Ability to Take
Responsibility.
O. J. Fee, manager of Evans laun
dry, talked before the Girls Commer
cial club on "Static in Business" at
their monthly dinner at the Elks'
club Thursday at 6 o'clock. Profes
sor and Mrs. Kirschman were guests
of the club.
"The purpose of education is to
eliminate friction within one's self
so that one is able to organize and
to compete with others without fric
tion," Mr. Fee emphasized. "We
cannot all be artists and musicians
but we can all learn to appreciate
art and music. In pursuing our edu
cation, we find that our problems are
like rocks to us until we analyze
them and learn to know their deeper
meaning and how they help to make
life more beautiful.1'
Mr. Fee told of the need for
trained women in the business world
today, and stated that their success
would not be measured in terms of
dollars and cents but by their ability
to take responsibility.
Special music for the program waB
furnished by a trio composed of
Rose Faytinger, Lucille Gates, Ella
Nuerenberger.

only in recent years that women an e
been allowd the privilge of educa
tion," says Miss Erma Appleby.

China today is her students. Since

China's idealism," Miss Appleby con
tinued. "Only a few of China's girls
are members of her student move

enlarging its foreign work for "hi

basic helping units in this cause'
