To give the women students of Queen's University a look into the world of action where they will take their place when their days of col . lege lite are over, a splendid scheme has been perfected by which hear from some of the hha who are doing things that matter, what that life in the world fab from balls may have in store for them in the way of possibilities and the quick wit, the | 8d gained by years of real exper- ( COMING EVENTS ||| wide sympathy, the definite knowl-] | pray for it and say to { ny GOODYEAR 3 / # v TeYYYw CLEARING LINES OF CALFSKIN, WELT OXFORDS In Blacks, Browns and Tans--all excellent makes and up to $7.50 in value. ; Now at $3.98 can bring a definite statement from Canada. ' We believe and we hope but have no statistics on many parts of the work." Research work was another field in which there were great opportun- ities, and good salaries for women, who were ready to begin at the bot- tom of the ladder. "I would say, fit yourselves to take secretarial posi- tions, learn stemography and be fit for office work and as a secretary you will learn the work of the de- partment you choose." These and other ideas were suggested to girls who were thinking of a career, but Miss Whitton paused before she and vital part of the various relig- fois and semi-religious organisa- tions working side by side for the betterment of the human race, the acutal work with those they. are helping. She warned the girls that they would see human nature in a bad light, that the social worker was not called in until there was something wrong and that they must have a deep and abiding faith in the personality of the human be- ings they were called upon to deal with and in the real goodness that lies somewhere in the heart of man, The speaker referred to the Coun- ell for Social Service of the Church of England in Canada, of the Social Service Council of the United Church, and of the Continuing Pres- byterian Church and felt the girls conld find work within their own church. She dwelt on the immigra- tion of children and spoke strongly "of the children brought out from large institutions or from crowded ¢ities and. placed on farms, miles from anywhere, with perhaps an elderly couple as their sole compan- fons. Tn a recent case of suicide of a boy, it was found he had no mon- éy of his own, he was given five cents a week to put on the collec- tion. plate on Sunday. "Imagine what a whale of a time he would fave, putting five cents on the plate once a week." J 'The saving of children, the work tof the Y.W.C.A.,, the supervised playgrounds and the positions in connection with the Mothers' Al- lowance and the Deliquent Aot were all open to women. Women had intuition and a sympathy needed for such work. "But," said this girl gravely, "Don't go .into it lightly. Don't go into it. unless you go to help a human being like you who has not been able to adjust ti circumstances of life as well as y spoke of what she said was the real': an. have.
