What It Is What It Pays What It Leads To
Miss Elizabeth Arnold, of the State-City Free Employment Service,
Cleveland, O., writes these editorials from first-hand knowledge, gained
by experience in employment work. During the war, when the Em
ployment Service was taken over by the government and called the
U. S. Employment Service under the Department of Labor, she had
charge of the factory placement work, women's division. Her research
into working conditions for women has made it her duty to keep in
touch with opportunities, wages, conditions of work, training and qual
ifications demanded, slack and busy seasons,' crowded and uncrowded.
vocations and the future offered in new fields' for women.
THE STENOGRAPHER
BY ELIZABETH ARNOLD
Of State-City Free Employment Service, Cleveland, O.'
If you have a pood education but have no special Vocation you may not
realize what a broad, many-sided field stenography opens to a woman.
The Field "
In the first place this is at present an uncrowded field. First class steno
graphers with good education are commanding good salaries and are in de
mand. In the second place stenography may be used as a crutch or a wedge
by ambitious girls. The teacher, for instance, who wants to find summer
work each season docs well to use one summer to take a thorough stenographic
training. She then has no difficulty placing herself each summer. The high
school or college girl who must work her way through school does well to do
the same. m
If a girl has ability and skill there are constant demands during the sum
mer for substitutes to take the place of regular stenographers who are on
their vacations. This substitute work usually pays very well.
Many stenographers who are ambitious use their training as a wedge to
pet into the field that appeals to them. By acting as secretary or stenographer
in investment banking houses, real estate, insurance and advertising organiza
tions a girl frequently has an opportunity to get a thorough knowledge of the
details of tho business. By or whatever the field she is dealing with, a girl
rot orUy makes herself more valuable to her employer, but xriay turn what
otherwis would bo monotonous work into very valuable experience for herself.
Stcnncraphers frequently come to the Public Employment Service and re
quest to be notified "of any opening in these special fields simply because they
know that in this way they can secure the business knowledge and training
they need to succeed.
A prominent judge recently advised students who Intend to become lawyers
to us a summer in their first years of high school to take a thorough course
in stenography as this would enable them to getwork In law offices every
summer and give them the most valuable training and experience they could
possibly get In preparing for their profession.
Qualifications
If you are ambitious and are going to be a stenographer get the best edu
cation you possibly can. Few employers want stenographers under 18. Go
through high school by all means. It you are forced to leave school go to night
school. Then select your business course with the greatest care. A poor
training is almost worse han none at all. Business colleges vary greatly in
their standards. Be sure before you pay a big tuition fee that you know what
the public schools offer free of charge in commercial courses.
The things that will put your salary ahead are good general education,
training in KrgliFh, spelling, punctuation, the inclination to be accurate and
neat, the ability to hold words in memory, and businesslike habits.
A training in stenography will never handicap the ambitious, capable girl
with executive ability. Women holding such important positions as the wo
men doing merchandising research work for the Bush Terminal Co., and women
en good salaries traveling for the Department of Labor, all have their type
writers in their rooms at the hoteL
As for salary, many good stenographers are now drawing higher salaries
than some of the women doing executive work. Toung workers who have lit
tle experience with dictation are being started at about $75 a month. Women
with experience are drawing from $115 to $150 a month and up.

IN DIVORCE TANGLE
"Marriage is like the movies," said
one young war-bride-Reno-divorcee.
"You can go into the show and if you
don't like it you can get up and go
out." War brides figured in 40 per
cent of last year's Keno divorces
ending marriages of haste and passing
excitement! In nearly half our states
it is not even necessary to register a
marriage. Just think of it! In a
single year the divorces granted !n
America were more than double the
number in 20 European countries com
bined. We have 48 separate divorce
laws one for every state. Did you
know that in some states if you marry
a divorced man you can later be named
as his correspondent? At the begin
ning of a trip in one state you may
be a man's wife and at the end in an
other state the law may look on you
as a dishonored woman. If you take
your children out -of one state into
another they may be considered ille
gitimate. You can be the legal wife
of two men, of either of them, or of
neither at the. same time. You can
be both single and a bigamist at the
same time in some states. Helen Ring
Robinson's discussion of marriage and
divorce in Pictorial Review for Oc
tober discloses some amazing, ludi
crous and tragic results of our chaotic
divorce situation. She gives a graphic
pen-portrait of Reno, the divorce -boom
town, what it is and what it does.

ON WITH THE "BOB" LET
CURLS BE UNCONFINED!

BY BARBARA BURKE
Editor of ."Beauty Culture"
NEW YORK No style of modern
hair dressing has appealed to all ages
as much ns the "Bob," which seems
even to be growing i'n popularity.
Evenin- Coiffure
It was Irene Castle, at the time of
her dancing fame, who first introduced
this cut in America, Her coiffure il
lustrates the effect of bobbed hair
when dressed for evening wear. It
seems to be worn to advantage better
with an evening gown than anythi'ng
else, particularly if one has an animat
ed expression. In this case the hair
has been parted slightly on one side
and combed back, so that It droops
slightly on the forehead. To keep It in
place a fancy bandeau Is Used. Well
defined loose curls are arranged all
around the head, whfch lends a soft
ening effect to the features.
Artistic Bob '
Marion Davies illustrates how well
formed features, a-full face and plump
neck are set off by the bob. In this
case the hair is parted on one side
and combed over the top of the head
so that it falls naturally without the
necessity of keeping it in place with a
bandeau. The hair is not allowed to
grow too long, the ears beaing barely
covered and the loose curls falling
gracefully in place.
Edna Walsh, a Mount Vernon so
ciety girl, has adopted an artistic bob.

THE BOOK OF DEBORAH
Bob Didn't Care to Know the Truth
About Miss Miller, I , Felt .
The trulh about Benji'e's romance
was known to but four or five persons.
He was supposed to have married a
wife in Canada just before he died.
Not even Katherlne's mother, much
less the public, surmised her secret.
Katherine had seen her child sev
eral times at the Lorimer house and
more thaan once had I watched her
shrink away from her own flesh and
blood! Never had I known her to be
tray even a normal interest in her baby
except as a bait to attract Bob!
And so when Bob announced that
the ti'ger woman had requested him t-.i
call to talk about Babs, I wasn't the
least bit mollified. I had gone through
similar experiences, and I had been
awfully unhappy, and Bob knew it, and
if he loved me at all, he ought to spare
me a repetition of my old misery, I
said to myself, then aloud:
"You have a business office down
town. Bob, where a woman can call in
the day time!"
"With twenty employes ready to
chatter if the city's famous beautjj
came to me instead of going to her
father's lawyers! Tou know, Jane,
her lawyers never had her secret."
"Yes I know," I assented.
"Katherine is determined to take
Babs away from mother," Bob con
tinued. I laughed sarcastically before I
spoke:
""Katherine is erratic and she doesn't
intend to acknowledge her baby," I
rr.urmured. 'Believe me, friend hus
band' I shut my lips suddenly to keep from
add.ng:
"She makes her sin and her shame
an excuse for seeing you, a claim upon
your sympathy!' Ugh!"
Aloud, I concluded:
' Mother will not give the baby up."
"It would, of course, be a good thins
for the child's own mother," Bob pro
tested. "Nonsense! Katherine isn't fit "
But what use are words in a great
emotional crisis?
I -woulrf.net enlighten Bob as to Miss
Miller's character. -1 couldn't, I t'i
myself, because he didn't care to have
the. truth about her! If he were curi
ovi.i about any phase of it, let him in

have done, 1 added bitterly:

"She's a sure enough beauty, then!"

Plainly,' fate had tossed a new stake

A MOTHER'S LOAN
BY DR. JAMES I. VANCE
It was a loan of life. The mother
lent her son to God, and the loan was
for h'fe. Thus runs the story of Han
nah and Samuel. '"For this child I
prayed, nnj the Lord hath given me
my petition which I asked of Him;
therefore, also. I have lent him to the
Lord; as Ions as he liveth shall he be
cnt to the Lord." Did she have any
right to negotiate such a loan? Is it
olng too far for even a mother to try
to shunt life into a particular groove.
It would fecm that a mother should
possess some rights and some author
ity. We' vaguely recognize that she
has, for no man ever gets so high and
mighty but he retains a sneaking con
viction that his mother has authority
to take him down. . At one of their
annual gatherings, the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers proposed this
toast: "Our mothers those faithful
tenders, .that never misplaced a
switch!" Surely after all the sacri
fices a mother makes for a child, it i3
not sacrilege for bcr faith to lay him
on God's altar and say : "He is thine."
It is a great thing for a mother to
do. Would that more would follov
petition -wth dedication! It is some
thing to clamor at God s aitar tor what
He can do for your child; it is greater
to be concerned with what your Child
can do for God and his generation. For
after all, destiny Is not determined so
much by the gains wc acquire as by
the service we render. No, a mothec
does not go too far who dedicates her

ehi'ld to some great, unselfish task,
and who seeks to direct his choice
thither.
Perhaps some may feel that It is
rough on Samuel. Should not one be
left fre to choose his own career?
Was not religion crowded in on him
overmuch? His individuality was 'dis
regarded. His personality was not al
low 1 to develop according to -his per
sonal preferences. Some men talk this
way about the parental love and faith
which sought to steer their lives God
ward. They are bad now because they
had religion rammed down :n their
childhood. One wonders what saints
these worthies might have become if
only they had been let run wild. If
Samuel ever felt this way about his
mother, he was not graceless enough to
say so. No ooubt ho had abundant op
portunity later to choose for himself,
but he validated his mother's loan.
Children have their rights, and they
are to be respected. But parents have
a responsibility, and it is not to bo
shirked. Life is a Ftrancce and complex
thing. Character is played upon .by
myriads of subtle influences. It is not
an accident that the child Is bound to
his mother during life's most formative
period. It is that the poter may fash
ion the clay for shupe and use.
