GIRLSj SHOULD CHOOSE A VOCATION CARD OF THANKS Common .=ense dictates that it is advisable for girls of to-day, as well as for boys, to choose a vocation. The fact that more than eight million women in the United States are s-ainfully employed stands as plroof of the fact, that one out of every four women is engaged in an occupation for which she is paid. .Since so many women, either from choice or necessity, go into renumerative em- ployment, it is important for every girl to face the question of a vocation and train for one. Life is fuH of un- expected changes. Any girl is wise j whir prepare herScf to be self-support ing. â€" Mary Anderson, Director, Wo- men's Bureau, U. S. Department of Labor. Mt. and Urs. S.
