THE COLLEGE NEWS.

PERSONALITY KEYNOTE





‘day afternoon in Taylor to Miss Jackson's
account of how to make good in the busi-
ness world gasped with surprise when
Miss Jackson announced that one organi-
zation “couldn’t employ women who wore
tortoise shell glasses. It made them too
conspicuous”. The statement was in a
line with the emphasis constantly placed

| by Miss Jackson, Head-of the Appoint-

ment Bureau of the Women’s Educational
and Industrial Bureau, on personality.
Her talk on Business was the second in
the series of vocational conferences being
given here this year under the auspices of
ithe Bryn Mawr Appointment Bureau.
Miss Jackson comes again in February.
From the various letters read by Miss
Jackson from women working in places
such as the Guarantee Trust Company,
New York, and from men employing a
large number of women, it appears that

tact, resource, initiative, and judgment
are the qualities required rather than ex-
perience in the special line of work. The
pay is usually $15 a week in New York
and $12 in Boston. In the Guarantee
Trust Company college women go in on
the same basis as men, training, a good
chance of advancement, $6 a week and
your lunch. No stenography is required.
