Excerpt from Helps for Ambitious Girls Women's clubs pay no wages - the Ambitious Girl should remember that. Organization is a'dmirable, but it has no pay-roll; it is a side issue. The whole Federa tion of Women's Clubs is of less importance to a girl than her Own affairs. A club is easily joined, but em ployment must be prepared for and sought for. The new woman exists only in the comic newspapers; we must learn to paint the lily and gild refined gold before we can improve upon the kind of woman our mothers were. The ambitious boy and the ambitious girl go into the world Side by Side, and in many cases they will go hand in hand. When they join hands their first effort will be to establish a home, and that is girl's work. A girl with a dollar can make a more homelike home than a man with a million. Work brings money, but only the home brings happiness. And the whole field of endeavor is Open to the Ambitious Girl. It is not all her boys, but all her children, - boys and girls alike, - that Nature fits with something to do.
