Most pitiful is their case if their early training has not prepared them against such a contingency. No young woman's schooling should be considered finished until she has received the special training in some line of work that could, in case of need, be readily turned into a means of selffsupport. It is the duty of parents-one that cannot be urged too strongly upon them-to make provision for this need in planning for the education of their daughters. This special training should follow the completion of the highf school course or of its equivalent. Secretarial Course This course is designed to it young women to fill positions as private secretaries, and thus to open for them a door into a Held of service in which they may always command good positions.

Graduate Department -This department meets the needs of a large class of High School Graduates who do not plan to go to College. It offers them the op- portunity to spend a very profitable year or two in further equipping themselves for life, while at the same time enjoying the cultural and social advantages of boardingfschool life. The student may elect to continue the pursuit of some of the academic subjects which have especially interested her in High School and combine with them the study of Music, or Home Eco' nomics, or Stenography and Typewriting, or she may choose to take an advanced course in Household Economics or in Secretarial studies. Some will elect one or another of the following courses in their en' tirety, others will want a combination of work. There is suliicient flexibility in this department to meet a wide range of needs. Advanced Academic Course The following is a suggestive outline of a course covering two years. It is suiliciently elastic to meet a wide range of needs. fPage Thirty-tbreej
