mployment For Sherman Girls HE GIRLS' placement d.e- partment was organized as an inde- pendent function in 1912 when the de- mand for Sherman girls fo r work in homes had come to require close super- vision. At that time Miss Orington Iewett was appointed girls' outing matron. Miss Iewett was succceed- ed in this work in 1921 by Mrs. EttaiM. Placement - Oafing Vocational Guidance Commiffee: Emma C. Beeler, head of department, Olive E. Ellis, Etta M. Long. Long, present outing matron. .The same plan is followed in the girls' department as in the boys' of handling all details connected with employment of students and collecting their wages. Two-thirds of the earnings are deposited in the bank as a trust fund to be used as individual needs may arise or at graduation. One-third goes im- mediately to the student for personal use as may be wished. Many Sherman girls have secured placement in homes where they have earned their room and board and spending money while attending public schools. In 1928 there were 120 girls in such positions, in 1929 there were 1043 the pres- ent year only 17. These figures show all too well the effect of the depression on Sherman students' earnings. However, the present law requiring that a girl shall be 16 years of ,age before being employed and the decrease in the en- rollment have also been factors in reducing the total earnings. While money earned is important the educational value oflthe outing plan in making contacts with homes, schools of Southern California, and the vocations in which they are training has proved of even greater value. Many instances are of record where these contacts have meant permanent employ- ment for students on completing their school work. ' 94 -. -, ,5 . ii ' y .
