FAIRIES FOR GRADUATES The most interesting, the most im¬ portant event of the week in the clos¬ ing of school, and the graduation of fourteen charming young girls and seventeen fine young men; and the old question comes up again, What will they do?” The girls no longer "stay put” as their grand mothers did. The girl of today wants to do things. She wants to go out into the world to work or have a career, just as the boy graduate does. Some of them, we are sure, will go to college before choosing their life work. But there are those who will not have the advantage or opportunity of training j themselves for a higher calling. j These young people are apt to choose i their work by guess or chance, and become square pegs in round holes. Wouldn’t it be fine if some Good Fairy would walk beside them and show them the right way and help j them stand over the the threshold hard places of their until chosen they i on career? Since our Fairies are on a vacation we will do the next best thing. We pat them on the back for their splen did work and wish them happiness and success in this new, strange life that has no school bells and is with out report cards.
