Where did you drop from? Give me just a minute while I finish this letter. Let me see. Where was I?" The secretary read in a dull, secretarial voice: "'Thousblinsoldiersorphs wem'sdo'll we can." "Oh yes," said Charity. "'You have never failed to respond to such an appeal, comma; no, semicolon; no, period. 'So I shall put you down for a subscription of dash 'how much' question-mark.

Formerly two-thirds of the positions filled by the New York Intercollegiate Bureau of Occupations were secretarial or teaching positions; now three-fourths of its applicants have been placed as physicists, chemists, office managers, sanitary experts, exhibit secretaries, and the like. The temporary positions used to outnumber the permanent placements; at present the reverse is true.

Dr. Cox, who has been at Lourdes for fourteen years, is a typical Englishman, ruddy, with a white moustache. His part is mostly secretarial, it seems; though he too asks questions now and again. It was he who gave me the "doctor's cross," and who later obtained for me an even more exceptional favour, of which I shall speak in the proper place.

There was enough money to give her a course in secretarial training in a women's vocational college in Boston and to support them all in economical comfort until she should be ready to begin her work.

Ruth knew that very well and did not intend the latter should happen. She had laid her plans well. She would go and take a secretarial course somewhere. She had made inquiries and found that there was always demand for secretaries and that the training did not take so long as other professional education did.
