One hundred of these girl workers are te have the opportunity seen for the realization of these dreams in the course of study at the Scheel for Women Workers in Industry, which was established last summer by Dr. M. Carey Themas, president of Bryn Mawr College. The course is the first step of edu cation for adult workers at a col lege in this country. It was de clared a tremendous success last ummer, and has been much mere thoroughly worked out for this sea ion which commences June 14. Among the girls awarded the chelarships, which are maintained by industrial groups and individuals at $200 each, are nine Philadelphia girls. These girU in their different places of work are aquiver at the thought of coming in contact with college people and books and of being at the lovely Bryn Mawr of which they have heard. But the tre-' mendeus thing about them is that net in one instance de they seek this opportunity for self-aggrandizement. Net one wishes te ape the man ners of luxury and pleasure. Back, back te the sweat and toil they in tend te go. But and here is their dream they want te go se that they can return equipped te be useful in solving the problems which they knew all tee well exist in their , branches of labor. ,, Their stanchness is inspiring. $ Girl's Dreams Ferm It 'THE aim and purpose of the course for working girls are: Te show literature net only as a stimulus te imagination, an ap peal te the emotions, a thing of beauty, but as a vehicle for the ideas and ideals which men live by in short, when the thinking it codifies is sound and fine, as a guide te life. v Te show literature as a reflec tion of the steady march of man, the medium whifh bears witness te impreiement in social condi tions, a yearning for reforms, and an increasing recognition of the rightt of the working man. With this point of view, liter ature becomes, instead of some thing dead and buried in books, i living sentient thing, keenly sensitive te changing opinions, itself the voice of men who have struggled themsehes, or barring that, have a sympathetic eye te the struggle.
