Washington Guest
Lists Good Points
Favoring Prejudice
"I'm in favor of prejudices—pre
serving them and making them
grow," stated Mrs. Ethel B. Gil
bert of the Office of Industry,
Washington, in her talk to coeds
which opened the Mortar Board's
Leadership Day Tuesday.
•(Mrs. Gilbert listed her preju
dices as being in favor the future,
in favor of no inherent superiority
of race, nation, country, or sex
over any other, in favor of demo
cracy, and in favor of women.
. "We must not look back on
former days as the 'golden age' or
'the good old days', the speaker
explained. "The future is most
important, the days to come will
-be exciting."
Mrs. Gilbert stated that women
by nature can excel in particular
jobs better than men. Women
have always been able to go in
and clean up, and they are never
discouraged, she continued.
. The speaker, who is in charge
of 500 committees, outlined the
three areas •of work. One works
with people; ideas, or things. Some
persons, are able to work with all
.three types.
Mrs. Gilbert worked her way
• through Albion College. Winning
of esay and debate contests helped
her out with expenses. She was
• the first woman member of Delta
Sigma Rho, national debate hon
orary,and graduated as valedic=
torian.
