From this group of about a thousand salaries, which we believe
are fairly representative, it is apparent that the college-trained
woman in secretarial service begins at a uniformly higher salary
and advances more rapidly than the woman without such train-
ing. Although the woman with advanced education may not
necessarily be able to use her tools, stenography and typewriting,
as skilfully as the girl who has taken up her technical training
younger, the fact that she is more mature in years at the time
she enters upon her vocation and is better equipped with a broad
fundamental education has proved that she is more able to do
constructive, individual, systematic, and conscientious work.
