Vocational Guidance for Girls

The novel «Vocational Guidance for Girls» is the work of homemaker, wife, mother, teacher, writer, and administrator, Mrs. Marguerite Dickson. She writes to introduce teachers and mothers to the very difficult problems of planning wisely big life careers for girls. Mrs. Dickson was a teacher for seven years in the grades in the city of New York. She then became the partner of a superintendent of schools in the business of making a home. In these early homemaking years there came from the pen of Mrs. Dickson a series of historical books for the grades which have placed her among the leading educational writers of the country. During the long sickness of her husband she filled for a while two administrative positions—homemaker and superintendent of schools.
