WOMEN IN BUSINESS.
By Edith Beesley
THE WORLD OF WOMEN
Woman's entry Into business life has been revolutionary. The break-up of the old order of things, due to the war, gave wo- man her opportunity, and ahe grasped it eagerly. The affect can now be seen in her succeнa in nearly every branch of commercial life.
This state of affairs is not a challenge to men, but rather a co-! operative participation in the nation's work. It is really a ro- turn to primitive times when men and women worked elde by side to retain their place in the early struggles of life.

No woman who reads "WO- man and Labour" cau be unaffect ed by the tremendous sincerity of its writer, nor remain unconscious of the future place of women in
| the work of the world.
These two books, showing how woman has finally triumphed after ages of struggle to gain recogni. tion, must create confidence in anyone who wishes to take her place in mudern business,
The position of the womu who has the goods and the gifts to offer is nasured, in spite of the obstacles which still linger in her puth. She is gradually turning these obstacles into opportunities,
