Show MAKE THE BEST WAITRESSES College Girls Employed to Exclusion of All Others In Mountain Hostelry. There Is a hotel up In the White mountains that has only college girls as waitresses. There are more than fifty such girls employed In the hotel, and Gen. M. C. Wentworth, proprietor proprie-tor of the hostelry, now says he would Q,t have any other kind of servants. tie has applications from Wellesley, Smith. Vassar, Wells and many other girls' colleges for positions as waitresses, wait-resses, and. In fact, has so many candidates can-didates he selects his help by a most rigorous examination. The girls are on duty only for breakfast, luncheon and dinner, and have the rest of the day absolutely free. As the majority of these girls rank high In class, and as many children are In the hotel with their parents, they have abundant abund-ant time to do tutoring in the summer and make large fees in that way. General Wentworth is satisfied with tho arrangement and usually encourages encour-ages th girls to make all the money they can. He has found his scheme successful and observes his guests lnvaribly are satisfied. "There Is a superstition," said Wentworth, "a college col-lege education unfits a girl for efficient effi-cient work, but this is nonsense. I have had experience with all kinds of servants, and if I am given my choice I invariably pick the college girl. Not only does the college girl attend to her work better than the ordinary servant, but her work Is much more finished. She has a better Idea of what Is required and she has a better idea of the place of work In the world." |
