The purpose of the organization is to "help ambitious girls to help themselves'' by opening opportunities to them whereby each girl can do the work .for which she is best adapted and thus receive the largest monetary returns for time and effort expended. It is the aim of this Association to give to any untrained high school graduate work which will net enough money during her summer vacation to pay her entire college expenses for the remainder of the year. A large number of ladies and business men of Cook County very generously responded to a call made by this Association for co-operation in our work and have thus made possible the Cook County Cook Book, containing almost twice the number of tested, practical recipes to be found in the average cook book on the market selling for one-half the price. It is compiled, edited, and sold by college girls (working under the direction of the Associa- tion), who receive the entire profits therefrom. The Associated College Women Workers solicit the co-opera- tion of every woman in the county, and especially of those inter- ested in liiglier education for their sex. Those who have had a college education know the pleasure and benefits derived there- from. Those who have not enjoyed that privilege, have doubtless cherished the hopes for such an opportunity and know the keen disappointment which every girl must feel when unable to gratify her ambition because of insufficient means.
