Takes Chance—Winning “It was the most serious decision of my life,” said Miss Cowan. “It meant giving up a regular salary to work on a commission basis in an absolutely new field?

servative, but feminine in her dess, anu pxeusanc m ner manner, she makes you feel at once her genuine interest in life, in its problems, and m people. “i am a social service worker for ‘he well-to-ao,” she said. “I call myself a financial diagnostician, and i nave to know the whole financial sivaa,ion bexore i can prescrioe lor the case intelligently.” Shows Wile’s Viewpoint Miss Cowan feels that her feminity is an asset rather tnan a handicap in selling life insurance. In approaching men, she can help them get the viewpoint of their wives. “‘More and more women are buying life insurance,’ ’she said, “and they are buying larger amounts. Once it was inought mat a woman had no economic value, but in the event of ner ueath, her husband is forced to marry again, for no servant will work for him as cheaply as win his wite.” In Miss Cowan’s opinion, woman’s discovery that she had economic vaiUe, is responsible for her changed status in the home and in business today. 200 DOLLS ARE READY FOR CHRISTMAS POOR Two hundred dolls donated by Washington High School pupils and faculty will be distributed by the school among the Hawthorne Settlement, the Riley Hospital and Indianapolis Orphanage charges.
