We are so far from the time when older women were restricted to teaching, sewing, or finding an elderly new husband regardless of desirability, that no one need be downhearted. Older women find places in travel agencies and real estate
offices, as housemothers in college dormitories and sorority houses, as hostesses and demonstrators of new products, in certain types of social work, in lending libraries and as housekeepers and companions. They tell stories to children in libraries. They are employed in certain museums in various cities. They build themselves businesses opening and closing people's houses.

YOU want to talk to the doctor who is taking care of a relative or close friend of yours, concerning the patient's condition. WRONG: Call him at home to discuss the matter with him,
RIGHT: Call him at his office, but be considerate about how much of his time you take up, remembering that he probably has many such calls and that they are
time-consuming.

perhaps they all started young we wouldn't know, There are women well beyond the first flush of youth who have fadio programs. Some are in the fashion field, some who do landscape gardening or decorating, some in the field of advertising. Innumerable older women have built up secretarial businesses of their own. There is no age limit on writing or painting or designing. Research workers don't have to be young. Getting any of these jobs take enterprise and some may take pull. Holding one takes determination. Some require genuine talent, But all of them have been done by older women and can be done by them again, though you yourself will have to choose the one you are best suited to succeed in. Do a little reading up on the problem as a whole before making up your mind what you would like to do. many books in the libraries that will help—books on the general subject of jobs for the older woman, books on how to
prepare for finding a job, books |
on the specific jobs themselves. ~ » ” WE ALSO SUGGEST that you consider your appearance carefully, if you're going jobhunting. It may make all the difference. Smart clothes, attractive make-up, a good hairdo may well help you to get a job that would never be given to a woman who had let herself go.
