A tabulation of the first choice of occupations made by Pittsburgh high school pupils last year seemed to indicate, especially in the case of the girls, a need for a greater knowledge of the variety of careers open to them. Existing lists were either out of date, too brief, or not altogether adapted to the purpose. This bibliography is designed to furnish a list of books and magazine articles in which boys and girls may find re- liable information presented in an interesting form. In com- piling it all available lists have been consulted, especially the very full recent volume by Frederick J. Allen, "A Guide to the Study of Occupations." Since most of the books referred to give information about several occupations, repetition has been avoided by arranging the material in t\YO sections. One gives an alphabetical list of occupations, indicating under each the books and magazines in which information may be found. The other lists alphabetically all the books referred to, with a descriptive note about each. Each magazine article treats of a single occupation and is therefore entered in full, with the descriptive note, under the occupation. The teacher or counselor who desires suggestions for mak- ing the best use of the material gathered together here, is referred to the abundant literature of vocational guidance. One of the best bibliographies on that subject is one compiled by J. M. Brewer and R. W. Kelly, under the title "A Selected Critical Bibliography of Vocational Guidance." Other useful books are Brewer's ''Vocational Guidance Movement," Davis's "Vocational and Moral Guidance," and Bloomfield's ''Youth, School and Vocation." John H. Leete, November 15, 192 1. Director.
