DIR. HOLLAND, in dealing with topics
of the time, has come inevitably upon that
aeprayating one of domestic service, In
which, as he truly says, American lille is
more "cursed by ignorance and lack OF
skilp, than in any other department.
aThere are thousands Of families" he adds,
sswho have no satisfactory service from
wears end to years end. The servants
come and 90, and lie and waste, and spoil
and quarrel and steal. They have no 10y
ally, no faithfulness, no carefulness, no
xiii to do the duties which they UNDER
take and which they loudly and confident
ly profess to understand. Their ignorance
is only matched by their insolence. They
have no disposition to learn, no ambition to
become excellent, no desireto please, and no
wish to remain for any considerable length
of time in one place." For this all-per-
vading curse, DIR. Holland suggests two
remedies: One is school for instruction
10 domestics and the other, and the pre-
liminary one, is the establishment by the
city of "a bureau of registry, which would
receive no names but those of men and
women who can establish, by the most re-
liable testimony, their competency in the
different departments of domestic service,
and so make 1t prime OBJECT Win all SER
wants to get their names upon it, they
would open way out of our dlffi-
oulties. The trouble is that no one
is responsible now for anything. A
good-natured mistress gives her good
natured servant character which does not
belong to her, and on this she trades. A
bureau like the one we propose could be
made self-supporting, and do incalculable
good. 1t should be made so high an honor
to get place upon this registry, and SO
sure guarantee Of good wages and per-
manent service, that motive for excel
lence is held constantly before those who
expect to rely upon service for livell-
hood. Then those who are willing to pay
good wages for good service should never
resort to any other source for it. If a SER
want applies for first-class place who
cannot get her name upon the register,
she should not obtain it.
