to be thoroughly successful. 1t is expect
ed hat at the end ofthe first year each pupil
will be able to cut and make fine shirt.
The instruction will be continued through
the four years of the course. Here is good
sense. This Is the kind Of education we
are in favor of for our girls. They should
be taught TO do all kinds of woman's
work, and taught to do it we'll. 1t is all
right for our daughters to understand the
finer plishments, but if they can
not have all, they should be taught the
necessaries OF life's work. To know how
to keep the house we'll will do vastly
more toward making the home happy
than all the fancy needlework, sculptur'
ing, painting, music and the like, that
whole lifetime could crowd into wD

things, mothers, and then teach her that
it is an honor, and not degradation, to
do them. Teach her that her life's happi.
ness depends upon it, that her l,fe's hap
p;ness is born in and comes from the home
and that love often goes out of the window
of the slovenly home. The woman who
can manage from a perfect knowledge,
her home economically and with wisdom
in all the various duties which are ever
before the wife and housekeeper, will II
all probability, keep to the end Of life the
warm and abiding love Of her husband,
and her children's children will rise uI
