Training for Girls.



In these days every middle-class mother
ought to train her girls to do something
which is Of marketable value. As it is, they
are often not even trained for marriage.
They know nothing-nothing about house
work, servants, buying, selling, health OF
children, their own health, economy,
method, neatness, order--all is happy-go-
lucky with them. hail the better system
of education prevalent at our high schools
and others under government inspection;
but technical training Of all kinds for girls
is quite left out If girl doesn't marry, she
ought to be able to turn her hand to some
thing.
Our social feeling is quite false Ipon this
question Everything is mira dig. Young
la1ies with nothing year may do all sorts
of things for their amusement, bnt they
must not do the very same things syste-
matically for money For instance, a
girl will paint her own bedroom
doors with flowers in panels, will
pick out the cornice of her mothers
drawing-room or will gild her pic.
ture frames; but suggest that she should
train herself as house highart decorator,
and she would no more sit upon a ladder in
some one else's house and pick out the oornice
or paint flower wreath on the ceiling for
money than she would fly. That would be
mira dig. Therefore, girls are out from
many industries from which they might
qualify themselves, and turn TO in an emery
