PROF. PECK VS.. DINAH sTURGIs.
They Cross Pens over the Editors
Article ON Maids and Mothers

Prof Peck, OF Columbia university, must
feel much like man chased by a woman
with a broom-stick. Dinah Sturgis, in the
February Gentlewoman. takes after the pro-
fessor and editor of The Bookman for his
article on Maids and Mothers" -" which, his
critic says is calculated to make feminine
Rome howl"
The Overtaught Woman" is the special
topic, and Prof. Peck not only does not be-
1ieve women capable Of acquiring the highest
education but accuses them of lowering
men S mental standards and achievements by
their efforts to do so. Some little time ago,
in the same magazine, he analyZed the fasci-
mating woman, and declared at that time that
she-the fascinating woman-never knew
a great deal of book learning. Prof. Peck
takes himself very seriously, and writes we'll.
He hits a great many nails on the head and
drives them in straight, and what he says is
true so far as it goes but it doesn't quite
cover the ground.
He persists, as do most men, in viewing not
only all men, but all women wholly from a
masculine standpoint. Women mainly view
men from feminine point of view, and view
women, or try to, from the masculine stand
point The few exceptions among women
who view themselves from feminine stand
point are more less bassed undoubtedly.
Still, who shall say that they haven't right
to their own opinions? It never seems to
occur to women's masculine critics that a
woman has any right to do what she wants
to do Just for the sake of doing it, Men are
forever telling women how they ought to live
for men; how they best please-mcn /;
how to be fasciHating-to men
Pref. Peck is now trying to induce women
to give up working in the professions and
sciences, ETC., so men shall not come down
to their inferior feminine level of mentality.
Bless US and save US,
Poor men. poor dearsi Poor, dear mas
culine critics. Don't worry. Most women ex-
ist only to please you. For sweet PHYS sake
don't waste SO much time and trouble trying
. to prove to women that domesticity and
motherhood, and to be fascinating-to men,
their sole functions in this life. Most
women believe it. Even when they are no
more suited to domesticity than Prof Peck is
for being valet; even when nature, who
does make horrible blunders, has decreed that
motherhood shall be lifelong invalidism and
misery If not death-dealng. still most
women, more or less cheerfully, do their duty
in the sphere in which man is willing they
should live, move and have their being
But the few women. the exceptions who
but prove the rule; don't mind them. Prof
Peck They are selfish creatures; they have
made up their minds to have their own way
and they want TO experiment with ways to
