"NEW BOY" IN THE T4N.
HE sEWs ON BUTTONS. MAKES OUT MENUS
AND HIRES DOMESTICs

THE new boy IS OF later origin than the new
woman" said Mrs. Joseph V. Witherbee who
lectured recently in Brooklyn. He can make his
own bed buttons his own clothing cook
his own breakfast and wash the dishes If neces-
saTy, and he is no longer considered sissy for so
doing. He can carry on successfully a bachelor
establishment for his father himself make ont
the menus hire the domcstics and even do his ma ~
socially without losing his place among the first six
In school.
The new boy is the result of a growing belief
among mothers and educators that domestic train
ing is just good for boys as for girls They
argue that a domestic trained boy makes the hest
kind Of "A husband. and that the brother who 10
obliged occasionally TO make his own bed or boil
will not look down his sister for DOING
these same things. Also. that the girl who can use
her brothers kit of tools will no longer consider
him a superior being because the tools are his
property rather than hers. Again, the advocates
of domestic training for boys say that while there
will always he n division of occupations In the
family in society, there is this difference In the
family-that in those occupations which relate to
the common life there ought be a common per
foTma nee. else the division of labor will result in
division of feeling and OF thought"
