We clip the following from a SPLEEN
did editorial in the Shelby County
Republican on The Country Girls: We
think the girl ought to be sent to the
higher schools with her brother. She
ought, if she cannot be sent to school,
to be provided with good books, few
excellent magazines, some good pic
lures, careful and sensible spiritual
training. So far as habits of industry
are concerned, the country girl will
agree with US that she does not stand
in need of them to any alarming extent.
The truth of the matter is the girl on
the farm is working too hard. her life
is made too severe. She has little OPP
portunity for the training of her social
instinct, for intellectual culture. for
the development of the finer sensibil-
tiles, without which woman is not wo-
man. She is a newer Of wood and a
