EDUCATION OF WOMEN,
Not the Cause of More
Frequent Divorces, but
fhe Occasion.
By LAURA DRAKE Gilt, pEANoF
81. IS BARNARD &c CoLLi1GHrss...

Heyond dispute, a crisis in FAM
lily lite exists, and the greater
education of women is said to be
its cause. Shall we not rather
call it the occasion? The cause is
still deeper. 1t is the unending
struggle between authority and
autonomy. ~ ~ - IS "a. = :.
The present situation seems to
be merely the chaos of transition
it corresponds to the stage of an
archy by which government must
too often pass from absolute
monarchy to democracy-or to
the agnosticism by which relig-
ion breaks the chains of an arti-
fetal authority before it acknowl-
edges the true authority of vir-
tue and communion.
The present family crisis is un-
doubetdly occasioned by the
greater education and conseqent
economic independence of women
in general; it is, however, mani
tested through individual women
who share the economic free
dom, but lack the discipline of
education. Frequent divorce is
the result of education of women
as refracted through the medium
of uneducated women. They
grasp the freedom of escape from
an unwise marriage, yet lack the
training to make a wise marri-
age.
In a wide acquaintance with
college women l have personally
known only one case of divorce.
This was carried through without
scandal or any offense to public
morals. Among high school
graduates a limited inquiry would
indicate small percentage Of
divorce. 1t is the girls of luxu-
rious homes of whom little effort
is demanded. The girls of the
middle class, whose fathers sup
port them in ease, but fail to
educate them for service; the
girls of the laboring classes, with
limited training and heavy bur-
dens these girls make the wom-
en- in whose lives the restless
spirit of the times may work sad
havoc. They have not been
trained to look upon marriage as
an opportunity to escape self
support. They have the courage
and decency to demand ordinary
loyalty and fair play from men
| yet they often fail to realize theil
own obligations.
We need, then, not less chanc,
of escape from intolerable condi
tions, but a truer conception o.
family dignity: not less econom
ic independence for women, bu
more sense of it's responsibility
not less education for women, bu
more education for all women.

BYRoBERT HICHENs.

Many people assume certain
manners as they assume certain
clothes. aad change these man
ners more seldom than they
change their clothes. Some think
1t ngratiating to be perky.
Others think it more graceful to
be dfooping and melancholy, to
gaze Wfstfully, walk mournfully,
and sit as if before the baked
meats of a funeral feast. But

not only the members Of the At

citizen of the city ant. the entire
commonwealth is giving more
time and attention to the matter
of immigration to the South than
ever before and for the very best
ofsreasons. One of the witness
es before the interstate commits
sion the other day while on the
stand said that the mill men of
the South today felt that they
could not conscientiously accept
money for the building of more
mills as investments. More than
this, there were thousands of
spindles la the mills OF the South
today that were remaining idle
not because of any lack of or.
ders, but because the hands to
run these spindles could not be
secured.
While orders were coming In
from every side and the busi-
ness interests and prospects of
the South were without prece-
dent and the best yet to come,
the reason for not building more
mills was again the same--the in
ability to- secure operatives to
run the mills when finished.
Every report of Section Direct
or Marbury in the weekly reports
for the government for the State
of Georgia, since the middle of
June has shown that cotton was
in the fields going to absolute
waste because of the inability of
the farmers and planters to Sc
cure labor for the chopping of
the cotton. This lack of labor is
not confined to certain sections
of Georgia, but it is prevalent
over the state and the entire
southeast as we'll. The fearful
cost resulting from this cause
has been sufficient to attract the
most serious attention of the gov
ernment as we'll as the farmers
and the mill men.
Again and again wages of ST..
rs have been offered with board
and in some cases $1.50, but COM
plants were made that the ne
groes insisted on working but a
day or two and then hurrying to
the cities and towns, from which
they refused to go to the fields
even when wagons were sent
and special dishes in the way Of
board promised. When hands
were secured at the end of -four
or five days they would pretend
sickness or some other excuse
and with their money leave the
cotton fields but little better of
than if they had not been visited
by these negroes that pass from
the country to the city in
night.

1t abounds in pictorial and scenic
representations of truth. These
are effective vehicles for the hui
man mind in its early stages of de-
velopment, and when unprepared
to receive the truth in abstract
form. They also give that pleas
ing variety of style which makes
the Bible the most fascinating
book in the world. These visions
appear in a series of dissolving
views. Abraham, at time Of ev-
ening sacrifice, sees the Divine
presence under the appearance of
a smoking furnace and a burning
lamp. Jacob looks up from his
stony pillow and sees a staircase
to heaven, on which ministering
spirits appear. Zechariah sees a
golden lamp, into which the Iiv-
ing olive-trees pour their oil in
Ceaseless stream. Daniel sees the
Ancient of Days, and Isaiah the
Lord enthroned and the seraphim
adoring, Peter has his vision on
the housetop, and Johns Revela-
ton is one book Of visions.
But all dreamers yield the palm
to Ezekiel, who has been apt1y
called the Dante Of the Bible.
With unerring vision he sees the
spiritual side Of material things,
and makes them as they really
are, the vehicle Of celestial truth,
experience, relation and destiny.
Among the riches of his supernat-
ural sight the River of Saliva
ton" stands first for transparent
simplicity.
1t is not strange that Ezekiel,
the priest, used as he was to the
ritual and the sacred courts, mag
nifes the temple and looks upon
it as the reservoir Of grace, whence
is to issue the means of the worlds
refreshment and cleansing. But
the temple was only Gods house,
so what came from the. temple
came from God. This truth was
never obscured in the Hebrew
mind.
In certain sense, and to a GER
tain degree, the kingdom of heav-
Ell was with the Jews under the
Old Dispensation The apostle
says the oracles of God were COM
nlitted to them. AS their religion
found its chief expression in their
temple, priesthood, and ritual, the
kingdom Of heaven may be said to
have been in their temple as a
sealed fountain. Here was no
Partially, however. This was the
Divine method. The Hebrew ma
ton was appointed to be the al
moner Of grace to all. In them all
nations were to be blessed. And
so the prophet sees in the fullness
of time little rill of the pent-up
salvation issuing out from under
the threshold of the house of God
in Zion. The length and breadth
of the stream can be measured
with historic accuracy. By sue
cessive stages the rill becomes
the river. Not only are the wat
ers abundant. They are curative
as we'll. The desert shall bios
som, and the salt sea shall be heal
ed. Everything lives where the
water comes. Trees shall grow
upon the banks whose fruit shall
be for meat and whose leaf shall
be medicine.
