Il dissent from the view that a col

emphatically 1T may be that the
tastes that lead persons TO seek aca-

can hardly be true.
1T is said that women are not going
into the professions, and so that bust
ness education is not necessary for
women who look forward to marriage
and motherhood as the chief end Of
woman.
Il utterly dissent from this view. as
! do from the view that an academic
education robs a woman Of her charm
and gives her an intellectual inde-
pendence that is inconsistent with be-
ing a good wife and mother.

to make a good companion to train

should have had the advantage of a

Il am quite ready and willing to con-
cede that marriage and motherhood are
the normal status OF woman. and that
other things being equal, she is happier
in that condition than IN any other.
But this is far from saying that a
woman's life is a failure because she
is not married and that her life may not
be a failure because she IS married. The
home and the family are the nucleus of
the highest happiness, but If cIrcum-
