Inc theme on wnich they write Is the
advantages OF the colonies for edu'
Gated women. The ground fact OF the
situation Is that In this country there
Is surplus OF females. Biologists tell
us that strong race always produces
more females than males. and when
males preponderate 1t Is sign OF de-
cay. So there Is no reason for ap-
prehension about the fact that the
proportion OF girtbabies that come
into the world In England Is greater
than that OF boy-babies. Further, the
numerical difference between the
sexes greatly increases as time goes
on. probably because more men go
abroad either to the colonies or to
seek their fortune In some other way.
1t Is too often thought that the col.
onies are only good for the women
who are prepared to go to the back
woods and perform work compared to
which the work OF domestic service is
light. This Is not the case. There
