What is needed Isl that at home
and at school, our girls are
taught that to shine in social
circles or to roll in wealth is not
the highest aim of womenhood.
But let them be taught to make a
home joyful and happy and yet be
prepared, if necessary. for LIES
bitterest struggles. Let them
understand thoroughly the de-
tails of everyday life, the value
of all kinds of com modities used
daily, how to make check, draft
note and receipt. Let them be
told truth about themselves and
about the world. They should
know something about the
snares and pitfalls that beset
them.
When one is inclined to worry,
the remark of an old lady should
be recalled. Yes dearies; I've
had an awful heap of trouble in
my time, and most of it never
happened"
