''Posterity might say. in examining the
courses Of study in our schools to-day.
that this generation must have been

Reason Enough.
The ordinary public school education
fails In fitting girls for motherhood. Mrs.
Rigs declares. and the higher educa-
ton fails even more lamentably. That

clares. but when she marries she will
have just ordinary little babies to train
and teach and to discipline. She leaves
college unprepared for the duties that
await her."
That the theory OF ordinary public
schools. high school and college educa-
ton may be all very well. Mrs. Riggs Is
willing to admit. but a. q matter of
practical fact. she AYERS. 1t doesn't work
out.
The probable theory" she sums 1t
up. rs that q good broad system OF ed

home making and all the duties of

not bring with them-"directions' which
