WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-Reading
law broadens a man; don't see why
it shouldn't broaden a woman.
The idea that when a woman is
married her education is finished Is
wrong.
think a woman can best spend heI
time raising large family; but
don't think a woman is prepared tc
raise a family unless her education
has been rather broad.

Mcclure, wife of Congressman Bird
MCGUIRE, of the First Oklahoma Dis
trict, who is regularly attending reel
tations as a law student in George
Washington University.
Mrs. Mcguire has started out ia
take a law course, not. as has been
suggested, that she may become the
active professional partner of her
husband, but because it interests her
to study the subject.
