Mothers Should Not Try to Make Matches

To make this girl more attractive
In the eyes of men she is bedeCked in
clothes that cost incredible sacrifices
from the father, who tolls far beyond
his strength to pay for them, from
the mother who sews her fingers to
the bone mending, altering, trying to
disguise home made froCks so they
will look like Paris CONNECTIONS and
from the younger members Of the
family who are half-starved in order
that the beautiful sister may go forth
deCked ont like solomon In all his
glory.
Groomed as a prize nag is for the
horse show, the old Girl is taken to
parties, To- summer resorts, to winter
resorts, wherever there is a posibil-
ity OF eligible men, and she knows,
and they know, that she is for sale to
the highest bidder
Early and late il is ground into her
consciousness that she must marry.
that she must marry rich, if she pos
sibly can, but II she can't she must
manage by hook or crook TO marry
some man who can support her, and
get ont of the way so that the next
sister may have her turn also at the
| husband chase.
Now | ask you which Of these two
girls do you think more admirable
| The independent, wholesome, little
working girl, doing something useful
: In the world, ready 20 marry If the
right man comes along and wins her
heart but not forced into an uuloved
marriage because she has 10 have
some one 70 support her
or do YOU admire most the girl who
Is flung at mems heads, the girl who
is being as shamelessly exploited he
fore men as If she were a prize ami
NAL, the girl with whom marriage will
! be nothing but a graft, and who must
take a husband whether she wants
him or not because she has no way Of
supporting HERSELF
Don't you think that the new way
IS an improvement over the old, and
that the new girl is Just abou the
greatest modern invention
