The Pictorial Value Of House Uniforms

There are many conservative and
equally smart women who cling to
black for afternoon and dinner SER
vice. They allow their maids to vary
their morning uniforms by wearing
white, pink or blue linen or chambray.
The apron is most important Access
sorry in the maids outfit. The tub
dresses in the morning demand a hem
stitched white linen apron, the bib
being carefully and trinity fitted 70 the
figure. The collar and cuffs naturally
match the apron in material.
As the washing Of these tub dresses
is expensive, many housekeepers have
their maids day dresses made Of q
softer material easy to wash, thus
making il possible for the servants 10
do the washing themselves. Some
women. on the other hand, prefer their
maids to wear white wash dresses all
day through the entire season. There
are establishments in which white
brilliantine Is used for the morning
and black for the afternoon and even
ing. Fancy pins or large, conspicuous
hair ornaments or any fancy touches
in the way of color should never be
allowed 70 appear on . maids serving

Two hundred children, descendants
of men and women distinguished in Co.
lonial times, will impersonate their an
cestors next Thursday afternoon at
the Century Theatre in play given for
the benefit Of the Lafayette fund. The
play, written by John J. Chapman, is
called "The Children's Revolution"
The children had rehearsal yester-
day at the theatre, coached by Miss
Dorothy Donnelly. The big stage was
a busy place, for there were not only
the two hundred descendants Of Colonial
characters, but a group of small boys
from the New York Asylum for the
Deaf and Dumb, who are to walk on
as French troops, and the boys band
from the same institution. Besides the
play, they rehearsed several tableaus,
staged by Ben Ali Haggin, which are
to be part of the programme.
Robert E. Jones, who has staged vari-
Gus plays for Granville Barker, Is In
charge OF the settings for the play,
which includes scene at Valley Forge,
an inaugural ball and other historical
incidents. The part OF General Wash
ington will be taken by Theodore, son
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Winthrop Chanler, and
Diana, daughter of Mrs. Frederick Z.
Dalziel, will be Martha Washington.
Curly haired William Aston Chanler,
jr., is to be Lafayette.
Lafayette's aid, the captain, will be
impersonated by little Douglas Robin
son, j., and Francis, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Francis Murray, takes the part OF
John Emerson. William, son of Mr..
and Mrs. William West, will be Steu-
ben, and Richard Aldrich, jr., and Mar
garet Aldrich, children of Mr.. and Mrs.
Richard Aldrich, will be respectively
Captain Jonathan Gladding, of fam
lily that for six generations sailed their
own ships from Providence to China,
and Mrs. Benjamin Cutler.
Carroll, son of Mrs. ]. Metcalf
Thomas, is to be Charles Carroll, OF
Carrollton, one Of the signers of the
Declaration Of independence; Francis,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Francis Hillhouse,
jr., is Major Ten Brock, who was with
Washington at Valley Forge; the two
children of Mr.. and Mrs. Stowe Phelps

,HICH does civilization prefer
" 10 lose-woman's intellectual
W achievements or her children
II must choose or change It's institu-
tons TO accord with the growth oil
wonan. for as woman's horizon broad
ems she tends TO give up either one or
the other. declares that rare thing a
woman scientist. Mrs. Leta Stetter
Hollingsworth, examiner OF denclen'
children at the Department Of Puphc
Charities, boldly presented the ABOVE
momentous problem to me as the re-
suit of very cold, very scientihc psy-
Geological experiments, with men ana
women as her subjects.
To identify Mrs. Hollingsworth yet
more closely with the scientific world 1t
NAV be noted that she Is the wife OF Dr.
II L. Hollingsworth, professor OF psy-
cboIogy at Columbia University. Fur
Their. in preparing her thesis for the
decree Of Doctor Of Philosophy she has
uade an extensive study of the alleged
intellectual inferiority of women ana
N. apparent reasons ascribed for it.
As a result Of her studies, including
experiments upon many women ana
over two thousand children OF ooth
,o,es she has concluded that the vari-
Gus theories explaining the small
euopnt of intellectual distinction
achieved by women have but one cause
-"the great sex-difference in repro
dnctive function-in the fact that
women bear young and men DO not
coupled with the fact that the whole
personal care of the young has been
fastened upon women as a sequel 10
reproduction" Fearlessly she puts forth
child-bearing as woman's fundamental
handicap, adding that men OF science
ignore this as the cause of woman's
comparative lack of intellectual dis
tinction. There Is a social taboo
upon doing or saying anything that
might even remotely hint that child
bearing is a disadvantage to a woman
of intellectual ability
"Men do not care to think that
women find the bearing Of children
handicap. Therefore they ascribe other
reasons which may protect their insti-
tutions. But as society Is conducted
to-day the disadvantage is palpable.
Women cannot in most walks of
life achieve intellectual distinction
and bear children. There is tremen-
dous negative relation between the
two. The barrier arises before
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-02-26

woman reaches maturity, in snticipa-
ton. The mother must devote too
much Of her time to the mechanical
care Of her children. To make this re-
lation positive instead OF negative
should be one Of the greatest and most
earnest efforts Of modern society,"
81 am not yet in position to offer
any constructive plan, for that would
require a great deal of study" Mrs
Hollingsworth smiled, for she Is very
young to have achieved the interesting
results already accomplished by her.
"But in two modern institutions a So
luton has been found. On the stage
matters have adjusted themselves so
as to allow n woman TO have any
number Of children and still rise to
the height Of her profession. How
many singers and actresses Of fame
there are who have been successful
mothers in sddition!"
And in the most recent OF struggles,
that of the teacher-mother, Mrs. Hol-
lingsworth sees another indication Of
what conditions might be in a future
and better ordered social system. In
the public school system it is now,
by the latest ruling. made possible for
the mother to continue in her work
and not drop out Of the race.
As the profession and children sit
uation has been worked out in these
two fields, it might also adjust itself
to the demands of other pursuits in
which the intellectual woman finds
herself, thinks Mrs. Hollingsworth.
"The idea that the child is at home
is a myth" she began again. at is
at home only when it is an infant, and
anybody might take care of it, when
mother love means nothing more to it
than physical comfort When the
child is older it is at school most of
the day. The care Of the children
should be RELOCATED to experts. When
this is accomplished, and when the
bearing of children may be an inspira-
ton instead of wall, the intellectual
woman may continue both careers
more satisfactorily than she generally
fulfls either one.
"The fifteen or more women who have
achieved intellectual distinction In this
country at the present time, and, in
fact. throughout history, have had far
below the average number Of children.
This is wrong. Women who can do
things should be allowed by social and
economic conditions to have children,
too"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-02-26

The subject which first moved Mrs
Hollingsworth TO scientific investiga-
ton was the theories held by men as to
the cause of women's lack Of intel
lectual distinction. The first theory,
that women innately are less intellec-
tual than men, has been laughed away.
"When colleges were coveted by
women men Of science said that no
woman would graduate. Then, later,
that if she did she would be merely
q nervous wreck.
when men like Professor Sedg-
wick make positive statements to the
effect that women by original nature
are so conditioned intellectually that
definite limitations should be set upon
their activities they make such as
sertions entirely without basis in SCI
entifc fact" Mrs. Hollingsworth, In
presenting her thesis for the degree
OF Doctor Of Philosophy, has shown
that there Is no basis scientifically for
the theory that women because OF
functional periodicity are intellectual
ly less capable than men.
at should be understood that when
Professor Sedgwick asserts the bio
logical ineptitude and inferiority OF
women he is merely giving his per-
sonal opinion. Professor Sedgwick Is
as much entitled to his personal opin-
ion as any one else Is, and no doubt
he would admit that II he were called
upon to prove all his statements be-
fore his peers in science and to tell
upon exactly what pieces Of research
he bases his conclusions, and to pre-
sent the data in full, he could not
do So"
Science has Of late seemed to prove
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-02-26

that women have less variability than
men. But this, too, Mrs. Hollings-
worth finds unsupported by sufficient
data. Groups Of men contrasted with
groups Of women were always too
small to allow of conclusiveness. Mrs.
Hollingsworth, in her experiments upon
children and in far larger groups of
people than usually taken, finds that
women vary as greatly from the aver
age, for better or worse, as do the
men, that they are not more like one
another in tastes, aptitudes and abili-
ties than are men. THAT they seem
to have been interested in and shown
less aptitude for as many subjects as
men Is explained by the fact that
more pursuits have been easily open
to the latter. In any case, nothing in
history or in experimental science af-
firms the belief in women's intellectual
inferiority.
80 far as experimental psychology
tells u.s." she said, in conclusion,
women are as capable intellectually
as men are, and they vary as much as
men do in tastes, interests and sbili-
ties. The reason for woman's evident
failure to attain historical distinction
lies in the fact that she bears the
children, and as sequel rears them.
The effect upon history is probably
enormous. Men have lost an inesti-
mable amount of intellectual work,
and will lose very much more unless
they change their institutions, or they
will deprive the intellectual woman OF
her children.
$50 you see that society as at pres
ent instituted must tend to lose the
work of It's intellectual women, or else
lose their children. IL can afford to
lose neither" concluded Mrs. Hollings-
worth.

Wife of a Chinese Also Throws Away

dence which was presented against the
prisoners this afternoon when they were
brought before United states Commits

The Chinese were surprised in room
at the rear Of their restaurant at 18th

Revenue Collectors Glover and McDev-
itt Mrs. Blong, the white wife of one,
threw mysterious box down a hole in
the wall when the Government agents
entered. They attempted to dislodge 1t
with revolver shots, but failed.
An opium layout and large can, be-
lieved to contain opium, were found in
the place. Blong declared that this con-
tanned sauce used for making Chinese
dishes. To prove his assertion he drank
several mouthfuls of 1t and would have
swallowed It all If his captors had not
prevented him. Two bottles of liquid
found in the house were used for
"slummy ache" according to Sing.
