THE WOMEN WHO
CANNOT MARRY
By Ellen Adair
After the War

Death go hand in hand while Eternity
broods over them both"
The women Of England are passing
through great transition period. The
old order Of things 10 being swept away
and a now one ls taking It's place. The
society girls In particular are not pre-
pared for II. For they have been brought
up to think that marriage is their ult-
mate goal-the solution Of LIES riddle
for women.
And now they must face the fact that
half their generation OF male sex is
swept away.
Not being we'll versed in statistics.
declares Lady Troubrldge, II cannot say
what the preponderance OF women over
men will be, but whatever II may be, 1t
Will do away with the certainty Of mar
riage for any girl
"Polygamy Is unthlnkable in England.
and from financial standpoint II ls i'm I
possible. for a man will have as much
as he can do to support one wife, lot |
alone morer'
The thing which the women Of England |
must now do Is cultivate the talents they
possess and seek their happiness in work
and somo chosen vocation. There is no
dearth OF occupations to choose from, and
that girls can do some of the WORK hithcr-
to performed by men has been clearly
and most efficiently demonstrated.
Every girl in Britain must face the
problem and apply herself to II seriously
There must be no more wasted hours In
the life OF the girl Of the leisure classes.
She must realize that existence has now
taken on a different and deeper meaning
and that life is real and sometimes des-
earnest.
The woman who is self-supportng is,
after all, in no wise to be pitied. And
he grave social problem which will arise
lfter the war will be met by the women
" England with an undaunted spirit.
