College meet It's obligation to its stu
dents" Dr. Burton said "by increas-
ing the STAFF and by paying adequate
salaries. You know the usual idea of
what a college professors salary is.
That popular idea has too long been
founded on fact, but in Smith we are
trying to pay salaries that will at
tract tho men and women that we want
on the faculty. As to the proportion
Of men and women employed. the chief
consideration is fitness for the posi-
ton. There are some who seem to
think a woman's college is primarily
a place for women TO obtain positions,
but it.isn't It is place for educating
young women, and sex doesn't deter
mine the fitness of a person for this
task. ! have no patience with people
who say whenever We have a vacancy
that place must be filed by a woman.
As a matter Of fact. while there has
been an increase of per cent in the
proportion Of men employed during
my administration, the relative i'm
portance Of women on the faculty has
increased. The college now has
woman dean, position formerly held
by man. There are sixteen women
and three men in administrative posi-
lions, where there used 70 be six
women and two men, and there are as

there ever were. One significant rea-
SON. he added, emphatically, why We
have not more women on the staff is
that there are not more adequately
trained women. Just n present we
are looking for woman instructor in
sociology, a department in which men
happen TO predominant at Smith, but
after an exhaustive search, the indi-
cations are that We may be forced 70
take another man, because none Of the
women candidates have measured up

lieye that every woman should be

necessary. but I am not willing to say
that a wife and mother in a home does

cases she does. The average marriage
is a partnership, in which the wife
does her share in keeping up the home
and caring in it for the children. and
that the children belong equally 20
the man and woman, and are their

itself, and was fitted up with everything
the heart of a truly domestic woman
could wish. 1t was more than q mere
kitchen. 1t had an individuality all its
own, and was place where its mistress
could entertain her friends, try out all
the recipes she had been longing to all
these years and put up preserves. And
there was much more besides which
battles description.
This dream kitchen is a long, low
building. at least it is low as to its
walls. but high from the aspect Of its
quaint French roof. Old-fashioned
cedar shingles, painted white, cover the
walls. and shingles stained a soft moss
green the roof. while the easement
windows are filed with small diamond
panes which. with the steep pitch OF
the sioping roof. convey the impression
Of cathedral architecture in miniature.
