The Mother and the Job
Modem Economic Conditions Have Brought Up the Vital Question
Of Whether Woman Must Choose Between Motherhood and Her job

Tn DISCUSSING the question of
whether boards of education in
several cities should dismiss wom-
en- teachers when they become moth
ers, it seems to me that the only real
point at issue is how motherhood af-
fccts the teachers efficiency.
If motherhood, as most of US lelieve,
broadens a woman's sympathy. teaches
her more patience and forbearance
with children. and gives her an insight
into nature that no young girl or old
maid can possibly have-if, in a word,
motherhood gives a woman the touch
Of nature it makes her kin to every
inarticulate, stumbling, cropping little
soul in her charge. then let the mother
teacher be reinstated in her old job.
But if the mother teachers thoughts
and interests are centered on her own
baby in her own home, so that she does
her work half-heartedly and perfume
torily, and if she rushes through her
tasks in the school room to get back
to her own cradle, then let her be
dismissed.
The whole question is a question of
efficiency that the school board should
be able to settle on that basis. 1t is a
case where the good of the greatest
number must be considered, and the
fate of the woman teacher should de-
pend on her record.
Salvation of Society.
The question that has been raised
in this controversy is a most interest
ing one, for it involves a big economic
problem that we have got to face in
the near future, and that is whether
children are to be a luxury confined
to the very rich or the desperately
poor. This would be a bad thing for
the world. for it is the children who
are reared in middle class homes that
are the salvation Of society.
Many thoughtful people who believe
that motherhood should disbar a wo-
man from teaching take the ground
that the best interests of the home and
the rights of the baby to be born are
best served thereby.
They say that when the time comes
that a baby is expected the husband
should be able to allow his wife to
leave her profession Of teaching and
t. Ike up the profession of motherhood
in its fullest finest and most COM
prehensiYe form. The man of the fam
lily should be able to support the home
in comfort and give the woman the
time and opportunity to devote her
whole undivided interest, attention and
care to her child.
Undoubtedly this is the ideal situa-
ton. The only difficulty is that it is
impossible to always achieve the IDEAL,
and to those who have the courage to
look life in the face as it is, instead
Of as it ought to be. it is perfectly
apparent that the time is fast going by,
il it has not already passed. when
many men will be able to provide in
such manner for their wives and chill
dren.
Already the marriage rate has been
cut down enormously because men

Many Must Continue to Work.
Hundreds of thousands of young
girls are fitting themselves, to fill good

which they can do this is by keeping
on with their jobs after they are mar
ried, and helping TO support as well as
create a family. To forbid this is to
doom them to celibacy or childlessness.
As for a woman continuing a work
after she is married, and after she has
children. doubtless that is also a prob
lem that viii solve itself when we
reach it. Possibly the advantages Of
mother doing everything with her own
hand for her own child Is as much of
a myth as the superiority of mothers

as good or wholesome as the bakers.
At any rate. most women have moth
ers or other female relatives who are
amply able to care for a child COM

trained nurses and kindergartens ana
creeches. Also the average profession
al woman would not be away from her
child more hours a day than the ordi-
nary mother is away from hers in
shopping and going to clubs and bridge
whist parties and matinees.
The added comfort in living and the
advantages that the wage-earning
mother could give her children must
likewise be taken into consideration.
Certainly of two evils it is better that
the mother should continue in her pro-
fession than that the children should
be sent into the factory.

Dear Miss Fairfax:


Dear Miss Fairfax;
am a woman "a and have been mar
ried for six years. L have a little
daughter five, who seems to be a source
of trouble between my husband and
myself He expects her to act like a
grown person and treats her in a gruff
ugly manner. She is very sensitive and
is heartbroken when he is home.
have been considering separation on
my little girls account, and again have
thought Of placing her in a school. but
I cannot bear the thought of her going
away.
A HeartbrOken Mother
Perhaps you neglect your duties of
wife for those of mother Your husband
may be quite uncOnsciOusly jealous of
the child who has come between you.
Don't place your child in school and
don't consider a separation. Fill the
child's mind full of pleasant pictures
of her father Surely if she shows him
some of the love she Iavishes on you he
will come to respond. Your task is to
bring your husband and baby together
His gruff, ugly manner may be merely
one of selS consciousness. once he
learns to understand his baby, to play
with her and to accept her little cares
ses he viii surely find great happiness
in his child.
