RE Won afraid of life?

~ NOu VI
"a That is, are you afraid OF
love, and marriage, and
motherhood? Or if not precisely
that, are you afraid of the re-
sponsibilities and the often tire
some duties that these other great
privileges are pretty sure to en-
tail?
Are you very proud Of your in
dependence and security and
thrift, and do you value that
weekly pay envelope of yours al
most more than anything else in
the world? And somewhere in
the back Of your mind, as black
and heavy as an iron ball and
chain, is there a dread of becom-
ing a captive of the kitchen and
the motive power for a baby car
rage, with no evenings out or
Sundays off, and no pay envelope
whatever?
1 wish that 1 might personally
persuade every girl who supports
herself and is justly proud of do
ing so, that there is larger way
of looking at life than the way to
which she may have accustomed
herself. l, wish could make her
see that the ability that brings a
market price is an asset that
counts in marriage, and not a mere
maidenly attribute that fades out
of sight with the slipping on Of
the wedding ring.
Work, by all means, if you can
and will, and somebody will employ
you. You will be a wiser and
more practical woman for the ex-
perience. But don't let this de-
fraud you Of your woman's herit-
age. If a man loves you and
you love him, don't let the thought
Of your present pay envelope or
that future dishpan prevent you
from marrying him. What would
become of the homes and the chill
dren of the future if the strong,
sensible, self-supporting girls
avoided marriage and it became
the refuge of the weak incapables?
Every girls problem needs a
special solution. Nobody could be
wise enough to give advice which
could apply to all cases. But
there are some general considera-
tions that all girls will do we'll to
remember when they find that
their lives have reached 4 turning
point, that there is a decision to
be made.
First, don't let any job come
to seem to you more important than
it really is. You may have a re-
markable talent for bookkeeping
as well as for order and system
and neatness generally. 1t is
quite likely that all YOUR superiors
in the office have assured you of
this and that you have come TO
feel pretty certain that the work of
the office couldn't get Oh without
you. This is q very pleasant feel
ing and there is something almost
Intoxicating about it, too. You
know yourself how it often leads

Beatrice Fairfax War Workers
Especially for Washington Women

But don't let any old-fashioned
counselor, even your fiancee him
self, persuade you that this is
necessarily true. A husbands
dignity isn't in the least impaired
if his wife chooses to contribute
the contents Of second pay en-
velope to the family purse.
If she has a talent for bookkeep-
ing and that dread Of the dishpan
l have referred to, why not con-
tinue with the bookkeeping, mar
ried or not? Her salary will make
it easily possible for her to pay
some one else to do the housework
that she is obliged to leave undone.
and the family sitting room at
night will be a far more cheerful
and interesting place than if she
had forced herself to do the work
that to her is merely hateful
drudgery. / know scores Of homes
where the husband and wife each
start out for their days work with
with positive gayety, like true
comrades, shoulder to shoulder,
and at night return with more to
tell each other than there is ever
time for. Does it work? Of course
it does. Not only with the wife,
but with the husband. In fact,
it is especially educative where
the husband is concerned. And
you may be sure that a wife who
preserves her independence is no
less likely to keep her husbands
love than the girl who is a little
too eager to make it plain to her
acquaintance that she is entirely
supported by a husband and is
proud of the idle hours that every
day affords her.
Somebody will say that a home
isn't a home without babies, and
that a mother is obliged to stay
there. That her children demand
her, if her husband doesn't. And
to a certain degree this is true. In
a home where a baby is expected,
or where there is a baby of nurs-
ing age, a mother must place her
mothers duty above everything
else in life. This doesn't mean
that she need be an utterly idle
parasite, merely that she must
place the baby's interest first. But
this is, after all, a brief period.
For to my mind it isn't always
necessary that a mother take all
the care of her baby after it is a
year old. But that is a question
that every mother must decide for
herself, and that l shall discuss at
length in another article.
Think your own life out for
yourself. Don't be inflenced too
much by any one persons ad-
vice. Remember that it's every
woman's right to be a wife and
mother, but that there's no reason
in the world why she can't be q
wage-eaTner also if she chooses to.
In fact, that is a case where she
can have her cake and eat it, too.
