An Authority on Problems Of Love
and Marriage

what, that sweet young girl?
Oh. what pity"
This comment was made by a
certain woman in the nineties
when she heard that a young
friend was preparing to 20 to
college, then to earn her own
living.
1t was a dreadful fate for any
girl of the mauve decade to be
highly educated and the girl who
worked was. indeed, an object
of pity.
Teaching is the only genteel
work for women" announced one
poor but proud mother Of that
era. my daughter will teach"
The daughter in question loathed
the idea of teaching, so at the
first opportunity she got away
from it in the only genteel way
open to girls-by marrying. She
married a man she did not love,
but merely tolerated. because sine
hated teaching.
= That girl of the niueties is now
in her fifties. Life has been one
long boredom to her. How she
must envy the girl of today who
chooses work she loves, loves her
work and marries only when she
falls in love with a man VINO is
congenial and worth while.
Nearly all girls go into bust.
ness today, not only because they
need the money, but because they
like doing the work they choose
for themselves. Thousands of girls
are in business this September
who were in school last year at
this time. Eight and a half mil
lion American women Ego out to
work each day.
Business will go to the dogs IL
women are allowed to work side
by side with men," prophesied the
wiseacres of the eighties and early
nineties. Moreover, women will
be utterly spoiled for marriage
and hOme-making.'
Now. it is true that when num-
