whether she win take up teaching
or nursing. am too discreet q
man to undertake comparison Of
these two great professions
have heard Il said that compare
sons are odfOus. feel. however,
that q few unusual thoughts
prompted by the brilliant Geraldine
Coster may be helpful Ia reaching
b decision by those who are about
to try out the great problem 81
lie In one or other of the two
fields have mentioned.
At the very outset the candidate
for career Is confronted BY the
fact that the teacher has much
less chance than the nurse of
satisfying her individual ideal.
Theoretically there ID no more
lofty or romantic work III life than
that Of helping to train the next
generation, but the fact remains
that the teaching profession atill
suffers considerably from the
stigma OF its past i1efficiency.
There is romance in Florence
Nightingale with her lamp, but
there Is none Ia the dessicated
scholar with his birch. The tradi-
ton that teacher Is one whose
business II is to make children
miserable dies very slowly, and q
woman in this position is worse Off
even than q man.
Nevertheless, teaching can well
be a satisfying outlet Tor q wonn-
ans energies, since at its best it
makes a strong appeal to the ma
ternal instinct and also gives
plenty of scope for original mental
work. However, the opportunities
which 1t affords for a misuse Of
power are much greater than those
of nursing. Whereas only the
heads OF the nursing profession
can do much harm, every teacher
has the opportunity to misdirect
his or her unconscious love OF
domination. Tyranny and petty
cruelty to subordinates is the
worst feature of the teaching pro-
fession.
The reason is probably that It
is much easier to express an
instinct freely and directly than
to sublimate its expression. The
woman teacher, who, as rule,
sees little of the opposite sex,
nearly always suffers from, con-
siderable repression, and the
power, finding one channel oo-
structed, rushes with undue force
to the other This makes
sublimation exceedingly difficult,
hence a strong temptation to ex-
press the desire for power by
cruelty. Moreover, cruelty at
the top of any profession win re-
proportionately all down the scale.

4 4 s s. - W.
Be that as 1t may, the average
man DOES go through life with q
guilty feeling toward the woman
who loves him. That Is what
causes that slumbering look OF
apology or resentment you see in
a married mans eyes.
A woman can make man feel
guilty just by a casual glance at
his cravat, or by picking fleck
off his coat lapel. He never knows
WHAT she has discovered-but he
knows there's enough!
Five minutes after she has de-
cided to marry him woman elects
herself mans guide, monitor, con-
science and censor; and rom that
moment he goes through life like
prisoner at the bar, constantly
explaining himself and forever on
the defensive.
It is ''that guilty feeling" that
prompts guilty man to bring
home roses in order to lull his
wife's suspicions-and makes an
innocent man AFRAID To bring
home roses, for fear of arousing
his wife's suspicion.
It is that guilty feeling which
fills one man with an inferiority
complex and makes him afraid to
drive his own car tie his own
evening tie or express his own
opinions, for fear he will be
promptly criticised. And it is the
same feeling which makes another
man tramp and shout around the
house, and bully the servants just
to show a woman that he ISN'T
afraid of her.
