Dear Miss Grey: Il is not I'M
common TO pick up the paper now
adays and regularly find a TRADE
against the girl Of today. That is
all right. We can take IL, but /
wish our critics would look into
the matter of Miss America and
her problems before they start
hurting charges.
A group of " girls who cannot
afford to 60 to e3llege were talk
ing about our future the other day
We agreed that not one of us is
prepared for marriage as we should
be and we also agreed that high
school training was to blame for
this.
Now there Is lot of talk about
college marriage courses. but
when you consider that less than
twenty per cent of the high school
graduates go to college, IT stands
to reason that step in the right
direction would be high school
course in marriage. Let me hasten
to say that / am not referring TO
any emphasis on the husband-wife
relationship. ! am talking about
classes in which the girls learn to
sew lwell enough TO make cur
tains. youngsters clothes, etc.)
