Dear Louisa:-
1 am a mother and have two
daughters who have just finished
school. One is planning to be
come a teacher and the other
, vislies to go in training as a nurse.
We had hoped that they would
both become teachers and toward
that end we have saved enough
money to pay for their college
education. We think that the
hospital training will tie too hard
for our youijer daughter but noth
ing we can say has any effect on
her.
Do you think we should just tell
her that she cannot go in train
ing or v, hat do ou advise'.'
Mother Md.
Answer:
I think you would he very un
wise to tell your (laughter that
-lie cannot go in training. If that
is what she lias always wanted to
do that is possibly where she will
he happiest and make I lie biggest
success.
, However, it docs seem a shame
'lor her to gie up the chance of
a coljege education when so many
girls are lunging for the oppor
tunity to go to school. College will
I mean a great deal to her, no mat
i (or what kind of a trade or pro
, Cession she chooses to follow and
a girl who goes in training, hav
ing such an educational back
ground, will be able to go further
in her profession than one who
lacks it.
i Perhaps you and your daughter
, will he happier if she will agree
to linish college before she goes
I in training. There are many
j studies she can elect w hile there
i which will make her training
; period much easier later on.
But when she does complete her
college work, you must be perfect
ly willing for her to go on with
the career she desires.
LOUISA.
Dear Louisa:-
Don't you think that, women are
awful gossips and catty about each
other? I am a woman but some
times I am ashamed of it.
G. G. C Ark.
Answer:
The woman who is always ac.
eusing other women of being
catty is usually a little cat her
self. But she is a sly little cat
and how she does like the admir
ation of the other sex when she
sounds off about the shortcomings
of her own sex!
I don't think that gossiping is
confined to either sex. I think it
is strictly a trait of the individual.
In fact, while - women may be
more given to trivial gossip, it is
my opinion that men are much
quicker to suspect innocent wom
en of bad behavior than other wo
men are.
But it really makes me sick to
see the way some of the fair sex
smirk around with the air of "see
how different I am from all other
women."
Ami then they can probably tell
you the low-down on everyone in
town, but of course, they will just
he telling you and no one else so
it's not really gossip. How did they
hear it .' They must be psychic.
LOUISA.
