It ii Better for a Great Many
Girls Than a College Course
"A home training is a thing
not to be desprsed," writes ICdj
ward Hok in an article, "Shall
Our Girls go to College? "in
the August Ladies' Home jour
nal. "If that training is of the
best it is an exceedingly fine
question to decide whether it is
not as good in its highest and
truest results as a colleg course.
That i home tiaiuinir is inftn
itely better for a great many or
our girls than the best training
possible at a college admits, I
think, of very little, if any dis
pute. I say this, and emphasize
the point because some of our
3irls are prone to feel that they
are in a measure, abused and
handicapped if they are not per'
mitted by their parents to go to
college. I question very much
from our present conditions ot
society whetner the time nasi
yet been reached in American
life when one can truthfully say
that the majority of our girls
can be sent away from the home
auchoraje at a time in their
lves wnen tney are most ims
pressinable, and when the in
fluence of a careful mother.s
training means every thine
hem."
