I would be pe cctly happy if it were not for the teachings of my mother that keep me mentally upset. My mother is an artist. and lives upon such a high spiritual plan-e that things that are not of an artistic type irritate and bore her. She is dreadfully disap- intcd and hurt because 1 chose to "Just get marrl " instead oi‘ follow- g some ambitious career, She has taught me that it is s crime to bring a child into the world to suffer, and begs me not to be responsible for another life. But I can- nm, See that it 15 wrong to want to be a mother when my aim is for the . . . children's welfare. My mother is lovely and I want to respect and obey her. but as a woman I desire to think the right thoughts and do the right deeds. Can you relieve me of any doubt on the subject? MARGARET. ANSWER-Your mother in entirel wro in her point of view and you are right. T e grea est on a In d ill. In.’ Woman's Re alm '1. Soc career that any woman can follow, the one in i_ _, which she can most fully express herself and in which her achievement can be of most value to the world, is that of wife and mother. It is the career for which Nature intended her, and it is the one in which she is most successful and reaps the greatest reward in happiness. Also, it is the career that calls for more in- telligence, more talent, more tact and diplomacy. more courage and grit, a higher morale than any other. For the wife and mother must be a. Pooh Bah who is master of all professions and arts and crafts. She must be Llawyer and a doctor, a preacher and a disciplinarian, a cook and a aclier, a. seamstress and a commissary general, and Heaven knows what else. in order to pull oi! an even average job of wife and mother.

"What! Did he?" Judith stared inoreduously, then burst out laugh- ing. "You marry Otis Frame? 0f course you refused?" _ “Naturally. But keep in mind that Otis would like to get control of Fleetwood, I'm sure that's why he proposed. And maybe he's egging Sidney on to marry you because he knows you own half the farm." "That's not sol" Judith blazed. "Sidney wouldn't be influenced b Otis-he hates him! I don't know why, but there's something between them. something Sidney won't talk about. Anyway, his wanting to marry me has nothing to do with Otis. He says he would have left home when he finished college if it hadn't been for me. l-le loves me, Anne-he loves me, I tell ycui" Her voice rose shrllly.
