The College as an Antidote lor Divorce
By DOROTHY UlX
Th 'women's collcga are calling' nttan-.
Hon to tb fact that the higher education
t glrln appears to be a specific far 3o
aaentia mUerj". The records of Vassar
college show that not a single graduate
f that Institution has ever figured In the
41vorc courts, while the other women's
colleges make almost as food a show
ing, the number of divorces among their
dumnae being almost negligible.
Thin should eottle the ancient fiillacy
that to give a girl a good education un
fitted her to be a wife, for tlicae statistics
certainly indicate that If the college girl
does not marry as frequently as her sis
ters, she stays married more often.-
Many explanations may be offered for
this phenomena. The most obvious, of
course, la that the trained reasoning
power of the college woman Is better
tted to solve the domestic problem than
e undisciplined mind of tlio poorlv
educated tveman, 'and that therefore she

can more successfully guard against the
conditions arising that lead to divorce.
In reality making a home l a learned
profession. No woman can bring to tills
great task too broad" and profound a
knowledge, because It Includes every other
art and science on earth. Bhe will need
all that she knows of chemistry In cook
ing, all that he can acquire of higher
mathematics In trying to check the multi
plication of butcher and grocery bills,
all that she knows of languages to make
Beraell Intelligible to the Hildas and
paaa through her kitchen. She will need
Ul of her knowledge of hygiene and germ
theories In sterilising her baby's bottles;
ha will need all of her law to settle the
disputes between her children;, she will
need all of her philosophy to keep a
erene countenance on these days whon
the maid" leaves with the clothes In the
Waahtub and tha stove won't bake and
the grocer doesn't show up and unex
pected company con-fs to dinner; and h-
A alRkF.:?t"TECN W7t'Ll A
will need ail of her self-cornrvl that a
thousand colleges could Uach l.er to hold
tier peaoe In thoe situations when a .a
gle word will precipitate a faral'.y rov.-.
It is not only conceivable, but inevita
ble, that a woman who has btjn taught
to think and reason will be ti.. rat n
f her soul under cndltrr.s that wuuld
end another woman Into' hy. te les. Also
college life gives girls the education or
association with other people, which Is
just s valuable as anything to be
med from books. It teaches woman
be comradely a virtue which women
eldoiu posses.
Another reason why the col'ee aoman
la lees apt to make, the sort of marriage
that ends In dlvorcn II. a i hrr stay-at-home

much )ler
In life. The college woman
practically never marries under twenty
five, and by that time her charactor Is
formed, her taste settled, and she knows
what she wants and requires In a hus
band. A girl of sixteen or twenty will marry
a man because he dmicp.H the two-step
well; because he has a black mustache,
cr looks like a clothing advertisement
picture. Then whon she comes to her
self, when she Is woman grown, she
finds that she lias mrde a colossal mis
take, that there Is not one thought or
Ideal or aaplratlon In common befween
them. Inevitably they quarrel, luevltat
ably the bonds between them come to be
the fetters of prisoners. And only tOi
often the. disillusioned, heart-hungry
woman meets up with a man that Is her
real mate, and then thlre is divorce and
affinity scandal '
The late marriage has so much better
chance of being a success than the
carly marriage that it would be worth
while sending girls to college just to
put them In a place where they would
be safeguarded until they reached the
age of discretion. If the college gave
them nothing else save protection.
Also the ' college girl, being oldai
and wiser when she marries than the
ordinary girl, goes about making a
happy home, mora definitely. If she
gets nothing else from the history she
has . studied she has acquired a few
pointers on the vagaries of men, and
so she does not trust to luok, but to
skill, In looking after her own hus
band and keeping him fascinated.
Not all of the credit for making the
college wedding a grand sweet ' song
belongs to the woman. A lot of It
goes - to the husband of the col
lege, girl. Undoubtedly she gets a very
superior brand, for It takes one of
the finest to qualify for the Job.
The ordinary, average man would no
more think of proposing to a college g'rl
than he would put ha head In a lion's

mcuth. His vanity wouldn't suffer him
to. Nothing cn earth could liidu' him
to marry a womau who knew aa much as
he did. or peri.Kfu niMic, and who would
be able to slse him up for what ha was.
He would know that lis coulUn t swell
around her, and puff out his chist. and
preltnd to be. i3!r Oracle. Us couldn't
patiotilio her, and pooh puoh f.er opin
ions. He Wuuld have to listen to them
w.th leapi'.t. and treat hr aa uu equal.
Therefore he marries little Fluffy Huf
fies, who tits at his lot bcfvrw they ar
martled, and hurls fltttiry at him with
a shoel and tells him how givut and
wle, and big and eiiong he Is, and
after they are married quarels with him
until she packs her trunk foi Reno.

THE ONWARD MARCH
Each New Invention Makes New Industries for Labor and
Creates New Occupations and New Interests
for Humanity.
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.
Copyright. 1011, American-Journal-Examiner.
The 'Age of Motored Things.
The v underfill age of the world I sing
The age of battery, ooll and spring,
Of steam, and storage, and motored
thing.
Though faith may slumber and art seem
dead,
And all that la spoken has once been said.
And all that Is written were beet un
' read.
Though hearts are Iron and thoughts are
steel,
And all that has value la mercantile.
Vet marvellous truth shall the age re
veal. Aye, greater the marvels this age shall
find
Than all the centuries left behind.
When fattlt was a bigot and art was
, bljnd.
When the sentimentalists talk of the
vulgarity of this mechanical age and be
moan the Increase of machine work, they
do not realise that they are bemoaning
the eventual volution of man to some
thing greater and .
more godlike than
his present slate.
When the work
Ingrnan sets his
face against the In
troduction of a
labor-saving ma
chine . he does not
knuw it, but bs I
setting his face
against the better
ment of the Uvea
of his children or
his grandchildren.
When the stage
coach, with Its
regular mails, was
flrt Introduced In
to the country the
men who had carried the malls on horse
back across country, declared the stage
a monster, which took tread from poor
men's mouths. After 'the railroad came,
the stage coach devotee made tho same
protest; and the steamship was
anathematised by the sailboat, and the
trolley by the railroad; gas was con
sidered the destruction of th lamp In
ductry, and"oleclric light was an Inven
tion of the lev to the gas company.
Yet each ncy Invention made new in.
dustrles for Ub.ir and created new occu
pations and now Interests for humanity.
The sewing machine brought contei na
tion to the seamstress aVid tailors, and
the mower was rrgarded as an enemy of
the poor man, who had. supported him
self by wellding the scythe at haying and
harvesting seasons.
Vet what on of us today would like
to see this country di putident upon a
mounted man rld.ng serosa fields with
the mull bag, or upon the fish-oil lamp
for light, or the sailboat and stage coach
for transportation, or the scythe for gar
nering the harvest, r upon the needle
for all work In fashionable tiarmenls?
Every machine means emancipation fur
the mind of mqn.
I have not been stirred by anything In
the world of art more powerfully than I
was stirred by the first sight of the
vaclum sweper. What freodom for
women lies In that Invention once It be
comes universal, a It will!
Woman Is slow to avail herself of the
benefits of man' Inventive genius. She
la lntittiod to drag along In the old
grooves, saying the old fashioned methods
are good enough for her; but she Is In
the path of progress, and la too sensible
to be ground under Its wheels. The dav
will come when all sweeping, wavhlng.
Ironing, dlsh-cleanetng and other menla
labor will be accomplished by the mere
direction of a machine, and the beautiful
hours of beautiful days will not be spent
In back-breaking and mtnd-monopoltslug
rounds of ever-recurring labor.
If any man ever went to the aims
house because of the advent of machinery
It was owing to his own lack of fore
sight and perseverance.
Temporarily, Indeed, the Individual may
suffer from loss of accustomed occupa
tion; but If he keeps his mind alert and
his eye open and bis heart courageous
he will find new paths leading from the
new inveiit:ons which offer ten-fold the
opportunit y for succeas offured by the
old.
The ru'.lroud Will serve as an example.
Wl.ere a score of men In a locality were
driven out of business by the abandon
ment of the stage coach hundreds of men
found occupation as conductor, engineers,
porters. Inakenieu und switchmen, nol
to mention the more profitable poslUunii
aa yrtfl 'J Js v.si. ..
Or, sorry the search of the world for
ods, l
Through faith that slaughter and art
that lauds, I
While reason sits off It throne and nods.
Dut out of the leisure that msn will
know,
When the cruel things of the sad earth go,
A Faith that la Knowledge shall rise and
grow.
In the throb and whir of each new
machine
Thinner I growing the veil between
The visible earth and the world' uneeen.
The True rtellglon shall leisure bring;
And Art shall awaken and Love shall
ing;
Oh, hoi for th age of th motored
thing..
From th building and marketing', of
sewng machine and mowers and reapers
more families have derived support than
were driven from business by tbelr In
troduction. The world will' not, 'cannot,' must not,
stand still because a few alow and satis
fled people have fallen Into a groove and
are daxed at the thought of essaying any
other method of life.
Progres Is Ilk a mighty engine, and
those who are standing In 1U way must
be struck down..
fiafety can only be found by getting
out of th way.
The man Who attempted to start a large
enterprise la th manufacture of sperm
oil , lamp after the arrival of gas a a
mean of Illumination need not blame the
gas company for his failure.
It wa due to his own lack of per
ception. Tho manufacture of ga fixtures would
have brought him a fortune.
Atway look for the opportunity lying In
the woke of progress; do not undertake
anything which means defiance to new
Invention.
lo not Imaglno you can persuade tho
masses to stay behind with old fashions
and old methods.
However you may approve them, how
ever they may excel the new Ideas In
many respects, you wilt be wlaa to sav
your breath, vitality and time for mor
profitable undertakings,
Man Is rapidly paving tho way for a
wonderful era of mental and spiritual
development.
Th work of tho world 1 becoming y.
tematlxed and machinery Is relieving over. ,
