Dorothy Dix Says: Teach Every
Uirl in the World to Be Selt-
Supporting.
By DOKOTHV Dl.V.
A man who hIkiis himself, "A FUther,-'
askes this (iicstlon:
"Uo you not think that before a girl
upends niueh tlmo In thinking of love or
mHirlago !ho should equip lieroelt In
konic useful nio-
cialty say ilotneHtlc
science, for lu
titHiico, so as to tn
Hiire her having
home occupation by
which Mho could
Hilppoit herself if
Mho should ever be
obliged to? Don't
you think Hhn
Hhmild do this le
gardless of the fi
nancial condition
of her parents?"
I hail It as a
glad day when
oven one father
has begun to think
scrlouBly and Intel
ligently of' his
daughter's future. Instead bt.;A Ing -It-to
qhance, ap.Is yio happy-go-lucky cus
tom lu dealing with girls
I have written n thousand times thai
I think it f simply criminal for parents
to iei)d their daughters out Into the world
as helpless to deal with the conditions
that they are bound to face, as a Iamb
would be to fight a horde of wolves.
And this state of affairs prevails
throughout every rank of 'society. The
rich man, who has a fortune to leave
lili daughter, does not teach her one
thing alcut business, so that when he
dies ami she- comes Into her Inheritance
.she has no ability to handle It, and be
comes the victim of. any man unscru
I'Ulous enough to rob her.
Hvcry one of us can cite dozens of
cases of women who were left fortunes
by their fathers, but who ure paupers to
day through having been swindled out
of the money they wera not competent
to manage.
if a girl belongs to the well-to-do class
her " parents think they've done their
full duty by her If they have given her
tlio smattering of an education, and put
all the balance of the money they could
spare on her back. They base all their
hopes for her future welfare on the
chance of hnr marrying. They practi
cally force her into marriage for a live
lihood bccafise she hasn't been taught
any honest way of supporting herself.
Kvcn when a girl Is poor and must
work, her parents do not take the trouble
to think out for her. as they would for a
boy, the occupation for which she dis
plays a natural aptitude, nor do they
lake the trouble to have her thoroughly
taught some trade or profession so thnt
she may get a good salary Instead of a
small wage.
Of course, parents Justify themselves
in till way of treating their daughters
by saying that the girl will soon marry,
and that there's no use In spending a lot
of money iwid time preparing her for
soiiio skilled occupation which she will
not follow, but for a short time. This
apology for a neglected duty was al
ways a poor one, but It grows of less and
loss worth every year as girl's chances
if marrying decline.
It Is not at all certain In these days
that ft gtrl will marry, and If she does
marry that doesn't alter the necessity of
having an anchor thrown out to the
windward In the shape of, a knowledge
of how to make a living for herself.
Husbands die. Husbands become Invalids
and muHt be supported instead of sup
porting their wives. Husbands are some
times good, worth, lovable men. who

do the best they can, but who Just have
the faculty for getting along In tha
world left out of their composition, and
they drng their families down to penury,
unless the wife knows how to put her
shoulder to the wheel.
Kvery girl In the world should be pre
pared for some such contingency as this.
8he should be taught some occupation
by which she can support herself If she
needs to, and sh will make a better wife
if she has practiced It for a year or two
before she .marries.
There would be no need to cry out
agalnft the extravagance of women If
every woman knew by experience what
toil and weariness go Into the making
of every dollar. There would be no more
slipshod, Ill-managed homes If every girl
had had system and order nnd prompt
ness drilled Into her In a business office.
So, even If you think your daughter Is
going to marry, you can do nothing more
! efficacious toward helping her make her
' marriage a succees than to make her a
thorough-going business woman.
We don't like to face facts about our
girls, but It's nothing more than the
"truth that' the woman who marries for
anything but love the woman who mar
ries for a home, and clothes, and a sup
porthas no rlsht to draw her skirts
away from the woman of the street.
Morally, they are in tb.e same class; and
you can protect your daughter from this
crudest of all fates a marriage of neces
sityby having her taught some way to
support herself. The Independent work
ing girl and the ' heiress are the only
women who are free to follow their own
hearts.
Glvo a woman a good trade and you
put in her hands the wipon that Is
going to reform matrimony. There are
tens of thousands of wives who put up
with every sort of Insult and mistreat
ment from their hsubands. because they
i.re dependent on them. These women
are treated with Inconceivable cruelty,
but they have to . t the bread of de
pendence or starve, because they have
no way uf supporting themselves.
The woman who has a good profession
or trade will not submit to this humilia
tion. She will simply get up and leave
and go back to her old Job. The woman
uhu -i n earn a fine salary will not
stand lor having pennies doled out to her
as If she was a beggar. She will turn
htr back on the cook stove' und repair
to hc.r typewriter or counter, and for
this reason there will bo a leformatlon
among husbands. Tho r .n who Is mar
ilcd to an Independent .oirmi will re
spect her Independence.
Above all the woman who has had ;it
her fingers' ends some trade whereby
ilie cun make a living will be saved
from that most piteous lot on earth that
of the middle-aged woman who Is sud
denly thrown out helpless iir.d penniless
on the world, Incompetent, unskilled, as
Ignorant as a baby of any gainful occu
pation, and too old to learn one.
Kvery girl In the world should be taught
mme way of supporting herseir and every
father should see to It that his 'iighter
Is that far protected against the mis
fortunes of life. For none of us can tell
what the turn of the wheel Is going to
bring uf. 1

Bishop Ulckey's in ralgnincnt of mod
eru women whom hi' rulls "tinseled
with farhlou. slaves to custom nnd wli
do not blush when modesty Is outrnwd
In print, In song nnd on the street." has
raised a storm of criticism from defend
ers of tho sex who see thu othur Mile
of the picture.
"Women of this kind are greatly In tii
minority. They are In evidence because
they have nothing to do, but parml :
around and advertise their lack of braina

Miss Iord. who Is a Wellesley graduate,
and well known as u writer, especially uf
children's plays, Is responsible for many
of the most beautiful children's pageunts
New York has ever seen.
"When you realize how luudL-quulch
young people are provided with n nut'.u.tl
outlet foi their exuberant animal splntj,
especially amon& tho cvcr-firow'lng class
of girls who work for their living. :t is
remarkable how' high the standard of
morals Is. and how strict their tense i f
propriety, " she said.
"Of courae, I admit I am a confirniHl
opmlst. hut I believe that I have aume
right to my opinions, because I have peo i
all kinds of people, both rich and uuo.-,
and the standards set by the women ol
both kinds was extremely high.
"While I was In settlement work. I
supplied the 'frivolous' clement because
I saw the need of the young girls mil
boys as well as of tho children for f' n
and amusement.
"Young people have got to have It.
and I have always noted how good nnd
sweet the girls remain even when they
are denied all the neutral pleasures of
youth.
"The parents of one very pietty girl.
Insisted on her werklng In a factory be
cause they could be sum where she was
all day. At night she was expected to
come right home (no loitering), eat her
supper, read for a little whll and go to
bed. That was her daily life The
parents allowed ho amusement of any
kind, excepting church and a walk on
Sunday. She had no friends, and none
were encouraged.
"I am sure that many parents, for
fear of their daughters going wrong, aro
treating them In the same way, forget
ting that they were young themselves
and craved innocent pleasure as all
young things do. Fortunately, this girl
got Interested In the settlement nnd, atter
much persuasion, she was allowed to take
up more congenial work and .make a few
friends among her own sex.
"Thousands of young people havu no
places to go, n place where they can be
with other young people, except the dance
halls. The girl's have no place to receive
callers, and parents do not encourage
the visits of daughters' beaux.
"I remember watching a very beauti
ful girl who always received her callers
in the doorway of her home. They would
stand there for hours, and vary tho mo
notony with a walk around the, block.
I got to know her, and she was one of
the sweetest and finest characters.
"Once she told me that she had been
to a dance with a young man. nnd, at
It was 'Just after the opening of the
Hudson tunnel, the couple had spent
several hours after the ball going back

can say that Broadway Is New York.
