HIGHER EDUCATION LEADS GIRLS AWAY FROM THE HOME. Bul They Make Better Mothers Because of Their Intelligence When They Do Marry, and There Isn’t Any Dan= ger of the Race Dying Out. | BY ALICE ROHE. “Which would you rather have—a good job or an indifferent hus- band?" Prof. Henry 8. Pritchett, President of the Massachusetts School of Technology, who asked the question, aid #o !n a tone which was obviously impersonal. He was piainly bent upon gaining accurate information, but 1 Gide-stepped the opportunity of going down tn economic history as a “statistic.” | “It is your views on the subject that are desired for publication,” I) explained. President Pritchett, in an address before the Simmons College girls, had made the assertion that there ts an incresaing number of women who prefer & good job to an indifferent husband. He ts far from being a theorist. His statements are based upon actual statistics and facts. “There is the general supposition,” said Prof. Pritchett, “that college women do not marry; that higher education is ler ling them away from the home. This {s true, but !t also applies to women outside of colleges— women who have mastered an art or a profession, Marriage with them ts not a necessity from the point of support; they have their liberty end independence and self-eupport in thelr own bands, and they weigh well bie advantages they might gain by marrying.” “Do you thin ft 1s due to any «row. | De you not think thet Instead of the | Ine unwomanliness yn the part of these | independence of woman tn eeining her independent workers, any tendency ot|own living, decreaaing her value an a to be, as Bernard Shaw might say, &| mother, as so many claim, that ft In womanly woman?’ I asked. creases it?
