ELISABETH SEARS Replies to College Professor's EN— q Study Homemaking Methods Instead of Business, With Counter Question Which She Readers. By Fay Stevenson. (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Co. O business women make good wives? Now, “Gentle Reader,”’ ple: e don't faint, for this old question has a new turn to it, a brand new one, and is followed up by: “You venture they do, and why should business women need to be trained’ to be good wives and mothers any more than business men should This ‘follow up” question was asked by Mrs. Eiisabeth Sears, President of the New York 4 league of Busl- ness and Profes- sional Women anc editor of In- dependent Woman. Fair play is what we want when peo- ask this question,” declared Mrs. Bears at her office, No. 276 Fiftth venue, “and that is why I sprang that question when a college pro- Fessor with mid-Victorian ideas down fm Florida stated that women should forsake their careers and return to the explained how she {was down in Florida visiting this co- @d college the other day and very much amused to hear one of the pro- fessors state that it was more im- portant to train young women to be- come good wives and mothers than to be good business women. When It came Mrs. Sears's time to speak she agreed with this professor that young omen should be trained to become ood wives and mothers, but startled the triumphant professor and moved her audience to cheers when she turned to him and said: “And what method do you us to train your young men to be- come good husbands and fathers?” Back in her office again Mrs. Sears still smiles about that mid-Victorian professor and the way he took her “fair play’ question. “He was simply stumped,” Jaughed, “and I believe he saw that it is not quite fair to place all the re- Bponsibility of the family and the home on the shoulders of the modern young woman. There must be a good Rusband and father for every good wife and mother if we are to have success in the family of the future. Wherefore, why not train both Johnny and Jenny to cook and keep house and be thoroughly domestic?" “Don’t you think the average man fmakes pretty good coffee and knows how to cook bacon and eggs better than most women?" I asked Mrs. rs, “Those boys who go to camp nd some of the chaps who have been frained by old-fashioned mothers are hatural born cooks, and while IT am t in favor of husbands doing the jousework, there is no reason in the ‘world why a man couldn't hustle along the dinner when his wife ts detained for business reasons.”” “That is exactly what I mean," em- phatically declared Mrs, Sears. “My Young son beats me all to pieces on aking coffee and turning out a few Brecial dishes. I believe the average man likes to cook and he ought to be peru to this sort of thing so he can \e she Ip out on a pinch or when the maid out and wifey has a headache. “Now, coming back to the business oman and wifehood,"’ continued Mrs. Bears, ‘let me say as President of this league and editor of The Inde- indent Woman, I have met a number married business women and they Make the finest type of wife in the orld, The business woman runs her home on 2 business basis instead of ihn emotional basis. She learns that takes more than intuition and nother-love to keep things going.”’ “That business basis versus the notional basis is probably the very son so many men admire the up- o-date young woman," I interjected. "Have you noticed that the widower 4 divorced man usually marries his brivate secretary or some woman with fhom he kas had business relations? reonally I do not part this down to ere sex attraction or feminine charm the man's admiration for this oman’s business ability and power @ understand him,’ agree with you," said Mrs s, ‘I have seen a number of es just like the ones you described. th widowers and divorced men im- diately turn about and marry this business and professional type of an, the very woman with whom hey. have talked business day after y. And I have come to the con- plusion that they admire these women their business ability and keenness mind quite as much as for the lossiness of thelr hair or the turn of heir ankles. “The emotional woman's day is evel For years women ran the home on love, tears and sweet feminine intuition, To-day mod- ern homes are run on budgets and a business basi: The busi- mess woman is at the helm. Mat- ae in the be made to take a course in being good husbands and fathers world and every woman appreci- ates this, but a busin career before and even after marriage is the best training in the world for her. “To ilustrate that the business woman is still as feminine and wom- anly as her sister who simply trains for matrimony and knows nothing but how to make a cherry pie and dec- orate and furnish a home in softening shades,'’ pointed out Mrs. Sears, ‘f know & number of business women who have no husbands but go in for a home, anyway, Have you ever noticed that the moment a business woman gets $1,000 or so ahead she immediately invests in a suburban home or furnishes an apartment for herself? Sometimes she clubs in with another girl and they keep house to- gether, but you may just depend upon it that a business woman wants 4 home—she wants it the same way a business man does—beeause home spells comfort and ease, and if she can’t find the right husband she'll go ahead and get her own home."' “Home, Jar is the happiest phrase the business woman knows. She may not have a chauffeur to whisper this to, but she can say it to herself and smile while she swings on a subway strap on her way uptown or hustling over in the Jersey tubes It's all the same.

It looks like they're taking this dump for a picnic ground, The boss gets an eyeful too and comes to me sore. “* ‘Chase ‘em,’ he says. Not me!’ I says. “Then I will,’ he says, but he hates to. He hangs around a while and finally gets up his nerve and goes to their table, “Don't you want to eat some of our food?* he asks, “‘No thank you!’ comes from the old lady. ‘We got enough,’ “The boss hesitates. That old lady is so sweet and the little girl so pretty he can't get his nerve up to give ‘em the gate. However, he takes another brace and is about to speak when something he ain't lookin’ for takes place. “The old lady fishes a coupla pieces of ple out of her bag and the little girl offers one to the boss. “What happened?” “Why, the boss comes back to where I'm at with his face buried in a piece of mince pie such as his teeth ain't bit into for fifteen years. And that ain’t all—he sends ‘em some ice cream, and when they leave he kisses the little girl and begs ‘em to come back.” “Who Is the boss?” “Terry O'Brien,” replied Lucile, “and he's the toughest rough-and- tumble mug in this part of town.

So when he stepped into Sol’s Smoke Shop, Mul- ler, the grocer, took him aside. Mr. Jarr sighed nervously, believing that the grocer was going to ask for some- thing on account; the case, “My, you are looking bad,"’ said the grocer, “you should be eating plenty of food to build up your system."’ “Sure,” said Sol, the Smoke Shop ™man, overhearing this last remark, “you got to build up a cistern if you are going to live in the country, so you can get plenty water, “ET am talking health said Muller, ‘If he’s going to move to the country, I didn't know about it."
