Amtlla Joneplilns Uurr. 0 THAT sovoral years of education for motherhood bo Included in tho regular curriculum ot tho public schools nnd that this course bo completed by training that shnll npproxlmato tho work of tho Kinder garten Training collogo Is the schomo advocated by Kato Douglas Wlggln, known In private- Hfo as .Mrs, aoorno C. Itlggs. Her Idea has beon spokon of as a "municipal school for brides to bo." "It may or may not bo muulolpnl," Bho explained. "My Idea is for n courso of training Hi which nil school girls Hlmll take part. Then wlion marrlago conies thoy will ud ready for it. "Tho school should teach tho girls to be capable useful, 'homo making mothers, not Just housekeepers and nurses, but mothers. That'll what wo need. "I bollovo heartily In teaching girls , to sow nnd cook, bako nnd sweep and licop house," Hho nald, "Hut I be lieve Ifi teaching them lots moro than that. 'Uy. that Isn't a scintilla of whnt I think our glrU ought to bs 'augltt before thoy marry. "I think they should bo taught not only to feed and clothes thqtr chll tlien, but to bring them up, not only to mnko a home comfortable, but to mako It happy, to make a sin ml for tho best thero Is In life. Ulrlsought to learn how to do thoso things, and it Is perfectly possible to (each them. "I think that girls Fhou'tl bo mi educated In tho public miIiooIh, I trust thnt thoy will lake hold of tlio humbler tasks ot llfo with a real ardor. "And first thoy must be taught to tak 'irld of I ho humbler tasks cap ably. "I wnnt girls taught to bring n 801180 of responsibility nnd a sense ot beauty Into wifehood and mother hood and tho training ot chlldron. This moans that they must bring knowledge. It menus that they must have received practical train ing. It moans thnt they must have had oxporlenco with children. And it moifhs thnt thoy must huvo been tnught to roallzo tho finer phnsos of homo making." Mrs. Itlggs hns been thinking of this mattor far years; has been ob serving tho trend of life nhnut hor; has looked into homes, looked Into public PchoolK, looked into kinder pnrlens nud tenohors' col logon, look ed Into day nursocles. Sho U arm ed for the (lUcueslon, not only to "book up" hor theories with facta nnd figures, but to state 'clearly wnnt kind of a school is needed nnd what it shall tncu. "I have often sa'd and emphati cally bellevo that the final mouths in a xoung woman's education should bo spent In n kindergarten tralnliiK college or some equivalent for such an Institution. "As matters are now arranged the responsibilities which she will prob nbly naaiuiie are never so much na uiontioned In v the aohool curriculum. ' Girls J1nlh their education unfit ted for ( motherhood. "Poaloflty might say, in oxnmlu lng the courses of study in our schools today, that this gejierotlan. must haw been training oellbntes." The ordinary public school educa tion falls In fitting girls for moth crliood, Mrs, Itlggs deolnros, and the "higher" education falls evou mora lamentably. That 00. per cent of tho girls that lonvo qollogo outor un prepared upon mnrrlcigo Is raasoji .enough, sho contends, for the imme diate ostnbllshiuout of a motherhood training school. "I suppoio that the average col logo girl, with her splendid Intellec tual training, is fitted to be the intel lectual mother of the strong sous." pho niusad, "but when sho marrlos she Mill have juat ordinary little ha hlus to train, aid, toaoh nnd to dis cipline. Sho leaves collage unprepar ed for the duties that await her." 0 On f'hjn-' iov evening, December 21, one of the pritt weddings over hold qn the Slush' v wa at the home nt Mr. nnd Mrs. John Beck of Point Tvi-ruco whou Mr. Dorrls Ileolt w.i.s united in marrlago to Miss Vio let Jilt Mii'oa Sehlltwstrom of North Hond.
