Now, in time of war, tho future seems to depend on what the women do today. There are still women, even In this age of women's progress, who believe their effort is over when they have acquired a husband, But a woman must keep up or lose out. The woman who sinks into mental apathy, who looks at the world about her without curi osity or interest, has created a kind of vacuum of dullness and boredom about her. There was a young man from a plain background who forged his way up to an important posi tion and married a charming so ciety girl. She was pretty and attractive and ho believed she had all the qualities he desired in a women, But he was an energetic and ambitious chap, very hard working, and his mind was filled with theories and ideas that he wanted to discuss and test in the crucible of talk. For a few years, he and his wife were, to all out ward appearances, happily mar ried, but the girl made no at tempt to learn anything about her husbnnefs ideas and she failed to conceal her boredom when ho thrashed them out. "If he wants to talk business," she said impatiently, "let him do it with someono else." If he was in love with hor, she contended, that ought to be enough. He was In lovo with her, but it was not enough. In time, he discovered that other women were neither bored nor blankly indifferent when he talked to them. In tho end, he and his wife were divorced and ho mar ried a woman who was not as pretty as the first wife, but who cared about sharing his interacts. TF possible, the war bride should try to finish college. She should learn to read the newspa pers intelligently and to grasp the issues that are at stake In the war and in the postwar world. And she must, by reading tl"- ', , counts of the war and the books of men who have been in action, try to understand something of tho experiences through which her husband has gone. These young women must ac quire a broad culture by reading not merely the contemporary ac counts of the turmoil in which we live, but the great books of the post which illuminate human na ture and bring the past, glowing and alive, into the present. They must know what men hava thought in the past, where they have succeeded, where they havo failed, before they con give con structive thought to the future. 1 would not venture to indicate what books should be read, what subiccts should be studied. These must be conditioned, in every case, by tho amount of education the war bride has received, by her particular interests and needs, and by her capacity for self-education. Her instructors, her high school teachers, the local librarian will gladly provide her with read ing lists. fpIIE democratic system with Its self-government Is based upon an informed citizenry. But the majority of the young men in the service have had their education curtailed. While many plans have been made to continue or to sup plement what education they have when Ihey return, the proboblll tics aro that only a few will take advantage of these opportunities. War Is, at best, an unsettling and a maturing process, and the re turned serviceman Is more likely to want to plunge Into earning a living particularly if he has mar ried in haste and has a wife to support than he is to go back to school. Therefore, It is up to the women, and particularly to the war brides, to continue their own edu cations, not only to carry on cul tural knowledge but to acquire the practical knowledge necessary to make a good, well-informed citizen.
