' "The woman who apends her life in the same 'social set' atrophies; the wo man who comes In contact with the world broadens and understands." ,. "Nome' life is narrowing,! and unless supplemented by education leads y the Ufejn 'social sets,' so disastrous to the 1 development of Individuality, f Even ed ucation, la not effective in the develop ment of character unless it' is applied in the form of some positive, occupation.
