THE OLD IDEAS.

Standsrda:
• The education of Iapaneao women
up to !recent times hes been planned
with the main. idea of ispbuilding
their moral character. Row to he
a geed wife, how to be a, wise mo.„
ther; these, say e Jbazo Norm& in
the Oriental Review, have been, the'
questions to which the minds of
japapese girlshave 'aben directed
century after century..
All the booke written for the adi-
Acation of girls were those el' ethi-
cal instruction the teaching of the
daughter how th behave toward her
parents, of the wife. to her husband
and the mother eo her ehildren: One
of the aecepted precepts for women
was the, teaching -of `three stages
of obedience." '
It said: "When young obey your
parents, when married obey your
husband, when old obey your eon."'
This idea of womanly ebedience has
undergone a, decided change in mo-
dern Japan, although this principle
remains that moral eultur•e shall
have the positi*n of supreme impor-
tanoe in 'women's education. • •
It is import -at for .the correct
understanding of oonditions Ja-
pan to bear in mind that moral
culture has always, been the all ini-
protant object of the education of •
the daughters. of Nippon. Undee
thesc. circumstanees it is only na-
tural that religious , and -ethical
teachings should have form.ed the •
basis of education both for men and .
for women. • -

Even at present' there' are some
