They All Wished, Us Well 'During the past week the corner store gossips and others who believed them have been circulating a report that the editor of The Advance -Time: has inherited 'ti fortune, the amount of which has run from $2,000 all the way' up to $8,000,000. We have been great- ly amused, and probably a little bit inclined to make light of the proferr- ed congratulations, even to .suggest. that the amount quoted was very wide of the correct amount, and .so it is. Alas! It is only: a' pipe dream some- one had and it doesn;t take long to, spread news .in a town the size of Winghain. We are just as natur- .ally poor as our friends have long, since known us to,be, .and 'we will • .have to continue struggling for a .number of years to come, in' order to make both ends meet.' One lady, said she heard of our good fortune, but did not think it was right because we had spoken to her that morning on the street, We would just suggest to those who have assisted in spread- ing the, joyful news, that they refrain from saying anything as long as we speak to thein on the street, There'll be two moons in the sky when we discontinue one of the pleasures of living, viz., fellowship and goodwill to our fellow men and women. MARRIAGE A VOCATION? While varied interpretations , have been put upon .Agnes' McPhail'S re- marks before the Business and Pro-. fessional Women's Club in Toronto;' on the question of whether women af- ter marriage should continue in their work or 'devote themselves wholly to housekeeping, and some interesting discussion has thereby been promoted on a topic which is always alluring; We do not read into Miss Macphail?s remarks" any attempt to lay down a rule of thein canon, governing the. career of women on entering the marital state. • Except under; special circumstances the presence of married women in the ranks of Weekly wage earners is per- haps not altogther desirable, but in the professions and in public life generally; a considerable increase in motherhood, but too often domestic duties and child-bearing are viewed especially by the masculine mind, through a too rosy base, of sentiment. Very often, too, those who prate most ' of the self-sufficiency of motherhood as a career are those who honour it least. It is not to be' doubted in many instances, marriage opens up new op- portunities es •fox• service rather than abruptly bringing to a close the car- eer of a public woman. . Nations are gathered out of nurseries and the woman who is both wife and motier creates for herself a bond of sympa- thy which should be the means of advancing rather -than retarding her career. Some women have a flare for poli- tics ---others for housekeeping. Some have the "school ma'am" instinct— others' the mother instinct. Often the woman whose borne life is per- fect makes a pitiful exhibition of her- self on the public platform, All women are not blessed with the ver- satility of Lady Astor. If a woman is happy with her husband and her babies, why upbraid her if she finds no :joy in party politics or in public life? So fat as the average >un of mor- tals is concerned, it would appear to be more a matter of teinperanient and •individual • circumstances,' Marriage their number would be welcomed by should be a mutual undertaking. Es all right thinking people, Higher sential to its success is the will to education forwomen resulting m their compromise and co-operate. Whether greater prominence as a social force;the public or professional woman in recent years has scuttled that old- 'tall or shall not continue her career, 'fashioned notion that -among women , after her marriage is, generally speak - celibacy was the inevitable accompani ing, a matter solely for the contract- ment of a "c-ireer." True, there are :ing parties to determine by mutual. many mature women in the/profess--; consent But circumstances alter ions and public life who rein un- cases: 'Women of the calibre of Ag - .married, perhaps very often for yeas- nes Mcphail who have carved out for ons based on their own idealism, but themselves unique public careers comae marriage is no longer accepted as a under' a distinct category. They are vocation itself. We are not unmind- under a sense of duty to the commun- ful of the sanctity of marriage and illy at large. We need more Agnes -747 the itemsmentioned below.
