Show IRIJ'SJMETS IDA M. TARBELL'S ADVICE TO MOTHERS Writing of "The Homeless Daughter" Daugh-ter" In the American Magazine, Ida j M Tarboll says:J ' "The Uneasy Wo wan of today who has fulfilled to the letter, as she undostands it, the woman's business, ; is frequently heard to say: 'My boys are In college, they do not need me. My girls arc married or at work and they do not need me. I have nothing to do My business is complete. com-plete. I am retired, sidetracked. It Is for this reason that 1 ask a part In politics.' But her argument proves that she does not understand her business. She may want and need I some outside occupation for the very . health of her business, but certainly j not bocuuse her business Is done. j , "Thero is no more critical time for ' her than when Tfer young people go out to try themselves In the world. The girl particularly needs this pull of the home, not only to keep her on a straight path but to keep her from the narrowness and selfishness which overtake so many self-supporting women who have no close family responsibilities. re-sponsibilities. The fetich which has been made for man yyears, now, ot work for women, that Is, of work outside of the home, frequently leads tho woman to tuko some particular virtue to herself for self-support. She feels that It 'ciitltles her to special spe-cial consideration, releases her from obligations which she does not oIun-tarlly oIun-tarlly assume. The attitude is ,cnough to narrow and harden her life. The great preventive of this disaster r'is a responsible home relation. If she .must share her earnings it Is a blessed thing for her' If not, sho shouldi share Its burdens and Its hopes, In'order to have -a continued sourco of outside interest to broaden an dsoften her, to keep her out ot the ranks of the charmless, self-ccntored, self-ccntored, single women, whose only ocupations are self-support and self-care."
