TEACH GIRLS MORE OF LIFE'S GRACES Say Less of "Culture" and More of Simple, Beauti ful Things By DOROTHY 1)1 X While they are talking about voca tional BChools, don't you wish that somebody would start a school where they would teach a girl: First —To read. Not to elocute. Not to recite "Llt-tle M-a-a-ble with Her F-a-ace Against tho Window P-a-a-ane " or "Curfew Shall Not King To-night," but to read intelli gently, sympathetically, delightfully, in the refined, cultivated speaking voice that Is the most beautiful music In the world. The art of reading aloud has be* rome a lot art, and not one person in a, thousand can read even a para graph from the daily paper without it being an allllctlon so great thai THURSDAY EVENING, H?. 1 ,V? bc bornG with patience. 1 .. Y^ tton With Words Spoiled Correctly, Is A Mark of Ability Host of us are aware that neither we nor our friends know how to an , d sc ! . we wou 'tl no more think ol asking casual acquaint ances to read aloud to us than we would ask for an air from grand opera. et there is no other ac complishment in the world more to be desired than the ability to read aloud. Second —. Where she would be taught to spell. There may be no credit, as has been said, in spelling well but it is certainly disgraceful for a lady to spell badly. Third To write. The hallmark of a cultivated lady the supreme test of savolr falre is knowing how to write a charming 'letter and a graceful note. Half of the time when we send u litlle gift to a girl, or when some sorrow or Joy comes to us, we are treated by her with unpardonable rudeness. No line of thanks, no word of congratula tion or sympathy reaches us from hor. und the reason of It is not that she is lacking in politeness or good feeling, but simply that sh doesn't know how to write a letter. The time that girls spend in school composing laborious essays could be so much better employed if they were only taught how to write letters. No girl should be given a diploma unless she can sat isfactorily prove that she has ac quired the gentle art of writing the various notes demanded by the exigencies of civilized society. Fourth How to talk. The idea of teaching a girl how to talk may sound like carrying coals to New castle, but if I could only teach a girl ono thing on earth 1 would have her acquire a conversational repertoire that would be sufficient to meet all of the ordinary emer gencies of life. Every Woman Should I/oorn In Speak And Behave With Natural Grace A girl should be Just as much ashamed of making a blunder In what she says to peopio as she would bo of making a grammatical blunder in the way she says it. Yet the majority of girls were aptly de scribed by the Irishman who said of a woman that she never opened her mouth without putting her foot In it. A girl should be taught the art of gracious speech—how to be flatter ingly deferential to old people, and sweet and gentle to children; how to pay a compliment delicately without wholesale laying on of flattery; and. above all, how to receive a compli ment with modest appreciation. I have heard girls who, when any HARRISBURG !sss£ TELEGRAPH one made a nice speech to them, say brusquely and insultingly: "How much do you want for that?" a remark that should have sent them back to the kindergarten class in a feeble-minded institute, or else relegated them to the Home for Incurable Boors. Fifth How to be graceful in their deportment. For a man to clump into a room like a bull in a china shop is bad enough, but for a wo man It is unforgivable. A woman who cannot walk without knocking things down, who cannot touch your bric-a-brac without smashing it, who docs not handle old china as if It were a new-born babe, or touch fine books as if she loved them, is a monstrosity, A woman should be able to walk without making a noise, to move without Jarring things, to sit without sprawling or wriggling, to be. In short, a joy to tlio senses instead of an irritation to the nerves, and If she isn't taught this, no matter what else she knows, her education Is Incomplete, Sixth . How to dress. This doesn't mean to make her a fash ion plate, one of the poor crea tures whose brains are cut on the bias and shirred In the mtddte, but, to teach her how to dress In ordi nary, everyday sort of things so that she shall make the best of herself and tle most of the money she has to spend. And the poorer the girl is the more she needs 'this branch of education. The Eleventh Commandment For W omen Is To Be As Pretty as They Can It Is a woman's religious duty- to bo as good looking as she can. When God made her a thing of gracious curves, when he gave her the glory of long hair, and painted the roses on her cheeks, He In tended her to adorn life, and It is just us much her mission to do this as it is to do anything else. Now It is true that not every woman can he beautiful, but no one need he hideously ugly if she will take the trouble to dress prop erly. Tlio simplest frock may be chosen of a pretty color and made on lovely lines, the cheapest shirt waist may be put on properly in stead of hlt-or-mlss. For the woman who is frowsy and untidy, for the woman whoso skirts hike up In front and down In the back, whoso belt and skirt miss connection, and tho various colors of whose raiment swear at each other, no excuse can be made. She Is an eyesore to man, a blot on the landscape, and she has frustrated the plan for which Bhe was made. The remedy for this is education, and it is far more important that a DECEMBER 2i } 19i6; girl should be taught to have some sense of color, and value of lines, and given some knowledge of how to dress herself properly than it is that she should be given a smatter ing of the ologies and isms. In short, don't you wish you knew of some school to which you could send your daughter where she could be taught the accomplish ment of being a lady? And isn't that about the highest education that you can give to any girl?
