SINGLE - WOMEN.
Their Position After the War.
Olementins Black writes
| the Dady Nowe as follows som
The war will leave behind it s greatly increased proportion of . single women, whose work of various kinda will be of greatly increased importance to their country. ¿What ought to be done | to improve their working powers?" And what return will their country owe thema ?
~~~~Their powers will be improved. by faller training, faller respon sibilities, better prospects, and better nourishment: for body and mind. Women are, on the whole, capable and adaptable creatures, but they are not miraculously experior to their brothers, and must not for instanos, be expect ed after a three weeks' training- course, to perform with adequate amiciency the duties relinquished by a olerk of three years' standing, They must, to begin with, be se well trained as men, have been Even then, their powers will probably not equal those of men unless they are sufficiently well paid to be set free, se men are, from the burden of cooking their meals, making sed washing their clothes, and clessing their rooms, nor unless they can be as well fed se men, and have money to spend their leisure as enjoyably, If in. all these respects, women are meanly treated, their powers of work will safer.
«Nor" must' 'it be expected of them that they should be pleasing: ornamenta 26 wall an, efficient workers. Employers who want their offices decorated must not complain if they get inefficient work; and employers who want fficient workers must not come plain it such workers fail to prove decorative. Again, if women are to work as well as men do, they must have the same prospectti,
There are rumours that in some departments of the Civit Bervice women are deliberately kept in subordinate positions and prevented from doing responsible work. It is clear that if or where. ach a system prevails the coun try loses the beat services that women Cân gire; and that sny superiors who imposed or en- couraged it would be, in fact, engaged in defrauding their country.
And what return will the country owe to the women upon whose labours it will so largely dépend ? In anewering the former question I have, it appears also answered this. The country will owe them, on moral and equitable grounds, those very advantages which will make them valanble ne workere; training, the absence. of "demands that are not made upon employed man, opportunity of rising to the highest place and sufficient payment to allow for |||| leisure, recreation and mental
development.
It must be remembered that the: family responsibilities of nomez- ried women will be increseed; there will be fewer sons to help in supporting aged parents ; more orphaned uisces and nephews; hundrede upon hundreds of partially or wholly invalid male relatives. In one sense these tien will help to compensate for the lack of hasband or child; hardly a epinster will feel her love and oare unneeded. Bat they will also tax her fienossa fact that should be remembered whenever the wages of women are debated.
