MARRIAGE.
IS IT A FULL TIME JOBTON WOMEN?
"It certainly isn't a full time job for Mrs Oliver Strachey, Editor of the Woman's Leader, member of the stalf of the League of Nations Union, and Parliamentary candidate for the Brentford and Chiswick Division, and a host of other things.
In my case," said Mrs. Strachey to a Presa representative recently, "marriage is only one job out of three or four, - And there's time for them all."
"How much time do you spend at home
It varies. It deperals on what there is
to do. On the average, probably it doesn't aiaount to a great deal"
"Have you any children?"
"Two, Girl of ten and boy of five. The girl is at boarding school and the boy hus a governess."
Probably don't you think-une ought to be interviewing them
"Yes, I daresay," she laughed. "But I can tell you something the girl sail the other day. She said, "I do hope, mummy, that you'll get into Parlament, becaus then I can see you at Madame Tussaud's."
"Do you are much of them

of the cause.".
Not in the least. It's all for the good
al
What cause?"
The women's cause, the mother's
"And tire clillren's cause?
Yes. Why not? I'd be surry for my children if they had to be, with me l day. We should get on each other's nerves. It's better for all of us not-to- be always together...
Prolably you've noticed that A. S. M., Hutchison--the If Winter Comes..' wan-as just published another novel in which all the children of a modern freedom-loving type of mother come to the end."
"Mr. Hutchison isn't a mother," said Mrs. Strachey grimly."
"He might change his views if he were 2" We will hopeo. How is it that the first thing a woman does when she has enough money is to get someone to look after the children? And I'm not aware that they all come to a bad end."...
What of the six children of Lady Astarf As far as I know they haven't yet committed any serious crime. In my opinion a mother with plenty of outside interests, af activities makes a better companion for her children."
The other point of view is expressed by Mrs. I. Lamartine Yates, who resigned her sat on the London County Council because she felt that she was devoting to public work time and energy that should be given to home.
I became apparent to me," she said. "that I could continue my public work ouls by depriving my family of certain rites". which it is the peculiar privilege and duty of a mother to perform."
Yes, rites not rights" added Mrs. Yates. The word has a distinct mean- ing, and includes many things, all the indescribable little moments, all the things which mother only can do."
A WAR ROMANCE. MUNITION WORKER AND TITLED MAN'S SON."
The war t'm: romance of an attructire- 1king Stranraer willow, Mrs Janet Nichol, hu had a remarkable sequel. She has just learned that she is heiress to a fortune of £25,000, left by her husband, David Nich., who served in the Canadian Forestry Corps.
la 1915, Mrs. Nichol, or Miss Alexander, 13.she was then, secured a situation in the munition factory in the romantic village of Gratna Green. Two months later, she at teaded a dance given by Canadian soldiers camped in the district, and in the course of the evening met the man who was to be her husband. It was a case of love at first eight, and in aix months time, on December 3rd, 1916, the couple ware married in Gretna Green Parish Church. Her husband died from wounds received in France.
Mrs. Nichol returned to her parents in to the Stranraer, entirely ignorant as address of her husband's relatives. After the armistice, she became housekeeper to Mr. Corbett, farmer at Ervie, near Stran ract. In May this year she replied to an advertisement in a local paper, in which a brother of her dead husband asked her to communicate with him.
Shortly afterwards, she was informed. that her dead husband was a son of the Lite Sir Thomas Nichol, of Torento, and Her that she was. heiress to the fortune. little son of the marriage has had £12,000 settled on bim by his uncle.
Questioned as to her fature plans, Mrs. Nichol said the had stranged to get in terjed again prior to her good fortune, and explained that the lucky taan was Mr. Corbett, her present employer.
She is only 29 years of age, and at the time of her marriage was entirely unaware of her husband's distinguished parentage.
