The child whose parents seek freedom, leaving him to school or servants, never fails to nourish a sense of injustice.

Whatever one generation may decide as to the futility or burdensomeness of the home, the oncoming child will force its return.
To keep this permanent place abreast with growing truth, that is the obligation of the woman.

It is the failure to do this that produces what we may call the homeless daughter; that girl who loved and often served to the point of folly, finds herself in a group where none of the imperative needs the day has awakened in her are met.
One of the first of these needs is for what we call "economic independence." The spirit of our day and of our system of government is personal, material independence for all.

Under the old regime the girl had her economic place.

The family was a small community.
