She had to hide her fitness to live: and do her work in the world if she were to be happy in: it. â€"Those were the stupid days. Now there are the Girl Scouts, and things are different. A girl is no longer handicapped by the idea that she must hide the truth about herself. _ She is free to keep step and stride with her mate and beat him to the ‘woul if she can. She can stretch her arms and less and back and grow in real gtace and beauty | without fear of losing caste. . Health is no | longer disgraceful. It is even nosing out the | old standards of beauty. A beautiful girl of |\ today is one ~with windâ€"swept cheeks, sunâ€" | kissed, rainâ€"washed ; one in whose eyes shines the light of a disciplined and ripened conseiâ€" ousness; one who looks straight out on the world without blinkers and knows it for what | it is, a mixture of emiles and tears, of bitter= | ness an honeydew, of homely, wistful living.

I can‘t see it for my girl." Well, your girl is being cheated out of something vital to her growth and complete usefulness. The day of the cloistered woman is past, She can no longer function in this seurrying day. . Her home and her children, her work and her play, her experiences and her education, are all touched with this some» thing that you call a "little public." We have all become a bit more conscious of each other and each other‘s happiness and need, _ And it is that ‘public consciousness from which you shrink and toward which I would push you. ‘The home has wone out into the market place and if the woman is to keep a home she will have to be heard and felt and een in the councils of the fathers and mothâ€" We have all become of each other and each need.
