The following statement in the secular press is truly styled by one daily “an amazing bit of news.”— The other day the dean of one of the largest of our colleges for women made an impassioned appeal to young mothers not to waste their time in the personal care of their babies, but to give them over to trained nurses or kindergartners, while they devote themselves to study and such outside work as would fit them to be companions for their children when they were grown. Prophecy announces as one of the characteristics of the “last days” that men will be “without natural affection,” and the foregoing statement would indicate that some persons, at least, had about reached the extreme of it. When it comes to schools for women, taught by women, emphasizing the propriety of mothers neglecting the personal care of their offspring, how much further can we go? “Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget,” says the prophetic Word, but who would have dreamed of schools where they would be taught to forget?
