Hey Stioufd flare Education
for Domestic Wort.
Icallv asserted Mr. Schwab. "I
not hesitate to say that the domestic
servant has far greater advantages
I in every way than the woman wage
earner in any other field.”
“Then you would discourage the
| woman lawyer, artist, merchant
and all the rest?”
The (.duration That Counts.
QWIMS THE MEN MOST ADMIRE
lousehold Work is Not Humiliating
or Dcgradiug. and Such an Idea
Has Brought Much Trouble
to the World-The Home
l Needs Women; Not the In
dustrial World.
*t'ut girls in the kitchen. Teach
them housewifery. Take Women out
of the shops, stores, business offices,
out of studios, colleges, laboratories,
and music schools. Let them work
a* domestic servants. There is no
Held that offers better opportunities
of success for women than that of
domestic service.” _
This Is the kernel of an argument
•y Charles M. Schwab, the steel
magnate, in which he disposes, in
one sweep, of both the servant prob
lem and the question of the wage-
earning woman.
“The business world is no place
Ibr a woman,” warmly dealares Mr.
Schwab. The domestic life is the
•aly life that gives her a chance to
develop her best”
In an interview the former head
of the United Staten Steel Corporation
expressed these opinions.
“is it possible for any woman to
sake a great financial success?” was
«s*ed him. “Has she the ability—
the requisite brain qualities?"
BIr. Schwab smiled.
”1 decline to be quoted on that,”
ke said, with Just a twinkle of amuse
ment in his good-natured brown
eyes. He is all good nature, is this
giant of the financial world.
His very presence, which is simple
and unaffected, seems to radiate an
ample kindness and good wilL He
aeems more the man of the home
tkan the man of finance.
Greater Work Elsewhere.
“It isn’t a question of whether
am man has the ability to succeed in
tta financial world,” he said, “it Is
afenplp that she has greater work to
da elsewhere. Home Is the only
place for a woman. She is entirely
ant of her sphere In business
the professions.
“But suppose conditions compel
her to, adopt a life outside the
“X certainly would. The only edu
cation for women that counts is edu
cation In domestic science. No wo
man can be truly called educated
who does not know how to keep
house, it is five hundred time more
Imixirtant that a girl be taught to
cook and mend and wash dishes and
darn socks that she study Greek
| Latin, literature, and music. If wo<
men only realized it, such accom
plishments do not win the admiration
of man.
"Of course, I don't presume to say
that man's approval is what women
are striving for. But It's a fact, nev
ertheless, that men don't like brll
liant women—clever girls—girls who
are ambitious fbr worldly success.
The way to win a man is to know r how
to cook three square meals a day for
him and make his home a haven of
rest”
Here are thf qualities, says Mr
Schwab, that men admire in women
Gentleness, modesty, domestic at'
tafnmnets, a retiring disposition, wa
manliness, sweetness of temper.
Here are the traits men do not ad
mire:
Boldness, aggressiveness, ambition
for worldly power, brilliancy of in
tellect.
“The woman of today,” declared
Mr. Schwab, "makes a tremendous
mistake when she scorns the house
wife's occupations and attempts man's
work in the world. The very labor
she disdains offers her the best op
portunities for achievement.
"It is all a mistaken idea that
household work spells humiliation. It
exalts rather than debases woman.
The most successful women in this
world. In my estimation, are its house
keepers. Homes today are crying
for the work that women know best
how to perform.
“It Is the home that needs wo
man, not the business world. At the
industrial school which I opened at
Homestead, Pa., I made the question
of domestic science the one of para
mount importance. For It is, In
deed, the most Important one in the
world for any woman.”
Mr. Schwab said that he had been
asked to give a talk on “The Lan
of Opportunities," in New York,
that he would do so In August
”1 hope you will be present.” he
at| d I concluded. “For you will hear more
of what I think about success and
woman’s real opi>ortunity.”
