TheVimlication of
The OLD MAID
T HE Old Maid, that personage form
erly considered a permanent and
proper butt for the efforts of the
jokesniith along with mothers-in-law and
hen-pecked husbands, is about to come into
her sphere of rightful respect.
Ma rried people formerly were fond of say
did not know how to
bring up children, in
fact if an unmarried
spinster ventured to
offer a suggestion as to
the t ra i n i n g of the
young she was apt to
be scoffed at by the
aforesaid parents.
But with the age at
which women marry
steadily growing later
and later, the world
has begun to look upon
the spinster in quite
a different way. Putting the shoe on the
other foot, one must confess that it has not
been proven that old maids do not know how
to bring up children. And it has been demon
strated that ninety-nine out of a hundred par
ents, or some such percentage, are utterly un
fitted for the vocation if t hechildrenthemselves
may be regarded as competent proof.
It is safe to say that children brought up
in institutions are much better mannered
than those brought up
in the home. Cer
tainly they average up
better and this goes
far to rob the ancient
old maid theory of its
value.
Most teachers are
old maids, if the age of
twenty-five be taken
as the boundary of
spinsterhood, and most
teachers are good dis
ciplinarians, and ex
cellent educators of other people’s children.
What better vindication could the old maid
have than the daily witnessing of respect
for the teacher and disrespect for the mother
of the average child?
The one inspires love through reverence,
the other through a species of tyranny.
Most children would lead their parents “a
life of it ” if they could ; few dare or care to
annoy “teacher” beyond a certain stage of
infantile restlessness.
The old maid in charge of a child is ham
pered neither by sentiment nor the irritation
of responsibility. Neither has she any fear
of displeasing “ Papa ” if she deems it wise to
dispense punishment. She looks calmly and
cooly over the situation like a man surveying
a chess-board, although not playing the
game, and she is not sympathetically biased
by the personality of the antagonists.
She sees the cause of Johnny’s wrath and
its result; the mother sees only the cause, or
its effect upon her Billy, according to which
of two boys she chances to be the mother.
So while the old maid punishes in accordance
with reason the parent punishes in accord
ance with her own temperament, or her sym
pathy with her, perhaps, misguided offspring.
It is a painful but undeniable fact that
most children are bad mannered, yet one
could hardly claim that all their parents are
also bad mannered. So it would seem that
the parents do not know how to bring up
their children and that they must have re
course to the calm capacity of the old maid
who can certainly do the job better if she
undertakes it at all.
1905; Guinevere’s Lover
{Continued from preceding page)
were everything to a man, with your attrac
tive looks, and exquisitely cultivated intel
ligence, to say nothing of your wonderful
love for the creature, he would not care a
snap for anything else on earth or whether
he had an heir or no, but if he can’t have you
for his love and yet mayn’t have another wo
man for his wife and the prospect of a son, it is
abominably hard upon him. So face all these*
points, Guinevere, and make up your mind.
I will stand by you however you decide.”
Thus the letter ended, and as I read the
closely written sheets all thingsbecameablank
for a few moments while I stared into space.
Yes, my sister had put the case fairly,
and I must make up my mind, and then, for
the second time in my life, I flung myself on
the floor, in this my turret room, and burying
my face in the faded silk curtains of the east
window I gave way to passionate weeping.
