WORK IN HOME
OUGHT TO BE SHARED. ACCORDING TO BRITISH NAVAL OFFICER. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, October 11. When young women marry they should see from the outset that the work in the home is shared, declared Commander T. D. Galbraith, R.N., Conservative member of Parliament, when addressing the Scottish Association of Girls' Clubs in Glasgow. He added tha it was extremely doubtful whether many women, having tasted the joys of economic independence during the war, would willingly abandon it. The present school curriculum was too academic, and the idea should be instilled into children, particularly the boys, that it was incumbent on them to help in the home. “Why should women alone be supposed to cook, wash, knit, darn and sew? Husbands should share the work with their wives,” he said.
