MARRIAGE AND CAREERS
The woman who combines a career and marriage fares better than the careerist pure and simple, but none knows better than such a woman the terrific strain of a job plus motherhood. It takes the vitality and genius of an Ellon Terry to stand the racket of both without paying a high price mentally and physically. Therefore, women are drifting „ back from careers to marriage and motherhood, They have seen that their ambition finds little scope in careers because most women who work do unsatisfying routine jobs alloted to them because they cost less in wages and salaries than men. They see also that Nature's way is wisest, if only because any woman would rather be the mother of a really satisfactory baby than be Prim® Minister.
