Ideals of home life are either lacking or distorted in the minds of many working girls, and when such girls become wives and mothers they strive for the wrong things or they fall back without striving at all, taking merely what comes. They fail to be forces for good in their family life. Teaching and nursing may be grouped together as excellent preparation for the prospective homemaker.
