“The fetish of the great university, of expensive colleges for young women, is too often simply a fetish. It is not based on a genuine desire for learning. Education today need not be sought at any great distance. It is largely compounded of two things, of a certain snobbishness on the part of parents, and of escape from home on the part of youth. And to those who must earn quickly it is often sheer waste of time. Very few colleges prepare their students for any special work.” NeedsTwoHomeTodayYoungDesireCertainParentSpecialYouthStudentsCollegeWasteDistanceUniversityGenuineTwo ThingsExpensiveWasting TimeSheerYoung WomenAcademiaFetishSnobbishnessEducation Today Author:Mary Roberts Rinehart
“War is not two great armies meeting in the clash and frenzy of battle. War is a boy being carried on a stretcher, looking up at God’s blue sky with bewildered eyes that are soon to close; war is a woman carrying a child that has been injured by a shell; war is spirited horses tied in burning buildings and waiting for death; war is the flower of a race, battered, hungry, bleeding, up to its knees in filthy water; war is an old woman burning a candle before the Mater Dolorsa for the son she has given.” ChildrenHas BeensTwoWarEyeGivenWaitingWaterRaceBoysSkyBuildingSonFlowerBattleHorseArmyBlueMeetingsHungryBurningKneesCandleTiedShellsInjuredClashBleedingOld WomanFilthySpiritedBlue SkyFrenzyBewilderedBatteredTied UpBurning BuildingsGreat ArmyCarrying A Child Author:Mary Roberts Rinehart
