    God protect us from the efficient, go-getter businesswoman whose feminine instincts have been completely sterilized. Wherever women are functioning, whether in the home or in a job, they must remember that their chief function as women is a capacity for warm, understanding and charitable human relationships.

    Though far from nature’s limits thrown,
    We trust they find a happier land,
    A brighter sunshine of their own.
