Miss McClintock Says This Question Most
Important To Be Discussed By
Federated Woman's Clubs.
The following interview with Miss
McClintock upon the importance of
intermediate schools for the South
and the good work which may be
done towarda securing them by the
approaching convention of the Fed
erated Clubs for Woman's Work to
be held in Columbia is from the Col
umbia State. Miss McClintock is pres.
ident of the Presbyterian College for
Women in Columbia. and is the
talented and accomplished daughter
of Dr. E. P. McClintock, of Now
berry. The State says:
There is an immense amount of
interest in the convention of the Fed
oration of Woman's Clubs, which be
gir.s hero on April 21, and those per.
sons who are laboring under the im
pression that the ladies are coming
here from all over South Carolina to
(iscusA new Parisian vogues, multi
colored spring gowns, lingerie and
all the fol de rol that sometimes
makes the heart, of woman glad
n:igkt just as well dissipate the idea
Neither is it the purpose, so far as
can be ascertained, to seriously con
sider the advisability of bifurcated
or abbreviated skirts, after the fash
ion of the Rainy Daises and Sorosis.
Very different snbjects will inter
est the hundred or more delegates
and some of t.hese are of the deepest
posible interest to the people of
South Carolina and of vital import
ance to the welfare and advancement
of the whole State. Among these
is the edocational question. Miss
Euphemia McClintock, the president
of the Presbyterian College for Wro
men, who will be a sort of steering
committee for the convention, ro
ceived a letter from the president of
the federation yesterday and it has
been practically decided that the
morning and afternoon Resions will
Lhe given up to business and the
evenings the ladies will give up to
recreation.
On Thursday evening there will
be a music and art reception at the
Presbyterihn college, which Miss
McClintock hopes to make exceed
ingly interesting. The (1Uestion of
advancing the usefulness of the
State schools and the paramount
importance of intermediate institu.
tions will iii all probability be the
all consuming theme for discussion.
Miss McClintock, who is a South
Carolinitn by all tates ani inlclina
t.o,has made an e'xhaiust ive stutdy

and she is frank in the st.atemenmtt hat

dening in the south, and yesterday
they had on their best dress. It wa,
high noon and the brilliant sun rays
fell through the forest of trees on
beds of luxuriant violets, bay trees,
sweet olive, clinging vines of wistaria
jessamine and the thousand and ont
rare plants that grace the grounds in
rare brilliance. The rippling melody
of innumerable song birds fillea the
air, rustling spring zephyrs stirring
an accompaniment among the bud
ding leaves radiantly green. Here
and there through the vistas of hedge
and clinging vines now and then one
caught a glimpse of some pretty giri
in white. In all verity the atmos
phere seems to have been preserved.
Discussing the needs of the State
in an educational way Miss McoClin
tock said after the writer had come
back to thf prosaic that because t here
was no high school in the State the
colleges were now compelled to take
girls that were really not far enough
advanced. This was not as it should
be and she hoped very much that
something would come out. of the
discussion of the Federation.
"Are you im favor of the very ad
vanced ideas' that exist in the big
colleges of the east, Miss McClin
tock ?"
"I am in favor of anything that
fits the woman more thoroughly for
her duties in the home. I am a firm
believer in mind training and I do
not believe in teaching the girl math
ematics because she may need that
study later on, but because of the in
fluence on her inind. There is soie
thing she should know besides the
polite accomplishments."
Miss McClintock's attention was
called to the immense harm that had
been done by some of the great east
ern colleges for women. It was meni
tioned to her that in a little village
in Maine the other day it was dis
covered that among 1,700 women in.
habitants there had been only seven
marriages in the last five years. A
large proportion of the women in
that place were college women. Miss
McClintock answered the relative
query by saying that out of five of
her students that would graduate
this year only one intended to accept,
a calling.
"There is no danger of any such
results here," said Miss McClintock.
"The southern girl cannot stand the
drive that a girl in the north can.
They have to be nurtured and cared
for and fo.r that. reason all the condi
tions for her advanement should be
of the best.''
Mis. MleClintock weont on to ex
plain that tihe college education she
hoh eves ini and( practices is the onie
which hest fits the girl for her home
life. 'T' polite accom plishments are
of course necessary, but there must
be somet hing more-son et hing t hat
trains the mind.
The writer tried to gather fromi
Miss McClintock just how far this
education must go, and called her
attention to the fact. thnat the number
of Vassar, Wellesley and girls from
thle other big colleges ini the northi
and east. who did not or could rnot

Sixth Session of the Conference foi
Education in the South will be open

This body was formally known as
the Capon-Spring Conference. Iti
annual meeting was held last yea,
at Athens. (Ia., and in the precediug
year the Conference gathered al
\Vinston Salem, N. C. The presid
ing officer is Mr. Robert C. Ogden,
of New York City, and among the
ten mlost closely connected with itt
origin wHs t he late Dr. J. L. M1
Curry, agent of the Peabody and
Slater Boards, member of the Goner
al Education Board, and supervising
direct or of Ihe Southern Educatioe
Board. Inioed, both the Souther[
and (eneral Boards may bo said tc
owe their existence and inspiration
to the Conference for Education in
the Soub jnst. as this Conference so
largely owed its own inception to the
work of )r. Curry.
The decision to hold the Con for
encO this Near in Richmond waF
reached only after the Executive

spective coos-deration to the invita
tions from a minber of representa
tive Southern cities. The invitation

E(dicationIal Assoeiation, the Rich.

South must deal, but they have also

r and resourceful purpose with which
- the people of the South are respond.
ing to these difliculties
The place of this Conference in
the life and interest of the South is
t indicated by the fact that its result.
ing t:rganizations, the General and
Southern Education Boards, have ro
ceoived the cordial co operation of the
Bureau of Education in every South
ern State.
Such gatherings, moreover, are not
the outgrowth of only one or two lo
calities or of only ote gronp of imen.
They represeit the governing point
of many lines of interest. and co
operation. And yet the Cotn ference
has taken its plice in Southern lifee
largely because it hits done so much
to create aid to interpret what runy
be called the eharncteristic genius of
the two Boards to which reference
has just boon mnalo.
The success of the General and
Southern Education Boeards (organi.
zations but little ntoe ithan a year
old) has bello duee not. so miuch to any
new element in their methods or to
any distitinctive qualty in their per
sonnel, but rather to the spirit in
which their tmethodls an)d their pear
sonnel have touched hie inteerests of
the South.
Theso Iboardis have toucliede the
life of the South not upon the as
su1m1ption that local initiatIve is ah
sent, but upon the assum pt.iotn that
the many noble evidences of its exist.
once inay well challenge t he co-oper
ation of an intelligent patriotismi inl
the country at. largo. They have
worked not, upon the utderstanding
that the failure of earliesttiess do.
mnands the offensive solicitude of tho
missionary, but ill tcordial apprecia
tion of the fact that the i,outh, with
an aindant eariestness, in trying
to bear alone those burdens which
the whole country has cretted, (de
serves in her nit ional task sotet hinig
of at national response.
In fulfilmont. of this spirit the Coi
ference for Education in the Soul It
has invited to its sessions hundreds
of representativo citizens from every
section of the country, tlthough the
Conference will be open to all who
may be interestoi in the subject of
its deliberations. These will gather
in Richmond for the fort her earnest
consideorationl of thet great cause
which Dr. Curry loved to diescrihe in
his own sim plo demiocrat ic pihraso as
"'the educationi of all the people."'
Thle outlook for a large and repro.
