"Knowledge
is good,
whether
immediately
useful
or not;
that the
object
of her
studying
is not
merely
to learn
something
which
she can
put to
practical
use, but
self-improvement
for the
improvement's
sake." |

came to
spiritual
and
physical
improvement,
music
was an
excellent
format,
but,
when it
was a

of pure
entertainment,
a party
was
expected
to look
to the
ladies. |
