Light for New Times: A Book for Catholic Girls

By Margaret Fletcher

The nineteenth century, era of change and of unexpected developments as it was, has brought about no change greater than the present altered position of English women. That certain fixed peculiarities must differ­entiate the sexes will always be true, and these must largely shape their respective pathways in life.
A new era for women was beginning, and what model could be more appropriate than Mary? In every change there is contained more or less of a reaction; the reaction comes about by the awakening of forces hitherto inoperative, and in the new-born vigor of new forces there is apt to be too much of a reaction.
There is a gap in our Catholic literature for girls which needs filling up, and all earnest and practical and intelligent efforts to fill this gap should receive the welcome they deserve.
