Young ladies frequently give themselves up to study to the neglect of other branches of education even more essential for practical life than the study of books. And after having obtained their education, they are often invalids for life. They neglected their health by remaining too much indoors, deprived of the pure air of heaven and of the God-given sunlight. These young ladies might have come from their schools in health, had they combined with their studies household labor and exercise in the open air. {3T 150.1}

Unge damer giver ofte sig selv hen til studiet til forsømmelse af andre endda vigtigere uddannelsesgrene for det praktiske liv end bøger. Og efter at have opnået deres uddannelse er de ofte blevet invalider for livet. De forsømmer deres helse ved at blive for meget indendørs, frarøvet himlens rene luft og det Gudgivne sollys. Disse unge damer kunne komme sunde fra deres skoler, dersom de havde kombineret deres studier med husligt arbejde og været ude i den friske luft.
