CERTAIN men who amuse themselves and
annoy their friends by continually declaring
against the impractical and superficial educa-
ton of women, will be delighted to learn that
bread-making match has just come off in
Miss Catherine Beecher's Seminary at Hart
ford. Some time since, so the story runs, a
man who had married graduate of the
school found that she was deficient in bread
making, though model in all else. So he
offered prizes to the undergraduates. Four
married ladies and professor of chemistry
were the judges, and some excellent bread
was the result of the trial. Since the prizes
were awarded none of the competitors have
had offers of marriage; which goes TO snow
that men are terrible liars when they affect to
approve what they are pleased to call the
sspractical education of women.
THE town of Westbrook has evinced for
several years past very commendabe enter
prise in educational matters. 1t has abolish
ed the district system-a step that has proved
eminently satisiactory-it is on it's second
year of successful trial of the Free High
School and in April, at a special town meet

and $4,000 were appropriated for the pur

Friday next to see if the town will vote to re
