having expressed their regret for their
course in connecting themselves with
prohibited societies, and given their
pledge to have nothing to do with them

to return to the college. In connection
with this act Of the Faculty, President

opinion that secret societies were iniuri-

wasting so many hours over things that
are utterly useless. Spreads are prettier
and cheaper than quilts; yet how many
women think it is impossible to keep
house without spending great part of
their time tearing up calico into little
bits and sewing them together again.
The time spent in this way would bring
a rich harvest if spent with books and
papers. Not only in making patch
work quilts is time wasted with the nee
die and thread, but in making many
other things that can be put to no prac-
tical use. It is the better part of art to
make useful articles ornamental; but it
is worse than folly to spend valuable
time in making dainty nothings.
Woman has so long been a slave to the
needle, that it requires time to emanci-
pate her entirely from its thralIdom;
but the day is dawning when, instead of
its being looked upon as idleness for her
to rest without needle in her fingers,
it will be counted as worse than idleness
for her to have it always in hand.
MADGE BRIGHT.
