FROM THE DAILY OF FRIDAY,

THE Holloway College for women, in Eng
land, is rapidly approaching completion.
The total sum given is about 81, $50, 900, and
this is to be devoted to educating unmarried
women over seventeen years of age so as to
qualify them to pass the entrance examina>
ton Of the universities. The study of the
classics will be optional. There will be no
religious test, and no student will be obliged
10 attend any religious teaching that may be
given. Four years residence will be the
limit. except in special cases. and the twenty
scholarships of $500 each will not be tenable
for more than two years. At each annual
examination four founders gifts of $3.50 each
will be awarded. Mr. Holloway intends, of
course. that the college shall have the best
teaching power that can be obtained, and
consequently most of the professors or
teachers will be of the male sex, at least to
begin with. But it is specially provided that
no male person shall reside within the col
lege or on any part of the estate belonging to
it; and, to make this rule all the stricter. the
lady superintendent and all women employed
in household work must be unmarried.
Like most good things, however, it is not
free from imperfections, and the very worst
feature connected with this benefaction is
that which segregates the sexes. The true
system must recognize not only equal but CO
education-the training of woman to the
useful as well as the ornamental, and to famil-
iarize her with the world in miniature as
represented by the modern ideal school
room. ..-t-t
