had talks with several students on
the subject of matrimony, asking them
how they thought the girls generally
were disposed to regard marriage and
what they would, rs rule, consider a
proper manageable age. They all
agreed that twenty-four or twenty-five
is young enough for Il girl to marry;
but they differed upon the other ques-
ton. Some of the younger students
with whom ] discussed the matter were
disposed to think there was largo per-
ccntagc of the girls who definitely in
tended not to marry, but to devote
themselves to some specific career,
some chosen art or profession. But n
senior to whom l put the question:
young woman of brains and observa-
ton, and who has written quite extern
sively on college topics as we'll as in
other fields-assured me smilingly that
this was 4 mistake.
'Our girls marry" she said. THAT
is just what they do-they marry.
Some arc engaged when they come hore,
when, of course, they are apt to marry
almost Immediately after graduation.
The proportion is large-very large-of
graduates who marry in n comparative
~ short time-say one or two or three
years-after leaving college. The per
cent of girls that are here, fitting
themselves for some chosen
career or profession, is smaller than
you would suppose. know collected
statistics upon this subject some time
ago; haven't them here, and cannot
trust my memory to give you the per-
cottages rs made up from the reports
of several hundred alumnm; but
know the relative proportions are as 1
have told YOU"
Indeed the work done seemed appall-
ing to me. But my views on education
are very unorthodox. The idea of
sending young people to college latter

mar and preparatory schools) where
for four years they work up to, and
many of them beyond, their capacity,
