tabllshed.
AYE, we must look TO see the good
Of all the schooling as your fathers sunk

as made my fortune without it," II is
thirty-four years since Colonel Higgin-
son asked the significant question:
Ought women 10 learn the alphabet"
The answer 10 these two queries covers
the whole question Of the higher educa-
ton Of women. That woman viii have
not only an education but education to
the extreme limits Of human knowledge
is a fact they have established for them
selves, as is evidenced at Girton, Newn-
ham, Nassar Wellesley, the Harvard
anne. the Baltimore College for Women,
and elsewhere. But these institutions are
not so much answers 10 the questions
as stable, organic parts Of our modern
educational system. Frederick Robertson
says instruction ends in the school
room, but education ends only with life.
And education is TO unfold nature;

gain self-help; 10 make a man." and

Of misconceLtion as TO its Interior OBJ
tect. one Of these. and a sadly common
one. Is the idea that this higher education
presupposes that the superior knowledge,
discipline and skin attained is solely FOR
use in some professional sphere Of life.
The fallacy which underlies this thought
IS the common illusion that the real value
OF anything is its immediate utility. AZ
its best. this is only half truth. The
result OF the college training women are
receiving has been the immediate and
notable fdvance OF the standard OF edu-
cation all along the lile IN what we de-
mand OF our teachers but this training
Of teachers is only an incident OF great
work

OF women is not in training them FOR epe-

took place on Sunday at Ward Chapel, Of
which he was u member and trustee, and was
the largest ever held there, between five and
six hundred persons being present. The
services were conducted by Rev. t. f. Peters
the senior pastor. The pallbearers were Eli

Ridgely, Simon Golibart and Ross Banes.

he will be removed, las the church only allows
the junior to stay that length of time at one
place., to another circuit, probably as senior.
The recent haw caused the ice on Morgan's
Run to break up, and at Steele's dam, where
it empties for nearly half mile up stream, is
gorged, ranging from six to ten feet high.
Above the dam on the Patapseo it is reported
to be piled up for mile above. Should there
come sudden thaw with rain there will be a
great deal of damage done to property along
the Patapsco. Old inhabitants say they have
never seen the ice banked up so high before.

and characteristics. Look for return Of
heavy storms of rain and snow at any period
and be fully prepared, as before, for very
great cold to attend and follow after the
storms.
If there be reaction from the great cold
to follow the storms of the last period. it will
come on and about the both or 2lst, in which
event there will be more rain and snow and
the regular rush of cold will follow promptly
up TO the entrance of the next regular storm
period.
About the oath, indications of the last reg
ular storms of the month will begin. South
erly winds and rising temperature, with per-
haps considerable thawing, will admonish Of
approaching storms. The danger days are
