A Woman Superintendent.

The momentous question whether il
should be lady superintendent or wom-
an superintendent has been decided by
the trustees of the normal college. The
executive committee had recommended
that the bylaws of the college be amend
ed by designating one of the professors
woman superintendent.
Commissioner Lummis said he pre-
ferred lady superintendent. While there
was no doubt that woman superintend-
ent was correct, still he thought the term
was not generally applied in institutions
of as much dignity as the normal col
lege. He made an amendment that lady
be inserted instead of woman.
Commissioner Hubbell said woman
was better form than lady. Mr.. Lum.
mis- withdrew his amendment, and it is
now woman superintendent New York
