If it be asked why college women
marry less than others, it may very
safely be answered. to begin with, that
it is pot because they crave more ex-
citing and public life, for the majority
of them are schoolteachers. In the reg
lister of the association, address after ad-
dress is at solxe school. Nearly 63 per
cent of the California branch are teach
ers The association includes but "a
physicians and half dozen lawyers,
preachers and journalists. A few mem
bers are Librarians or employees of some
scientific staff A very few are in indie
pendent business.
The women that write striking books,
that lead in public movements, that nd
dress great audiences, that explore and
venture, are rarely among them. The
conspicuous exceptions, notably Lucy
Stone and Frances Willard, were among
the earliest graduates The present type
of college woman is conservative, retir-
ing and more apt to disappoint eHpecta-
ton by differing too little than too much
from other respectable, conventional
folk, exactly as college men do. 1t is
probable that in the very general EN-
ployment of college women as teachers
in girls schools lies one effective cause
of celibaoy There is no station in life,
save that of nun, so inimical to mar
riage as that of resident teacher in a

mentioning every symptom of which
they complain, and he will answer the
letter, explaining each symptom and
describing the case so thoroughly that
patients understand their complaint "a

The leading article in the November
Forum will be discussion of the
third-tcrm question by Professor John
Bach McMaster, the historian, entitled
The Third-Term Tradition" MIR. Nc.
Master cites the well-known historical
presidents against a Presidential third
term and thinks there is no reason to
believe that the Old-time antipathy to a
third term is one whit less strong than il
ever was. Mr. McMaster says that
while our practice of choosing Presi-
dents, not because of their fitness, but
because of their availability, is in theory
all wrong, in practice no harm comes
from it; for under our form of govern
ment we do not need President of
extraordinary ability; the average man
is good enough, and for him two terms is
ample What we want, in Mr.. Nc
Masters opinion, is strong government
of the people by the people, not a
government of the people by strong
man, and we ought not to tolerate any
thing which has even the semblance of
heredity.
