are surprised when they are toli that
English recognition OF the commission is
impossible. They hardly understand why
they should be warned by London oven

Such language does not clarity the no.
si'ion to the Americans II simply creates
irritation and resentment The writer who
USED II would have reached the American
mind II he had merely asked what the
Americans would say II the case was re-

London. January 1.-The Chronicle. with
reference to the Venezuelan question con-
graduates the Times on the candor which

yet some asslffahce That the
toney devoted and the time given to
their education shall o haze been for
naught. But I do not think that these
parents take the slightest pleasure in
seeing their daughters wrestle with the
topics given them for their essays

yond the ken or conception of girlhood.
| took the pains last June t carefully
follow the reports of commandments
in different parts OF our country, and
the mistaken topics discussed in gradu.
ating essays were something remark
able.
Among the topics referred to he cites
"a History of Civilization" Republic
versus Monarchy Trades Unions
and Monopoly for Labor" THE Negro
and His Right to Vote" and others
quite as inappropriate for girls to write
upon. Mr.. Box contends that there
are plenty of topics to be found in the
realms of history, art. astronomy, lit

ment essays are deemed necessary

cussed than those referred to. y " =
But why have commencement essays at
all? For the most part they bore the
audience rather than interest it-and
bore the girls who read them, too, /
fancy. In several Of the colleges whose
commencement programmes for last
year lie before me, | notice that the ira
ditional essays are omitted. and simply
general exercises were followed: or an
address by a prominent educator was
given. The change is a welcome one.
and the principals Of colleges through.
out the country will be wise If they imi-
tate the examples OF these leaders,"
