WOMEN AND THE PROFESSIONS
Views of European Teachers on ThsiP
Aptitude In the Sciences

Aptitude In the Sciences.
Some years ago q Berlin journalist,
Arthur Kirchoff, addressed a circular
to over 100 German professors and men
Of letters, requesting their opinion on
the admission of women to university
education. AS regards admitting them
TO the same classroom as male students,
there is in Germany a general agree
nent on the part of German professors.
The object is twofold-First. the dan.
ger lest the presence of Young ladies
should disturb the attention of the men
students; and secondly. the liability OF
the professors TO descend To the level
Of their female auditors.
In the domain Of medicine and SCH
ence the German physicians are said
In general TO have little faith IN the pos
ability of women attaining superiority
In these branches. "As the result OF per
sonal experiences" writes DR.. Frrund.
director of the university clinique az
Strasburg. ''the aptitude Of women for
medical studies does not rise beyond
mediocrity. All that can be done by
zeal. application, order ard perscrer-
ence. they accomplish They fail. TO al

then resume It's action. Sometimes such
lapses would not be so frequent as that, but
scarcely day passed that they did not occur.

A Eenedcers Lane.

According to Prof. ForeI. OF Isr
sanne, the Lake Of Geneva. lying in The
deep valley between the Alps and Jars
mountains, perform. a remarkable
work for the benefit of man. During
the summer its waters store Up a great
quantity Of heat, which is slowly radi-
it~d into the air in the course of the
following autumn Thus the freezing
currents descending from the snow
topped mountains around are warmed
and tempered, and the atmosphere
eIoug the shore of the lake is main
tesned At moderate temperature. Ths
excellence Of the grapes which produces
the celebrated white wines OF this re-
yion Is thought TO b largely due 20 the
influence OF the lake upon the condition
OF the atmosphere. But the remote de-
sccndants Of the present inhabitants
viii experience quite different state
,. affairs. for Prof. Forel saws that in
