The majority Of women in most co-educationaI

capable OF putting their knowledge to an actual

tion' as most OF the college women I know
preparing 10 be teachers.
The fact that women in the same college
with men does not prove that they follow the same
branches Of study. Miss WaIbridge mentioned
mechanics and surveying useless to women. In
our co-educationaI college, which has attend
ance Of L4O0 regular students, there is not one
woman engaged in these studies. The largest at

liberal arts college, where devote time to
the modern languages as well as TO the dead ones,
literature. history and mathematics.
Now, admitting that the COMMON destiny Of
woman, not the inevitable destiny Of evecy college

RESTRICT HIGHWAY OBSTRUCTION

Acting Mayor Guggenheimer said yesterday that
the indiscrimnate tearing up OF streets by con-
tractors and corporations would have 10 cease and
that he was going put a stop TO IL II II lay in
his power. He said he had looked up the law on
the subject and found that the provisions OF the
charter gave the Commissioner Of Highways powers
of the broadest character, and that he could by a
regulation of his Department restrict corporations
from tearing up more than specified number OF
blocks in a street at any time, and also TX a
limit within which the work should be completed
Mr.. Guggenheiner said that. in his opinion. no
more than ten or fifteen blocks OF street at any
one place should be up at a time as mer-
chants complained about injuries TO their business
and public health was also menaced. He declared
he would have resolution introduced in the Mu-
nicipaI Assembly imposing certain restrictions on
contractors and corporations. One good result from
this crusade he said, that the work in Forty

tractors would be finished in three weeks.
