graduates marry, and. II 30. at what
age they decide in favor OF making the
momentous change. To arrive at some
solution OF the problem he has been
studying the catalogues OF Vassar.
Smith. and Wellesley Colleges. as well
as OF the coeducational institution at
oborlin, and the result is summed up
in the conclusion that as time goes on
college women are less inclined TO
marry. He says: at Is absurd to
suppose that college women differ from
others in possessing superior attrac-
tlveness in mature years. and we are.
therefore. led to conclude that the col
lege graduate has been growing less
and less inclined TO get married, or less
and less able. or both"

NEARING HOME.

What does the distant glimpse reveal
The first far glimpse of home?
What do the sheltering hills conceal
From those who roam?
Ask of the wandering exile when
He turns his steps toward home again.
A thousand landmarks pass him by,
Familiar voices call;
He has a brief and swift reply
For and all.
For, shining through the roadside trees,
At last at last his home he sees.
For him no roads the shorter way.
To him all speed is slow
His thought outstrips him day by day,
No rest to know
Until at last he stands within
The smiling homeland of his kin.
