great deal is said to-day about the
college, bred woman. AS. until recently
the State of Virginia at large has not
been trained to estimate the real mean
ing and exceeding value of such term
in the application to womanly training
and upbringing. the Old Dominion meth
DDS of feminine education have fallen
into disrepute in the estimation OF an
n,;yaneed class of female thinkers. with

OF governesses and private schools many
Virginia women. along with ancient and
modern languages and English literature,
