Families Than Harvard Men

New Haven, March 11.-Accarding to
statistics of s~iXty-nine classes, collected
by Clarence Deming. the birth rate among
Yale; graduates is falling off as greatly as
President Eliot finds among Harvard men.
The figures show a progressive and rapid
decrease as one comes down toward the
later classes. The period covered by the
inquiry was from 1910 to 1875. In the first
period of thirty-two years the births were
413 to each 100 Yale men; in the second
period of nineteen years the births We're
1893 to each 100. and in the third period of
eighteen years there We're 255 births to
each 100. These figures almost exactly
confirm President Eliot's statement.
