It is asserted by Henry T. Finck
that coeducation is a failure and on
trial for life. In support of this die
tum he cites prominent educators such
as Presidents Eliot, Hall, Hadley,
James and Jordan, adding that two
western universities have retreated
from their former position and are
now against coeducation. 1t had its
inception, he remarks, in the sparsely
settled west for economic reasons.
These reasons no longer exist, and the
west is beginning to feel the influence
of the east, which has been unfavora-
BILE to coeducation. In small COM
munity where all know one another, Mr..
Flinck says this institution is all very
well, but in populous cities juxtaposi-
tons arise that are evil in their re-
suits. Love making and marriage, "
he adds, quoting President Thwing,
undoubtedly are promoted by coedu-
cation. But scholarship is not adj
vanced thereby" And various terri

A large proportion of the transpor.
tation Of Mexico is done in two
wheeled carts, with wheels six feet in
diameter. This is due to two rea-
sons, one being that wagons are taxed
according to the number of wheels
and also because the carts can get
about narrow streets, which are so nu-
merous in Mexican cities.
