meeting hfe's problems, and what rela-
ton good or bad) the curricula of the
college had to the solution. The answers
will be grouped, and a general meeting
to discuss the question will be held in
New ork city
The same subject was discussed at the
annual meeting of the Collegiate Alurnna
at St. Louis, last November 5. A paper
was then presented by Mrs. Ellen H.
Richards of the Boston School of Tech
nology, as the result of the action of the
Lake Placid Conference on Home Eco
Monies. AS early as 1902 the conference
unanimously adopted the statement that
subjects relating to the home should have
larger recognition in colleges and uni
versities, and that such work would con-
tribute to the solution of some of the
most important problems cf to-day.
The action of the president of the
General Federation of Women's Clubs,
at the meeting in Denver, is in line with
the same movement. She appointed
Miss Mary Abbott of Watertown, Con-
necticut, chairman of a committee to
formulate plans with view to intro
ducing special household arts courses into
the college.
The president of one of the leading
universities in the United States also Gin
his last annual report) has urged the in
auguration of carefully chosen courses
in domestic science, domestic art, SAM
tary chemistry, the fine arts and related
subjects" as electives in the woman's
college of the university
Already few of the colleges training
women have responded to this increasing
demand, and are offering special courses
dealing with the scientific treatment of
the household. Statistics show that there
is a rapidly increasing number of STU
dents electing such work. The ma
jority of the colleges, however, still
refuse to change, declaring that it is
not the place for the treatment of
these subjects.
Woman's home and social problems
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1905-06-11

and the present college curriculum I'M
doubtedly should have the most careful
consideration. If this close scanning
yields new subjects or new application
of old subjects which are worthy in con-
tent, offer mental discipline and culture,
and are capable of scholarly treatment,
they should, at least, be put to the trial.
The ordinary college professors, either
men or women are not the ones to or
game these new courses, nor, on the
other hand, should they be arranged by
women who know only the home. They
need the ripe wisdom of both, and must
uphold a high standard of letters and
science.
The beginning will probably best come
in special applications made in the present
curriculum. Such subjects as chemistry,
physics, history biology, psychology, art,
economics and sociology can all deal
with fundamental problems of the home
and the family. A few years of work
along these lines would test their value
and would give experienced graduates
who could aid intelligently in organizing
such new courses as were judicious.
Much already is demanded of women.
Men require that they have intuition,
health, tact, good sense, wisdom, moral
strength, divine faith, patience, forgive
ness, also that they should be well
dressed, personally attractive, successful
in all household affairs, and finally and
including all else in their minds, should
be womanly." Women are waking UP
to their great responsibilities along still
other lines and are realizing their present
unfitness for their work. They demand
special education of the men who are in
the college judgment seats, declaring that
the qualities expected of them and the
successful meeting of their numerous
duties may perhaps thus be attainable,
but not otherwise.

segments are pierced with holes.
Through these small holes the sea

Tombstone. Arizona. Wen Named.

The people familiar with the history
OF Tombstone. Ariz.. are inclined to
believe that there is something in a
name. Tombstone In 1878 became the
center OF attraction in Arizona TO the
pioneer prospectors when the frs,
mines were opened up at that point.
The population quickly increased to
over 5000 and 1t became the center
Of mining activity in the Southwest.
The last census gave the population
as 400. The mines are worked out
and the population has drifted away
10 more prosperous camps. Therefore
the town has indeed cc,me to merit its
name. for II marks the burial spot
of many blasted hopes
Many another Western mining town
has had the same history. though few
have so aptiy told IT to the world IN
