Love TAkona

The ancient English custom Of giving
love tokens on the Goth Of August died
out many years ago. The custom was
for "enamoured maydes and gentle
women" to give to their favorite SWANS
as tokens of love little handkerchiefs
three or four inches square, with Q but
ton or tassel at each corner and a
small one in the center. The finest Of
these favors was edged with narrow
gold lace or twist and then folded
up in four cross folds so that the
middle might be seen. They were worn
by the fortunate SWANS in their hats
pr on the breast. The favors were gen.
orally the handiwork Of the "faire
maybe" herself, and well she liked to
work the most beautiful figures she
could for her favorite suitor, but they
became so much in vogue In Queen
Elizabeth's time that they were sold
ready made In the shops. This. Of
course, destroyed the romance Of the
custom, and hence its death.

College Women and MARRIAGE

BY l. CLARK sEELYE. President OF smith COLLEGE. Northampton. Mass
THOSE who claim that higher education units women for
marriage fail to recognize that thrcefourths Of the alumnae
of Smith college have been out Of college less than ten years,
and as the maximum number of marriages is in the oldest
and the minimum in the youngest class the rapid increase in the latter
will make any percentage drawn from the whole body Of graduates
appear ~ABNORMAIIY LOW.
What is Of more Importance is to take into account the different
social and physical conditions Of the educated women. One must
know from what classes they come and whether they were PHYSlC-
ALLY SOUND at their entrance to college. Due credit should be
given to abundant testimony that the majority of women improve
physically as we'll as mentally during their college course.
Women's colleges take a pupils those who have been suffering
from hereditary ailments, from the requirements of fashions and from
allow estimate of the dignity AND CAPACITY of womanhood. In
spite of these drawbacks they have clearly demonstrated woman's
physical and intellectual capacity for a collegiate education and the
worth Of that education to her in practical life. They are as ready to
wed as other women WHEN THE RIGHT MAN WOOES THEM.
Marriages of convenience are not made as often by college graduates;
accordingly there are fewer divorces among them. Their children arc
limited by the same cause which are dominant in the society to which
they belong:
EXCESSIVE MENTALITY MAY INTERFERE WITH FEcUNoiTY,
BUT THE FACT 70 THERE Is VERY LITTLE EXCESSIVE MENTAL.
