says WOman's Life.
Believe in the man you take as
your lifes partner; be gentle with
him, don't contradict him when he is
tired; let him think he is having his
own way in his own house; feed him
with what he likes and laugh at his
jokes Herein lies the secret of a
happy home.

n N Memorial Day three tablets were
" unveiled in the Hall of Fame of
the New York University in honor of
three women-Emma willard. Maria
Mitchell and Mary Lyon 1t is the
first time that women have been so
honored.
OF these three women, one, Maria
Mitchell, was an astronomer of note,
who received national and interna-
tional recognition. The other two were
educators, through whose efforts sem
inaries for women were established on
broader lines than any schools yet
thrown open to women. 1t was in 1919
that Emma Willard addressed a ,rea-
tise on the Education of Women" to
the New York Legislature, and in the
same year she opened in Waterford,
N. Y, school, which was incorporat-
ed and partly supported by the State of
New York. In 1921 an appropriate
building was given to her by the city
OF Troy, where she removed her school.
now known as the New York Female
Seminary. Her textbooks were trans
lated in many languages and had a
large sale.
Mary Lyon did pioneer work in Mas
sachusetts along the same lines.
Through her efforts Mount HolyoKe
Seminary was incorporated in 1886.
Although the preparation required by
her was in advance of what was gem
orally regarded as necessary for wo-
men, the response that greeted her was
unhoped for. Some 200 students were
refused the first year for lack of room.
and 400 of the second year. Her SEM
mary did much to alter opinion with
regard to womens training. Hun
dreds of students scattered over the
country and did missionary work IN
the cause of higher education, and
helped to bring about the present stage
in woman's development. The multi

in the front is heralded by the Marie
Antoinette models. These have tiny
plated frills arranged upon either side
OF boxplait covering the opening of

frills have their edges cut in deep
pointed scallops and then embroidered
in tiny scallOps with colored threads
Little embroidered dots are then set
in these scallops and form a border to
the frills.
The close high collar is finely tucked
and embroidered to match the frill
and a little lingerie bow, embroidered
in the same fashion, is set at the head
of the frill. The sleeves are rather
full and reach well below the elbow

N a school recently the class was
l. told to write essays on the subject
Food" and some of the pupils show
ed their memories were very treach-
erous. One little girls essay was es-
pecially indicative of the acquisition
OF mass of undigested facts:
Cheese is as wholesome as eight
and one-half pounds of beef.-Beef is
a useful article of food obtained from
different animals, such as the COW,
sheep, pig, etc.-The lean of beef be-
longs to the animal kingdom, and the
rat to the vegetable kingdom Butter
- SOou III lut DIdlu.-Mllk is called a
model food because it models the form
OF the child.-Without eating potatoes
we would become very delicate, be-
cause potatoes are very necessary to
sustain human life.-Pot-au-feu is
mashed-up meat-Cretins are general
ly served up with green pea soup
If man lives without food for con-
siderable time, say GO days, he will die
at the end of month; or, if the con-
stitution is delicate, he may only live
for a week, or less"
