sPINsTERs As TEACHERS.
President of Tufts College Would Bar
Them from Girls Schools.

President of Tufts College Would Bar
Them from Girls schools.
President Frederick W. Hamilton OF Tufts
college, Medford, Miss, has come out with
the positive assertion that unwe6ded teach
ers should be barred from girls colleges be-
cause their influence is harmful. DR.. Ham
iiton says:
Il do not believe that young girls who
are Just passing into young womanhood
are in the proper environment when they
are continually brought into close personal
touch with elderly unmarried women.
THE large proportion OF women's col
leges are in the hands OF women teach
ers. however. and the educational atmos-
pkere OF the places is feminine, the pecu-
liar type of feminlnlty developed by highly
cultivated mddle-aged, unmarried women.
Now, while the type may be very fine in
dividuGlly, It is not the proper one TO create
the atmosphere for girls At the formative
period OF their lives. Girls just coming
into womanhood are receiving their most
valuable Impressions and the future atti-
tude toward the questions Of this time.
Their outlook on life, which believe is the
most important part OF the college train
ing, should be broad, and It can not be
so unless formed In an environment of
breadth.
In the lower grades Of the schools, too,
and In preparatory schools the influence
OF tho unmarried, middle-aged woman Is
counteracted by the dominating influence
OF the home. believe that an element
OF married teachers, widows who we're
teachers before marriage. perhaps, would
be beneficial. The relationship OF these
schools and their pupils is different, how
ever, because the pupils live at home.
The girls at college live 4 purely aeade-
mic life They are on their resources and
they face problems that are quite new TO
them. They are TO be trained to become
competent and important parts OF life, we
hope. They need a large outlook and a
broad viewpoint The elements which go
to give these must be brought into their
lives at the psychological time. and all
elements tending toward narrowness should
be eliminated"

staff OF the high school regiment, held by
Assistant Principal Bernstein Friday after
noon, It was decided to conduct q pun
ishment squad" in confirmation with the
new rules adopted by the cadets for this
year, The punishment squad" is to be in
charge Of either a captain or a staff Off
Ger. 1t will be conducted on a scale much
less severe than that Of West Point. but
will have as much bearing on drill. The
adoption of this rule, providing for extra
drilling OF the delinquents is not because
of any growing disorder among the cadets,
but is established as a means of preserv-
ing order among the companies.
