Realizing Their Capabilities
No longer satisfied with the old

the finishing school," young women
have come to realize their capabilities
and demand an education the equal Of
that afforded their brothers. Their
demand for a real college has been
met by the establishment of a mum.
Der OF women's colleges In the eigh-
teen or twenty standard colleges for
women there are more than 10000 stu

the State universities and co-educa

ing higher education is constantly
Increasing. The best colleges devoted
to women are full to overlooking. An
excellent method by which to estimate
the advance in the higher educa ton

money invested in them.

BOAT UPSET; SIX DROWN.
Father and Babe, Brother and Sister

The boat left Geneva on the east
shore of the lake at O'Clock in the

hour later the boat, struck by a sud-

wind and almost instantly all of the
16 persons aboard were thrown into
the water. The boat turned over and

an opportunity to hold to it. Benja-

and they sank Together.
Edward B. Holmes heard the scream
of his fiancee and as soon as he could
locate her in the water he went to hei
aid They went to the bottom claspeo

Frank Brown saw his other sister
struggling in the water and went tc
her assistance. He was exhausted
when he reached her and she was com

struggle. Her brother caught her bu

Women who are passing through this

of the fact that for thirty years Lydia
