who is at the New Willard and has just
finished a course at the University of
Berlin, said last night that there is an
overproduction of university men in Ger
many.
The rapid increase IN the number of
students at some of the universities of
Germany is becoming a subject of con-
Germ" said DR.. Waterman. In many
cases the student body has already
reached unwieldly proportions. The en-
ronment this year is just about three
times the number enrolled ten years ago
a phase of the matter which receives
special attention is the growing dispro-
portion between the number of students
who are preparing to become specialists
and the apparent need for their services
after their graduation. 1t is estimated
that out of 10000 inhabitants of Ger
many. So have taken or are taking uni
versity courses. Thirty years ago there
were only A students to every 10000.
The courses most commonly taken are
those of philosophy. philology. history.
law. natural sciences medicine. and po-
li6cal economy. There is, Of course,
limit to the number of specialists in
these branches whose services can be
profitably employed in the world. and
educators are beginning to ask what the
outcome is going 10 be. With the higher
institutions of learning turning out
trained experts at the rate of 5000
year, il is asked. is not university
trained talent likely to become a drug
on the market?'
For Social Education.
Training of young men and women
for marriage and parenthood and in
structions in the social conventions
should be inaugurated at once by Ameri-
can colleges, according to Miss Marion
Talbot, dean of women and professor OF
household administration at the Univer-
sity of Chicago, who was seen at the
Shoreham. Race suicide and divorce can
be diminished by proper social educa-
ton. Miss Talbot declares She urges
the cultivation of a higher level of social
life in the colleges. while condemning
amusement in the form of dissipation"
and deplores the fact that some colleges
prohibit dancing.
Miss Talbot holds that the home still
is womans sphere, and always will be
for most women, but declares that the
home no longer is what it formerly was;
that it is destined to undergo still more
profound changes, and that efforts to
retain it on its old basis will. for the
most part, be futile.
THE art of hospitality in its true
sense" she says, lis disappearing from
American homes before a wave of ex-
pensiye entertaining. There exists at
present an imperative social demand that
girls shall be trained to be wives and
mothers and boys to be husbands and
and fathers. American homes are suf-
fering from a lack of wisdom in regard
TO the problems of parenthood and child
culture. The inCapacity of husbands
and fathers to contribute their share to
the family life manifestly is because of
the growing pressure of the counter
claims of business and professional in
terests."
