1t has long been a favorite that
girls are smarter than boys, especial
ly in school and college. DR.. Taylor,
president of Vassar, explains the rea,
son. "Wemen," he says, "go to col
lege to learn; men do not. While a
good many men do succeed, there are
many more who are interested in
sport, and even those who do study
do not take any pride in letting the
others know they are working. Girls
are conscientious; they are far more
Inundated by failure than men," DR..
Taylor admits there are physiological
reasons why the girl is smarter than
the man at the college age, says the
New York American But it is also
