woman'S ScIf-nppraisnI Best.

Is Mr.. Shaw justified in claiming there
is so much sham about society?
When money makers seek mental OBJ
livion they break into society. The un-
realness the shams. the suGar-coated
lies, stereotypcd expressions. and forced
effort TO forget amuses those who. fresh
from the firing line, know the real strug-
gle for supremacy in life's battle and
view the mimic warfare of society lead
crs with a feeling of listless interest.
Possibly they are dragged in by the fe-
males of their family who try to use the
chlorOfOrm of wealth on all rivals. The
strained effort to retain youth and re-
tard age, to make believe, to realize
pleasure and conceal sorrow or secret
grief, makes of society a money-mad
aggregation of shams living in an alb
normal state of unhealthy excitement.
True. there are Intelligent and reflective
members of society, like Mr.. ]. T. Martin,
whose book, The Idle Rich" is warn
ing of deep significance, but they are in
the minority, and hence negligible
quantity among those who care nothing
for mind, morals, or manners, but every
thing for millions. Thus all classes of
society are touched by the blighting
hand of the smart set, and the false
pretense. affected naturalness, and DOM
inant desire for display makes Of society
a dangerous whirlpool, Turing many to
destruction.
do American girls entice men into
marriage rather than risk single life?"
When a woman is able to appraise
herself at her real value she is not apt
to try and entice a man into matrimony.
She is sought rather than being the
seeker, and her self-knowledge enables
her to make an intelligent selection OF
a husband rather than take anything
that wears trousers. Many women are
eXacting and demand too much from
men, who are not willing to suffer mar
tyrdom. and hence these careful weigh
ers Of what they exact and expect in
many instances. travel the journey alone;
but the average woman is governed by
her love, impulse, and emotion. and,
while the man may sense the preference
for him, women of to-day are too eco
nomically independent to waste time try
ing to, entice some thoughtless man into
the matrimonial net. Single life, to
many women. is the result of falling to
meet the one who appeals to their pc
culiar needs, and the usual man is i'm
possible, as they are not deceived oy
illusions. This is so sudden is a stock
phrase, and no girl is startled by the
unexpected (?O declaration of an ardent
admirer. She may. not entice him, but
she is not running away from an an
ticipated proposal if he is the right man.
Women have only brief period IN
which to select life partner, and they
are to be pardoned if they use their
best efforts to please and attract de-
sirable man. who, In their Judgment,

GALLERIES WITHOUT POSTS.
Novel Construction Used in Theater
at Colorado Springs.

at Colorado Springs.
In the building of theater in Colorado
Springs REINFORCED concrete was made
use OF throughout. and the galleries are
without posts or other supports, so that
every spectator has an unobstructed view
OF the stage. In order to satisfy the city
building authorities OF the strength Of
this structure It was put to a very prae-
teal test. The gallery was loaded with
76S sacks of sard. each weighing 100
pounds. Two sacks were placed on each
seat and four sacks on each step OF the
four aisles. The Balcony was loaded with
LIZA similarly distributed. The city engi-
neer took levels with a Berger level and
self-reading rod. reading to huhdredths
OF foot, and the maximum variation
was but eos foot. On the next day. using
the same level and rod, and taking ele-
walton from a bench mark outside OF
the building, levels were run over the
same points. showing q maximum de-
Election OF Dol foot. After the sacks had
been removed. another series Of levels
gave the identical results obtained in the
FIRST instance. Probably there was alb
,solutely no DETECTION, since IN reading to

ton in the plurbing OF rod win show

RandoIph-sEaeon woman's College.
The New York Board Of Education
istes the RandoIph-Macon woman's Col
lege Of Lynchburg higher than any
other similar institution in this country.
The Randolph-Nacon system OF schools
and colleges has enrolled a larger number
OF students than any other system in
Virginia \
Randolph-Macon woman's College was
conception Of Chancellor Smith, OF the
Randolph system, in response to
proposition from business men Of
Lynchburg that a Randolph-Macon In
stItution be located in their city. Twenty
months after the proposition was sub
mitted the college opened with thirty
six boarding students. II was halt a
building. but in II was a whole college.
That was in 1s01 since that time the
college has grown and expanded TO meet
the constant clamor of students for ad-
mittance and the requirements OF a
great national college for women. RAN
dolph-Macon woman's College stands to-
day as a representative OF the South
among the sixteen colleges for women
in the United States which are classified
in Division A by the United States Bu-
reau Of Education. Il Is situated in a
beautiful park Of ffty acres, extending
from Rivermont Avenue to the James
River. The section is picturesque,
healthful, and inspiring of beauty.
Space will not permit the enumeration
OF the many things that can be told In
behalf Of this glorious achievement. The
purpose OF the founders was expressed
in the following statement: I'VE wish
to establish in Virginia a college where
our young women may obtain an educa-
ton equal 20 that given In our best col
leges for young men and under environ
ments in harmony with the highest
ideals Of vomanhood; where the dignity
and strength OF fully developed faculties
and the charm of the highest literary
culture may be acquired by our daugh-
ters without loss 10 woman's crowning
glory-her gentleneSs and grace"
The desire thus expressed has been
realized beyond their most sangulne ex-
pectations.

Rivermont Realty Company.

LSnchburg, like most OF the older
Southern cities. has an old and a new
section. Some twenty years ago. having
outgrown her then available territory. a
handsome steel bridge was erected across
a ravine, which separated the city from
a stretch Of beautiful outlying country,
and what is now known as Rivermont
was opened up for development Here
within the last decade or so have been
erected many Of the city's handsomest
homes. About three years ago the cor
pOrate limits Of Lynchburg were extend
ed, and Rivermont became a part OF the
city proper. Recently a contract has been
let by the municipal authorities for the
paving of Riverr1ont Avenue. the prtn-
cipal thoroughfare Of this section, and
within the next two years approximately
$4,000 will be spent by the city and
other interests IN the improvement Of this
street. the result OF which VIII be to make
Of Rlyermout Avenue one Of the hand
scmest boulevards in the South.
Perhaps the most potent factor In the
development OF Rivermont has been the
Rivermont Realty Company. IN addition
to large holdings on Rivermont Avenue.
