Proud of Them.

We can no longer think, with Per
icles, that good report for woman
means a minimum of any kind Of re-
port about her, whether for good or
evil, nor with DR.. Johnson that when
she speaks in public she is like pig
standing on its hind legs; it is not
that she does it well, but you are sur
prised she can do it at all" We are
as proud of our famous women as we
are of our famous men, and some OF
the very best speakers in the world
today are women.-UniversIty Maya

band, were hurriedly broken from the
line of march and FASTENED to tbs

and made way for the apparatus

turn by the dense throng.

nighted regions.

Native pine trees do not grow thick.
