Evidence OF Christianity.

The best evidence of Christianity is
the life of the Master brought down
to date. AS Jesus was the incarna-
ton of the Father we must incar-
nate the mind and spirith which were
In him. A man who had greatly
wronged another was freely forgiven.
AS he clasped the reconciled hand of
the man he had sorely injured he said,
with entire sincerity, "Now l know
that Jesus lives!"

Few as were the automobiles in use

yesterday was even smaller, the request
Of the fuel administrator to abstain
from operating a machine on Sunday so

day was not at all inviting for pleasure
or, indeed, for any kind Of riding, and
only those who were Obliged to make
use OF their machines did so.
All Of the thOroughfares leading to

serted Of autos. BY actual count the
number Of automobiles seen on the
Boulevard between the hours of 10 and

three were Out-Of-town machines,
In the various garages all the automo-
biles remained idle. Only those belong

EXPECT LARGE CLASS
AT TWOMEN'SCOLLEGE
New Course in Agriculture
Will Attract Many
Students
DEAN ROBINSON
MAKES STATEMENT
pecial to The Evening Iournal.

Special to The Evening Journal.
NEWARK, Sept. 9.-The indications
are that the Women's College when il
reopens next week will have the larg-
est enrolment since it was started four
years ago. Dean Winifred ]. Robinson,
is greatly encouraged over the pros
poets OF an unusually large entering
class. The new course in agriculture is
expected 10 attract many students. Dean
Robinson makes the following state
ment relative 10 the institution:
1.-THE Women's College of Delaware
was opened four years ago with the
purpose OF working out problems in
the education of women as distinct
from those involved in the education Of
men, and TO do this at so low a rate
for living expenses as TO make its adj
vantages available for every young wO-
man who desires them while its in
struction and equipment should be OF
the highest degree Of excellence.
FIFTY years OF higher education for
women as demonstrated by our West
ern cO-educational universities and our
Eastern colleges for women have shown
that women are capable OF assimilating
the same mental calories as men. With
the change in the economic status OF
women that has gradually been taking
place until il was hastened by the war
attention has been called to the neces-
sity Of educating young women to en-
able them TO enter some one Of the
ever-increasi1g number OF occupations
open 10 them as a womans way rather
than a mans way. Thus. the history,
mathematics, language study. and sci
ence Of the old curriculum are com
bined with the scientific study Of COOK
cry, care OF children, clothing. and
household management leading TO a de-
gree in home economics that involves
as much hard study as a lawyers de-
gree. A similar combination Of parts
Of the arts and science curriculum with
study OF the problems OF education
and the mind Of the child affords prep
araii0n for teaching which may be ap-
piled not only in the school room but
in the rehabilitation Of disabled sol
diers which will be a part Of the re-
construction work that must follow the
war. Agriculture is one OF the fields
for women's work which the war has
developed in most democratic fashions
as is witnessed by the organization Of
the WOmen's Land Army or American
which includes women from all classes
Of society, in the units Of women work
ers now established in 81 States.
"'The Women's College Of Delaware,
centrally located as to the northern
and southern Atlantic states, and IA
vored by climate with a long growing
season, has strong advantages for the
teaching Of agriculture including crop
production, horticulture, Bookkeeping
and stock raising. The state experiment
farm OF 200 acres with an able staff OF
instructors, is within ten minutes walk
Of the college. Afilliation with Delaware
State College for men makes it possible
to Introduce rXceli0at courses in farm
ma .Seinent and the use Of farm ma
chinery. Agriculture promises to have
an interesting development at the Wo-
mems College Of Delaware"
