Service. Special Cable Dispatch.)
London, July 1s.-Oxford has
granted degrees to women and
Cambridge is making up its mind
to do likewise. But the opinion Of
men at both universities tends to-
ward the formation, of an all
woman residential university on
American lines.
The men fear that the granting
of degrees may result in such
stream of women students as Will
sacrifice the tradition of small
classes and Individual instruction.
Many Applicants.
The number of girls wanting to
study at the older universities is
growing. The number of applica-
tions for Girton and Newnham
alone is stated to be at least seven
times as great as the number OF
vacancies for the next university
year.
But while men are advocating a
separate university for women,
women, both professors and stu
dents. oppose the plan and want
co-education.
One reason put forward against a
woman's university Is the cost.
Money is needed by every college
for education. II large sums are re-
quired to found a new institution
the education of the country as a
whole will suffer. Unless a women's
university were situated in the
neighborhood of oxford or Cam
bridge, the woman would be de-
prived of the facilities for research
provided by the libraries and labora-
tories. II woman's university
were sheltered under the wing Of
either body, the present position
would remain practically un-
changed.
Women Get Ambitious.
The suggestion of the women's
university is rather beside the
point" said Prof. Winifred Stephens
of Bedford College. We have al
ready. in Bedford College, a wom-
ems college attached to a univer-
sity, with the added advantage that
il the women wish they may take
the same lectures as the men.
Women are certainly becoming
ambitious" she concluded. quite

piled for.the post of scientist in the
British polar expedition which is to
start next month. They were not
successful, but II shows the right

The straightest. eontrariest hair can be

that the use OF the drying. singeing, blister
Ing curling iron Is altogether inexcusable.

out being in the least greasy, gummy or
streaked. The effect lasts very much longer
than where curriers' alone or waving irons are

The silmerine Is best put on with a clean
tooth brush. drawing this through the hair
from crown to tip. preferably after dividing
IL into strands. The application seems to
gradually improve the texture and health Of
