There are plenty Of institutions s0sc;alh

you may readily see, IS all n the first two let

Brow Bachelor OF Higher Domesticity. ths
High Brow Bachelor and the Medium Brow
Bachelor. Graduates VIII be required TO aaix
their degrees after their names en- al Official
documents, including love letters.
This touch, We believe, Will do more than al
