At Bryn Mawr, in 1SSD, S3 per cent were teaching and 11.4 were engaged in graduate grad-uate study. Radcliffe had 17.5 of her alumnae unmarried un-married and without professional occupation, while Bryn Mawr had 26.6 per cent. Recently Bryn Mawr has published figures for 1901, collected by her Alumnae association. Now it is 'seen that only 30.8 per cent of Bryn Mawr graduates are teaching and percent engaged in graduate study, while 24.4 are married, if the two classes last graduated are riot included. But the investigation has established the fact that the women of this generation possess far better educations than thejr grandmothers did. More girls go to college now who wish the best intellectual intellec-tual training but do not intend to teach. ' This is an era of higher education among women. It is a regrettable re-grettable fact that this is not true with regard to the men. A practical education is a young man's best capital. Statistics prove that the young women are more impressed with the value of intellectual training train-ing than the young men. But so far as the question as to whether college women marry or teach, in the absence' of figures, we must fall back onanist ory, which indicates that it is woman's destiny to wed.
