French, philosophy, psychology, anthropology, and folk dancing axe among the winter evening pursuits to which the modern young woman addresses herself, according to Mrs. Hubback, Avho has taken up her as principal of Morley College, Bond on. Morley College is an evening school for men and Women, devoted to cultural, as distinct from utilitarian education. “It has about students now,” she said. “That is rather an effective reply, I think, to the constant stream of talk about the foolishness of modern youth.

The feminine element is predominant, I am sorry to say, for I should like to see it fiftyfifty.”
