The Girls Study—the Boys Frolic.

We are gradually finding out that thoughtful men—men of education and fine feeling, and especially those who have attained to public distinction—are disposed to give wr'men their just dues. Professor Taylor, of Vassar College, who h»s had unu-ual opportunities to measure the ability and poss bilities of girl students, announces his conviction that “if boys and girls were placed together in the same college, with exactly the same chances and opportunities, the girls would not only compete with but would surpass the boys, not only because of equal brain ability but on account of superior application on the part of girls, Girls will, as a rule, devote the evening to study, while boys are frolicking. ”
