If we look over the period covered by these memoirs (lives of Presidents llnr nard and McCosh)wc can see what changes have come to pass, says the Atlantic. Ilrieily stated they are these. Tt is most remarkable that pecuniary resources have increased enormously and this has made possible belter building's, larger libraries, more teach ers. Private gifts, land grants and leg islative appropriations have nil con tributed to this result. With more lib eral expenditures, there has been greater freedom in every detail. The rigidity of discipline has been relaxed, manners are not so stiff, there is far kss of petty regulation, the teaching is not so severe, the methods of living are much more civilizing. "The curric ulum" has gone. Either absolute election or a very large amount of choice is now permit ted. With the abandonment of one lived course this required amount of Greek and Latin lias been greatly dimin ished and it is demonstrated that class ical studies have gained more than ttu..y have lost by this change. History, Enflish, French and German receive an amount of attention that was not given to these subjects 30 years ago. On the other hand, (here is less atteption to public speaking. Of great importance is the wide introduction of laboratory methods in the study of science, espe cially in physics, chemistry, physiol ogy, botany and geology. Athletics hae made marvelous advances. Fi nally, the admission of women to the advantages of higher education, either by eonducution, or by "annexes," or by separate foundations, is one of the greatest gains of the period under re view.
