in the village, who kept the wood-yard just across Brighton Bridge. In my memoirs of Margaret Fuller Ossoli I have attempted to sketch the cultivated women who lived in Cambridge and were a controlling power. Mrs. Farrar, Mrs. Norton, Mrs. Howe, Mrs. King, and others,—of whom Miss Fuller herself was the representative in the next generation,—and whom I was accustomed to seeing treated with respect by educated men, although these ladies themselves had never passed through college. Yet Radcliffe was anticipated in a small way by the advantages already held out to studious girls through the college professors; and my own elder sister studied Latin, French, Italian, German, and geometry with teachers thus provided. Some of these instructors were cultivated foreigners, who had been driven here as German or Italian reformers, and were glad to eke out the scanty salaries paid by the college. In all these social descriptions I have in view mainly the region now called Harvard Square,

High School, under the head mastership of Ray Greene Huling, with 21 teachers and 674 pupils; and the Cambridge Manual Training School for Boys, under the superintendency of Charles H. Morse, with 10 regular teachers, 3 special instructors, and 172 boys, these boys being a portion of the 674 pupils in the English High School. These are the figures for December, 1895. Our schools give a wide range of choice to ambitious youth. Does a young man wish to fit for Harvard, a young woman for Radcliffe? It can be thoroughly done in the Latin School, which has a five years course for the purpose. Promising students can do the work in four years. Preparation for either of these colleges will answer for any corresponding college that may be selected. Has the pupil in thought the Institute of Technology or the Lawrence Scientific School? He may prepare himself in the English High School, with or without manual training. Is it an eminently practical course in carpentry, wood-turning, for
