Abby Rockefeller, daughter of one
of the richest men in the world. is
VoOOn to marry a young lawyer, who
.sccording to what. might be consid-
ered her standard of wealth would
be poverty-stricken.
But like a “use young woman it
will be his standard of wealth that

Miss Rockefeller and the modest be-
ginning: she and her bridegroom

stance. began at the age of seven or
sight. and was 30 cents a. week. out
of which she was allowed to spend
only 10.
Even at that age. Alisa Abby"
Bockeicllcr was taught to keep sc-
ccunts. and it is not expected the fu-
ture wife of the young attorney will
bave any difficulty in making her
household books balance.

In authorized spokesman the other

"1 have no thought of giving great
mounts of money to my children to
use in accordance with any passing
mood." this spokesman said, using
tho language of Mr. Rockefeller,
“and Abby is no exception." |
“Of course. I do not mean that any
of the children are to be cramped

plained that beginning at the age of

had received an allowance of :0

be saved. 10 given to church or Sun-
doy school and only the remaining

"I explained to them the impor-
tance of keeping accounts." Mr.
neckefeller was quoted as saying
“and at the end of the week I aud-
Iod the accounts. A few years latcr
any were getting 81 a week. and
to teach accuracy rewards and do-
mes-its were given. If the account
was correct the child received 81.05

“Until they were fifteen none of

(From the New York World)
, One of the most important recent
developments in American educa-
tion is the decision of the Johns
Hopkins university to do away with
undergraduate and vocational work
and concentrate on higher educa-
tion and research. By this step it
gets back to its original reason for
being. And the step took courage.
For a number of years it’fostorod

Maryland. it acquired a campus. and
dormitories rose on it. Undergradu-
ate enrollment lncicaeed. The foot-
ball team showed signs of life. Cheer
leaders became important members
of the community. And all' this
-progreas and prosperity was in line
with the general trend in our uni-
versities. The decision to discard
it means going counter to the popu.
lar attitude. and probably to ‘ the
sentiment of many Hopkins mes.
Nevertheless. we may ' up.
