Judge Charles 3M. Fooll, of the' superior court, allowed that amouttt today to attorneys for the -parties in the suit to contest the will. The suit grew out of the efforts of Peggy Marsh ,London music hall sing er, to obtain .a share of the late Henry Field's interest in the Feld millions for Jher thi'co year old son, whose *thor, she claims was t'enry Field. The coxyt upheld all provisions of the will and denied Miss Marsh's claims.

" - We note that an effort Is to be made at -the r ext session of the legislature to secu:e a 'woman's building for the University of South Carolina to cost $250,000. We understand that 70 wo men are attending the university this session of which number '0 are from outside of Columbia. It doe's not seem that it should be necessary to build a $250,000 dormitory to accommodate theso 20 girls, especially during these hard'tiues, when most pressing needs have to be met at other state institu tions and iii other departments of the state government. We take it that the university would admit only thor otthly 9)rcpared students to its Fresh uau clatas:; The state high school ..1 .:s'tor reports that 533 South Caro lilt,: youing women graduated from the hih1 schuols of the state this year (1920). Are not the present 11 col leie('3 for women prepared to -take aise or these 533 young women who were prepared for college this year, and even many more than this num ber? Where in the necessity for hce Ipend'.itures at this time of financal stringency, of $250,000 for this dormi tory for 20 girls We take it that Co lumlbia does not :want the state to build a dormitory for the 50 Columbia girls attending the university from their homes in Columbia. Besides the state has made provision to accommo (late 150 mor South Carolina girls at the state college for women ('Vin throp c'Jlicge) next session. The high schools of the state will have to be very materially increased in number and ofciciency and a great n4ny more young women will have to be prcgared for college work by them be.:ore there can be any need whatever for additional provision for the higher" education of the young women of the state than is already made at the 11 colleges for women now in operation in South ;arolina. The accommoda tions and equipment of -these 11 col leges for women, already in existence, one of them being Winthrop college the state college for women, should be perfected before any other provislon for the higher educatioh of wonm is attempted. Is the woman's building at the uni ver:ity to compete with the Soutif Caro:fia state college for women at RCoclc 1liii? 'is it to duplicate the work of Winthrop college? That is a very imtant (luestion to be consid ( C'd in this connection. If so, will not that lead to conflict and confusion in thre state':, educational system? Win throp college was established by the state, when no other state college was C'en to) women for their higher cdu c:"tion as well as for their professional and practical training and its entrance r!1ii'C.ment. are the same as those of the rtate university and it gives a four ye:-r College course based upon such entrance requirements-the same as due, the university and awards the he green of A.Ii., B.S., and A..\., as are a warded by the 1iitrsity. It may be flhat Winthrop with its uniform, its cooking, sowing and gradening, etc., is teo democratic for some peoplhe, but they shou1ld wait until times are bet ter before trying to have the state en tablislh another college for women for themi., Have not dlormitories for woemen been tried at -the university In the past without. success, The followving advertisemnent appeared. ini the piapers of hestgoduring the summer~ of Opportunities for Women. a.

This modhern dormitory with steam heat, hot. and cold1 water, in charge of a competent matron advertised as above, was usned by only a few young women and~ was abandoned after one year's trial. 'is there any excuse or justiilhcation now in the light of this experience so recently tried (during 1918'1919, ifi asking the state to ap propriate $250,000 to build a dlormitory for women at the university? Is there any significance in the fact that more. youfng wvomlen are now attendhing that university from outside of Columbia tharn when t dormitories for women were pirovided at t-he university This is no time for doubtful and extravagant experiment. WVe believe that there shonld be as little' dupliea.. t!o". as possiblo0 in our educatina system, for economy and' for 'peace and harmony and elliciency. There are no special buildings for women at the universities of Virginia, North Carolina. and Florida. The fact is, at a recent ueDate on the question by the literary societies of the Univer sity of North Carolina, the vote of tho students was against eretcing such a building, their main argument being that the state had made provision for the eduaeation of - the women of the state at its state college for women at Greensboro. We believe that the state should concentrate at present upon its state college for women and perfect that before trying an extravagant experi ment in woman's education elsewhere and ;we believe that the great mass of democratic women of the state believe 'the same thing if we are to judge from the following resolution just adopted y the state convention of th' I). A. R.'s mceting in this city and by other bodies of women all over the state: "Resolved, That we urge the legisla ture of South Carolina to perfect Win throp college, the South Carolina col lcge for women, through which was seOcred the first appropriation by the :sate for teaching, ror business, for home making, and for the duties of life, by providing the needed additions to the college plant in the way of a teacher's home; a dormitory for coun try girls, in connection with ftie train ing school, in order that these girls, now deprived of the opportulity of be ing prepared for college, may have such an opportunity; professors' homes; a building for music and fine arth, and any other additions that the board of trustees may find necessary for the development of the institution to meet the needs of the poeple of thi state." It seem: that there is no excuse for hurtful and ,wasteful duplication by South Carolina in the higher educa ticn of the women of the state.
