He engaged as teachers young women who had studied a year or two in a female seminary; and because female seminaries were rare in those days, women teachers with up-to-date training were hard to find. Only a few visionaries believed in the education of women. Nearby Emma Willard's recently established Troy Female Seminary was being watched with interest and suspicion.
Fyshe, "and of course your land was more desirable from every point of view. Schwefeldampf's ground is encumbered with a growth of cypress and evergreens and weeping willows which make it quite unsuitable for an up-to-date cemetery; whereas yours, as I remember it, is bright and open a loose sandy soil with no trees and very little grass to overcome." "Yes," said Mr. Furlong.
"At least that avenges me for the cowardice that the other forced me to commit!" Then mechanically regarding the crowd that flowed through these docks, that contained everything that could please or disgust a whole world at once, the crowd, the clerks, the carpets, the linen, the crowding, the heaping, all seemed strange and comic to her, novel and not Parisian, but American and up-to-date.
Even if they are not doing a great deal, they should at least say, even in the dullest of times, that business might be a 'lot worse. It's these croakers on the road who really make business dull when there is every reason for it to be good. I never kick and I don't think any up-to-date man will.
Here I am, sitting at a little oak table where in old times possibly some fair lady sat to pen, with much thought and many blushes, her ill-spelt love letter, and writing in my diary in shorthand all that has happened since I closed it last. It is the nineteenth century up-to-date with a vengeance.

Among the up-to-date people of the new generation, the religious beliefs of a very large proportion have become so confused and unsettled by it, that they are no longer quite sure in their own hearts whether they have any at all.
These defences were absolutely up-to-date in every respect. They were connected by telegraph and telephone, and it could with truth be said that as far as Sheria the Turkish front was one continuous tangle of wire. Beersheba itself was in a measure isolated from the rest of the line.
She is exceedingly chic and up-to-date as to costumes, and is of vivacious and charming manner." "Humph!" sniffed Miss Rhoda, "an actress?" "Not at all! Victoria Van Allen is a well-bred lady if there ever was one." "You are a staunch friend, Mr. Calhoun," and Mrs. Schuyler looked her surprise.
I can make it in that." "But how? You can't boil it without the lamp." "Can't I? Just you watch me do it." Aileen was resourceful. In a few minutes she had the mixture in her pail, and the pail swinging by a string over the gas jet. Leslie Manor was quite up-to-date. It had gas as well as electricity, though gas was not supposed to be used excepting in cases of emergency.
"Which of the models would your Majesty like to see destroyed first?" The Kaiser pointed to the model of a battleship which was a very good imitation of one of the most up-to-date British battleships. "We will take that one first," he said. Castellan smiled, and began to play the keys.
