Thero nro thirty of them In nil, mostly In tho west, nnd I am golig to look them all over next year nnd mnko up my mind. Tho colleges that havo dono well and used the endowment in tho right way will get all of tho money." Somo of tho fortunate colleges Dr. Pear sons has already decided upon. He did not say so directly, but his pralsa of several colleges and universities left no doubts ot his lntontlons toward them. 'Heal gems," Is what ho calls them.
