Th vacation period of the schools brings horns to parents and guardians tin problem of advunccd du ation of graduates of the grade and high schools. It Is a time to weigh well what school Is best . fitted to tritin the Htudent along the lines desired, Whether such lines be one of the mmi)' professions, or a thorough grounding in the. fundamentals of a general education. It is generally concrded that if the mind of tho youth Is trained in th right direc tion the hHUila will remain throughout life and the boy or girl who has been taught to think, to reason and tin; power of appli cation which comes with study, must be better equipped to enter as man and woman Into the work, duties and responsi bilities of life. The proper school then becomes the most serious question for the thinking parents, for the teachers' Influence, the environ ments, the moral and Intellectual standards maintained by the school, are all Influential In the making of the character and future, career of the youth of today. A system of education high In standard and thorough In Its processes Is now de manded of every school whether large, or small. To meet this constantly growing demand schools and colleges have been more widely established than ever before, and especially Is this growth remarkable; In the great middle west and northwest, which, yet comparatively new to civilisa tion, have developed a remarkable apprecia tion and an ambition for education in Its various phases. The numerous schools which have sprung up all over tho country, beginning with tlin most modern educational thought and system, and maintaining the highest stand ards, have already become wide-spreading Influences. With the various schools provided, and their general worth established, the chief consideration is to select the school best adapted to tho natural bent of the student and which will develop to the fullest degree his mental and moral powers. The Bee, In maintaining Its school and college Information bureau, aims to be helpful to both parents and schools by bringing them In closer touch and giving any Information the parents may desire to know of the various schools and col leges, the curriculum, tho advantages, and any other data. MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY. Projected Improvements and Statis tical Information. The courses of instruction in language and literature offered by the department of literature, science and the arts will be enriched aext year by the addition of a cours" In elementary Russian. The class will be conducted by Assistant Prof. Meador. Tha university will offer instruction In the following languages next year: Anglo Saxon (Old English). Arabic. Aramaic, As syrian, English, Ethioplc, French Oreek, (ancient Greek, Hellinlstic Greek and mod ern Greek), Hebrew, Old Icelandic. Italian I.atln, Norwegian, Oscun and Umbrlan. Provencal, Russian, Sanskrit, Spanish and Syrlac. There are also courses In the gen eral science of languagea and In Indo-European comparative philology. Recent statistics regarding the 1WV? sum mer session showed that In the attendance which numhered 1,084 students, thirty-nine stales and sixteen countries wero repre fented. Of the total number of students, however, 68 per cent were from Michigan. Of the students In the literary department, GO per cent were teachers, and In the medi cal department, 41 per cent were college graduates and 14 per cent practicing phy sicians. The total number of college gradu ates In attendance waa 231. or 22 per cent of the entire enrollment. Eighty colleges and universities were represented. The church attendance of students in the university wa made the subject of statis tical Investigation Sunday, March 8. The result, aa given in the Michigan Daily,, the student paper, showed that tho total num ber of students at five churches alone was t02. 26 per cent of the total attendance at the churches, and 13 per cent of the total student body, while the number of town peo ple In attendance was but 17 per cent of the whole population of. Ann Arbor. The churches which furnished the figures were the Catholic, St. Andrew's Episcopal, the Congregational, the First Methodist Episco pal and the Christian Science church. At least a0 students were In attendance at the three morning services at the Cuthollc church, the total student attendance at St. Andrew's Episcopal was VA whlje 375 were In attendance at the Congregational church; 151 Btudents were In attendance at the Methodist .church, while ten were present at the Christian Science. Had the other churche in Ann Arbor been included the per rentage would have undoubtedly been materially Increased. The first cIhss in engineering at the Uni versity of Michigan to graduate, that of 1S(A had two members; the class of 1907 numbered over 150. HARDIN COLLEGE, MEXICO, MO.

The American Ethical union will hold its annual sessions In connection with the summer school of the University of WIs cousln, at Madison, beginning July i. Heretofore, the school has had three de partmentsethics, history of religion and political economy. The director of these departments have been Profs. Felix Adler of New York, C. 11. Toy of Harvard and H. C. Adams of Michigan. Ita faculty of lecturers has Included the most eminent thinkers and leaders of the day. and has contributed much toward conscious Con struction efforts In the solution of the most vital problems confronting American civil nation. Clergymen, teachers, social settlement Workers, charity organisation workers, have attended its session In large numbers. The movement has rendered valuable service to t lie school, the Sunday school, to social Institutions and the church. This year's meeting In Madlaon will con fine Its lecture curriculum to the problems of general and special moral training, and lo the ethical movement. The broader and more extended lecture course In general education, philosophy, ethics, economy,' sociology, political science, and history may be taken In the university summer session.

Further more, they may Come not alone for acade mic discnurses and library researches, but also to observe and study the actual work ings of some of the advanced state Institu tions of the present time, which are now dealing with some of therfr rffrfrfrrfrr dealing first hand with some of the most fundamental problem that confront the American people. The ethical movement is a synthetic and constructive movement towards betterment, Individual and social. It can co-operate with all existing agencies at work for good. In tho language of one of the foremost leaders, its purpose Is well expressed: "We are not called upon to defend the ism, atheism, or agnosticism. It Is moral agreement we are after, not religious agree ment or antl-rellgloua agreement. For us the one supreme aim la lifting human life to higher spiritual levels." A SCHOOL IX A FOREST.

He said Lord Bacon's division of time Into one-third for sleep, one-third for recreation and prayers and one-third for work was observed at college, except that the one-third for work was given up largely to athletics, college societies, col lege politics and Just enough study to keep the name of the student on the college rolls. He declared he was not accusing American unlveraltlea of encouraging Idle ness, dissipation and frivolity, but that even colleges of great repute were not succeeding In preparing men to study the profession.

At the recent Des Moines music festival. In which the Thomas orchestra was the chief feature. Mr. Sidney Sllber was the piaqo soloist. The Western Musical Herald speaks of him as follows: "Sidney Silber. the solo pianist of the first evening, scored a veritable triumph In the Beethoven Cboral-Fantasia, written for piano, orchestra, solo and mixed chorus. He was recalled repeatedly In answer to deafening applause, and finally repealed the choral portion of the very unique and Inter esting work." The announcement that Mr. Sidney Sllber. the well known pianist whom Des Moines has been pleased to claim during the last year, is to leave the city, has been re ceived with universal regret. Mr. Silber has been, during the last year, head of tho piano department of the Des Moines Musical college and has won the highest recognition as a pianist, musician and man. Mr. Silber has been very successful In his position here, but has accepted a position at the head of the piano department of the University School of Music.

THE MAKING OF fiji WEST Pioneer Hardships from Which Sprl" Western Greatness and ' Power. I recall one woman I met In a little gravel-roof log-house-In the drv hills of Idhho. eighty miles Xrom the" railroad. She had a singularly attractive face, and her home, though poor, was as neat a a pin. She probably did not ree a visitor once a week, and during the day, wliih the men were at work, she was entirely nlone except for her two small children I asked her if she did not ,grow lonely. "Oh, no." she replied; "there are the Petersts over there" a speck on the face-covered hills-"and the Warrens over there" and she shaded her ey?s. and looked off across the sun-blindiny r'.aln to another speck on the hoiiznn "and nearly every day some team paaaos on the way to the Basin." The nearest school waa twenty-six miles away, so she nad to teach hor own children; the nearest doctor was eighty miles. She told me with a catch In her voice how one of her children, a little girl, had been down with scarlet fever the winter before. The snow lay deep on the hills, so that even the mail-carrier, who usually came through twice a w-eek, could not break a road. Her hus band, however, saddled his norse aqd started, leaving her alone with the child. He was gone four days, and when he came hack, half-dead with fatigue, hav ing walked the last twenty-five miles, for his horse was utterly worn out, he brought only the word that the doctor would not come. And so they watched at the baby's bed until the little thing was out of danger. It la difficult for people In an old, set tled country to realize what pioneering In the west, even today, really means. For though the country Is rapidly settl ing up, the distances are enormous, the icada often rough, and communication with the outside world Is uncertain. Some of the counties of the northwest are as large a the smaller eastern state. From a place where I once stepped tn Wyom ing it required five day' hard traveling to reach the county seat, a distance, by the only road, of over 150 miles. I wa told of a sheriff In Harney county, Oregon, who traveled ITU miles to summon a Juror. One can Imagine the cost of litigation under uch conditions, and the temptation to resort to the easy and apeedy court of the fclx-shooter. But It Is by these hardships of the trail and of the pioneer home that the west is coming to greatness and power. The floater Is one of the most evident signs, himself somewhat of a failure, of the In vading army of civilisation. He la the spume which the inundating wave of hu manity throws up; the wave itelf will soon lie deep and lasting over all the meet. Roy Stannard Baker In the Century. Animal that Earn Their Living;.
