Statistics of American colleges go to show that tha youth of tha present day la more highly developed physically than those of a half or even a quarter of a century ago. The boys entering colleges average taller and heavier and In better general health. The girls have greater height, weight and chest girth, figures for the last eight years from Smith. Wellealey, Oberlln, Mount Holyoke and Chicago all show this physical superiority of the girl student of the present day. Amherst figures are typi cal of the men's colleges. These show that the 1,103 boys entering show increased measurements over former years, In spite of the fact that the average age has decreased. The tendency Is to attribute this to the general Indulgence In athletics of, the youth of the country, even down to the grammar grades, but Improvement In general condi tions of - living and hygiene must also be given consideration. Another fact Is notice able, that the average health of graduates Is better than that of matriculants, ahowlr-g Improvement during attendance at college, Instead of the ruined health so often the result of college life In former years. GOES THROUGH A MOIXTAI.X, Colorado School Teacher's Host on Stormr Dim, There Is one school teacher In Colorado who on stormy days makes tha trip through a mountain, traveling nearly four miles underground before she reaches her school. The school which this teacher teaches Is on top of a mountain near Idaho Springs, Colo. Idaho Springs Is a bustling place for that part of the world, but around It on all sides are the Rocky Mountains and many wild places. The school law of the state prescribes that wherever there are ten children there must be some sort of school. Up on top of this mountain a little settlement of miners has grown up, Ollson's Gulch. Tha mountain underneath It is honey combed with mines. To tap these mines there was driven what Is known as the Newhouse tunnel. It runs into the base of the mountain nearly four miles, is wide enough for two tracks for electrically pro pelled tram cars and carries the ore and the miners working In the various mines In tho mountain. It Is a six mile ride on horseback from the town of Idaho Springs, where the teacher of the school lives, up to the top of the mountain where her school ls. It isn't a bad ride in nice weather for a Col orado girl used to the saddle, but it's tough In winter. 8lnce the opening of the tunnel the teacher gets Into one of the little ore cars at the foot, of the mountain whenever the weather Is bad. The ore train takes her Into the mountain about three miles. Then she gets out at one of the mines, and there transfers to a bucket and la hoisted up a shaft 2,100 feet. When she gets out of the shaft she Is on top of the mountain, feety feet from her school house. It takes her about an hour to make the trip. The school has fourteen pupils and they never know whether their teacher Is coming up from the bowels of the earth or over the mountain. DRAG IX riDLIC SCHOOL.

Our chief criticism in that In so many cases no provision is made for promoting the bright children more rapidly. They are held back In a lock-step with the rest. The boy who oan easily complete the program for three years In two or two and a half, and who would profit largely by moving ahead quickly, is not allowed to break the ranks. He is under no stimulus to exert himself and do his best. As i result, he d twdles and forms thoroughly bad habits of ap plication, habits which may cling to him and clog him through lift," GERMAN TRADE SCHOOLS. Snrprlalna; Fealare of the Empire's Edacatlonal System. Those who a re active In the movement for trade schooling may study with ad vantage some of the.. Oerman methods of dealing with the mstter. The sentiment of the need and value of thorough trade training Is In the Oerman people and finds expression In the action of all the public authorities, state, municipal and Imperial. An institution existing In Alsace-Lorraine Is an example. It Is described In a recent report of Consul William J. Pike of Kehl. In addition to the excellent trade schools and the requirement of long apprentice ships, courses have been established for the Instruction of "master workmen." These embrace a great variety of trades tailors, bookbinders, painters, housesmiths, plumb ers, tinners, . carpenters, cabinetmakers, potters, paperhangers, and even the appar ently modest trade of well-diggers. To gain the advantages of these courses, appli cants must have had a certain experience and must give proofs of a certain degree of skill and aptitude. After admission they receive practical and theoretic Instruction and training not only in the actual exer cise of their craft according to the most approved methods, but also 1n the nature and cost of materials. In tha principles of cognate occupations, in estimating and de signing, or In the aesthetic relations of their work. Housesmiths and Rlumbers, for example, are Instructed in the use of elec tricity and gas for lighting, in the art of wiring, In the requirements of sanitation, tto. Tailors are taught the invention of patterns, the relations ? colors, the quali ties of fabrics. When the courses sre com pleted the student receives the right to uso the title of "Melster," and that carries with It a guarantee of efficiency authorita tively Issued. HARVARD'S FOREST SCHOOL. New Department 4e Be Opened This Antnmn. A large ant) unspoiled natural forest with varied fauna and flora, streams, ponds, hills, plains and valleys, where stu dents of forestry may live . and in the course of their studies take part in tht culture and commercial administration of the tract, is what Harvard will offer to its students of forestry as soon after the opening of the next college year aa they have had time to gain In the class room a few essential preliminaries of their work. From about , October until well into De cember and again In the spring for two months the classes In the forestry depart ment will live tn-ttta forest of Petersham, a large tract of flae natural woodland situated In one of the most delightful regions of western Massachusetts. The village of Petersham, near which Ilea Harvard's new forest tract, Is remote from the din of the world and reached by an old stage line running from a distant rail way station. The forest lies within an Irregular quadrilateral bounded by four railway lines, no one of which Is at any point as near aa five miles. The nearest railway station Is six miles distant. For three miles along the valley of the Swift river and on both sides of the stream extends the forest. It Includes what Is believed to be the finest body of timber occupying an equal area anywhere in Massachusetts. Upon the land is now stand ing between 10,000,000 and 11,000,000 board feet of marketable timber, nearly nine tenths of which Is white pine, an article nowadays sufficiently rare In the southern New England states. Some of the pines are four feet In dlam etcr and many are from two to three and a half feet in diameter and of noble height It happens fortunately that pines of like age, from the tiny sapling to the huge tree ripe for marketing, are almoat equally rep resented on separate areas, so thst the trait Is almoat Ideally fitted for profitable lumbering, for practical forestry and for the Instruction of students. Besides the white pines, which will fur nish the bulk of the marketable crop for some years to come, there are oaks, mostly red oaks, beeches, birches, chestnuts and other deciduous trees and a great variety of native forest plants. At the same time wild fruits, strawberries, raspberries, black berries, blueberries and the like, are abun dant In the thickets or the bits of recently felled land. In fact the forest Is an epitome of the local flora. In entering upon possession of the forests for the purposes of cultivation. Instruction and administration the forestry department of the university finds ready at hand on the edge of the tract a building suitable for dormitories, classrooms, laboratories and library. This house, originally built and occupied by a religious community, affords twenty bedrooms, and the chapel makes an amply large dining room and living room. The teaching force on tha ground will be, Richard Thornton Plaher, assistant profes sor of forestry; Austin Cary, assistant pro fessor of forestry; Edward Charles Jeffry, professor of vegetable histology; John George Jack, Instructor In forest botany, and Benton MacKaye, Instructor in for eotry. During the period of study not di rectly upan the ground the students will at tend the lectures and tha laboratories of many other professors and Instructors. Harvard came Into possession of the for est at Petersham about a year ago. It had been owned and administered by James W. Brooks, who, feeling that It should be pre served as a model forest, offered it to Har vard at much below its estimated selling value. He also Joined with some of the neighboring landowners In securing for Harvard as gifts between 200 and 300 acres of adjacent land. These gifts were contingent upon the acquisition by the university of the main forest tract, and John B. Ames, a Harvard graduate of 1901, gave the purchase money for the land and 16,000 In addition for equip ment and repairs. What the university thus obtains Is a glorious bit of native wilderness, fended by its remoteness from the intrusion of the outside world, but traversed by fifteen miles of serviceable roads and supplying every essential need of the forestry department park, commercial forest, hunting preserve and adult kinder garten In one.
