NEED FOR, INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS Importance of Agricultural C'nlleerea Tread of IglMl Work -Kda- ratlonnl Aetlvllee la Va rtoas Directions. The1 student who burns the midnight oil lights the way to the head of his chosen profession. The reason Is obvi ous. Work spells success, and success In any sphere of activity cannot Ue wou without work. President Hedley of Vale university, referring to certain phases of college life, says the curse of the col leges are the idle rich and tee Idle poor. Between these two clssses He the great body of energetic, ambitious young men, the coming generation of brainy workers destined to take on their shoulders the responsibilities of tomorrow. In this class are to be found many who are poor In purse, but rich In grit and cettherea tlveness. Ambition which balks at no obstacle In the path to a college education Is an asset worthy of the special con sideration It receives from college fac ulties. To these experienced observers of student life the spirit animating one obliged to work and earn his education insures diligence, regularity and persever ance. For him there is no time to waste. Head and hand must co-operate in utilising every hour. Many colleges put forth special efforts to encourage and lend assistance to en terprising students working their way through college. Yale has a department devoted to that purpose, and Its report on the methods employed and their suc cess Is a tribute to the hustling qualities of brainy young America. Of the entire number of Tale students, an average of 200 earn their entire ex penses, while 200 more are partially de pendent upon their efforts. The depart ment of self-help awards tuition scholar ships to needy and worthy young men. and a student of the first rank who de pends upon himself may get a scholar ship equivalent to 8166, the entire annual charge for tuition. A less needy and less brilliant student may get one amounting to 8115, while those still less dependant receive scholar ships equal to 876. This bureau alma to find work for men and find men for work. From the bureau, cards, circulurs, postals and letters are sent out, and it la generally understood that from this institution ean be obtained men of the highest character and ability for almost any kind ot work requiring two to three hours a day. Clerical work must be done In many de partments of the college; this Is given to students. 'Many wait on the tables, and an average number of 160 earn their meals by this service.- One student may conduct a small laundry business. Many, Indeed, go out and earn money on their own Initiative without the asslstsnce of the bureau. Dur ing the fall one will find students selling statuary, pictures and bric-a-brac to more prosperous students: some act as clothing agents; others solicit for various industries. A number work In the smaller clubs, wait on tables and render service; In one year. It waa reported, sixty-two men earned 88,237 in thla way. Then, too, many atudents organise cluba of boarders for boarding houses and by securing ten boarders get their own board free. More money la earned by tutoring, how ever, than In any other way. The compen sation. Averages . from 61 t $3.aa hour. Within one year aeventy-one men earned S8.G6 In thla way. Yearly, It la said, more than 810,000 la earned by tutoring at Yale. Some make a good Income by selling flow ers when there are celebrations. Others T,rimrm m m anm nrenara for athletic contests and police the field. A number da ! typewriting for other students. Some can vasa for magazines. At Christmas time many college students work In department' stores. During the summer vacation they can work on farms In stores and factories and rave from 8-00 to 8400 for their college term. It Is said that the eelf-aupporting students of Yale probably earn each year from 850,000 to 840,000. When ha was aecretary of Harvard, the late Frank Bollea, telling of how students earned their way, spoke of a student who came to college $116 In debt. During his first year he earned S34U and expended 8381.81; the second year, earned (3(6.68 and expended 81.64; third year, earned 8889.53 and expended 8395.14, and fourth year. earned 8L021.il, spending 4G2.. He waa a diligent, ambitious, energetic young man. And diligence, energy and am bition will carry any man through college. He performed whatever tasks were offered, one of his specialties being to secure brains from sheeps' skulls for Prof. William James to- be used in experiments. He also engaged in publishing books and college pamphlets. None of theae retorda follow the students' career beyond the college doors. This Is regretable because the completed example of applied energy would undoubtedly show that the habits which ambition prompted ; food, water brash. Nausea, Headache, Bil iousness and many other bad symptoms; and, besides, you will not need laxatives to keep your stomach and lnteatlnea clean and fresh. If your stomach la aour or your food doean't dlgeat, and your meals don't tempt you, why not get a 60-cent case today from your druggist and make life worth living? Abaolute relief from Stom ach misery and perfect digestion of any thing you eat is sure to follow five min utes after, and, besides, one case Is often sufficient to cure a whole family of such trouble. Surely, a harmless, inexpensive prep aration like Dlapepsln, which will always, either at daytime or during the night, relieve your stomach misery and digest your meals. Is about aa handy and valu able a thing aa you could have In the houae. 1 v v vi j, . A. &t:. It's worth a goad deal to get genuine Sundgren'a But tercup Bread.

At the annual convocation of the uni versity of the state of New Ttrk. held October 81, Dr. Edward J. Goodwin, presi dent of Packer Institute, rirroklyn. em phasised the need for trades and industrial schools and courses. He said. In port: A second system of education for th.3 I'nKed States Is yet to be worked out Whon completed It must provide for both character development and adequate equip ment for the battle of life. In recent times the American school haa not kept pace with national progress In production and methods of doing business. The majority of children need a different training In the puollc schools frcnt thnt which has been !n vogue. Both the scccnduiy and the elementary schools sre seriously defective In the matter of adjustment to pr"'" conditions. While there has been sonu broadening of the scope and improvement of the quality of Instruction, educators still largely Ignore the Interests of that great and growing class of boys who are to be wage earners, artisans and trades men. The Indictment against our present scheme of elementary Instruction Is that It overburdens the memory with uninter- esting and useless material. Something must be done to Induce these pupils to stay In school and finish courses that will prepare them to perform well their parts In ther practical affairs of life. The con ception of trades schools. Industrial and business courses, Is the only thing that will do this. There are two great reasons for the establishment of trade and Industrial schools and courses. The first Is the good of the youth themselves, the second Is the welfare of the nation In the upbuilding of Its Industries. The system of appren ticeship has disappeared, and, somehow,' the public school must be made to take Its place. We are gradually coming to recog-. nise the Injustice of organizing our high schools In the Interest's of the few alono who are able to command a liberal cr semi liberal education. The demand for some special training for the vocations Is based upon the Impulse to rescue unfortunate boys from social submersion, and to afford every wllllnaj worker a fair opportunity for self-support. What are our high schools doing today to meet the growing demand for skilled workers of all sorts? Practically nothing. They contribute In New York state, for example, less than 2 per cent of the men who yearly enter the so-called "unlearned" professions. There is need of skilled labor In the development of the country's re sources. The time for system and science In business la here. We must meet It or suffer disastrous consequences. MINNESOTA'S EXAMPLE Hove the Agrlealtaral College Haa "Mad Good." Agricultural colleges generally had their beginnings In the bill Introduced by Sen. ator Morrill of Vermont, In 1862, which some ttlme later was enacted Into law, providing that lands be set aalde by the government aa they had been for the con- atructlon of the Pacific railroads, from the proceeds o the sale of which schools should be established for agricultural In atructlon. It Is Interesting to note, says a writer In Harper's Weekly, that In this same year, when most of the white men folk were away on southern battlefields, the Sioux Indians of the state of Minne sota uprose and massacred some 800 of the frontier settlers, and In the white man's reprisal thirty-eight of the leaders were hanged on a single scaffold In the town of Mankato. So . It may readily be believed farming at' that time had not been re duced to pedagoglo form, and little waa done In any of the states for years except to provide a few lectures on bucolic sub jects, for the purpose of hanging on to the appropriation. When at last President Farwell organised a real course of instruc tlon. according to the lights of the time. It was Impossible to secure any student to pursue It, even by dint of bribery, which the worthy praeses Industriously tried. Book farming was scouted and ridiculed by every old-fashioned or "practical" rarmer. as It Is In the ' 'way back" dis tricts In many states even to this day. If a boy wanted to be a lawyer or a doctor, or even a parson, there waa aome excuse for (hla waatlng time In atudying books, but rarmln was "farmln'," and It wasn't to be learned In a school. Times have changed since then. The teachers them seivea nave learned aomethlng. Many secrets have been unlocked regarding the chemistry of soils aa determining their treatment and the crops they will grow. tne scientific crossing of breeds of plants, as well as animals, the improvement of seeds by the selection of exemplary single heada from a plot where each straw Is numbered, over a period of ten or a dosen years. One such process as this added 12H per cent to the hard dollars In the, pockets of the farmers who planted one such va riety produced In the Minnesota station. Spraying with mysterious college concoc tions eliminated the Insects from the orch arda and doubled the value of apples In ma rruit market. RESEARCH CHEMISTRY Modern Apvarataa Installed at Uni versity of Illaols. American universities are recognizing as imvrr oniore tne economic value of nmc tlcal work In research chemistry. This Is nownore more apparent than nt the Unl ver.i.y or Illinois at I'rbana. In the Inst three months the Institution has expended over 810.000 In Installing new and more modern apparatus for Its student. .H .i has equipped a new research laboratory In i.j.nm cnemistry. The addition to the depajment has been made with a toward Instituting experiments similar to v.. wen rniown coal tests In which Prof. ... r.rx determined th effects of weathering on the various kinds of minoi. and other coals, and the nutrition tests in vr- urlndley Investigated th- effects upon the human system of meats -.-. i.ao. oeen treated wtih ealtpetre.

Encouragement has come to the foot boll squad. For a raw team to hold the cham pions of the state to a score of 8 to 0 Is an achievement somewhat unexpected, but one which gives hope th'at when the boys have become mature players they will not be excelled by other teams. VNIVERRITV OF MIOtltI Progress of Work on the New Airi ealtaral Hall. The cornerstone of the new 8100.XiO Agri cultural hall, to be the handsomest build ing of the University of Missouri group at Columbia, was laid Monday morning with Masonlo rites, A. M. Dockery, former gov ernor of Missouri, acting as grand master. Among the speakers were B. H. Bonfoeyn of Unlonvllle, Mo., a curator of the uni versity; Norman J. Colman of St. Ixtuls, who was commissioner ot agriculture under President Cleveland; Dr. B. T. Galloway, an alumnua of the university, now chief of the division of vegetable pathology of the Department of Agriculture at Washington; Dr. A. Ross Hill, president of the Univer sity of Missouri; Dr. R. H. Jesse, former president, and Dean Henry J. Waters of the College of Agriculture. In a copper box sealed In the stone waa placed an ear of corn, ranked by the Col lege of Agriculture the nearest perfect of any eent In for thla purpose. The ear was raised by Alexander Maltland of 'Richmond, Mo. It is an almost perfect specimen of Raid's Yellow Dent and waa graded 9t per cent. Thirty eara were submitted In the contest from all parta of the state. Dr. Charles A. Kllwood, professor of sociology at the University of Missouri, In an address in Kansas City Thursday on Problema ot the American Home," de clared that If present tendencies continue, the American family and American civiliza tion will pasa away. Dr. Ellwood gave statistics to show that America leads all other countries In the proportion of divorces to marriages. He said that If the present ratio continues, one of every four mar riages will result in divorce by 1950. Dr. Kllwood urged as remedies legislation to make it more difficult to obtain a divorce, and education. The students of the University of Missouri from Oklahoma, about twenty-five In num ber, recently organised for the year. War ren H. Orr of Lawton waa elected presi dent. The object of the club Is to advertise the university In the new state. At the convention of the Missouri State Library association In Moberly H. O. Sev erance, librarian of the University of Mis souri, was elected president cf the nssocla- tion for the coming year. The next meet ing of the association will ba held In Co lumbia. In a religious census of the students of the University of Missouri taken recently It was found that -of the 2,000 students now In the departments of the university at Columbia 1,610 are church members. Thirty two denominations are represented and of these the Christian, Methodist and Baptist churches lead in meir.beiship in the order named. MOTHERS AND EDUCATION Trend of Education Since the Decline of th Three R'm." The whole trend of education changed when the "three R's" ceased to be Its war- cry, writes Myra, Kelly In Harper's Bazar and it behooves the modern mother to real ize this change and to adapt herself to It. For, the school and the home are but two agencies In the' training of the child, two powers which Should work together for good, and the ideal relation between the two Is that they-shotila be as fine. It was' very great Teache?'-who taught .that "no man can serve two masters." Then let the mother conform her rule and her Judgments to the laws of her sister kingdom. Let her hold, for Instance, that the prln clple of self-activity la stronger than blind obedience ever was; that emulation, as spur to effort. Is the .abomination of deso lation; that a sound mind in a sound body is more to be valued than riches; that keen eye for color and form, a steady hand to guide a pencil or a tool, a mind alert. eager and reasonable, a heart which feels lta brotherhood witn an living, growing things, a free, frank speech, a generous nature, and an honest tongue, are In them selves a Declaration of Independence and a Psalm of Life. There Is another class of parent from whom teachers suffer much. It generally has but one child, and that child Is gen erally a pitiful, conscientious, earnest little creature. In somber hair ribbons and Com fort shoes. Very frequently this parent has been. In aome prehistoric age, a teacher of mathematics in a high school. Now, a spiritualistic seance at which Messrs. Froeble, Peztolozzi, Herbart, Locke and Spencer should appear and explain their theories of education, and at which Prof. James should come from Harvard to pre side, while Prof. John Dewey looked In to make a few remarks, would never persuade that parent that her child's progress was not to be gauged by an ability to spell ob solete words and to worry her way to com plicated problems in long division. "Why. she a been to acnoai every aay for eeven mont'r.e; rain, nor enow, nor elect haa daunted her. She haa an umbrella, a mackintosh and a pair of rubbera. And yet with all these aids to education she cannot spell 'parallel.' " i COLORADO COLLEGE DedlceUok of New Residence Hall Far Yonng Women. On October SO Colorado college dedicated a new resiaence nm- ! --. of the Institution. This makes the fifth dormitory of this rapidly growing institu tion, which had this year an entering class of 197. The new building provides resi dence for ninety students, has a dining room which seata 300 and is well supplied with parlors and reception rooms, being planned In part to serve aa the social center of the Institution for both students and faculty. The equipment Is In every way thoroughly modern. The building Is the gift of friends of the college. . Boyle's College. The growth of the business college has been phenomenal. At the present time there are about 2,000 private commercial schools In this country, with a total enrollment of 250,000 students. This may look like an extravagant atatement, but it can ba veri fied. All of the colleges and universities combined cannot show us many atudents. Moreover, the teaching of business or of business courses has been taken up by many of the older Institutions hitherto de voting all energy to the sciences and class ics. Business is the "bread and butter science." Beginning this year the old and staid in stitutions of Yale and Harvard are starting business courses and a great lUt of sub jects la covered, including commerce, cor poration economic, problema in business management, trade statistics, forest man agement, business law, banking ai d lln. n :e, business organizations, etc. The first winter term of Boyles college Is announced to begin December 1. The college social, announced to be held In Boyles college Saturday evening, October 11. haa been postponed until next i'.iturday, November 7. Before the date had b'en an nounced ao many atudents had male other arrangements for Hallowe'en festivities that a postponement waa necessary. Many former students and graduates were also Interested In securing r more sultsble date. Boyles college graduates are scattered far and wide and good reports come from some of them. One young man graduated from Boylea waa offered several good poal- tlone. but finally want Into a lumber office as atenographer, learned alt he could and then went Into an architect's office. Then he went west and la now a partner In a building and contracting firm at Portland, Ore. Another graduate, a young woman, is now visiting friends In Omaha, who has been for ten years in the famous Broadway office of the Standard Oil company, where she Is doing stenographic work at a salary of 8150 per month. TABOR COLLEGE CONFERENCE Ednratora Friendly tn Inatltatlon Consider Plana for School. An educational conference of the pastors of the Congregational churches of western Iowa waa held here last week. The aim of thla conference waa to bring the pastors Into touch with Tabor college and awake a more lively Interest In some of its prob lems. Back In the early '80s the board of trustees resolved "That Tabor college Is, has been and forever shall be. under the control of Trinitarian Congregatlonallsta," and In order to make the resolution un alterable they added "that thla resolution shall not be amended or retracted." The college haa always continued faithful to this pledge In spite of all pressure brought to the contrary, and thla conference la bound more firmly to cement the unity of feeling and make friends for It In the sur rounding territory. No other college In the state has the field which Tabor has, Twelve hundred square mllea of territory without another atandard college. This 1,200 square miles extends 100 miles east and north of Tabor, and the lines could go fifty miles Into Nebraska and 100 miles Into Missouri before striking another Con gregational school Thla great territory haa been pre-empted and held for Tabor col lege through fifty years 'of lta existence. About a dozen other colleges have started In thla portion of Iowa, but with the ex ception of Amity college Tabor Is the only one that has survived. The college and community are united as never before and a most friendly feel ing exists between the other church organ izational The Methodists of Tabor -are building an elegant 85,000 church edifice and Tabor college haa ahown a friendly spirit by donating several scholarships, the proceeds from the sale of which will be of material aid In the good work. The new Methodist Episcopal pastor, Rev. J. R. Ramsey, has shown a fine spirit of help fulness and co-operation with the college, that la being appreciated and reciprocated. Dr. John P. D. John la delivering a course of scholarly lectures here thla week that by courtesy of the college are made free to all. Normal Notes. The senior class at a meeting today added to the members of the Peruvian staff an art editor. Miss Ethel William of Peru and an alumni editor, Mr. Bert 8wenson of Shkkley. Mr. Swenson will secure the co- operation of the presidents of the previous classes In endeavoring to make this depart ment better than ever before. Mr. C. O. OUne, president of the class of 1S06; Mr. Woodsrd, president of the class of 1907, and Mr. Clifford Hendricks, president of the class of 1908, are already working with him. The members of the Peru Normal Alumni association are plying their hand at writ ing a poem on the aubject, "Painting Old Peru." Among the first to succeed la Hon. T. W. Blackburn of Omaha. The little daughter of Prof. Bengston of the State university, formerly of the Peru Bta'te Normal, while visiting, In company with her mother, at David City, recently, had one of her eyes badly Injured. She has been taken to St. Joseph's hospital at Omaha and placed under the care of Dr. Clifford, who says that he haa no hope of saving the eye. The students and faculty of the Normal express their .extreme sym pathy with Mr. Bengston and family In the grief that has come upon them. Aa the time for the State Teachers' asso ciation draws nearer the greater becomes the enthusiasm ot the students here are gardtng it. It la now thought that much larger numbers than had been expected will attend. The senior, junior and trainer classes have voted resolutions urging their members to attend. Ednentlonnl Notes. Miss Jane Brownlee recently spoke to 1.500 teachers In Cincinnati and to 800 In Columbus, O., on the ethical training of children. For several months she has been kept busy addressing teachers Institutions, and It seems significant that many pro grams at such meetings have recently dealt almost exclusively with character building in the schools. Mrs. Marv E. Emery haa given 8500.000 to tha Mechanics" Institute of Cincinnati, In memorv of her husband. The building to be erected with the money will be for edu cational purposes and will very mucn aa vance the work of the school. There will be a museum and rooms for exhibits end the hall will be the center of Interest In the concert season In Cincinnati. In h otramlnatlon that disclosed that 5,000 Chicago children were going to school hungry, ana tnai iu.iw omera vb ui sufficient food, it was brought out that a large proportion of these pupils are In the lowest grade. This may be due partly to the fact that children from needy families may be taken out of school early and put to n ,iiia nf child labor laws. But the Chicago Investigators report that In general their experience has shown backwardness In study to be due In large part to lack of proper food. Ut more man i, ui;u cc examined, for Instance, 56 per cent were the result of mal-nutrltlon. At the recent meeting of the American Street and Interurban Hallways associa tion at Atlantic City veteran managers de dured that the average college graduate, immediately after he leaves his alma mater. is "almost useless ana nopeiess, i ieai two years being required to fit him for positions of responsibility. This sweeping criticism of college training crops out so often in the conventions of business men that it must have aome basis in fact.
