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

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.

TRADF SCHOOL A It SS SKF.nF.D
Drfeete la Ike Preet Rdaeatlnaal
Rrstrra.
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

secrets have been unlocked regarding the

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.

tions eliminated the Insects from the orch

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

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

achievement somewhat unexpected, but one
which gives hope th'at when the boys have

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.

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.' "

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

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.

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.

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. The
recent movement among a numoer oi our
higher institutions of learning to provide
university bualness training Is In response
to this criticism, and follows demonstrated
success In similar lines in Oerraan schools.

An All-Ronnd Book.
The book agent had spent a discouraging
morning In St. Louis and when be had an
opportunity to scan the face of Ell Hoba at
close range he felt, that there waa a small
chance of making a sale. However, he had
more than one method of auggeatlon.
"Sitting out there on the place after
noon with your wife thla would be the
very book to read aloud," he aald. Ingra
tiatingly, to Mr. Hoba, taking the other
rocking chair and opening the large red
covered volume.
"I don't read and haven't any wife,"
replied Mr. Hoba, dryly.
"Dear me," aald the book agent. "Well, If
your wife la dead, perhapa there are chil
dren. Now, children find this book"
"There are no children," Interrupted Mr.
Hoba. "There'e nobody but myself and my
