OF eleven boys who enter college this
this year from St. Johnsbury, three go to
Dartmouth, three to Cornell, two to AM
hcrst, one to Bowdon, and two undecided
one. These nine boys who go abroad could
get just as good an education at Vermont
colleges, thereby helping to maintain home
institutions. We suppose these young
men seen seek the colleges of other States
because it is fashionable to get foreign
education. Vermont or its institutions
cannot expect to prosper so long as its
boys are sent away to be educated where
they can procure just as good training with
in its borders. We hope the two undecided
boys will patronize Vermont college, and
we shall be willing, everything else being
equal, to make just comparison of their
training and education with the other nine,
four years hence.
