SENSIBLE COLLEGE BOYS

SENSIBLE COLLEGE BoYs.-That is
a manly and sensible course taken by
the half dozen young collegians who
have gone into the machine shops at
Aurora to learn the trade of the ma
chinist. 1t is a great pity that there
are not more young men like them.
There seems to be a feeling in colleg-
es and universities, and it is growing
stronger every day. that there are only
three venues open to graduates
journalism, medicine or the law, ever
though it is repeated day afle day
that these professions are more than
over crowded and that the men of
real ability in each Of them are often
forced to the wall through an unex-
plainable force of circumstances. The
young men who have gone to Aurora
show their good common sense in re-
alizing this, and they deserve credit
for breaking through the crust of
false pride that has SO long covered
every college in the country. If some
of the energy expended in college base
ball were used in running a lathe, the
country would be better off.
