from SCribner 8.
The usefulness of travel for rightly
trained and constituted lads is so generally
recognized that IL is not at all unusual for
parents who wish to give their sons every
chance possible to increase I'm wisdom to
offer them the choice between spending
several years in Europe or going to col
lege at home. Each of us knows one or
two men who have pursued education in
this way. and we are used to compare
them with their colleEe-bred Coevals and
pass opinions as to which method of In
tellectual development resulted best. Ev-
cry year there are lads who were fitted
for college and, perhaps. entered. but
went abroad. To compare them six or
eight. or ten or twenty years later with
their schoolmates who went on and took
their college degree Is. perhaps the most
available test of the respective efficiency
or the two methods: ard 1t seems safe
TO say that, according to that test, the
educational fruits of travel and study
abroad compare very well with the pro-
ducts of the domestic tree of knowledge
