of the men who have amassed millions
than to lose one half of its college
bred men," was cheered, we suppose,

However, most OF these students will
go to work, and aided considerably by
their brains try to amass a million or

A census paper may look like very
traightforWard affair, but to sf1l5it up
with literal accuracy is not always an
easy business. The London Academy
tells d story, said to be new, of the
way in which De Quincy met one of
these census paper difficulties
The question as to his own
occupation was answered by the
statement that he was as'swriter
te the magazines" but when it
came TO the occupations Of his three
daughters. his troubles began again.
AT last he put a ring around the names
and wrote: g They are like lilies of the
field-they toll not neither do they
spin.''
This difficulty however, was not near
sly as great as that which confronted
an innocent family in Northumberland,
England, during census taking. There
was a baby in the house, and the coli
umn, deaf and dumb or blind was
a big problem to the conscientious par
ents.
They concluded that the baby could
hear and see, but it certainly could not
speak, and they accordingly putt down
Dumb" But just then a powerful
scream from the infant made them
reconsider the question, and they ulti-
mately altered the entry to: mot
dumb, but cam speak."
