came TO The conclusion that the less
aid about money the better.
In course of time he married and

poymalion and Virgil. although he
ought 10 have known better. When
they were eleven years old they did
uof know money by sight. OF course
they had heard Of it in their reading

INTO the wagon and drove off. KS

nothing but law papers.
Pygmalion and Virgil carried the
box up to their fathers bedroom and
then sat down to rest.
This is the box that Mr.. Salton-

THE GOLDEN RULE IN COLLEGES.

Writing in the June Success" Mayor
Samuel E. Jones, Of Toledo, has this to
say about college results: Very many
college graduates are reluctant to take
Oft their cuffs and go TO work with their
hands. They see a wide breach between
mental and physical work, and are disin-
clined to bridge it, even for the forward
ing of a high ultimate purpose. The
young man who feels this great difference
between the two kinds OF work has heen
falsely trained. 1t is, of course, better
for him to work with his brain, if he has
a good one, but the best brain-wOrkers
are always those who have done, ana
never hesitate to do, physical work.
If | were a young man and decided to
go to college, ] should go TO one Of the
institutions where special courses are
provided from the beginning to fit the stu
dent for the career which he proposes to
follow. / should make every effort to
master my subiects-not with q view,
however, Of understanding or ~triumphine
over others III the struggle of life, but
through a desire to do useful and effective
work. The real pleasure and true sue
cess in life are to be found in this kind
of achievement, and not in winning VIC
! tories over fellow workers. 1t is merely
the dppllcdtlOn OF the SOlden RUE. II the
majority applied it to everyday affairs,
most of our social and political problems
would be solved, and this world would
be a much happier one to live in. Many
colleges teach selfishness-that the way
to succeed in life is to defeat others. For
the professions. special preliminary train
ing is necessary. but for business, and
speaking more broadly, for successful
living as true men and women the great
essentials are character and self-disci-
pine. in which the college graduates have
no monopoly.
