COLLEGE AND BUSINESS.

T>lIE latest opinion on the much disputed
i question Oft the business value of college
education is that of MIR. Charles NJ Schwab,
president of the United States Steel Corporation.
In an address to the students of St. George S
Evening Trades School he says:
Success is not money making alone. And want
to state that Of the truly great men know in indus
trial and manufacturing lines none college bred
men who recieveda an industrial or mechan, Al eiuca-
ton, and who worked up by perseverance and ap-
plicanton.
Let me advise you all to an early start in lfe The
boy with the manual training and the common
school education who can start in life at sixteen or
seventeen can leave the boy who goes to college till
he is twcney or more so far behind in the race that
he can never catch up.
No doubt Mr. Schwab correctly reports the
results of his own experienc but other men of
different experience reach exactly the opposite
conclusion. Many man of great wealth and
high position who started with common school
training or no book learning at all is thoroughly
convinced that he was handicapped in his strug-
gel, and determined that his children, though they
begin at the lowest round of the industrial lad
der, shall have the best college education before
entering upon their business career. The differ.
ing authorities suggest that probably it is all a
matter of point of view. One man sees the col
lege bred success. Mr. Schwab particularly says
that he does not count morey making alone as
success. Therefore the inquiry concerning the
comparative accomplishments of the educated
swered by mere figures of salary or relative rank
at forty years ofage. We must see which is the
happier and more useful in all the relations of
ofife When success is so measured, talk about

one being so far ahead at the beginning Of the
raise that the other can never catch up is idle.
He may not " catch up", but he may be the bet
ter rounded, more useful man. the one for whom
lifeis the better worth living. The college bred
man may not fill some places in business as readily
as his common school trained rival, but other
things he does better. To him and his knowl-
edge of science and mathematics some of the
greatest advances and economies of manufacturing
re due. The traine ch, mists and electricians
are absolutely essential to industrial progress.
Wise men in every line of business are on the
lookout for assistants who will have not merely
efficiency and executive ability but large intell-
gence and bring to their aid not only technical
learning, bnt cultivated thinking capacity.
Doubtless college education which turns a
youth out on the world with the notion that he
is a superior beng who is fitted by his college
diploma for at least junior partnership in a
business which he knows nothing about is not a
fit preparation for industrial success. This edu-
cation is too often the stock in tradeof many we'll
meaning boys, but thousands of others leave COL
lege with earnest purpose and alert minds, ready
to learn business from the beginning as they
would profession, and prepared to use in that
business as they learn it brains well developed
by conscientious use of the advantages of COL
lege course. Success in busnessis largely mat
ter of individual character. The college man
with the right stuff will get on, and the office
boy with the wrong stuff will fail A habby
college education is perhaps worse proportions
for business than no education at all, and the col
legian's failure is much more conspicuous than
that of the Office boy and creates stronger pre-
judce in the employer. The number of college
men in business is small compared with the COM
mon school boys, so it is not remarkablet that the
latter should predominant among the great men
ofindustry. That does not prove, however, that
the earnest college graduate willing to enter bus
mess in the right way has not fair chance and
will not throughout his life find the college train
ing scource of strength and happiness.
