Distinctly A College For The Peoplt

distinctly College Fol The People
The State Model School at Trenton is
distinctly a Peoples College," The plan
OF grading is elastic. Ability to work, as
well as we'll as an exact knowledge, are
considered in classifying pupils.A student
who has reached the age of fifteen or six
teen, but who has not had the advantages
OF the town graded school, is not classified
In a mechanical way with persons nine
or ten years old who have the advantages
of regular attendance at school, but is reg
ular attendance at school, but is given a
chance with students of his W age to
make up for lost time.
Again, the course ofstudy distinctly re-
cognizessthe needs of the people. While
it covers all of the branches:necessary to
entering any one of the colleges, it also
gives careful attention to a number of adj
ditional branches that are in especial de-
mand in the arts, industries and in COM
mercial and mechanical drawing, stem
ography, commercial law, the beginnings
OF applied science as in physics, touching
electricity, etc., chemistry, botany, 20
ology and manual training.
The school keeps constantly in mind
the demands of the life to which the stud
ents are likely to go, and the best ar
rangement of studies to meet these de-
mands. In other words, while every rule
OF educational culture is carefullyOhserved
it is distinctly a practical school.

THE VILLAGE BEAUTIFUL.
What Could Be Accomplished by q
Well Organized Civic Club.

What Could BE Accomplished by q
Well Organized Civic Club.
Many American villages and towns
are disflgured by unsightly and filthy
rubbish heaps, ash dumps Uttered with
dirty paper and rags, tin a grave
yards, where the bones Of departed,
comestbles have not been properly
buried; hideous blots upon the land
scape that are often conspicuous from
the railway trains, giving visitors a
most unhappy and unjust impression
Of the thrift and refinement of the in
hahitants. !
In this respect, says the Christian
Endeavor World, American villages
are often In unfortunate contrast with
European towns Of the same grade.
where the inhabitants have too good
an eye to the main chance to allow
their villages to displease the stran-
gers eye and turn him away from
their hostelries and their shops.
A higher motive should animal the
young American in making bis village
the village beautiful. Love of home,
patriotism, proper civic pride, all enter
in.
A well organized Cd club San very
easily efface the worst blots on the
face Of it's village. With the help or at
least the consent of the village fathers
pnsightly dumps and ash heaps can be
leyeled, tin cans can be buried O Of
sight, receptacles for waste paper ~
be provided, the railway company can
be petitioned to embellish and beauttfy
the depot grounds, q petition which In
many cases they will grant when they
see the people are In earnest about the
matter, and a score Of ways the village
may be made a more beautiful place to
live In.
A dozen resolute young men in a civ
tc club can bring about all this by
ther unaided exertions oftentimes,
and then the citizens when they see
what a be done will. usually contrib
ute money and labor to keep their vii
lage beautiful.
