the discipline, the atmosphere Of cul.
ture and learning, the associations, the
| traditions and historic background,
| the personal influence Of professors,

! kop9s the value and utility II possesses.
IN the familiar phrase, the mission of
the college is to encourage plain living

lege there are students who tacitly re-
verse the formula and proceed on the

And the Yale statstician shows that
an extravagant allowance to student
Is a source Of moral danger. Poverty
Is bad for student; 1t means, Of
course, extra work outside and little
recreation and opportunity for assim-
ilation and reflection and beneficial
associations. But luxury is even worse
for the student, because it is more in
s1dious and demoraizing. It Is a tru-
ism that "as the amount of total ex-
pendttures increases the percentage
spent on necessities decreases" But 1t
Is certainly disquieting to find that
the wealthiest" class Of the Yale stu
dents spend more for drinking and
smoking than for their room rent and
furniture" and that while under
pleasure the highest (wealthiest) class
spends more than twice the proportion
that the lowest does" on music and
charity the order Is reversed The
parent who makes too generous an al
lowance for his college-attending son
does him disservice and an injury.
He exposes him to temptation of
kind destructive Of the essential mis-
sion Of the college. The Yale professor
says that "the men who take time to
spend 1897 year on pleasure and to-
bacco and intox1cants do not have
time enough left for their regular
work to rank high in their class" But
this is not the whole Of the mischief,
nor even the greater part of 1t. The
effect on character, on mental and
moral discipline, Is Of Infinitely great
er moment. At college enough is better

Of every willful lawbreaker whose case

"She isn't much better yet. Yes, it's
pretty hard. Papa stays at home most
it dreadfully inconvenient."
"Why. how is that?"
"Oh, don't you see? He doesn't I'M
derstand, like mamma. When mamma

stands; but when papa says 4, and I
