Does our present university training take too many years of the average mans life? Will the problem be solved by shortening the college course, or by allowing the introduction of pro- fessional or technical studies within the limits of that course? There is no one better fitted to discuss these and kindred questions than the president of Yale university, Arthur T. Hadley, whose views on "The Immediate Flu ture of the American College" will be published in the April Century. "The college course is not valued solely or even primarily for it's studies," Pres ident Hadley is quoted as saying; Git is valued most of all for the associa- tions into which it brings the student and the graduate. .... The American college tries to furnish liberal educa- tion in the old Greek sense of the word-an education which its the student for the use of liberty and en- ables him to understand the duties and privileges of free citizen"

 The third great disaster in the United States within little more than a year, marked by appalling loss of life, was recorded in the news of Tuesday morning. This time it is Massachu- setts that suffers, and again the vic timS number women and children overtaken in an instant by a rush of irresistible flames, crowds of spectators standing by powerless to help. The loss of life by Monday mornings dis aster in the Grover shoe factory at Brockton may reach 100, perhaps more. The moral of the disaster is an old one. with new phase. A defective boiler, or defective attention to the boiler, caused the disaster. Which it was and how such an accident can be pre- vented in future will, of course, be the study of proper authorities. It will be remembered that in the Iroquois thea ter fire, during the holiday pantomime on December 30, 1903, over 400 lives were lost. The loss by the steamer Slocum disaster on June 15, 1904, wheu a Sunday school picnic party were th+ victims will never he known There were about 1000 victims. In the list of disasters in Massachusetts, Mon days explosion and fire take place as one of the most serious. By the col lapse and burning of the Pemberton mills at Lawrence, January 10, 1860, the number of dead accounted for was 1l7, while 89 were left on the records as missing and some 15O were injured. By the Mill river flood in Western Massachusetts, May 16, 1874, 40 lives were lost, and in the fire in the French Catholic church in Holyoke during the feast of Corpus Christi, May IT, 1875, upward of 70 perished.
