more than ever an important part in
college life this year. T.
The work in the classes of the
department of biology has enlarged to
such an extent this year that the
department has been obliged to order
a number of compound microscopes.
Applications for the shorter courses
are coming in very rapidly and while
it was necessary to turn away two or
three hundred students last year on
account of lack of class rooms and
equipment, it seems from every indi-
cation at present that a great many
more will be unable to avail them
selves of the training that this school
affords simply from this same lack of
-commodations at the school.
It is the intention of the authorities
OF this school to ask the legislature
| this winter to place this school in such
a position that it can take care of all
young men and young women of this
state that want to come to it. Until
this is done" as remarked a prominent
farmer of the state the other day, 'the
agricultural college is not on an even
basis with other institutions of the
state"
The young folks who have been
turned away in the past and will be
turned away this winter, come from
the most important element of oul
citizenship and will be compelled from
the very nature of things and from
the growing position in the develop
ment of this commonwealth and it i:
most unjust to them to limit in an.
way their chance of educationa
development The training given b.
, this school is of the kind that come
most intimately in touch with tn
/ growth of this state-that satisfies it
greatest educational needs, bein
practical in it's nature rather thai
academic.
