to $3.50, 600, 0000 and .the profits $S2,

Faculty Might Be Well Employed In

We regret to say. as the result OF
many years Of observation. that our
American colleges and universities
are tho source OF spendthrIft habits.
which projected into after life are the
cause Of appalling failures and OF the
ksenest sorrow to parents whose hopes
are blightcd. The habit Of extrava-
gance and luxury has such hold upon
colleges in this country that the facul.
tics should be charged with new du.
ties in the matter. The livery bills,
tailor bills. expenses for rides. dances
and card parties. the Indulgence In
rich and unnecessary food and drink
should be brought under faculty super.
vision and control. Parents will DO
found readily responsive and willing
to cooperate with tho university au-
thorities In keeping q check upon ex'
penditures and limiting them to tho
actual amount required for pursuing
studies In comfort. Indulgence In lux'
ury and extravaganza should be 70.
strained by prompt report from the
college to tho students home. In this
way parental influence may follow
knowledge and the student be saved
from the perils Of an environment In
which thousands have been wrecked.
