activities? The answer is simple:
To the extent that they permitted the
spirit of the institution to mould
them, they have moral integrity
they can be trusted.
The Brigham Young University
stands for CHARACTER. Its def
milton of truly educated man is this:
One able to do the things that need
to be done. AS to what these things
are, it is willing to let our Father in
heaven have voice. Ability to do,
involves keenness of intellect; there
fore, its courses of study are made
technically exacting. But permission
to do, involves being trusted by ones
fellows; consequently character, not
scholarship alone, is the paramount
issue. Indeed the motto of the in
sttution has come to be:
Character is Power"
The school offers work from the
kindergarten to the university in
graded series of we'll equipped de-
partments. 1t has Training school,
Preparatory school, High school,
a Normal school, Commercial school
school of Arts and Trades, a Music
school, and pllege. Each of these
schools offers thorough courses lead
ing to diploma or degree. 1t the
student wishes to prepare for college.
he has here the best of opportunities;
if he wishes to become teacher, he
may follow that line under compe-

wholesome life that the student HIM
self is accustomed to. Owing to its
rural character, the town is free from
many of the gilded vices of the city
At the same time Provo lacks none
of the educating and refining tenden-
cies of modern times, such as theatres
concerts, lectures, and other social
functions of that kind. Nor Is it
behind the larger cities in the matter
of electric lights, piped water sys-
TEN, and sewer connection; while in
point of natural and improved beauty,
it continues to maintain its title, the
Garden city of Utah"
Another feature is deserving of
special mention. During the last few
years, building era has been On in
the city; this leaves vacant great
many comfortable houses that can be
rented at moderate rates by students
who need to get along on the smallest
margin of expense Perhaps more
than half our students are thus keep
ing house, each year in order to get
an education Some of these are
making ends meet at a surprisingly low
figure. Four young ladies reported Il
bill of $I7.I5 apiece for board and
lodging for twenty weeks during the
second semester of 1904. These fig
ures would hardly hold for the last
two years; yet when the cost of liv-
ing is less than $500 per week, very
little expense is saved by staying at

tent instructors; if he wishes to pre-
pare for business pursuits, he can
receive no better training anywhere;
if he wishes to pursue vocal or instru-
mental music, he will find facilities
here the best in the state; if he wish
es to learn trade he may do that,
and still be surrounded by the cultur-
al influences of the school at large
If he wishes to specialize in any of the
higher branches of science or engin-
eering, he will be well provided for in
the College.
In all this work, the student is in
constant touch with the ideal spoken
above. Indeed, it is this that gives
to the school its distinctive character
and makes it so desirable a place for
young people to prepare for life.
Provo AS An Educational Center.
A center of education should have
pure water, pure air, and plenty OF
elbow room. The food should. as
nearly as possible, consist of products
direct from the farm with natures
own breath still exhaing from them
Indeed, the ideal home for a school
is one which combines all the natural
advantages of the country with the
social advantages of the city.
Looked at from one point OF view,
Provo is still a country town; most
OF its citizens, especially those who
take in students, are farmers with
comfortable city homes, and live the

WHAT THE B. Y. UNIVERSITY
STANDS FOR.

When, for over a quarter of a CEN
fury, any school has been enshrined
in the hearts of the people, it is we'll
to single out for special study the
principles for which it stands. Should
the gratitude of our patrons be ques-
toned, this father would perhaps say:
1T made man of my reckless boy"
and that mother would probably add:
1T saved my daughter at a time
when fashion was about to claim her;
taught her that wifehood and mother
hood are the noblest aspirations of
woman" Both would perhaps say:
1T awakened in the hearts of our
children an abiding testimony of the
Gospel"
Another way in which we might
discover what that principle is, would
be to follow up the lives of these
young men and women after they
leave school. In the ecclesiastical
field they will be found among presi-
dents of stakes, bishops of wards
mission presidents, superintendent of
Sunday schools and of other auxiliary
CARNATIONS; in the world Of poll
tics and business affairs, they are
no less conspicuous for leadership;
while in the professions of teaching,
medicine, and law, they are steadily
supplanting men and women whose
moral and religious training was ne
elected. What then is it that places
them in the forefront of all human

GALE TRUSTS ROOSEVELT

When talking to The Alaskan this morning Delegate Gale said, "The President asked me to go and see him in November, before he made up his message, SO that I might scqusint him with the conditions existing in Alaska that be might thus be more prepared Go make suggestions to congress for Alasks's betterment. I am certain that he will do all he can to aid us when he knows the state of affairs that exist" The action of Theodore Roose. velt in this instance has every indi- cation of bis sincerity in wanting to help the territory. He is frank enough to acknowledge that he does not know the conditions that prevail up here and goes to the terrltory's representative to get his information. When be gets that information there is DO one who will question his intention to do right by Alaska. Delegate Gale has pinned his faith to Roosevelt, and in doing so his judgment looks good to The Alas kan.

1t Is claimed that under strict
enforcement OF the provisions of the

this Is nc argument against enforce
ment. On the contrary there is much
reason to believe that prices Gun not
go any higher than they are now, be-
cause they arc all that the trade will
bear or the people will stand. How
ever, tho people of tho country want
to SEQ the law enforced fairly ana
strictly, because If 1t shall promote

aging fraud and swindling. there will
be an Irresistible popular demand for
the further extension and perfection
OF the act.
