Waen MT Carnegie established hia
Foundation for the Advancement Of
Teaching. he may or may not have
had in mind a uniication aud stan-
dardizing OF college education In
North America but that is something
which his great gift ID likely to accom-
plish. The nominal purpose Of the
Foundation is to provide a fund the In
come from which may provide retlr-
ing pensions for aged professors in
such non-sectarian colleges Of the Uni.
ted States Canada and Newfoundland
as are not supported BY the state
This purpose has been strictly adj
hered TO- but in order that It might be
accomplished 1t has been necessary
for the president and trustees to do
much preliminary work What is a col
lege2 What is non-sectarlan?" Does
a small grant from state constitute
state support? These and other simi.
lar questions were fundamental. In
order to settle the first one, says the
Youths Companion, the officers Of the
Foundation were obliged to establish
certain standards Of admission. cur
riculum and graduation. to which
every institution which desires its pro
fessors to benefit by the fund must
conform. The direct result Is a gen
eral raising Of the standard Of college
education throughout North America.
The result Of the investigation into
the sectarianism Of colleges is having
the effect Of defining more clearly
than has ever been done before the re-
latlons between various denomina-
tions and the colleges with which they
have been related by bonds Of one sort
or another. This, too, is a gain. stll
g third result is the establishment o.
q uniform system Of accounting among
college treasuers. which. in turn, xiii
make possible better knowledge of
and chance for wise suggestions con.
ceFning the Investment Of college
funds. The value Of participation ia
the benefit Of this fund is kecnly felt
by the colleges. A large part of the
time Of the trustees is devoted to in
yestigatng the claims Of American ia-
stitutions which desire that their pro
fessors shall share in the pensions
yielded BY the fund.

WORKS FOR CIVIC PRIDE.
Excellent Scheme Devised by Mer-
chants Of Western City.

A new scheme for arousing local
pride is being worked in an enterpris-
ing western city. The plan in brief
is. instead Of attempting to vitalize
the civic spirit Of the whole commu-
nifty, to organize clubs in different To-
oalities and to clean up and light up
certain sections, without regard to
what may be done elsewhere. For in
stance, a club is organized in a
single block. and merchants on each
side Of the street are persuaded to
join. If it is desired to make the
block brilliant with light at night an
investigation is had to see how it can
be done, how much it will cost and
what it is worth. The plan has worked
+ SO successfully that organizations are
springing up all over the same city to
devote their attention to cleaning or
lighting certain restricted territory.
It is much easier to secure co-opera-
ton between 20 merchants than be-
tween 200, and the influence Of the
few spreads in q widening circle
