A great many OF the best students
were from the rural districts. and
these students were generally the
most Industrious. The plan under
which new courses are added partic-
ularly commends itself to the practi-
cal man.
Whenever n group OF men make In.
Quiry, who can afford. jointly, to pay
the cost Of the instructor. n course is
added.
In Denver some OF the best teaching
talent in the world Is to be had. and
there Is never any trouble In provid-
ing expert practical instruction.
Real success today depends upon
trained brains more than upon beef
and muscle. Plenty OF men are to be
had for the hard. manual work. but
not enough men who can work with
their muscles and brains together.
Machines and mechanical contrivances
do most of the hard work today. Men
are needed to guide them with their
brains.

from the preacher. 1t was the habit
Of the president to have preachers
from all denominations, and Method
lists, Episcopalians, Catholics. He
brews. Baptists and advanced think
ers had their respective hearing.
The choir. however. often grew rest
less and Miss Wilson in particular
was prone to creep unobserved out of
the choir loft and walk on the campus
The whole choir often followed her
daring example. One long.winded
Methodist was particularly tiresome
and when he preached 1t was a safe
wager that the singers could be found
anywhere but in the church during
the sermon.
However, there came a Sunday
when this particular shouter abso-
lutely lost his voice when he
had reached "tenthly." The serv.
ice had to stop. OF course.
and the voiceless preacher whispered
that the choir would sing the last
hymn. A painful pause ensued un-
broken by any response from the
choir. The president parted the cur
taips and found the choir loft de-
serted except for freshman who was
contentedly curled up on the organ
seat fast asleep.
Next Sunday no curtain divided the
choir from the congregation and for
once the singers were among the
most attentive listeners.
