THE POOR BOY AND COLLEGE.

Emory j. Haynes in New York World
Does the enormous, recent endow-
ment of colleges make it easier for the
poor boy? That is, may he more gen.
orally hope to get college education.
the question of his personal expenses
being considered? Evidently the college
is nearer his home, the farm or VIII
lage where he lives, and the home ia
cliit1es OF board are greater because
there are so many small good colleges
not far from the poor boys. But these
excellent and struggling institutions
are not the beneficiaries of late over
Whelming endowments.
The Rhodes scholarships plainly help
the student. But are there any other
conspicuous helps directly to the stu
dent that can be recalled? The vested
FUNDS that pay current expenses of
the college reduce or, perhaps in some
rare instances. eliminate tuition fees
No doubt a cheapening at any point
works to the students advantage But
the cost of college education is the
living, the clothing and housing Of the
individual. The boy is, in theory. to
devote his time to study for four years.
1t should be true that study is his bust
ness-that the college curriculum fur
nishes him his days work.
To say that the boy with scant
means may work his way" is not to
the point That is a forced effort. a
necessary extra labor 1t may do the
boy good. But there is no denying the
fact that such outside work is univer-
sally regretted in it's necessary sub
traction of enegy by all college instruc-
tors. The professor will help the young
man, but he is sorry be cannot give
the course his undivided attention.

Working ones way may be very
heroic in biography, but 1t is simply
bitter, biting misery Of poverty and
