The Junior and Senior years Of
fer wide choice of electives in
addition to the usually required
studies of Philosophy, Psychology
and Ethics, and also a second
Modern Language if only one was
offered on entrance. At this point
the student having laid a broad
foundation may begin to specialize
and follow his or her chosen bent.
To one the Ancients beckon, to
another the modern poets appeal
in even greater measure, third
finds in the world Of science his
chosen field, while fourth in the
department of Sociology learns
how to deal practically with the
dependent, the defective and de-
linquent classes, to aid without
pauperizing them, and to help
them help themselves. And SO
with each group in turn, each
student choosing according to the
special bent of the mind, or the
ultimate purpose for which the
course is being pursued.
In combination with the regular
College work, physical training is
required during all four years at
many o: the Colleges, especially
those for women. a healthy body
is looked upon as quite as import
ant essential as a we'll stored mind.
Courses in Physiology and I1y-
giene are also included in the re-
CURED work in most Colleges for
women. These courses aim to
give instruction as to proper sani-
tary precautions, the care of the
house, and especially the nects-
sity OF the proper observance of
the laws of health.
Thus equipped, the modern Col
lege graduate. man or woman,
should be fitted to take his or her
place in the world, performing the
duties of everyday life Justly,
skilfully and magnanimously."

dock and smiled when he was arraigned.
lie smiled as he walked to the little
stand where the witnesses tell their
tales, and smiled at the judge, looking
like a minstrel man jack-in- the box
character. The smile was Infectious,
for Judge Pugh laughed out loud and
said:
Now, who in the world can sentence
a man with smile like that?'
