THE MINNESOTA IDEA
Vocational Guidance for Students OF
Western College

The time worn remark to the effect
that a college education fits young
man very well indeed to do nothing
will soon become obsolete. II has al
ready lost a large part OF its force
because the universities In general
have succeeded in their endeavors
to make the training they offer OF
more and more practical value Not
only have great professional schools
arisen, but the arts courses have
been so arranged as to afford oppor-
tunities for specialization Of study.
Two years ago Tufts reorganized It's
academic curriculum so that students
might obtain the groundwork for bus
mess, banking. journalism and the
like. The impression prevails that a
measure of success has greeted this
idea. Now the university of Mime
sofa is planning changes in the same
direction. Within the arts college
the students are to be divided into
groups according to the vocations
they intend to adopt At the head OF
each group there will be dean who
will act not only as adviser but as a
sort OF employment bureau. The
progress Of this scheme will be
watched with interest in the East,
particularly because it is the pet idea
of the new president of the univer-
sity, DIR. Vincent
A surprisingly large gain in the
number of students in the College Of
Liberal Arts is reported by North
western University. The registration
this year is 97S. as compared with
S97 last year. The only department
of the enrolment is the Medical
school, where slight falling of Is

Fletcher for Governor
For some months 1t has been

Cavendish is a candidate for the
republican nomination for governor
Last week Mr. Fletcher made a def

may know that we have one man
who is candidate and will continue
to be candidate until the state con
vention has given it's approval or dis
approval of his ambition,

Vermont with the high Office OF
governor my whole purpose will be
to advance in every possible way the
best interests of the state. Permit
me TO say further that, whatever
conditions may develop, no methods
will be adopted or restorted to in
my canvass that are not absolutely
proper and honorable At an appro-
pirate time in the near future
will define my position upon ques-
tons of state policy.
This statement of Mr. Fletcher's
attitude toward the nomination is
clean and above board and will APP
peal to his fellow citizens as the
utterance of worthy man Of high
civic and political ideals.
The Times will do what it can to
secure Mr. Fletcher's nomination
and election. There are several
good reasons why he should have the
united support Of the republican
party in Windsor and Windham

No matter where the wretch might go
Those two were by his side;
Forever mindful of their oath,
They would not be denied.
And once each day he had to hear
The question that he knew
"When last you talked with Vivian Gray,
What did she say to your
He sought for peace at Endrebar
In his mothers castle strong,
But he found no rest on his mother S breast
With those two men along.
Hunting and hawking avaled him naught,
Good sports he loved of old,
For the question grim was asked OF him
And made his blood run cold
Then Jared he forth to foreign lands
And with him vent the twain;
There was no place could yield him grace
To ease him Of his pain.
A maiden gave her love to him
o, he was fair to see!
But with her first kiss upon his lips
Came burning memory;
For there the two men stood again,
That question asked anew
"When last you talked with Vivian Gray
What did she say to your"
So new love failed; and on he fed
But ne'er could be alone,
For he had to hear that question drear
That brought to his lips groan.
And the years passed by and still he fled,
But ever followed they
With the words OF doom from the wronged gifl'
A soul for soul must pay.
At last he came to his own countree,
To long neglected grave,
And he knelt to pray to Vivian Gray,
Beseeching his soul to save;
Beseeching the girl his soul to save,
For his faith at the end was strong
That place in heaven was surely given
To her who'd suffered wrong.
And as he lay upon her grave
Beside him stood the two;
''When last you talked with Vivian Gray,
What did she say to you?"
Then Hugh of Endrebar rose up,
An aged man was he
~ ofJ ;,,t foi1ino hraoth
But his eye was bright to see.
''You ask the words of Vivian Gray
When last with her spoke?
They only came to me just now
AS flame bursts through the smoke.
"'Our grief is all OF EARTH she said,
In heaven we shall be free
To live together evermore,
Both loving ceaselessly.
"'And if l am first in that bright land,
Its glory will seem dim;
I'll stand alone before Gods throne
And beg your soul of Him.
''These were the words Of Vivian Gray
When last talked with her;
And now because of her great love
My sin has sepulcher."
With this he fell across her grave
Forever to lie still
Before Gods throne she'd claimed her own
When the years had worked their will
And the soul OF Vivian Gray drew down
From Gods great throne above
To take the whitened soul of him
Made perfect by her love.
