WASHING WINDOWS
FOR AN EDUCATION

PRINCETON. March 29.-when a
thousand graduates of Princeton, plus
nearly all the athletic heroes now in
the University, stood up and cheered
their new president at the big dinner
recently given in President John Hib-
ben's honor at the Waldorf-Astoria,
in New York. many persons might
easily have supposed that anyone who
had any connection whatever with Old
Nassau had at least some funds to
burn But that isn't really so. for it
is a question If any large college or
university in America has among its
students so great a proportion of men
who have to exc out their slim funds
with money they are able to earn
themselves during their four years un-
der the Princeton elms or during the
months Of their summer vacations.
Indeed, so important phase of uni
versity life has this became at Prince
ton that a bureau of student self-help,
which has been in existence some
time. has this year been placed on a
permanent basis by the appointment
of a regularly employed resident sec
retary. 1t is this secretary's business
to develop the field of student employ
ment by huntilE up opportunities for
work and then bringing together both
the opportunities and the students
That both the opportunities and the
the men are there is conclusively
shown by the bureau books. which
contain the names of about $50 stu
dents who are either entirely or par
TALLY working their way through
Princeton. OF these, 153 entered the
University with $500 or less as their
total funds Of the year; 46 of the 15S
having less than $500 for their entire
yearly expenses.
There is no false pride about these
men who have come to Princeton.
They want, first Of all, the education
and training the Orange and Black
/ offers, and they are perfectly willing 10
work hard to get it. In fact the sort
of pride they do show is the sort that
wins them commendstion everywhere
| They can attend furnaces and they dc
wash windows. proud all the time that
the money is to be earned and spent
in so worthy a cause.
The work the students do is of va
rious kinds There is a Students

pairs the mems wordrobes during the

of the club and they employ other stu.

will be the fault of the tax collectors.
We are not tax collectors, but | Wisn
l was. We have done things that
have made us unpopular, but that
makes no difference to me. am
doing what | think is my duty Col.
Stover added that certain people had
done things during the past two weeks
which were surprising to him, but he
did not care to refer to this.
I'VE have done all we can do" he
said, "and if there is big fat deficit
It will he up TO the tax collectors"
Col. Stover reported that the S5O,OOO
bond issue for refunding water bonds,
bids for which were opened yesterday,
