SUMNER WORK OF STUDENTS
An Army of 10000 to Be Added t
the Would Be Workers.

At this season, when most people are
looking forward to rest and summer va
cations, tens of thousands of young men
all over the country are preparing foa-
extra hard work. They are the vast ar
my of college students who depend up
on the earnings of the four months va
cation to carry them through their course
the following year. The summer work
of students has two aspects, the purely
monetary and the broadly adventurous
One is fully as interesting as the other
Considering the first, it has been said
a poor student entering university,
particularly one situated in large city
can. il he is provided with a modest
amount of money at the start, rely with
enough money to pay his living ex-
penses and perhaps even part of his tui-
ton fees. In fact, university authorl-
ties who have this branch of student ac-
tivity in their charge make no special
effort to discourage the incoming fresh-
man who is not provided with enough
money to pay his way. The statement is
made that a student coming to college
prepared TO meet the expenses of the
first half-year is fairly likely to secure
employment which will enable him to
meet the remainder of his expenses for
the year.
Nearly every wellrordered university
has committee on employment whose
duty it is to look after such students. In
the words of a man who is looking after.
The interests of $50 students in one great
university. THE student with the nee
essary qualities and sufficient money IN
hand to tide him over the rather haz-
ardous beginning period will be able to
make his way. If he has ability, perse-
verance and energy he will be almost
certain, sooner or later, to find en-
ployment." xsai
1t must be borne in mind that the stu
dent seeking employment during the
summer months has much against him
to begin with. Summer is the period
when business falls off in nearly every
branch In spite of this the students of
Columbia university during the summer
of 1910 were able to earn total of $32,-
31655. During the summer before that
their earnings were considerably above
$4,000 n YeFs
The range of employment is very wide.
Statesmen are Of course in greatest de-
mand and there are also many openings

fems and in other capacities.
A student is optimistic who expects
to return to college in the fall 500 the
richer for his experiences Many fall be-
low this figure, some indeed earning so
little that they must ask leave of abb
sence for year; but there are not an
inconsiderabe number who exceed this
figure, some by hundreds of dollars.
The highest record ever obtained by any
student in summer earnings, as far as
is known, was made by a sophomore
selling stock on commission. His earn
ings for the summer of 1910 covering a
period of five months, were exactly
1886. g.
A list OF the earnings of several stu
dents who did exceptionally well is in
teresting. The facts and figures are
taken from the report of the committee
on employment in one of the largest uni
yersities in the country:
A second-year medical student earned
by acting as physical director $500; as
life guard $3.50. total, $3.50.
student of philosophy earned by act
ing as secretary of national reform
organization 500, librarian $3.50; total,
$500
A third-year law student earned by
managing a seashore bathing establish
meut 5000
a frst-year law student earned by sell
ing straw salts 1896.
A freshman earned by tutoring $50, as
clerk in a hotel 5000: total $3.50.

bp tutoring $500. encyclopedia editorial
work 500, proctoring $51.5o; total, s35l50.
A senior earned by laying brick $3.50.

Not only are these figures interesting
butt the varied and peculiar nature OF
the work done is significant.
Farming might be expected to be espe
cially attractive both on account of tn,
healthful occupation and the specla
need of men during the summer months
yet few college students engage in tn,
work. 1t is as a rule, hard work, with
inadequate pay Princeton university
however. has made an innovation which
promises to make farming more popular
This institution has laid aside 10 acres
of good land to <be titled by students
who wish to be fself-supporting. poo
student coming to the university can b.
employed on this farm and earn 81 a day
This offers an Immediate and certain so
luton TO the problem of the ambitious
but poor student. Tie can enter the uni
versty with the full assurance that he
can maintain himself throughout hi
course, for there will be work for al
who apply, as the tract will be increases
if necessary.
Invitations have been Issued as a frs
step to the high school students Oh
Brooklyn and Manhattan to go to
Princeton for the summer months to
work on the farm and eventually enter
the university as self-supporting stu
dents
The romance of the rich student> who
at the close of the college year, sets out
upon a career of pleasure ard adventure
has been amply recorded. Pick up any
magazine at railroad station, especially
this time of year, and YOU will find his
story there. But the case OF the poor
student who must put his shoulder to
the wheel and set 1t going so that 1t
will keep in motion until the next vaca-
ton has been less exploited, perhaps for
the reason that at first glance Il seems
devoid of romance. yet to say that be-
cause 1t is chiefly a campaign for funds
the summer career of the self dependent
student is without interest or even de-
void of episode would be entirely beside
the truth
the trained story teller is to devise
plot by transplanting a man accustomed
TO a particular environment to one en-
tirely foreign to his experience or to his
temperament, This condition is present
in nearly every case of the student who
takes hand at anything that offers it
self during his vacation. Take the case
of an engineering student acting as
chauffeur to a rich man with a pretty

When the end of the match was dipped

soon discarded.
In 1892 the first friction match was
made to be pulled through piece of
