 Columns
By ROBERT LEE CARTER

New York. January Especial IA portion of New York's working popula- tion which has grown to proportions which demand attention in the statis- tical tables Is the college man who is working his way through college.
 If there is any one who has gotten the idea into his head that the study Amerieanism which impels young America to get an education at no mat ter what cost is on the decline almost any New York business man could dis abuse his mind of it, for among the ap- plicants for work which he must pass upon are always good proportion of college men. No less than 63S young men are working their way through Columbia and they are by no means particular as to work they are willing to do.
 Here are some of the jobs held by Co., umbia men:
 Thirteen furnace attendants, 27 la borers, 24 watchmen. 40 walters, 2 chauffeurs. 52 agents. 35 stenographers, 73 typewrters, PA collectors, 230 clerks 1 rug seller 6 pallbearers
 When the City college, the New York university, the many medical colleges and other institutions of learning are considered it is safe to say that the number of men in New York who are supporting themselves while gaining a college or professional education in New York runs away into the thous- ands.
 And there is work and education here for all of them.
