No word In the language has been abused and
rnisconstrued than the word Culture" The Herald
believes it has found the true definitions-three of
them-and viii hand them over to readers. Culture
is the power to put oneself in the other mans place;
culture is the power to get with all ones fellow
creatures; culture is the fitting oneself 10 the
human race most efficiently.
Assuming that boys and girls 60 to college to gain
Culture" the usefulness Of the college training be-
comes clearer when considered in the light Of the den

One thing that boys and girls ought TO get out Of

of St Paul ought guide every boy and girl through

n Ut ONE more day remains in which to vote IN the
University Scholarship club. The club was
formed in order to give an opportunity to de-
serving boys and girls to gain the benefits of college
education even though they might lack the means
Of self support at the start. Men who Join the club
and pay 81 each per year. vote for boy candidate and
women members vote for girl candidate This year
there two candidates in each class-high school
graduates who desire to continue their studies
The club is unique, and it is such an excellent plan
that it ought to expand rapidly so that its field
Of usefulness might be widened More than two can
didates ought to be sent college each year. and the
students loan fund plan ought to be developed so
that many more earnest students might have a chance
TO continue their studies without being cramped for
funds during the training years.
These scholarships awarded the basis Of per
sona merit plus energy. Only students who have at
tanned certain grade In their school work are eligible
among members Of the club. The race Is a valuable
test IN itself, and It IS gratifying to all who have had
part IN nsuguratng the club plan, to know that in
each case those who have been honoTed with the award
year by year have done excelently in their college
work, and have been distinguished in their classes
There IS always more less difference of opinion
about the necessity Of college education to Success"
IN HE It Is true that many and women have
attained distinction IN various lines without having
mad this advantage. Sometimes the calling itself in
which young man woman enters, supplies some
thing that the college might have supplied. Early

But the whole it is safe to say that the well schooed
young man woman will In a few years catch up

ege brings to him There are plenty of good colleges,
and the choice Of college is not important as are
the choice of ideals and the planning of ones college
years to get the most out Of them
Tie Herald cannot run with those who advocate
the gaining of higher education merely for its own
sake-for the pleasurahle sense Of possession and
imaginary Superiority" To our mind no education
is worth anything that does not lead to service and
us-the Intellectual clustered life devoted always 10
absorbing and never to giving forth. On the other
hand The Herald does not go to the extreme of some
pragmasts, who hold that the chief end Of education
IS to fit for money making for pleasure in the sense
Of self indulgence.
The Herald does believe that "A prime condition
OF good citizenship and of self respect is the power of
self support and the power to support ones natural
dependents To this extent, The Herald believes educa
hon from first to last should trend toward practical
application But this easily be carried to an ex-
