women the other colleges have passed by, the great
class of young people who are willing enough to
work and hungry enough for an education to do
almost anything to get it, if they only knew how
to set about it. 1t is not our purpose to help any
student who ought to help himself, but simply to
provide the means whereby he may secure an edu-
cation when otherwise it would be impossible.
1--WE are especially interested in the young wom-
en-. It's q stiff proposition for a young man to go
away from home to get his living and his educa-
ton. at the same time, but it's almost impossible
for his sister. That is why we are providing for
the girls, too" .
While the fixed charge at Blackburn is 500. that,
of course, does not provide for everything. 1t costs
the college a hundred more for each student,
even after buildings have been provided. This is
made up out of the endowment and the help that is
received from time to time from generous friends
of the cause.

verse-his mother could not keep him
indoors.
Returning home after his long visit
to his grandmother, l said, walter,
