POVERTY NO BARRIER
TO COLLEGE EDUCATION
Harvard Inquiry Shows Large Per
Centage Of Men Earned as
They Learned"

Boston, March 23.-A,student IN an
American university can be successful
in study, sports and social life even
when compelled to support himself
throughout his college career, accord
ing 10 the findings of an inquiry con-
Quoted at Harvard. Poverty, the IN
vestigators report, Is not an insuper-
able barrier to students who have mi
tiative and courage. :.
The inquiry showed that some SELF
suppor ting students earned S5,0oO or
more in their four years at the UNI,
versity, and that it was not unusual
for a student TO earn S3OoO, stand
well in his classes and be leader IN
student activities.
One man who earned the latter sum
One man who earned the latter sum
belonged to four college clubs, rowcd
on the varsity crew and was among
the best known men at college. An
other, who earned similar amount;
was An officer of his class, was elected
70 three clubs, sang In the giee ciuD
and was first marshal of Phi Beta Kappa
A student who earned his way from
start TO finish and was captain OF the
university team told the lnquirers that
the fact that he was set-supportihg
did not, so far rs he knew, exc iude
hum fIom any OF the ciub ne at C"i'cS'.
In fact, every man interviewed, except
two, said the self-supporting student
was at no disadvantage not under any
social stigma. On the contrary, many
stated that college men were lSeiy
TO admire man more because he was
Gaming his way.
Some of the occupations which en-
ahled Harvard men to pay their way
were those of waiter, tutor, reporter,
artists model, bookkeepcr, farm Ia
borer, day laborcr, organist, choir singer,
writer, Ibrarian, social service worker,
ticket taker, athletic coach, physical
director, tire builder and steward. The
easiest way for 3 self-supportlng student
b earn his expenses with minimum
expenditure Of time was tutoring or
octing as q tutor-companion.

Resigns His Life;
Blarnes Prohibition
and His Relatives

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 19.--Recom-
mendations that all banks be nation
allied and statement that rrohibi-
ton was the underlying cause OF
financial difficulties which termin-
ated in his suicide was contained in
a note headed, For the benefit OF
the public and my creditors" ap-
parently written before Otto F. Stiff
fel, former millionaire brewer,
sportsman, politician and coal mine
operator sent bullet through his
head at his Valley Park farm home
yesterday.
Embodied in the note also was
bitter TRADE against relatives"
whom Stiffel declared fleeced him
while pretending to aid him when
certain st. Louis bank started to
squeeze him on a $4,000 note
when prohibition became effective.
Stiffel, who inherited $2.50O,0OO
from his father, told in the notes OF
efforts to keep his head above wa
ter by soliciting aid from relatives
in order to meet the $135,OQ0 obli-
cation. He declared their aid con-
sisted solely of forcing him to sell
various holdings far below their val
ue in the endeavor to, raise the re-
quired amount.
81 hope the next congress will ma
tionalize the banks; forbid any
clioues from controlling the peo-
pies money and making one hundred
per cent on it. If the banks were
nationalized your great wars would
stop" the note says.

SHOE LEATHER
FOR TIME

The worthy people who are put
ting on the Back to SCHOOL, Jubilee
today in Bingham county fc,nd out
last week that they would have to
raise some money, about $50. Like
everybody else in similar dilemma
they didn't have to think twice be-
fore they hit upon the same old
scheme, "Get it from the business
men," so they went out and traded
shoe leather for time.
They had long letter of explana-
tion and if merchant stopped t.
read it he paid twice, once in cash
j. and once in time. But the most dis
agreeable feature of this everlasting
cash collecting from the business
men is that it always throws man
out of gear mentally. The train of
his thought is severed and when he
mends it up afterwards. again he'll
like as not forget twofor three Of
the loose threads and have to 60
back and do some of his work over
the following day.
Collecting funds by subscription
for any purpose, no matter what, is
a shameful waste. Having gradu-
ally awaked to that fact business
men now have organizations thru
which they act collectively, each con-
tributing fair share towards chart
ties and public benefits.
Any town the size of BIackfoot
should have a public charities asso-
citation, such as we did hear talk of
last fall, to which all organizations
should give donations by the budget
system.
Everybody is tired of having to
meet the recurring problems of COM
munity life in full detail every time.
If a mans time is worth anything
he would much rather pay once a
year and pay enough to cover his
part in all the good works public
and private to which he may be ex-
pected to contribute during the year.

"WHERE AMBITION LEADS"

remember a man at college VINO
was a CONSPICUOUS figure because ne
always came to his morning class
accompanied by his wife AMI carry,
ing a baby. My curiosity prompted
me to ask one of his classmases con.
corning him. Here is his story as
it developed
He became fired with an ambition
to study law. Notwithstanding his
meager means he gave up his job as
bookkeeper for a hardware firm and
entered college that fall being then
nearly thirty years of age.
He supported his family by rum
ming a laundry route, waiting on
tables and working as janitor at one
of the college buildings. He found
time however to rank second in the
law school and made Phi Beta
Kappa, a very exclusive fraternity
whose membership is made UP OF
those ranking highest in their
classes.
Now if this man could overcome
these obstacles surely you can do
as we'll.
Get back in school.

torium.

RaiIrpav Rebuilt

That the track and rolling stock of
the Portland and Oregon City railway
is in such bad repair and so entirely
inadequate as to require immediate re-
pair in the interest of safety to pa
irons and employees of the road is the
gist of letter directed to J. N. Hart
Of Portland, secretary-treasurer of the
company by Fred G.. Buchtel, chair
man of the oregon public service COM
mission.
Commissioner Buchtel calls special
attention to the Rusk Hill bridge
which, he declares, is in such a bad
state of decay as to require imin,"

the entire structure. This same con-
dition also exists to a greater or lesser
degree in the Dedman trestle near
Gladstone and and in two smaller
trestles at Rock Point, Butchtel points
out.
This commission very naturally
does not wish to see service over this
line interrupted" BuchtePs Letter states
nevertheless, from our advice. we
deem it imperative for the pupisc
safety that cars cease to operate until
such instructions with reference to re-
pairs are carried out as were given bs
