for the duties of life that they must
still be taught. the things most neces-
sary to be known. We have tried vii
rious methods for meeting this com-

plaint. What is called the elective
system in school and college work is
largely an attempt to open new roads
to actual usefulness by entering to in-
dividuai taste. This system has been
found helpful and will surely be con-
tinned and extended This. not because
the elective. system cobbles the few to
follow the line of least resistance but
becausé it makeover; possible for the
many to d ey the liubtle, natural laws
of chdraoter. But there has been gain
ing g1 ound for a considerable period a
more. important idea than that at the
basis of the elective syltem of studies;
and that idea is, that all schools ought
to be professional schools in spirit.
method and purpose.

“What reason is them for going to
the big school. to the college? There
are man answers. “are is a very
common one. ‘lf you go to college,‘
it has been said, 'you will become one
of a pleasant class of people. You will
get your living more easily, escape
some hardships, unload upon the loss-a
fortunatc'scme of your dust portion of
the world‘s burden of care and labor.
No wonder that to many it seems con-
sistent. then; to enter at once upon
this dealer life and to make the col
lege coursu four yours of leisure. No
wondef that many more earliest souls
~b0ys dumbly conscious of the un
worthiness of such a Inotivewwill have
nothing to do with such a life. and sur-
prise their parenlc by saying. ‘i don't
want. to go to college, i want to go
to work.’

“ii is not. enough, indeed that it is a
mere trifle, that the colleges put it in
the power of their graduates to live
lives marked by pleasures and grati-
ficatlon‘s from which the uneducated
are shut out. it is a small Illing that
the college man is able to appreciate
the great literaturos of the world, able
to comprehend the thoughts of philoso-
phers. able to undcrstaud the marvels
of natural law as revealed by modern
physical science. He may be alLthis
