The most ltopeful cbaracteriotlc of the American colleges Is the self-sup­porting student, says the Cincinnati Post. It has been said that any boy In tills country who wants an education can get It, If he wants It bad enough. 'l'be tt·uth of this Is being demonstl'l&t­ed now mol'e clearly than ever before.

There Is common complaint that the (JOor boy's chances to get ahead In the world are not what they used to be. That Is not borne out by the facts in any de11artment of l ife.

Since the beginning young men have worked their way through colleges. Poverty has been no bar.

The growth of the practice is lncll­cnted by the report of the secretary of Columbia col lege committee on em­ployment of students, from whlcn I t appears \.bat Columbia slullents during the past summer earned $:!1,401, an in­

crease of $13,000 over their earnings for the year before.

'l"he number of vacation workers this year was uoarly ten per cent. or the eoti t·e university attendance. The· oc" cupatlons engaged In ranged in varl�ty from tr·uck driving to the 'operation of a printi ng office, and the largest sum earned was $1,000 by a Jaw student.

What thQ wage-earning student loses froin the college course he makes up In practical application of bis talents to the real worl< or ll fe. He is better prepared, perhaps, to step Into 1111 chosen occupation when college days are over than Is the fellow-student whose way has been made easy . and who knows 11othlug of the difficulties to be encountered.

The hoy who works for his education learns what an education Is for, and places It In Its proper perspective in his view of life.
