Crane, the Chicago millionaire,
self-made ai.d exultant because of
It. had something of right oil his
I Kide when he denounced college life
tor boys. There are too many stu
deiits who are Idle, snobbish, vic
ious, profligate of the clock us well
.in money; boys who spend more
; time on the cinder path than that
1 of learning; rounders who run
iown to New York and aro caught
l?y the claws of the lobsters they
i'eed to chorus girls.
Hut there is another class, grown I
?linost to a small army, of young!
el lows whose quest of learning dig
nifies it and them. They are the
toys who, lacking money, buy their
?duration with themselves; with
their strength and their sweat;
w ho spend their vacations muscular
iy that their school hours may be
-liven to brain.
They are met and heurd of ?very
w here in the hot days when the
invoiites of fortune loaf and enjoy
(heir souls. They work wherever
ttork is to be had und have no false
scruples about the nature of It.
j They lift it up by doing it. They
;.re farmhands and roustabouts on
.(earners; they enter mills or sit
.it d>~?ks or stand behind counters,
f hey do .ill things that are honest
and they do them honestly, in one
way the world Is their college; the
i-ollege of men und deeds, and,
when they get back to the college |
of thought and books, they are all]
? he better equipped for It.
The learning that these boys "<et
betters them and the world tit
large They take it w Ith them in I
keep it. increasing their store all
the time they live. They pass It
on to the outside world; sometimes
directly as by teaching; oftener just
through personal contact; by the
quickening impulse which a cultur
ed man lias on those he runs!
shoulders with or even touches
passing.
Such boys are now flocking bark
to colleges and the colleges are the
?letter for them, just as the world
will be better when they get In'o
the current of Its dally life. They
make good men and good citizens.
If all college life were of their mak-|
ing. there would be no criticism of
it; only praise and thanksgiving. ~
