U«I« OF A COLLEGE.
TOO LATE.
Whaterer critics may say to the con-
trary. It never was and probably never
will be the purpose of the standard
college to train young men for busi-
ness, says Boston Globe. Colleges do
not even train men for the profes-
sions. There are professional schools
for that purpose, and In tho days when
no such scnools existed medicine was
taught in the offices of physicians and
law In the offices of lawyers. Just as
business was and still Is taught In
places of business. Colleges were not '
Instituted to make physicians ncr to
make lawyers. Neither were they in-
stituted to train men for business.
