On the economic side it would therefore appear that millions
of dollars nre being wasted annually in forcing on college students
an education which they are unable to assimilate. Worse still,
however, are the discouragement and hopelessness which come on
many a young man when he sees himself a failure where others
are successful.' The consequent mortification and depression' -of-'

of other abilities which nature gave him and which, if applied
wisely and under pioper guidance in the right direction, would

Town Pride
Tljere Is in many towns a conflict between people whose first
, thought is to make money, and those whose first thought is to
make an attractive town. The first named people are constantly
seeing chances to make money through some kind of development
enterprise. If such promoters lack good taste, they are apt to cut
up real estate in an undesirable way, or erect flimsy looking dwell
ings, put up unsuitable business buildings or erect them in places
where they injure the looks of the town. They may sincerely he
. lieve their projects help the town grow and are commendable.
' These people aie apt to show enteipiise, and if they only had
. more sense of fitness and taste, they would do a lot of good. Tn
