lly thoso who havo watched tho rapid
growth of tho colleges and universities
feara are often expressed that pergonal
contact between president and students,
Mwccn professors and pupils, will bo
lost, If it has not been lost already-; and
that so tho best part of a college edu
cation will bo forfeited. Tho donulte
charge, by a writer In a rocent number
of tho Outlook, that In ono college at
least this condition has already come to
pass, brought out some Interesting cor
respondent. Ono woman mentions a
professor who not only know all "his
boys" while they were under his ln
structlou nnd helped them by personal
udvlco and friendly social Intercourse,
but has kept In touch with overy ono
of theui sluco they ' wcro graduated.
Ones a year he sends them all a letter,
and nearly all of them reply. The at
mospbero Is almost llko that of one
great family. Tho misfortune of ono
Is tho concern of all, and all help to
repair It. Other correspondents clto
other colleges and other men to show
that Intercourse between faculty and
students Is growing more Intlmato In
stead of more remote; nnd no ono has
considered It necessary to cite for
overy one knows tho definite system
which most of the colleges have for
bringing all tho students under the di
rect personal Influenco of some of tho
professors or other Instructors. Candid
graduates of forty or fifty years ago,
If they are familiar with present col
lege conditions, nearly always admit
that the relations to-day aro simpler
and more familiar. Tho old-tlmo pro
fessor, however beneficent his Influ
ence, was too often a man of nustero
dignity, which mado him unapproach
able. His modern representative may
be regarded with less awo, but not
with less affection. Ono thing must be
remembered : It takes two to form n
friendship as well as to mako a quar
rel. Tho student must meet advances
half-way. If be does, thcro Is llttlo
danger In any college, largo or small,
that ho will go through tho course
friendless or without tho helpful Influ
enco of closo contact and acquaintance
with "praeses et professorcs."
At Intervals of a few years we hear
that England Is scraping tho bottom of
her coal mines and that In a relatively
shyt time her fuel supply will bo ex
hausted nnd sho will havo to go out of
tho manufacturing business. Still, Ku
ffinnil continues to mtno coal In suffi
cient quantity for her needs. Lately
however, tho nronhots havo been In
sistent In their auguries of woe, and
they have asserted that this time thore
can bo no mistake. Tho exhaustion of
tho English coal supply Is In sight.
Provldenco appears still to temper the
wind to tho shtvn lamb, however, for
coincident with thoso gloomy outgiving
comes tho statement Hint new coul
beds havo been discovered noar Dovir
whoso valun Is money Is estimated at
$5,000,000,000. leading geologists ay
that tho discovery la tho most Import

England Is granted a rosplto. Her man
ufactures will not beenmo extinct for
lack of fuel not for a while, at least
Still, tho prophets of evil continue to
prophesy. They calculate that not only
tho coal supply of England but of the
wholo world must within a certain time
bo exhausted and they demand to know
what will becomo f humanity then.
The question Is interesting, but hardly
of contemporary Importance. The anx

hold the samo opinion with respect to
