Scholarship record at the University of
Washington for the semester just Mu
lshed was higher than during the first
Dniester of the iast college year, ac-
cording to th statistics given out at
! the recorder's office.
Although the faculty, with the open
ing of the school term, raised the scho
lastic standing: in every branch of
work, the statistics shows that the un-
dergTaduates have raised the scholar
ship record above" that of any year
since the regular collegiate require
ments were adopted at Washington.
One reason advanced for the better
ment of scholastic standing is that stu
dents who are better equipped to carry
the college academic work have been
brought to the university by the rais
ing of requirements. It Is announced
that even more rigid enforcement of
the scholastic requirements for en
trance Is contemplated for next year.
Harvard University.
In President Iowell's annual report
he suggests the increase of the tuition
fees. He says In his report:
"We are faced with the alternative
of increasing our income, or of cutting
down Instruction severely, which would
be most unfortunate. In 1869 it was
raised from $1J4 to $150; it .has not
been raised since that time, although
prices have increased and the purchas
ing power of money has declined . . .
especially within the last few years.
Other colleges and universities have in
creased their tuition fees, until our
charges. Instead of being distinctly
higher than in almost all other institu
tions are on the level with those of the
smaller endowed colleges, and are on
the whole lower than those of the larg
er institutions not supported by the
state."
In another part of his report he men
tions that the age of the average stu
dent entering college Is too great. He
thinks that the time wasted could bo
saved in the college before coming to
college. He stated that of the men ad
mitted to the freshman class the aver
age was 18 years, while of the men
rejected the average was 19 years.
The Pasteur medal to bo awarded
this year, which was thought to be lost
In transit from Franco, has finally been
located there, and is now on its way to
Harvard. This valuable prize is the
one given annually by Baron Pierre de
Coubertin to the winner of a debate on
some subject drawn from French pol
itics. Now that the medal has been lo
cated, the debate has been announced
for some time In March.
Arrangements have been made for
"the second competitive glee club
meet" between the Harvard, Columbia.
Dartmouth and Pennsylvania Glee

Yale University.
The "Tale Review" has started a
campaign by way of an appeal to the

5000 to 10,000 subscribers. To date a

fund of $100,000.
New York University.
The executive committee of the coun
cil of New Tork university has adopted
the following recommendations of the
faculties of the College of Arts and
the School of Applied Science, with re
gard to ethical and religious training:
"Daily attendance at the uhiversitv
chapel exercises is required of all the
student body at the Heights, with the
exception of seniors who are taking the
full first year work in one of the uni
versity's downtown schools, and such
other students as elect the substitu
tional work defined below. A student
is allowed 14 absences from chapel
during any one terra. As often as his
absence shall equal 15 in number the
student shall be required to submit
within three weeks of the time of as
signment of a subject an original eth
ical theme of not less than 1800 words
upon a subject assigned by the dean of
his respective school, touching japon
morals or religion. These themes are
carefully graded and marked on the
same basis as work covered by a class
room attendance of one hour daily for
one term. A fee of $2.50 will also be
assessed against the delinquent- stu
dent." Technology.
With the opening of the second sem
ester of the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, there was established what
is termed the Rochester experiment," a
new means whereby the alumni can b
of service to the students. What is
new about the experiment is the detail
ing of one of the instructing staff, and
more, if needed, to meet the students
every day to discuss with them what
ever may be difficult to them in their
studies.
The Technology club of Rochester,
after correspondence with President
Maclaurin, decided that the great lack
of the day was a means for the student
to get informally and outside of the
classroom the answer to questions that
puzzle him.
Dartmouth College.
A new series of "After Supper" talks,

Lawyer; WhatHe
Should Be
By Edward W. Hope Ph. D.
Dr. Edward W. Hope, head of the
campus law school of the state univer
sity, at Eugene, Is a stickler for higher
ideals in the profession of law, one
step forward which he says In the ac
companying article, is a much higher
standard in many American law
schools. In this article Dr. Hope Is un
sparing of the shyster, whom he de
scribes as "the pitiful result" of no
preparation before the law school and
poor preparation in it. "There are too
many 'attorneys-at-law' and not enough
good lawyers," he says. Dr. Hone is a
holder of degrees from Pennsylvania,
Stanford and Johns Hopkins, and has
been a graduate student at Berlin and
Munich.
University of Oregon, Eugene. Or.,
Feb. 20. No one knows better than the
lawyer who lias assayed to break into
practice that the Irgal profession tt
overcrowded. No one knows better
than the good lawyer that a large per
centage of so-called "attorneys" ought
to be in almost any other business not
only for their own health, but for the
public weal. In fact, much of the pub
lic criticism that is directed against
the "Law" in these latter days a greet
deal of It cheap and unjustified, and
proceeding from ignorance would be
quite justified If directed against those
multitudinous ones who, with a knowl
edge thereof scarcely elementary, as
sume to speak for the law.
The legal profession, even more than
others, has been wooed and won of late
by any American citizen who had the
cheek to "scrape an acquaintance" with
the pitiful result that we now have as
"attorneys and counsellors at law,"
mere beardless youths, graduates of
grammar schools, without any general
culture, without legal knowledge, with
out experience of life, and without any
ability for the profession they have
chosen. Mushroom law schools turn
them out by the hundreds every year to
sink or swim. Naturally, ' many of
them turn into the devious by-ways of
the practice in order to sustain them
selves, and thus increase the disrespect
which a large part of the public feel
for the law.
The sole reason many of them have
for choosing the law Is to make money.
With them t!i law is a business, not a
noble and honored profession. For
proof of this you can see these "rising
young attorneys" Joining wealthy
churches for business, hanging around
barrooms, police courts, jails, entering
clubs and lodges, scanning the obitu
ary columns of newspapers, chasing
ambulances, and doing many other like
things for (to use a Miltonlc expres
sion) their "bellies' sake." There are
too many "attorneys-at-law," but there
are not enough good lawyers.
Higher Standards Urged.
What is the cure for these admitted
facts? One far-reaching answer at
least is higher moral and intellectual
requirements for entrance Into and
graduatiqn from our law schools, and a
far4 higher standard for our state bar
examinations. Until this last year Ore

ination about as poor as any state In
the union. It Is encourgtng to notice,
however, that, beginning with last year,
the requirements, as shown In the ques
tions asked, have been markedly stif
fened. In the case of those who have
passed the recent tests, there Is at least
some prima facie evidence of thlr pos
sessing the qualifications a lawyer
should start with. It is to be hoped
that this good work will go on, anj
that these tests will be made so rigid
and exacting that no one who has not
spent a? studious three years In a thor

training of at least two years in7 col
lege (or its equivalent in exceptional
cases) can stand much chance of pass

The saying is all too frequent among
law students in many of our states
that the state bar examination can eas

year in law school. And the pity of It
Is 'tis true. It is done bj' large num

of our Anglo-American law, with the

will present to them. "Training and
knowledge, the means and the end of
legal study, go hand in hand." To be
more specific: personally, I am of the
firm opinion that the "Case System,'1
Initiated by Langdell, and now used by
nearly all the great modern law schools
in "America, is the only system by
which to train lawyers. The class pre
pares, say, a dozen cases. Each man Is
called upon to state all the material
facts of the case, and the question of
law that emerged from tliees facts, and
is before the court. He then follows
the court's argument through to th
