Courier :- I noticed in your last ssue the statement that Sec'y Wade is continually making improvements about ;he campus, and quite agree with you. i 1 1 1 allow us to make a suggestion. The old boiler house with its ash henp is not a pleasant view frotn State st. Would t not be au improvement, to the eye ut east, to shut both ofl by lattice work or omething of the sort? In this conuection allow us to state also bat the water closet west of tliis boiler xm.se is also quite public to passen ly on he walks on either eide. It ought to be made a little loss con:picuoud to the naked eve by some similar arrangement. Yours, übseuvkk. In a recent issue of the Üatholic Home s a fine notice of a numberof papers preared by pupils of Prof. Maurice D. Sulivan, S. J., of St. Ignatius College, Chicago, (wlio by the way received bis early education here ï ri Ann Arbor, graduuting 'rom our high school.) The subject discussed whs "Chicago's Site a Coval Heef and the Grouud swept by a Glacier," and hey ssemed to prove tlieir ëtatemeut. l'he article says . " Prof. Maurice D. Sullivaii is to be felicitated on the high degree of proticiency, both theoretlcal and practical, attaiued by hia DupiU." "As I was riding out in tlie country a few miles the other day,1' said a prominent Ann Arbor business miin, " I could nut help but notice the utter recklessness of sonie farmers. I went past two places nrbere 1 saw mowers and reapers, evidently new, standing out doors without any covering to protect theni from the elementa. Tlie loss to these farmers on these machines alouewill be considerable. On one of these same farms I noticcd a plow standing in the furrow just wuere it was used last f all. Near by was an expei)8ive harrow restlng wlth its teeth in the solí, and so could be found nearly all the farm tools, going to ruin tor want of a little care. And yut these two farmers come to town and take on terribly because of the hard time?, and wonder why Miey do not prosper. They lay their lack of success at the door of Providence, they think the tarifl" is to blame, and conjure u all sort of reasong, bui ntver for one minute tliink of the rlght cause. If any oue would sujigest to them that a little care on their part would materially help them, they would Hy mad in a minute. Such men are the dlscontented ones who are always liowliax Tor free trade or a change in the government, in the hope of bettering their fortunes."
