A Night School

It is a startling fact tliat only one bo}' in four hundred is in school at the age of 18. Some have dropped out through lack of interest. More have been obliged to give up their hopes for au education on account of the lack of money and the constant struggle for life in their homes. Xot a few of these youngmen could now command better positions and larger salaries if they had the necessary education. But how and where can tliey get it? Many of them could not afford to stop work to attend school even for a few montlis, nor haye they the money laid by to defray the necessary expenses. Alive to this great need, the Young Men's Christian Association has taken a bold step forward to flll the gap. Without the necessity of a young man's giving up bis employment or of having a fair-sized bank account, it proposes to offer him the advantages ot' a thorough and practical business education under the most competent instruction to be obtained in a University town for au astonishingly low figure. This is to be a permanent institution. It is backed by the most snccessful business men of the city. It will be a power in the community for developing intelligent, patriotic citizens and honest, thoroughgoing business men. Much praise is due the Education al Committee, composed of Geo. L. Moore, L. H. Clement, and Geo. H. Pond, for their untiring efforts in securing a corps of the very best of instructora, and in being able to offer courses of such exceptional and practical value. The following is a list of the instructora, the courses offered, and the time required for each : BUSINESS TRAINING COURSE. Book-keeping, 25 lessons, 1 hour each once a week. D. W.
