to know whence man has come as well as whither he is to go. The knowledge of primitive man and primitive society, gained by an extensive study of anthropology and sociology, should correct this disproportion. Let the theological student also become famaliar with scientific methods of treating crime and bestowing charity. Then the ministry will be entered as a field of definite, active usefulness when scientific plans of reform are to be systematically carried out.

If a fuller sympathy between church and science might thus be developed each would be strengthened. Scientific research would be pursued with the ardor which the Christian religion inspires, and the church would receive new life and vigor.

Good Advice.
Iowa State University has received a donation of several thousand dollars from the late Gov. Kirkwood. The late William Reickoff also bequeaths $35,000 to that institution. The colleges of the West seem to be having their turn in receiving magnificent bequeaths.

Hazing seems to be going out of date, and this means a great step forward in college circles. The students of Princeton have unanimously agreed to stop the practice of hazing, and the students of Northwestern University, at Evanston, Illinois, must sign a pledge upon entering the college that they will not participate in the practice of hazing.
