He spoke upon the cardinal virtue of having a forgiving nature. He used Lincoln's kind treatment of his enemy Stanton to illustrate his remarks. One of the requisites for success in business or public life is to be able to forget personal injuries and to stifle vindicative feelings.

SENIORS MUST TAKE FINALS
The faculty have heard the cry of the seniors from afar off, they have paused to listen, and then have shouted back to the hard worked students: "Go on, we know you not," In plain American, the senior petition to be allowed immunity from final quizzes has been turned down by the powers that be. A reporter of the Weekly was informed that the faculty never stuttered when they refused to listen to the "wise ones" prayer.
The faculty in this action is acting consciously and in a manner which they consider to the best ultimate interests of the senior class. If asked they would probably say like the seniors papas after a little slipper scance: "My boy this hurts me worse than it does you."
And the seniors like they did in their long past youth - think otherwise.

INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS.
From California has come news of 'practical' education carried out to its fullest extent A noted educational and practical farmer, Judge Shields of Sacramento, in an address at the University of California, advocated the establishment of agricultural high schools throughout the state. These schools will be organized as 'feeders' to the university and probably affiliated with it. Four practical courses as laid out by Mr. Shields, include darying, fruit raising, irrigation and animal industry. The establishment of farms for the agricultural high schools and colleges was also advocated. Judge Shields lamented the fact that so many college graduates go into theatrical, or at least impractical professions, seeing in this tendency a peril to future agricultural pursuits.
Nobert Weiner, a nine-year-old son of Prof. Lee Weiner of Harvard, is ready to enter Harvard college. This youthful prodigy is already master of several of the dead languages, higher mathematics and the sciences. He is the youngest student ever fitted for entrance to the college. He says it is a pleasure to study and make chemical tests in a laboratory built for him. Trouble with his eyes has forced cessation of reading for the present, but his mother reads to him an hour each day except Saturday, which is his vacation.
The students of the University of California are to be protected against unhealthful boarding houses by the faculty. The academic council passed a resolution providing that a list of sanitary boarding houses be kept in the recorder's office for the use of the students. To obtain a place upon the list the keeper of a boarding house must submit to an inspection of his premises and of the quality of food furnished his boarders. If the conditions are found satisfactory the house will be recommended to students as a proper place to live in.
A filter plant with a capacity of 500,000 gallons of pure water per day has been installed at Cornell University. Cornell has had so much trouble with typhoid on the campus that the authorities have determined to put a stop to it at any cost.
Andrew Carnegie came to the rescue with $45,000. So efficient is the great plant that 99.97 per cent of bacteria are removed as the water passes through. The plant has been designed, and much of it built by Cornell men.
The senior class of Cornell has decided to present to the university as its class memorial the sum of $10,000 to be turned over to the treasury at the expiration of ten years. This sum will be raised among the individual members of the class by a method of subscription, each member of the class pledging himself to pay annually to the life secretary of the organization $250.
The University of Michigan is publishing a song book of distinctly Michigan songs. The publication is under the charge of the University school of music and the alumni association.
