Yes, Lysander, we are glad to know you have an ambition to go to college and be somebody. The boy who has no ambition in that direction as a rule is not much good on general principles.

It is quite possible that some fellow who spends his time feeding eager-faced swine while you are wrestling with Greek roots and Latin hexameters will have more force and effect in running the politics of his country twenty years from now than you, but he will envy you the advantages of an education after all.

They want to follow some noble profession, such as the law, but the noble profession is filled with men who have more calls from the man who wants to collect the office rent than they have from clients. And some of these men were just as bright and ambitious when
