Three Jobs for One Young Man Dean Woods of tin- Minnesota State Agricultural college will turn out a fine lot of scientific farmers in his graduating, class next month. He has applications for three times as many young men as he has in his graduating class. Every one of the present class has. therefore, had the choice of at least three job# pav ing from $1,200 to $1,500 per year to start with. The graduates from the law anil medical schools have long lean \ ears ahead of them. The "an' graduate not only starts with a g»*>d salary, hut his work will keep him out doors where there is health and long life. Over on the girls' side in this year's gr. (dating class at Minnesota state the story is about the same. Almost every girl in the domestic science division has secured a |H»sition at from $"<lO to $1,200 per year, while the girls who have Studied the "ologies" will get mighty little except their di plomas. Hoys and girls who arc going to start a college course j next fail will do well to think these facts over.

O God, since Thou hast laid the little children into our arms m utter helplessness, with no protection save our love, we pray that the sweet appeal of their baby hands may not be in vain. l,et no innocent life in our city be quenched again in useless pain through our ignorance and Mn. May we who are mothers or father* >>cck eagerly to join wisdom to our love. Ics' love itself l»e deadly when ungtiidcd by knowl edge. Bless the doctors and nurses, and all the friends of men. who are giving of their *kill and devotion to the care of our children. If there are any who were kissed by love in their own infuno. but who ha\c no child to whom they may give as they ha\e received, grant thein such la/genes* of sympathy that they may rejoice to pay their debt in full to all children who have need of them. Forgive us, our Father, for the heartlessnes* of the past. Grant us great tenderness for all babte* who suffer, and a growing sense of the divine mystery that is brooding in the soul of every child.
