Mr. Walter H.

HOW A UNIVERSITY MAN "MADE GOOD:"
The Oxford Magazine, in an ar- ticle claims that the university man is well fitted for a business career because "whereas the young anan trained in the business, sees no farther than his deak, the univers ity man has been taught to look about him."
It supports its claim with the following story, "One of the more lackadaisical of undergraduates, with plenty of brains and still more | of indolence, went last year into. a railway company-say the Great Western.
"He was told by the company that he must get business experience by starting at the bottom, and was DC- cordingly sent off as a porter and later as a booking clerk. After a time this became intolerable to him and he threw up the job.
