SPECIAL COURSES FOR TEACHERS OF AGRI CULTURE. interest In order in to promote agricultural education and to assist in the preparation of special teach ers of agriculture for high schools, a special course of one year in agri culture has been authorized, open to persons w ho are graduates of State Normals in the life courses, also of recognized colleges, and w ho have had two or more years, experience in teaching. T he work will consist of subjects selected from the regular, technical, agricultural work of the four-year college course and credit will be given for the work. If the student desires to remain in the institution longer than one year, these credits may be used toward securing a degree later. All students entering this special course will be required least twenty-five credits each term from technical subjects and the regular regular the they will the the subjects in classes, taking .same manner and at the same time as the regular students. T he class ifying officer will guide the students in selecting the technical work. to elect at enter Teachers of agriculture in second ary schools should have academic preparation equal to the high school this teachers of other subjects and i= the reason for nlaring the en trance requirements as stated above.

M. C. A. in Roscoe Gilmore Stott, at union meeting Sunday evening, talked on " T he Biggest J ob the W o r l d ." T h is so-called job, so-called because a job is something we do not care particularly about, comes from the text, " Am I my brother's k e e p e r ?" " T he carrying out of this text as He wishes," said Mr. Stott, "is the one biggest job in the world. We are too prone to live within ourselves and to disregard the virtues of others, and the responsibilities which we bear towards them. A good keeper will not hold himself up as a model and condemn others, will not be snobbish, will not prove dishonest, and will not be eager to find flaws with those around him. He will be a democrat and an optomist and will be building up, not tearing down all the time." T h e se kind of talks are what we need more of at M. A. C. T h ey make us think, and I am sure that every one who heard the talk went away with a feeling of greater towards his brother. responsibility T h u r s d ay night the Y. M. C. A. was led by R. G. Crane. His sub ject, " T he Relation of Mystery to Religion," was discussed with much interest. MAY F E S T I V AL T WO CONCERTS F R I D A Y, MAY 27th F A U ST M. A. C.
