This man will not worship at the shrine of birth, breeding, or refinement, but he will render hearty homage to an energetic worker, an able leader, a manly man. Before the end of his course he will probably appreciate the value of literary pursuits, and even if he does not devote himself assiduously to the task of remedying his own deficiencies in this department, he is scarcely...

From the interest which the announcement...
