ent through Bowdoin by this
year's graduating class of that college; while this year's class
of Colby has promised to send another Good Will boy through that
university.

Many of the boys don't want to go to college, but are very anxious
to learn trades. The present facilities for teaching them are two
carpenter benches and a few tools, all huddled into one little
room in the old farm-house. Now don't you think this is a splendid
charity, and that those boys need that manual training-school, and
that it is a fine thing for us to work for? I do; though I must
confess that I wasn't very greatly interested before I went there.
But that was because I didn't know about it, and the reason the
school building that we promised isn't occupying the lovely site
set apart for it is because you haven't really known about it. But
now you know about it, for I have been there and have told you
something of what I saw; and I feel certain that you will believe
that all I have said is true. So now we will go to work and build
that school, won't we? Do you know that even five cents apiece
from each Knight and Lady of the Round Table would do it? Who will
follow me if I head a--let me say, ten-cent subscription list for
the GOOD WILL FARM INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL? I am sure every member of
all the "K. M." chapters will, and I am almost certain that every
member of our splendid order of modern chivalry will. At any rate,
I am going to try it, and shall enclose a dime in this very letter
to Messrs. Harper & Bros. Next summer I want to go again to GOOD
WILL FARM; but I shall not unless that school building is ready
for dedication. In the mean time, I remain to all the Knights and
Ladies of the Round Table, their loving friend and fellow-member,

KIRK MUNROE.

Should one ask which has been the most heroic age of the world we
believe that the right answer would be "the nineteenth century." In past
centuries a few were imbued with the spirit of self-sacrifice. To-day
this spirit is manifest in nearly every life. Everybody seems to be
trying to help somebody else--to lift those just below them to a higher
plane of living and of thinking. It is said that the oldest book in
existence is one devoted to a harangue on the evils of the time, and a
longing for the good old times. Doubtles
