THE COLLEGE RECORD. 11 KKUKA COLLEGE. TJOW many times we have heard the Psalmist's remark - ■ - - changed to express the thought of some enthusiast re- garding the location of Keuka College, Beautiful for situation is Keuka College. It is a most attractive place, and is rapidly becoming a popu- lar summer resort, as well as a very desirable center for the education of young men and women who in all probability would be denied the privileges of higher education were it not for the opportunities here given. Dean Churchill has issued a folder containing the following statement : Keuka College and Institute is for those who have $190, or even a little less, for a year's school. When you can get a college education at a cost of $800 it will pay you to borrow the money, if necessary. By comparing the earnings of edu- cated and of uneducated men in Massachusetts, the cash value of every day in upper schools is found to be $10. A day at • Keuka College costs about $1.00. The profit is about 900 per cent. Add to this the profit in character and possibilities and I am sure you will think more seriously of Keuka College than ever before as a place to educate young people of limited means. But not only is the College a place for the class just men- tioned, but a most wholesome place for young people of all classes, irrespective of means or intellectual qualifications, ex- cept that they be prepared to do academic work. Parents and guardians, who are concerned about the relig- ious life of their children and wards, should write the College and ascertain what is now being done, from the Christian standpoint, to interest and direct the thought of all who attend school here. A special Bible department, under the management and in- struction of Mrs. E. C. McPherson, A. B., is organized, and begins its work with the opening of the winter term.
