FCRESTRY AS A PROFESSION Of all the professions, old and new, that are in the reach of students of ordinary cirf cumstance, I think. Forestry is -the best. It is no doubt the most healthy, because it keeps one out of doors and gives the benefit of observing nature as it reallyfis and not as' it is written about. This business of Forestry is also very profitable' althijugh it'is only a newly developed industry. A ,Forestry started .in ,the time of President Roosevelt, who advocated a policy known as Conservation. This provided for the pref serving-'of large tracts :of woodland which were seemingly going to waste. So the pros fessionxof Forestry was, instituted. At 'first it applied only to general Fdrestry, which was merely the taking care ofuthe tracts, planting new trees and seeing that no lumf ber was needlessly wasted: now the term has a much larger scope. A young man may spef cfalize in the making of pulp and paper, landscape gardening or in any other of the manylines whichare giyen, inhcollege. , Someone may argue that.,this'1ine .is too neyg and that it .could -not be every worth while -because, offthat fact. This factis muah in its favor. Being a new profession, there are not many people in it and therefore there are a great number of openings for the young man who has the necessary education to fill them. The Government also offers many op' portunities to young men to 'take positions as managers of parks in large cities or.on their extensive tracts of woodlands' in-the west. Then when -a person arrives in the college he is advised as to which particular line he is interested in. The work at college is so enjoyable and practical that I am sure every real boywould like it. While at college, the young man- is sent to nu-merous camps ,at which he attains the experience to become an experienced Forester. Coming to the conclusion that Forestry is the most healthy of all professions and that there are a great many openings and that it is progressive, how' can any one doubt that it is a business worthwhile entering uponj - V- I Albert Langworthy ' HORTICULTURE A person entering' the florist business should make out very well. Itsis a necessary profession, and, .when Once started should prove. quite remunerative. Although very few greenhouse ownersgare college graduates, one who has completed a college, course in floriculture has a great, advantage over,-the person who starts at thenbottom and gets the experience but very little theory.. It is a much easier matter to make a suc' cess of a greenhouse after having acquired the theory in college because a great amount of' actual work goes along with it in most universities. , E h I K , As for the benefits, one is out in the open most of the time and is not confined in ,ii stuffy office. This will 'help to keep a per' son in good physical Condition. Working around flowers appeals to a per' son's. sense of beauty,.2LI1d One is never so hippy as 'when puttering around in the earth. Vernon Church ' ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING- A If a gioungsman is mechanically inclinedi he should analyse hrhisi inclination' and dis' cover, if possible, just what lineiof niechaiiif cal work he wishes to do, and the possibilf ties of a future in that line. ' ' If he cannot decide between several lines, which include electricity, it would be well for himi to choose electrical engineering. The possibilities for a'man with an electrif cali-education is almost unlimited. Today needs are changing rapidly to electric ma' chines and instruments. In the household we find the electric radio, fan, iron and many cooking utensils. 'In the 'Vehicles' industry, some trucks and autbmobileisf for light powered traveling are being powered by electric motors. The above named electrical machines and instruments are not foolfproof and are not IOOQQ perfect, so there is a big demand for men who understand electricity, and -those who are willing to learn.
