To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We cannot but believe that these young men would resort to the same means of help- ing themselves forward, if those means were to present to their Hosted by Google 14 amDition the same attractions. But the same attractions do not exist. A single one of our Western States has no less than nine universities and thirty-three colleges. Forty-two universities and colleges in a single state are not only sure to be insignificant, but, what is only less unfortunate, are sure to be thought insignificant.... When the popular imagination attaches to the college but little importance, the ambitious youth is likely to eschew the college, and betake himself at once to the more attractive experience of the bar and the political arena.
Now this is not a mere picture of the fancy; it is a repre- sentation which is seen from such statistics as have been accu- mulated to be absolutely true to the life. In the professions (with the possible exception ol the clerical) and in positions of high political trust, the proportion of college bred men is consid- erably less than it was in the early years of this century.
