LAND AHEAD

The approaching week-end will bring Preparatory School delegates to a conference engineered by the Phillips Brooks House in an effort to show the neophytes what college is all about. For long years the University has doubtless appeared dim and distant, and the program will bring the gathering in direct contact with reality.

The visit of the young men should give them a definite concept toward which their school work is tending. So far entrance examinations have not proved an adequate incentive to preparation which will place the prospective freshmen in a position to fit in directly with a higher system of learning. The best result which the conference could achieve would be to send the delegates back with a more mature outlook toward problems which they will be expected to face in the next four years.
