It requires a very high grade of mental and moral power to do without such helps, and it may be that you are not strong enough to succeed without them;  I do not know your possibilities yet, Gilbert, and neither do you know them yourself!"

warning look stopped any comment. Julia took up arms for her cousin. "We ought to go without everything for the sake of sending Gilbert to college," she said. "Gladys Ferguson doesn't know a single boy who isn't going to Harvard or Yale." "If a boy of good family and good breeding cannot make friends by his own personality and his own qualities of mind and character, I should think he would better go without them," said Gilbert's mother casually. "Don't you believe in a college education, mother?" inquired Gilbert in an astonished tone. "Certainly! Why else should we have made sacrifices to send you? To begin with, it is much simpler and easier to be educated in college. You have a thousand helps and encouragements that other fellows have to get as they may. The paths are all made straight for the students. A stupid boy, or one with small industry or little originality, must have _something_ drummed into him in four years, with all the splendid teaching energy that the colleges employ.
