to go out annually, it is clear that the Uni-
versity school will either be annihilated
or will be compelled to adopt the same sys-
tem. Such a necessity is [deprecated?] or

cal honors, and to the school itself.

Lastly, it is not worthy of inquiry whe-

ional education gratis! Professional school,
like other places for the highest education, may
very well be so aided by private or by State [liber-]
[tality] as to bring the cost of the institution
which they give within the [work?] of the bulk
of those who by capacity, energy and previous
training are likely to profit by the education
[received?]; but to make them [free?] to all is to
impose a burden on the many, in order to
confer a very doubtful benefit upon the few.
