Especially noteworthy is the complete readjustment of courses and methods of instruc- tion which have been made by American colleges to meet the educational needs created by the great war. These admirable readustments to meet the needs of the hour clearly afford every individual the opportunity to develop through well-directed systematic study. With such excellent opportunities afforded, the public prop- erly expects that every individual will make the most "bene- ficial use" of his time. Indeed it may well be said that "bene- ficial use" of time is the "basis, the measure and the limit" of educational development, just as "beneficial use" of water has been declared to be "the basis, the measure and the limit" of rights to its continued use. But simply finding the Place where irrigation water, or an individual's time, may be "beneficially used" is not enough to insure permanent Progress. That Perseverance, the fourth of the five P's, is also vitally necessary to success will appear in the following number of the Era. • : ' B i H|;Hf L iCSiS3r ri «^v w'*** 1 ?»jt Wwkf'" ' w€ J«C^ ' -. 1 Photograph from Underwood and Underwood, N.
