104 STATE COLLEGE OF KENTUCKY.
MANUAL LABOR.
The work necessary for carrying on the agricultural and horticultural
operations of the College is done by the students, and is paid for at rates
varying from six to ten cents per hour. lts design is two-fold : to put ‘
in practice the instruction received in the class·room, and to assist
students who are in need of money. The experience of this College is
that of Agricultural Colleges generally—that compensated labor is not
remunerative to the College.
The College assumes no oblzgation to furnish students an opportnniyr to lahorfor
compensation.
Students are paid monthly for the service rendered, and apply the
money as they see proper.
No student, however, shonlcl come to this College expecting to maintazn himsey
exc/uszivebw ly compensated labor. Af least se·veny·f·ve dollars per annum, exclaszne
of his earnings while here, should he at the command of every student who wishes to
am/l himsey of the advantages of the system of compensated labor.
CERTIFICATES OF CHARACTER.
All applicants for admission into any class of the College or Acad-
emy must bring satisfactory testimonials of good moral character.
I THE MONITRESS.

exclusive use a large and well—appointed study-room. Here, while they
are not engaged in the class-rooms or in the chapel, they are under the
constant and strict supervision of the Monitress, Mrs. Blackburn, who
has been long connected with the College and is well qualifxed for her
duties.
