Excerpt from Letters From a Father to His Son Entering College Parts of the letters that make up this little book were read to my own college boys at the opening of a college year. They represent somewhat, but of course only a bit, of what I believe many a father would like to say to his own son, - as I to mine, - when he is entering the most important year of his college life the Freshman. Those who first heard them, even though obliged to hear, -seemed to suffer them gladly. They are, therefore, brought to gether, and sent out to fathers and to sons, and with a peculiar feeling of sympathy for both the parent and the boy at one of the crises of the life of each.
