...elements which may bulk larger than economic gain alone. Personal abilities and social-utility considerations--as is usually true of medical, and divinity students--may count for a great deal more, but however much a man may be compounded of ideals, the practical aspects have some appeal, particularly when account is taken of the sacrifices often involved.
