(;o TO WORK.
Go to work! Knowledge does not come from impressive
books, but from the principle of working out these theo
retical truths in actual practice.
The world is overpopulated with people who work hard
er killing time than they would have to work if they used
time intelligently. The efforts of such people are reminis
cent of the old horse once used in the brickyards to mill
the clay. Hound and round the circle he went, jrettinu;
nowhere. A merry-go-round is a rollicking sport for chil
dren, but when adults do a lot of traveling th'ey like to
feel that they have been somewhere.
Do not wait for something to turn up and happen. Mako
things happen. The precious gift of the gods is initiative
the ability to start something and keep it going. In tho
business world this gift commands the highest wage. T.i

spirit of man is a benefactor.
Everywhere today the call is for the man who can mako
himself busy in new ways to reach old ends. The burden
of civilization is he who means well, but means well feebly.

ENTKUiXf; hk;h school.
Thousands of young nun and young women (they aren't
boys and girls after they get out of the grades) are entei
ing high school this year, and if they arc the right kind
of young people they will get the right kind of a thrill
from this experience.
Entering high school is an epochal event in the life of
anyone who is blessed with the opportunity. Most students
never get beyond the graduation period in the high schools.
After that they cither go to work or loaf or do a littlo
of each.
A great many young people who enter high school never
graduate, which is a very sad mistake for them to make,
and a still graver mistake on the part of the parents, pro
viding the hitter deliberately give their consent to a child
leaving high school without graduating, when it is not
necessary.
The first day in high school marks the beginning of
an important event in the life of the young man or young
woman who enjoys the privilege of acquiring this important
education.
There will come a time in the history of this country
(and it is approaching rapidly nowadays), when a young
person without a high school diploma is going to find
things pretty hard in this life. For education is the step
ping stone to success and independence and without it 'all
is slavish labor and interminable discouragement. Those
who enter upon high school life September II are to bo
congratulated. They will inarch over a royal load and
pave their own life's highway so that progress v ill be
smooth and sure.
