nes Is a chief end of man, then thn
Job that does not Irk is worth the ef
fort. The Investigation of comparative
waxes as undertaken on a pre nr
husia but the nureaa as that the
proportion still holds truo. Boys who
left school at fourteen on an average
received M a week, which Increased
to 17 a week at IS. The boy who re
mained in school until ho was 18
started at an average wage of 10.
At 20 wages were $9.60 and $15 re
spectively. At 25 their total wage
had been $5112.50 and $7337.60 re-
' speotively.
i Th boys who go to work at the
! earlier age seldom get Jobs where
'there are desirable chances of ad
vancement. This-is another prime
'difference In favor of higher educa
tion. The statistic are particularly
timely as vacation approaches and
many boys are debating whether they
will leave school permanently or not.

LAYING I P $IH.noO JN FOVR

Figures compiled by the federal
bureau of education put the case, for
better education of youths in the
strongest posible light when they
show that, in an average of a large
number of young men at 25, those
who had remained in school until
they were IS were receiving $949 a
year more than those who left school
at 14. The inference is plain. Nine
hundred dolars a year being equiva
lent to 5 per cent interest on $18,000
he sifilitinnal four vears of schooling
Is shown to have produced precisely
the same result as if the young man
bad laid up $18,000 in that length of
time.
Now $18,000 even in these times Is
a goodly sum, and one easily visual
ized. Moreover,-tucked away In the
brain .of its possessor, it is secure
against the blandishments of oil stock
promoters and all gentry who offr
get-rich-quick oportunities iu ex
change for liberty bonds. It is us
permanent as an annuity in a sound
company, and as satisfying as money
In the bank. The bureau tafce3 no
cote of a further fact which deserves
mention. " This is that the character
of the employment of the higher paid
young man is far more likel" to be
congenial and if attainment of happi-

Never In the history of southern

brighter for a bumper wheat crop.
and if conditions are favorable dur
ing the next six weeks the farmers
will reap big returns on their time

A ride across the fertile and beau-(

The difference in the way the Liberty rides and drives is unmistakable.
The difference makes itself felt in the first fifteen minutes of driving.
It is a difference, for one thing, in steadiness a steadiness that holds the
road as well with one passenger in the tonneau as with three.
It is a difference in power performance in ease of control at all time
without apparent effort.
These superiorities are so marked as to be astonishing even to seasoned "
judges of motor car values.
They are so evident that we know of no better way to win your preference
than to let the Liberty assert its own difference and superiority in a dem
onstration ride.
