Except Sunday Telephone 81; News 82 TODAY'S CROSS WOfeD PUZZLE (JICOUG10 PUTNAM, Killtur ami Pulilinher BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY Irust ia the Lord, ami do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Psalms 37:3. A Colossal Waste Nothing is appreciated unless it is earned. When anything is made easy, interest soon lapses. That which comes without effort is seldom valued. It is the struggle to acquire that gives life its zest, and makes anything worth while. These rather trite truisms probably explain why higher education today fails to educate that is it fails to make the recipients think, or if they do think, makes them think alike destroying originality. Education can be obtained without serious effort or struggle or sacrifice and therefore is unappreciated. We have built up huge higher educational institutions at taxpayers expense, on the paternalistic theory that the state should do for the adult what it does for children, provide them with every possible advantage in the way of educational frills, book and technical learning without cost to or reciprocal effort upon the student's part. I Ho great increase in attendance resulting, an increase artificially stimulated by careful campaigns and persistent propaganda on the part of already overcrowded state institu tions, each branch of which competes with every other branch, and each institution with the other, has forced revolution in educational methods along lines of quantity production. The factory methods of Henry Ford are utilized. The individual is submerged in the mass, standardized, and meciiaiuzeu. f.acn instructor working under tension, aucls a bolt or a nut as the student passes on the moving educational belt, until an immense amount of unassimilated knowledge and useless rubbage is assembled and labelled an education by S. commercialized institution. Along with the fallacy that all men are created equal, when no two are, we have imbibed that other illusion of democracy that education is synonymous with intelligence, and all that is necessary is to fill a fifth-rate mind with text book stuff to raise it to first class. So we tax ourselves to the limit to cram morons with book-learning on the theory that we are making silk purses out of sows ears, spoiling thereby good laborers and mechanics, fine hewers of wood and drawers of water, to make poor parasites for the profes sions and pitiful failures with aspirations absurdly out of proportion to ability. Higher education as we know it today, is a colossal waste, waste of lime, of energy, of money that might be far better spent in other ways and probably does more harm than good, creating discontent, dissatisfaction and unrest among the unfit. It is questionable whether the country is really better off for those who seek knowledge always find it and the self taught is better taught Hum the factory product. It has not made for improved citizenship or higher standards. With more education there is more bigotry, more fanaticism, more in)iil(i-;iiw'i' morn rei'iilalion. more interference, more nnlprnalisni. and less democracy, less liberty and less reason than in the nation's history. The more educated we become, the worse off we are as a nation, for the fewer thinkers we develop despite the increase in population. HORIZONTAL Vessel fop furnishing artificial Jluht 1).

Tins existence lTlioii My Ma trmoniAl Vacation by Violet Dare taxuijo tiuu:ais I snid that I would, and took the unto she gave me, wondering If this particular matrimonial tangle was going to straighten itself out immediately and hoping that it would! I was grateful to Nathalie for ap predating my help In getting her out o the tangle in which her Jilt ing for Phil Lelund had led her. but in helping her I had got my self into a tannic almost iia bad. Nancy." she said to me, as we walked through the park. "Tell me did my husband really put a de tective on Phil Iceland's trail, sua- pecting blackmail? Becau.se, iC lie did " She didn't finf.sn the sentence, but she didn't have to. I know that she was going to say "If ho dill, he Htill cares for me." Ami I knew too thai if ahc thuuglit lie earod for her she would forgive nil tho things he had done to hurt her his going around Willi other wo men, and neglecting .her, huinlliut ing her by letting everyone see how little ho cared whether she was hurt or not. And because I was determined patch up that marriage, once more I told n white lie. Of course lie did," I said. "Ho heard that I was a friend of yours ind came to me about it, and I told him that everything could be straightened out very quietly." Then you saw him. Tell mo. Nancy, how does he look? Is ho well? You see, since he and I de cided to separate, and I wont to .Mother's to live, I haven't seen him And of course I wonder about him." i "Of cour.se you do!" I agreed, ' And without saying anything to very few "But her about it, I r solved that I would manage to have them meet I wished that my own matrlnion- Jnl affairs were as easy to straight en out a other people's promised to be! I readied home to find a mes sage from Nick, nuking me tu phone him. When I talked with him, ho wanted me to have tea with him that afternoon. ".My wife wants me to dine with her this evening," lie told me gloomily, when I met him at half past four. "How delightful! That's ; good sign, isn't It?" 'I'd have thought ho r weeks ago," he answered now well, I'm not so sure." 'You're like everyone else n soon as you get what you want you don't want it," I exclaimed Don t bo absurd. Of course you want to dine with her." "But well, since I've known you " Having him think he cared for me was no part of my program. When I first went to New York to live, after my husband had gone off to the other side of the world without caring what became of me, I was ready to amuse myself nt everybody's expense. Having a handsome young chap like Nick In love with me would have suited me perfectly. But now I didn't care for that program at all. I wanted to send Nick straight back to his wife, even though she had divorced him. "Since you've known me, you've found out, I hope, that I'm in love with my husband," I said, looking off over his head into tho distance "People, don't even suspect it until they know mo really well, and be gin to understand me. But you're ho sympathetic that of courso you've realized It.' ' Nick stared at in as If ho thought I'd gone out of my senses. "But I didn't even know that you had a husband till I'd known you quite a while," ho protested. "I thought you were Miss Larra hee, instead of Mrs." "Yes, I know that I shouldn't have let you think so, of course; you must forgive me I didn't mean to deceive you " "Oh, that was all right don't feel bad about it; I er want to dance?" How many .situations those three words have saved! And how ab surd It Is that when two people reach a moment when they can't talk, they can go dancing oft', with tho man's arm around tho girl. and not think anything about It! I hid a dinner engagement, and wanted to go homo early, but I stayed with Nick until he promised mo that he'd dine with his wife. "Though I don't see why she wants me," he protested. "She rushed off to Paris and got a di vorce, saying that she didn't care anything about mo, and now hero she is, writing me and 'phoning me and urging me to come to seo her." "Didn't I tell you that she would realize alter she saw you with me that she cared for you?" I remind ed him. I dined with Frank Harrison who, to my delight, kept telling me what a fine woman my mother was. Kvidently my little plan to interest him in her instead of In mo was working beautifully. . We went to the theater, and then home. On the way we drove past the apartment house where Nath alie Jordan lived, in her mother's apartment. And as I glanced out, I saw a man opening the big front door downstairs. It was her husband! Tomorrow A Threat for the Fu inn. BRINGING UP FATHER By Geonje McMnnus KNOW "WHOSE BUNDLE.
