Professor P. Hauge, ot the Pacific

cation is being given," Professor
Hauge went on to say, "is but the
scuifolu upon which the carpenter
stands, the teachers are the car
penters and the students the ma
terials. It is during the high
school and college ugos of the
youug people that their character
is formed and It Is during this age
that tlioy should be under the cor
rect Influence. The world bas a
standing advertisement, 'Wanted
a Man.' Too often a pigmy an

In lite is health, education and re

greatest."

ber was a talk of Miss Ida Twee-
ton, county health nurse, who
