IS IT WORTH WHILE?
Thla la tha aeaaon of the year when
many a boy begins to look with dread
upon his books, studies and tha con
finement or tha school room. That
Is a story aa old at tha history ol
education, tor nearly any normal,
healthy boy would rather be out In
the woods, fishing along the river or
swimming "in the ole swimmin'
hole" than sitting stupidly Inactive
In a close school room. All this Is
natural and Inevitable and it only re
mains for the kindly encouragement
of teacher and parent to keep the ac
tive American boy on the right track.
In Germany the stern schoolmaster
sees to it that all ara present and
there Isn't halt the fun in German
schools that the American boy en
joys. But that isn't the point Just here
Every spring a number of youths
completing the eighth grade or high
school get It Into their heads that
they have gone far enough, and with
tha first sfga of a whisker the Idea
begins to seep In that any additional
effort spent In school la a waste of
timet and money. Why should they
be In school, they think, when Jobs
paying two and three dollars a day,
mora or less, are beckoning them?
Wa have seen that force to be
mora compelling In taking boys from
their studies than the necessity of
helping to provide a livelihood for a
large family or tor a widowed moth
er. There Is generally some way
out if the right kind of stuff la back
In the boy's bead.
(Seldom does the boy under 1 8 rea
Hie what a superior advantage the
educated man has In this world over
the entrained brain. Most of them,
like the slesta-tndolgtng Mexican,
dreams nnder his banana tree where
his father makes the living and lets
today take care of Itself with never
a worry about the fnture. Never
was a better Illustration afforded of
the value of a colleire or hlsh school
tralnln? than Is at hand rl?ht now
where hundreds and thousands of
college graduates are being soneht
by the government at salaries rang
ing from fl.200 to $10,000 a year to
take charge of Important work in
connection with the war. Men with
an accredited hlsh school diploma
are In demand at salaries as high as
I8.BO0 a year.
But they must he trained, efficient
men. and many a waster has been
heard to make the remark that "if I
had enough education I would try for
one of those Jobs."

By thla time It is too late. Their
school days are over and but very
few can ever pick up from where
they left off and catch up with their
wiser brethern. It is the sad lesson
that they learn too late.
Aside from the fact that every day
spent In school Is valued at some
thing like $11 up to the time of fin
ishing high school, and more than
that for a college degree, the getting
of an education ta worth the effort
from the standpoint of the added
enjoyments that one gets out of life.
To the boy who Is about to commit
homicide to a future auecessful ca
reer by cutting his education off at
the pockets, a word of caution Is
given. A decision now may mean
the difference between a $1,000 Job
and a $5,000 Job at 40 years of age.
If yon buy out of town and I buy

their realization of their national aspirations and of
the goal toward which they were really striving
was ngue and indiitinct But step by step they
struggled oaward and upward toward a light which
sjrew clearer as their eyes and minds slowly opened
to its significance. Today, at a result of their strug
gles and their sacrifices, we possess and enjoy our
priceless American institutions.
J These mitilutiom must be preserved. The
structure to laboriously reared in these one hiav

if we do not spring (o its defense with every atom
of our energy and determination. This it not a
