THOUGH! FOR TODAY
A
man
who is not ashamed of himself
need not be ashamed of his eady condition.—
Daniel Webster.
Why Not?
Some American tailors sign their
namei with a cross. A war vessel
is a great machine shop, with boil­
ers, engines, wireless system, tele­
phones, and electric devices of all
kinds. Why could we not follow
what is done in some factories, as at
Cincinnati, for instance? Why could
we not make a contract enlistment in
the navy which would guarantee to
a young man entering the navy a
couple of hours of education a day
under competent instructors? There
are some seven hundred men on a
war vessel with three or four instruct­
ors on board, and with the addition
ol first-class correspondence work it
would be possible for a young man
to go into the navy for two or three
years and come out with an educa­
tion and the beginning either of a
profession or of some kind of an
industrial education, says an editor
iai in Collier’s. We could advertise
—’‘Go to the navy and get an edu­
cation; go to the army and get an
education.”
These young men
would go back into the ranks of the
working people of our country and
form a great reserve for our army
and navy. This plan would cost
merely the pay of the instructors,
and limitless is what it might accom­
plish for efficiency in army and
navy. The desertions from the army
today are not surprising. What in­
spiration is there? There have been
organized at fomeof our universities
fine corn spondence schools. Wis
c insin has over three hundred and
eighty courses This whole machin
ery could be used on the battleships,
and the men who take the lessons
wo ild pay lor tire work. Instruc­
tion, help, and a little inspiration
would do the rest.
Seek the Truth.
Many centurii.s ago a c<-rtTtin wise
m m said, * 'Ye shall know the tenth,
and the trulli will make you free."
Today we realize its perlinacy
For is not evil the result of igu<-
rance and is not education along re
ligious and nu r.d lines our one and
o tlv hope of alleviation?
Education is the discovery of
truth
The world has witnessed
some great transitions in the forward
march ot liberty and progress. The
philosophy of Greece and Rome
flourished in an atmosphere of sei-
vility. In those days, the sun rose
over wealth, splendor and wisdom,
but one half of the people were
slaves; it never set on universal
peace, f>r there was "war and ru
mors of war." There was -famine
and pestilence in the land, and in
fact the world generally was in an
unsettled condition. Today slavery
and warfare have been practically
abolished and the world is seeking
further emancipation from this con
dition, and freedom ol opportunity
is the battle cry. Men have ceased
to claim that all are born free and
equal, but all are clamoring for equal

Some people urge that a radical
