Let those without opportunity Of st.
tending school or college. remember that
the world of knowledge and the highest
enjoyment lie before them in books. To
get them, many a young man has only to
lop Oft some useless indulgence, az Of to,
bacco. and in that way convert that which
Is useless, if not n%oxious, into mental en-.
joyment and power. Some think they
must have teachers. A good living teach
er is a great aid in attaining knowledge ;
but a good book is also a good teacher,
from which desired knowledge may be OBJ,
tanned by application. See the list Of us i.

If you can afford to have the Encyclote.
dia Britdanica, you will have therein q
grand epltoms of human knowledge.

good substitute. If you have no special
attractions, take up historical works, and

THE SCHOOL LAW,

We want to give it a fair trial. If ye
will putourselyes in full sympathy Whit,
good can be accomplished. 10 this mat,
ter, however, we must learn to labor and
wait. Constant effort is demanded. Our
school system will be just what we make
it. Our county already has gone ahead
of the adjoining ones. Let US keep NOV.
ing on. We need better school houses
and an increased number Of wide wake
and go-ahcad teschers. If ice teachers
and school officers fuily determine to
raise the standard of education in the
county it will be done. Let US work 10.
gether to build up our educational inter>
eSts, our farming Interests ana our manu-.
featuring Interests. The shortest aud su.
rest way to reach these things is the edu.
cation and elevation Of the masses. This
is the great work Of free schools.
