The Importance of Education.

Education is so essential factor in
every direction in which we move, that
to be without it, is to be deprived of the
greatest blessing ever conferred upon
man. 1t is only by intelligence that
man can protect himself. To be with
out education is to be like a block of
marble, in the rude, rough unpublished
condition of the quarry. TO possess
education is to have his block of marble
relieved by skillful artisans of il dross
and impurities and unsightliness. Thus
education in its effects upon noble
mind shows its capabilities and renders
1t promotive of the truest ends and
aims of temporal existence, TO he sue
ceeded by an eternity of glory.
How often has the humblest indi.
yidual been rescued frsm a career of
ignorance by the polishing hand of
wisdom? Man is possessed of certain
intuitive faculties, which, subjected to
educational processes tit him to adorn
his station and invest it with abound
ing credit and renown. There is no
occupation in which men may engage
that may not be rendered more profit
able by intelligent thought and labor.
We must be educated for our work i'm
order to compete for the prize which is
easily snatched from the ignorant.
Every spare moment of time should be
devoted to Intellectual culture. Let us
use our natural gifts i'm proper mali
