the great wheel of nanal labor,
and struggle with the vast mul>
titude of the Ignorant that is
to-day all over our country
The value of "Education" is in
estimable. It has been and is to
day the secret avenue to success,
of many poor boy.
BY the means of education
many of our great men have
reached the high and exalted
positions in all stations of life.
1t has brought this great coun-
try of ours to its present state OF
enlightenm ent and development.
To begin life we need an
education. We cannot enter in
to any kind OF business Or poss>
es any distinct vocation without
education.
Any man Or woman with this
acquirem ent aud instruction
cannot enjoy the pleasurs of the
world as they should, and are
merely drones to the advance
ment Of civilization. Without
an education we are nothing in
the eyes of the world, if we are
fortunate enough to possess one
we can then help ourselves and
our neighbors. If we are un~
educated we feel very much en-
barrassed when ushered into the
presence Of learned and educat>
ed mel and women we feel as
though we are in the wrong
place and everyone is laughing
at us because of our awkward
ness. 1t is within the reach of
every one that would have it;
the poor as we'll as the rich.
But it cannot be obtained only
by those who earnestly seek and
desire it, and b. devotlng then>
selves to hard study.
Youth is time to accustom
both mind a.1d body to the right
methods of lite, and every one
strive to secure an edu~
cation when in their youthful
days, and while the opportuni-
ties present themselves to us
and are more abundant.
The true happiness and real
usefulness of each individual of /
every community; Wheth + it be
i'll country or city depends large
ly upon the way and manner,
and to the extent the youth of
our country is educated.
Young men and ladies let us
as one who has seen and experts
enced the great need of an edu,
cation, implore you to try to i'm
prove every opportunity as they
present themse YES to us, for
TO Gay can never be to NOR
row." We should try to learn
how to appreciate the value of
Al educ alton; for our country is
every day for some one
educated to fill the exhaulted
positions in her arena, and if
We prepare ourselves while
then when we become
hen and women we will feel
proud Of the fact We can be of
ONE use to our country, for
lie who loves not his own
country eau love nothing.

The term education comes to
us to day arrayed in the mantle
of great significance, and is the
crying necessity and want that
falls upon our hearing every day
more forcibly from every in
habited spot Of this grand old
sphere that is to~day striving to
reach the highest point Of exis-
lance.
Education is most essential
endowment of lite to man or
woman.
It is a faculty within itself.
Education is not something
added to the character of a lady
or gentleman, distinct from it,
self, but it is rather the innate
qualities induced or drawn out
and cultivated by a systematic
course of storing of the mind by
the cultivation of the memory,
which is to some extent after
wards retained and can be reads
lily and conscienciously repro>
duced.
Education or discipline has
a modifying influence On the
innate qualities and character
of man; and is, where it has
been implanted, discernable in
every station OF life from the
lowest to the highest.
1t is one of the greatest ele
ments that fits us tor the duties
OF life, and its object is not to
teach men to be great scholars,
but to live colnplet 'ly morally,
Intellectually and physically. 1t
has been said by one that GA
good education is but little more
han the formation and growth
ot good habits.
Education is the only thing
hat fully equips and qualities
is to launch ourselves out upon
his bustliug world of ours, as
rue and competent citizens, for
| man or woman throw1 upon
he stage of life without an edu>
,ation, is as a ship without a
udder II a temptuous sea.
Education elevates the mind
o a higher plain of thought and
living, than We would naturally
-ttaln if we passed, not, this
lement of life.
1t prepasses and fits us to oc~
upy the high stations of lite in {
he business world and social ,
i1cies.
Education fills our souls with
hat self confidence and encollr :
cement that enables us to over {
ONE the difficulties and opposi> !
ions of life, that tend to obstruct :,
ur way in the efforts of trying
} become useful men and wo>
len to ourselves, to our sur> i
friends and country q
Education reveals to us new t
lcts and new ideas every day :
lat we live. 1t teaches us the S
ay of knowledge, responsibility
and culture. It
clips US to become digin6ed, t
Id affords us very many adj a
lntages in life. e
1t lifts the heavy labor and =
il from the shoulders of many,
ho, if they habit not, would !
we to put their shoulder to .
