The address OF Miss Patterson was
one of the best things that has ever
been heard in the college. She spoke
on the subject Have you paid your
Tuition Her theme was the great
cost of things for our existence and
being of today and what have we
done, what are we going to do to
pay them. A sample lesson in geo.
graphy that a child will learn in a
half hour has cost time, life and
value. Parents have labored and
have been denied that their children
might nave advantage and know
ledge. A Newspaper costs but FIVE
cents but in it is the cablegram of
the war in South Africa. The max
ing of the paper costs an immense
amount of money and yet is given to
us for so little. Four thousand bat
ties have been fought for the privi-
lege of free speech and what have.
you paid and what will you pay for
all this.
The address was much liked by all
who heard it. .--..s
