tingents Of the active army, thirteen
contingents Of reserve and four OF
militia Of the first class; all these

RIGHT USE OF EDUCATION.
why Success Often May 10 Attributgg to
Persistent Exortion.


Education. like any commodity. Is
of little or no value to the individual
unless put to its proper use.
Many n young man thinks he has
finished his education when he grad
yates from the school or college. He
never made greater mistake. On the
contrary he has only just been taught
the elementary principles upon which
true education Is founded. for when
we speak OF school education we refer
to that kind Of instruction which tends
to the development of general culture.
The education which Is of the most
value to MS can only be acquired from
the experience we receive In after life
or In the vocation to which we nave
been called, DO II that of II business or
professional life. We have seen the
farce of this. for some of our most sue
cessful men have been those whose
early educational advantages were
few II any, and their success may he
attributed to their own persistent ex-
crtlon. I am not Understanding the
value OF college education. In the
above illustration the point l want to
convey Is that after receiving 10 what
Use do we make OF IL.
There Is n saying that every man
builds his own monument" This Is
certainly true, but the building or that
monument depends greatly upon the
material we use. Much OF the mate
rlal which men use Is so full OF selfish
ness and pride that there Is no stabil'
| ity In IT, and as soon as we examine
the structure Il falls to pieces before
u.s. The man who puts into his mate
rial such moral qualities rs self-deninl,
charity and patience. the longer we
look at that monument the better we
| become.
We need to refine and educate our
! selves In order TO become character
| builders and useful members or so
| ciety. Education also enables us 10
grasp opportunities. Mr.. snmuei
| Smiles, who has written "Self Help
SAWS 'mcn who are resolved to find

For example. were II not for the War

mowers as Il great general, or his char.
acter as n patriot. This example VIII
serve to illustrate many Of Ike ma
ture where men have become great by
being prepared to grasp the opport"'
mites that come within their reach.
There are opportunities open to ALL
and no matter how humble our sphere
In life may be, IL we but use the tai
ents which we have to make the 'pes'
use OF the education we possess.
1t Is therefore not merely the school
or college education that make men

experience. May each one Of us so use
the talents we have that when we be-

work. and build for ourselves char

hind may take our example from MS
