THE BEST EDUCATION.

In Mr.. McKinley's tour through the
South we cannot recall one fault idea
he gave expression to In the many
speeches he made under varying cir
cumstances. tn some Texas students

What we want more than anything
else, whether we be white or black, Is

II you will just learn how to do one
thing that Is useful better than any.
body else can do that one thing. you
will never be out OF a job.
Regarding these words the Atlanta
Journal says:
The value OF technical education Is
coming to be recognized fully and
this strong Endorsement OF It by the
President OF the United States shows
that he is In touch with the best spirit
OF the time.
President Mckinley had, few rcduca.

many other men who have become
eminent In our country, he was born

BEFORE IT Is TOO LATE.

II you have gray haired mother
In the old home far away,
Sit down and write the letter
You put of day by day;
Don't wait until her tired steps
Reach Heavens pearly gate
But show her that you think Of her
Before II is too late.
II you've tender message
Or d loving word to say,
Don't wait till you forget 1t,
But whisper it to-day.
Who knows what bitter memories
May haunt you II you waltz
So make your loved ones happy
Before 1t Is too late.
We live but in the present,
The future Is unknown
Tomorrow is mystery,
Today is all our own.
The chance that fortune lends to us
May vanish while we wait,
So spend your lifs's rich treasure
Before it is too late.
The tender words unspoken,
The letter never sent,
The long forgotten messages,
The wealth of love unspent.
For these some hearts are breaking,
For these some loved ones wait
SO show them that you care for them
Before 1t Is too late.

"GEr AND GET!"
Groenvillc Times.

Groenvilic Times.
The people who make their mark In
the world are the ones who "get up
and get." The old proyerb which has
come down to US from a past aye Is
the key to success in every walk In
life. The men who have attained
the highest distinction in the world
were those who possessed this quality
10 a pre.eminent degree. The people
who lack snap and vim-wh0 are
easily discouraged and have an aver.
sion to hard work-will, however
highly endowed by nature, be left be.
hind in this progressive age.
Young man, you are standing at
the base OF the mountain which
thousands with less favorable sur.
rOundings have ascended and render.
ed their names immortal. II you de.
sire to follow in their footsteps and
write your name on the roll Of fame
by the side Of theirs, you must "get
up and get" The man who leads a
life of inglorious ease will never
achieve success. Idlencss Is the par.
ent of vice and crime; the fcrmentcr
OF all the corruption in the human
heart. Industry is the queen of
every virtue the philosophers stone
that turns everything IL touches into
gold.
Young man, set your mark high
then "get up and get," and you will
reach the goal OF your ambition. Ir
this busy, bustling age, lOafers are ;
nuisance. Improve your time b!
strengthing aud developing all tn,
noble powers with which God ha
endowed you.
