Attorney William Plero returned
Wednesday from East Liverpool
where he attended q meeting OF the
stockholders of the Pleasant Heights

way to the lands Of the Pleasant
Heights company. Several weeks ago
a contract was signed with the railway
company whereby the latter company
was to receive $4,000 FROM the former
for the building of the line within q
certain period. Neither side kept the
agreement. The land company repre-
sentatives claim that they would have
kept theirs had the line been built.
but 1t was not, and they have never
been called upon to fulfill their part of
the contract.
ately the North Side Land COM
pany, which bought portion of the
land owned by the Pleasant Heights
company with the understanding that
the railway was to be built, insisted on
the city council that they compel the
company to build the line.
Telephone communication has been
had between the East Liverpool and
Canton parties interested in the build
ing Of the line and 1T was virtually
agreed that the Pleasant Heights COM
pany put up s2,50O and the North Side
Land company and others interested

THE PURPOSE OF EDUCATION.

Education in the truest sence is q
word that may fifty describe any or
ganized scheme of mental drill or dis
cipline that will draw out" or devel-
op the mental powers Of children. The
true function Of the public school and
college is not to fit young men and
young women directly for the. bread
winning pursuits. 1t is true. as Prof
Triggs says, that "the college grad
uate has no place in the commercial
world" No college could be organized
on such scale that 1t could give him
"a place in the commercial world" so
vast and dissimilar are the activities
of modern and industrial commercial
endeayor.
But the college and the school can
supply broad culture and a wide
mental equipment that will enable the
graduate to make place for himself
in the commercial world" "The alb
ility to do is more important than the
ability to read" says Prof. Triggs 1t
has been found, however. that the abll-
ity to read-wh.ch is the key to vast
storehouses of knowledge generally
proceeds and stimulates the ability ito
