Docs IfPay 10 Take a College
Cnnnhe2

A prominent lawyer Of this state
said to a young man about to begin
the study Of law at the Univenityo
Missouri, "By all means take your
academic degree first. twenty-five
years hence an academic education
will be as common as a high school
education is today. The boy who
takes his professional coursewithont
first knowing something about Latin,
German, French. Political Economy,
Logic, Ethics and many other things
in the academic course will be left
In the race"
But said the young man, "lt will
cost too much" This has been the
halting place Of many young men
who would like to have a college
education before beginning q pfo.
fessionai career. Let us examinethis
objection and determine its validity.
To stick to the boy with whom we
started. His four years college
course at the University Of Missouri,
which is probably the best college in
the Middle West need not cost him
more than $500 and 81, 900 If a
liberal allowance.
II is not possible to reduce the re-
sultsof college education to dollars
and cents. Butthe following quota.
ton from an article in the November,
1898, Forum, "Does a College Edu-
cation Pay2" by ]. G. Jones, gives
at least some basis for conclusions:
"Appleton's Cyclopedia Of Ameri-
can Biography" contains IN rouhd
numbers 1900 names. OF that
number a few over 5000 are names
of college and university graduates;
that,is 1000 Of the LOCO approx
imately) or one in thirty cent out by
colleges and universities have reach
ed some distinction. This proportion
seems pitifully small, and our case
seems already4ost. But only ohe in
every | 800 of the non graduateshas
attained distinction; while one in
every thirty Of the college graduates
has been equally fortunate. That is
TO say the boy VITO takes time to pre-
pare himself for his work by submit-
ting himself to the discipline furnish.
Fed by the college or university,
increases his chances ofsuccess fifty
kfold.'

a Most Brutal Crime

The last weeks papers giy'
the sickening details of one O
tho most heinous, brutal crimes that
has ever been committed by demons
| IN human garb. Oracle Gibson, Q
little, poverty-stricken, fatherless
eight.year.old girl was the innocent
victim. Nick Nydum employed The
little girl to nurse his baby, with the
understanding that she was to return
to her mothers home on Sunday
Sunday came but Oracle failed to
go home, and her mother started for
the Nydum place on Monday, July
20, to ascertain the reason. Halfway
there, says the Stoddard county pa
pcrs, she met Nick Nydum drivingi in
a wagon in the bottom ofthe bed was
her child in q semi-conscious condi.
ton. Nydum reported that the child
was suffering from a cOngestive chill
The child was taken home. Around
her body was a quilt. As the mother
unrapped this covering, the truth
flashed upon her from outward evi.
dcnces of the real condition of the
child. A doctor was summoned who
verified the truth of the mothers
fears. The child fever spoke after
she reached home, and only the
means that escaped her lips told
more eloquently than words Of the
horrible suffering she was undergo.
ing. She died in an unconscious
state but the bruises and lacerations
on her bodytold the story. Nick,
Tom and Bob Nydum, and William
McComb have all been placed be-
hind the bars. Just what kind oi
punishment should be inflicted on
such brutes, we do not feel compe.
tent to answer.
Since the above was put in type
the daily papers report that an Of
fort was made the last of last week
to lynch the Nydums, but the sher,
iff frustrated their plans by spirit,
ing them away from Bloomfield.
