new privilege, but rather doubtful on
the public school question.
His small dog accompanies him as
far as the law allows. He will soon
be fast asleep and dreaming on his
hard bench.
Among those children that 90 to
school are the men and women of the
future, who will solve our problems
as they arise.
Among them is the future man who
will carry on the fight for justice and
true American equality.
Among them are the men and wom-
en- who will fight the battles of the
weak against the strong.
The great soldier whom the country
will need some day is carrying his

The country owes great debt to
the teachers whose conscientious and
illrewarded work prepares these chill
dren for the tasks ahead of them.
You owe devotion and loyalty to the
public school.

THE FARMER CAN DICTATE.

While. cotton mills were declaring
dividends as high as 40 per cent, the
farmer was selling his cotton at a
price below the actual cost of produc-
tion, and paying as much for the
cotton goods he consumed Jas when
cotton sold for ten cents, says the
Planters Journal.
There was surplus on the market
at that time.
There is deficit now.
This deficit can only be relieved
and the mills supplied alone by the
farmer this year.
The mills will be compelled to
have this stock or stop.
They can get it from no other
source.
They must have it. and it will be
with the farmer who makes it, to fix
the price, instead of the six men in
the cotton exchange in New York to
fix it as they have been doing for
many yars.
1t has come the farmers way at
last, and he should make the most if
it and say:
Here is my cotton, which you
can have at my price, and if you do
not want it, you need not take it. /
can as we'll afford to hold my cotton
as the Wall street speculator can afford
to 60 out of business, and the mills,
with their millions Of capital, stand
idle while costly machinery rusts
out. -
This is the situation, and if the
farmers fail to improve it they should
not complain If the Wall street mani
pulator put them OH the block and sell
them to the lowest bidder.

VALUE OF AN EDUCATION.

The experienced man who had an
education in his youth will cheerfully
testify to the value of that high priv
Ilege, and the experienced man who
by force Of circumstances was denied
early educational privileges will not
fail to advise his young friend tc
grasp the opportunity for college
training. Both classes of men appre-
ciate the value of an education, the
one because he knows what it has done
for him and the other because he
knows that men who are denied the
privilege Of an early educatoin are re-
quired, says the Commoner, to face Sc
rious embarrassments and obstacles.
Wilmott said that education is the
apprenticeship of life.'' Franklin
said: IF man empties his purse
into his head no man can take it
away from him. An investment in
knowledge always pays the best inter
est. = Ruskin said that education,
briefly is leading the human mind and
soul to what is right and best land to
make what is best out of them, and
these two objects are always obtaina-
BILE together and by the same means
The training which makes men hap
piest in themselves also makes them

cause he is to make shoes, nails, or
pins, but because he is man.
