THE FIELD OF EDUCATION.
Chauncey NJ. Depew Says that None

Chaunccy NJ. Depew says that None
Other Gives More Promise.
Chauncey NJ. Depew, on being asked
the question. "what do you consider
the most promising field for the young
man?" replied:
"There are too many fields equally
promising to permit Of excepting judg.
ment In favor of one. need only
name n few In which the promise Of
the century is large both In opportunity
for wisdom ana wealth. The field Of
education for one, Of politics for an.
other. Army and navy, journalism
and law, agriculture and manufacture
all of these are about to broaden and
develop nightly. None other, 1t seems,
gives more promise than that Of edu-
cation. and l venture to say that our
young men who are students now will
lead the world in scholarship and the
true qualifications Of the great educa-
tors Il quarter of a century hence. l
speak of this field first. because we
owe all we have to the wise use we
have made us n nation of the time we
have had to acquire knowledge. Our
every advance and every victory Is due
to the young men who studied we'll,
and the men who taught them well. 1t
Is all traceable to desire to obtain
right understanding through the most
devoted study and inquiry.
"In our new sphere as world power
large dignity will attach to each Of the
constituent elements Of our greatness
Our men of learning, important as
their position is to-day, will hold still
more enviable places In the public es-
teen. Schools and colleges will -four
ish in great number, and every position
connected with them will be both hon
orable and remuneratlve. II l We're a
young man and felt that could do
work in this direction, would struggle
to be one Of the great figures In this
profession. would set out to make
myself wise. SO well balanced In judg-
ment and versed In the growing needs
of a growing empire. that would be
indispensable"
